PRESIDENTS MESSAGE.

1t plain and business-like document conciliatory
in its tone and spirit, and in this respect it is lust
such an one as should emanate from the Executive.
Although every point it does not square with the
Democratic creed, there is much in it to commend
and but little to condemn. On the subject of the
Tariff Mr.. Tyler takes what is sometimes called the
middle, and what we think is the proper ground -
He is against a Tariff avowedly for protection, and
goes for such an will afford the necessary re-
venue and in the imposition of duties, believes there
should be such discrimination will favor the
American manufacturer. He deems the present Ia
riff as crude, and in some respects, oppressive
measure considers revision necessary, and recon-
mends the imposition of moderate duties.
The Fxchequer plan Of finance is again brought to
the attention of Congress, and its merits argued
at length and with great ability. Whatever differ
ence of opinion may exist in the public mind on this
vexed question of suitable Fiscal Agent, we think
cannot be denied that the President is honest in his
belief that the plan proposed will better than any
other measure, promote the public interests, and sub
serve the purposes OF its creation. All will admit
that settlement of this question is desirable and
would tend greatly to restore prosperity. While we
believe the nearer any system which may be adopted
is assimilated to the Independent Treasury, will the
country be most benefited, not disposed, like
some to reject every plan but that. Rather than
the public mind should be kept in state of excite
ment and uncertainty, we would adopt Mr. TyIer's
PLAN if il can be somewhat modified. The greatest
objection to it, conceive its liability to be abused
but this objection, to greater or less extent, be
urged against any system that may be proposed but
as it can be repealed at any moment if found inn
practicable after the experiment is made-the Legis
aturc which creates having the power to destroy il
we very strong objections against it
being adopted by Congress. Until some settled poll
cy Is agreed upon, the country cannot enjoy tina
tranquility and repose which is so essential TO it
prosperity
| The recommendation to Congress to reimburse I,
Gen. Jackson the fine imposed upon him by win
dctive Judge, during his defence of New Orleans, i
creditable in the highest degree to Mr. Tyler, ant
shows him TO be possessed of nice of justice
and a heart susceptible of most noble and generou
feeling.
The daily Madisonian. [volume] (Washington City [i.e. Washington, D.C.]) 1841-1845, 1842-12-20
From the Bau State Democrat.

We hope that Congress will bring to the conside-
ration of the proposed plan Of the Executive, sound
and enlightened views upon the laws of currency and
trade, the maturcd experience which men of careful
observation must have from the past and present
pecunary vcisstudcs of the country and that candid
spirit of Cancellation and patriotism CHI indispen-
sable to the wise dusment of such vexcd question
Mr.. Tyler has undoubtedly discharged what he con-
ce.vcd 10 be his duty in the recommendation of The
Exchequer plan, and he has also evnced in his mes
sage disposition to conform his action to the result
of the mature consideration Of che representatives Of
the people and the States This is manly and CON-
mendable and it claims from the National Legislature
a corresponding disposition to consider and treat the
plan upon its merits, regardless Of political friend
ships and antipahies existing between the members
and the Executive Mr.. Tyler has evinced sincere
disposition to accomplish something for the public
good and if the majority in Congress refuse TO coop
crate with him in some proper way from the influence
of partisan anmosty the country should hold the re-
creans 10 a strict account.
