The North-Carolinian., 1842-06-25
From the Globe.
Heading CAPTAIN Tyler.

We have heretofore adverted to what SEEM
ed to be the policy Of the whigs-that of send
ing bills to AIr Tyler against which he was
fully committed, and thus lay him under the
necessity ct using the veto, or incurripg the
imputation Of inconsistency. We have given
what seemed to be an instance of this, in the
temporary revenue bill, which has gone to the
Senate, and which violates the compromise,
and also the condition which the land dis
trbution bill was passed.
We have now to point TO another instance
of the same policy: that Of the mandamus and
fractional representation bill-sometimes call
ed the apPor!ionment bill-now passed both
with the same clause in it for which General
Washington vetoed the apportionment bill Of
1890, and against which Mr. Tyler voted Sc
ven times, in the Senate of the U. S. In S3l
and 1892. Mr. Tyler then voted against the
fractional representation in every form In
which it could be presented; and in such COM
pany as Tazewell, Troup, White, King, For
| syth, Mangum. SC. and against MIR Webster,
who was then advocate for fractional rep
| resentation. 1t was then opposed on consti-
tutional grounds in the Senate, and finally
| defeated in that body by the Senate's receding
| from its amendment. On the question of re-
| ceding in the Senate, moved by Judge White,
he always had been, and where Gen. WASH
ineton and his cabinet were-against the
fractional representation. He now has the
same question to pass upon again. coupled
| with auo,her-that of the mandate to the States
to district themselves.
RuMoRs FROM W.sH1NG roN.-We have
various rumors from Washington Of anticpat-
ed changes in the Cabinet, and we shall not
be greatly astonished if in the course of a few
days, these rumors assume the shape of facts.
1t is said that MIR Stevenson, of Virginia, will
be called to preside over the State department,
and Mr. Marcy Of New York over the War
department. Mr. " ebster is to be sent to the
Court of ST. James, and Mr. Everett now in
England, goes to ST. Cloud. BaH. Sun.
The ANIMAL WHEEL.-Thc New York
Mechanic says that one of the most dexterous
feats ever pc rformed for juvenile recreation is
the rolling of the animal wheel, as performed
by some of the gynasums in Italy, which is
as follows: Two boys nearly of the same size
and usually from ten to fifteen years Of age,
lash their bodies together, back to back-in
which, however, they are generally assisted by
and 'f four feei are nearly at equal distances
from each other, projecting from common
centre like the arms Of a wheel or rather wha
is in mechanics called spider. They then
manage to poise themselves on one foot ane
one hand, and, by slight exertion of eact
limb by IT'S turn, commence rolling wheel
fashion, which they will continue with incred
bIe speed, directing their course SO as to de
scriEe circle of twenty or thirty rods, and re
to the place from whence they started. This
feat is seldom performed, and on that accoun
excites the more curiosity, and never fails tt
call together crowd; and those who perform
it are usually rewarded by variety ofpresent
from the admiring spectators.
CoLoN1zArIoN.-The n. o. Picayune O
tine l 9th says &c The ship. ..MaraposaI Iceare'
yesterday for the coast of Africa. This YES
sci, it will be remembered, was chartered b
the U. S. Colonization Society, and has O.
board about ninety negroes, emancipated b
Mr. j. Mcdonald, of this city. We hear ihs
the province in the vicinity Of Liberia, wher
they are to settle is to be called Louisiana
and the town Mcdonald. The Marapos
sails to Norfolk, thence direct to the Africa
coast.'
