OF THE PRESInENIi

The Wing party have treated President TYLER
IN manner That ought 10 excite the Indignation of
every honest, moderate man. They have charged
him with more than vacillaton--even perjury They
have exhausted the dictionary of Bingsgate for
foul epithets, and with unsparing lavshness. have
poured them upon his devoted head
How stand the facts OF the case? MIR. TYLER came
into power firmly pledged anti-Bank man AT the
commencement OF the extra session, Government
agent being demanded in lieu of the repealed Sub
Treasury, Mr. Ewing, then Secretary of the Treasr,-
~, prepared plan which, when presented to Mr.
Clay, was secuted by him at once with the insulting
expression that she would not touch with pair Of
tongs" Mr. Clay then prepared one of his own,
fashioned alter the old monster This was presented
to MIR. Tyler before it was passed. and the President
plainly declared he could not approve it, He begged
Mr. Clay to spare him the pain of veto but in vain.
1t was passed and vetoed Another bill was then
prepared, with express reference to the embodiment
of the President with the Wing party, too MANY of
whom approved of the first veto. At this uncture
appeared the famous Richmond Coffee House letter
of John NJ. Bolts. In this, was developed the shead

pared sent to the President who objected to II nm

State where any agency of the Fiscal corporation

GRAFTON. This proviso was inserted upon the bill. in
the Presidents own handwriting And yet the Wings
pretend to say that the President agreed to the bill
at frst and afterwards rejected it. What shameless
mendacity
The bill, in spite of the Presidents objections. was
passed-and, as matter of course, was vetoed
The Fiscal corporation confessedly too little like
the old Bank to suit the Clay Wings, and too much
to suit the liberal Wings. Nobody regrets the
second veto, notwithstanding that so much abuse has
been heaped on the President in consequence
A "littie tariff BILL" framed evidently by the
spirit of mischief passed and shares the fate of the
two bank bills A big tariff bill, with dishonest
clause attached to it, continuing distribution after
Congress had solemnly promised that it should cease
went also to the tomb of the Capulets.
Charge John Tyler with perjury Why, this pres
ent Congress has violated solemn compact, made
and entered into in the face Of the world How
dare il charge another crime of which il is itself
Aagrantly guilty. How dare it, with its trickeries,
its tyrannral spirit its headings, its violent conduct
abuse John Tyler in so shameless manner'
The spirit Of ef6gy Whiggery, as manifested in its
opposition to the Administration can be rebuked and
humoled IN only one way. The iron heel of the De-
mocracy must be set upon it, and il must be crushed
into the earth There is safe alternative II suf

foot of the Democracy upon it, and may write and
squrm, but It can do no harm.
