THE PRESIDENT.

II Is tru gratifying To read from every quarter,
manifestations oil the growing popularity OF Mr.
Tyler with the people and we hazard the prediction
that notwithstanding the black malice OF has
enemies he Is destined To enjoy popularity as uni
versal as any man who has occupied the Presidential
chair since the time Of Washington. True, John
Quincy Adams abuses him without stint )
but he also abused Thomas Jefferson. The country
has not forgotten in what UNANIMOUSLY gross terms that
'pink of perfection" lampooned the great apostle Of
democracy in his poem called "Dpsky Sally MIR
Tyler ought 10 think himself happy in being thought
worthy of persecution from the same quarter and the
greater the maleyolence, and the bitter the M
vectye, the more certain we are that John Tyler IS
exponent of genuine republican principles for II
there are any men in America who have advocated
and penevered In anti-republican doctrines, John
Quincy Adams is now one of their principal leaders
He hates the democracy of the United States with an
in, eieracy bred in the bone ard every who, in
any important measure, is governed by the principles
of Jefferson Jackson him he pours out the walls
of his enmity aud wrath. The Headers during the
las; session abored hard and thought they dig
ging deep beneath the entrenchmert of Honesty oc-
led By the President but he ''deved yard below
their mines, and blew them at the NOON Fooled
and scattered as they were, they rallyng their
broken host for another but if the signs of the
times do not deceive US, they are now TO be handled
even more roughly than ever. The "Huge Paws" of
the people them and that old indomtable de-
mocracy who SO nobly and completely upheld,
strengthened and sustained Jackson, will now rescue
John Tyler from the unholy grasp of his enemies.
The following Resolution unanimously adopted by
the democrats of Cuyahoga county, is only one Of
hundreds OF indications which meet from all quar-
tiers 4 the country. John Tyler in the struggle Of
lo44-in the great question of Bank Bank-will
be the strongest man in the nation, whose name TO
rally in defence of the principles to the support of
which the real republi Of the country stand
pledged;
Resoired That the niexible integrity of John Ty-
Ter in arresting the Infamous attempts Of Govern
ment faction to establish monetary oligarchy over
the people Of this country place him exalted
moral eminence that his manly bearing throughout
a persecution of unequalled magnity, and his tri-
umphant passage through its pers, have given him
claims TO the admiration and affection of the Ameri-

"PROOFS OF THE EXECUTIVE GUILLO-
TINEn

Under this head, in the " Middlebury Peoples
Press" we perceive that the President is
charged with prescription, for the recent re-
moval of MIR. Slade from a clerkshp in the
General Land Office.
This charge is entirely gratuitous, for the re.
moval was not made by the President, but by
the Commissioner of the General Land Office
himself. And equally without foundation is the
suggestion, that there was any regret expressed
IN The Office at the removal of Mr.. Slade. for
none was either expressed or felt
