PRESIDENT OF THE PEoPLE.-The
Hon. Mr. Irwin, in the course ofhis speech
at public dinner given in Phllldelph
on the anniversary of Westinghouse
birthday. made the following remark:
IT had been said that President Tyler
was without a party in Congress. If
this were so, he (Mr. j. was glad of IL.
This was what General Harrison desired
to he. Gen. Washington was without "a
party IN Congress-he desired none-he
was the President of the people. Every
executive should be so. We have had a
little too much Of Presidents relying on
their train bands in the halls of Congress.
The executive and legislative departments
should keep each within lis proper sphere,
cooperating only for the public veal. If
Legislative faction should defeat measures
promolive of public interest, and sugges-
ted by the Executive, he would find sup
port ana cbunlellallce from lilc people.
lie was glad, therefore, that Mr.. Tyler
was not party President, and hoped he
would always consider himself the Prcsi-
dent Of the peop!e.--So long as he did
so, and acted accordingly, he (Mr. J
would give to his administration cheer
full support. individuals, probably from
the sudden impulse OF excil' ment, had
denounced the President as traitor.
What, John Tyler IA tralor!-a native Of
The land of Washington, and je fferson, and
Madison, and Monroe, and IIarrison-lhe
son OF revolutionary sires, IL traitor, I'M
possible. He had heard of rc5ais of that
name-one, black smith, some centuries
ago, had with his hammer knocked out
the brains of an insnlenl minion of IA Brit
ish tyrant. John Tyler's father had, like
George Washington. rehellch against he
oppression of George the Third. and the
President himself may have rebrled a.
gainst the tyranny of fiction and the des-
potsm of party, but no drop of traitors
blood coursed through his veins. lie had
never violate his allegiance to the consli-
tuition, or the people. No, never.
