THE PRESIDENT

The Clay Wing papers are maddencd almost to fu-
ry, because the Democrats will not be so dishonest
as to follow in their track and pour out uncaedfor
abuse upon the President. They seem to presume
us equally destitute of principle with themselves and
not capable OF commenting honesty wherever it may
be found. They should not Judge Others by Their
own depraved hearts.
We go for correct principles-for honesty of pur
Pose-for integrity and consistency wherever it may

PRESIDENT TYLER.

BULwER very forcibly inquiries, what sublimel
spectacle can be witnessed than the man who car
stand in the breach Of universal public censure, with
all the fashions of opinion disgracng him in the
thoughts of ookerson with the tide of obloquy beating
against his breast, and the fingers Of the mighty
bned many pointing him to scorn-and, worse thar
all, having none to whisper word of defence pal
liatve to his revilers; but bravcy giving his naked
head to the storm, because he knows himself to be
virtuous in his purpose.
In almost precisely this position has our patriotic
Chief Magistrate voluntarily placed himself, to pro
mote the general good For his noble acts of self
DEVOTION he has been denounced by the inscriptions
political partsans of the day. as trator every vile
and opprobrous epthet has been unsparingly heapec
upon him, that could be quoted from the vocabulary
of slang and vulgarity. A traitor John Tyler a
TRAITOR and to whom! To WHAT To the old re-
publican party of '98, To the Je1ersonian school
in which he was educated from his boy hoodi To his
political creed so Often clearly and undis
gusedly proclaimed to the world Never 1t is a
foul libel upon his stainless name.
From the days of Thomas Jefferson down to the
present hour, every man in nation who has bold
ly and unhesitatingy stood up in defence of Truth
Equality and Impartial Justice, has been denounced
in the most dsgracefu terms has been subject to the
vilest abuse from the venal the profgate, and the
corrupt MIR. Tyler, therefore, does not stand alone
in this respect
But in another he stands proudly pre-eminent.-
Where-but in him-can you find another President
hoOIy breaking aSunOcr the cnainS OF party popular
ty, separating himself from his protsssed political
friends exposing himself to the bitterest oboquy that
party malice could devise, at the call of duty -
Where, but in him, do you find instance of such
sell sacrificing devotion upon the altar of the COM
mon good' Echo answers-,chere?
The Madsonian, the official organ of the admins
traon, declares most positively that there be
question raised as to the purpose and position of Mr..
Tyler; that there is not and never can be, leaven,
touch of federalism in his administrations that he
stands upon the old Jefersonan platform, and bears
the Constitution, with the Republican construction
of the fundamental law, aoft in his hands. The Ma
disonan says:
"No matter what the future may exhibit, of sue
cess unsuccess-no matter whether his enemies
shall eventually triumph-(which q, forbid pos
terity will be poud of the name of the unerrified
Republican, and history, at least, will do him justice
He not and will not, for any consideration of IA
vor, affection, fear persuasion or threat, pause in
the contest or shrink from discharge of his duty.
This duty bids him bear the Republican flag to victory
or perish in the fight-and il ,ciN be done"
What then is the duty of the democracy Ought
they tooppose the man who defends their measures
and advocates their principles
