One objection alleged by the Clay Wings against
the recent We is, that it based on the in
expediency of the Little Bill" and not its I'M
constitutionaty. In reply, Nlessrs Wise and Smith
of this State in Congress, have pointed to veto by
General Washington, grounded simply on inexped-
ency There seems to be nothing in the Constitution
to Justify the objection to Mr.. Tylers last Veto.
The words of the Constitution eff he approve "a
BILL he shall sign it but if not he shall return it
with his objections" &c.
Inexpediency may be as just ground of disappro-
val unconstitutonality Suppose Congress should
pass act, in time of peace, to raise army Of
100000 regulars. Such an act would be perfectly
stitutional, for the Constitution expressly authorizes
Congress "to raise and support srmiesn yet surely 1t
will be admitted that the President would not be
bound to sign such bill.
Again. the Constitution in reference to the Presi-
dental duties, says: "He shall, from time TO time
give to Congress information OF the state OF the Union
and recommend to their consideration such measures
a. he shall Judge necessary and eIpedient" Now,
since ii is has duty to recommend "such measures
he shall Judge necessary and erpedeni," would be
consistent or reasonable to compel HIM 10 ratily
measures which he might deem unnecessary and
inexpedienti The inexpedency of measure may
in many be fatal objection to il its
consttutionality and to deprive the Executive Of its
veto power such cases, would be to paralyze that
power in where its exercise would be most
cessary for the public good.

VETO NO 9

President Tyler has vetoed the bill just passed by
Congress, repudating the Compromise act ard the
provso against distribution and in doing this he has
acted like an honest, Independent man, and in de-
spite oil the influence of faction that would d;sSr
our country and destroy her prosperity for the pur
pose OF carrying out their own political designs
Let his views, in relation to Tariff be what they
may, he has signay rebuked the political madness
of the Federal party, and done but justice to his
country by refusing to distribute the proceeds of the
Public Lands amongst the States, while the Govern
ment stands so desperately in need of them herself
The Clay Wings in great pucker in conse-
quence of these reverscs and they say ever so many
hard things against Mr.. Tyler, calling him " loco
foco" traitor" and the like. 1t is plaio that all
their attempts, thus far, to head the Captain have
not only proved abortive, but have lecoiled upon
themselves.

ence to prevent the consummaton of the schemes Of
extravaganza which Congress, elected by false and
fraudulent pretences, seeks to impose upon people
whose confidence that Congress does not possess

Whoever will carefully watch the debates in Con
gress upon the tariff hardly doubt that the major
ity are DESTROYS of preventing any adjustment Of the
subject for the purpose of keeping il for theme at
the stump on the next Presidential election All ad-
init that the Treasury is bankrupt, and that rev.
enue must be raised by duties The majority insist
thata duty of ~ per cent, imposed by the cornpro.
mise, is not sufficient and contend further that no law
exists for the collection of this rate. This majority
admitting the insufcency of this rate affirming that
no law exists for the collection of anything, will pass
no law without the distribution of the public lands
They know uat the President will sign no bill with
tins provisio', and that constitutional majority
against the President cannot be obtained Yet soon
er than yield this single point, they will leave the
Treasury bankrupt, all the public officers excepting
themselves unpaid, and the country in disgrace All
this wears very much the appearance of an attempt
to force the people, by distress into the support Of
some particular candidate lor the Presidency.

A SOURCE OF TROUBLE.

The Federal press finds tsefin very delicate po-
sion IN regard to the Veto power in general but
particularly respects the Off by President
Tyler. That such power Is granted in express
terms to the Executive they dare not deny, and it
would avail them nothing if they did for with all
their ingenuity and subety of construction they
not ohlterate the seventh section of the first article
from the fair face of the Constitution The most they
do, the eore is To call 1t an exceedingly delicate
anu nice sort of power-one whose exercise,
any event. is fraught with considerations and coase
gu of tremendous and fearful character, 10

of being ordinate branch, mere cypher-a

1t is easy that such refining this would an
initiate every check and balance to be found the
Constitution, and degrade the President into
automaton-a play thing in the hands of the two
Houses. Can any one suppose that sach was the de-

they never intended il to be exercised? We opine
not. The necessity for its is implied in the very
