BALTIMORE DEMOCRATIC TYLER CON.
VENTION."
"a Convention Of The friends Of Mr. Tyler recently
assembled in Bslumore-Nr. Moreau Forrest in the
char. They is,ned well written Address "To the
ciiizsss Of The United States in behalf Of the Ad-
m,nislrat,on, and IN recommendation OF the preten-
SONS Of Dir. Tyler to the Presidential Chair. We
shall not analyse its statementsbut cannot precise
y catch its object unless 1t be 10 prepare his friends
TO rally upon him at the BiltImore Convention OF
May next They set out with saying, "The time Is
at hand, when the Democratic party should frankly
the relative professions and merits Of the va
rious candidates whose names have been presented
to the Democracy, for consideration at the Conven
ton which is TO be held in May next" But they re-
commend no plan OF operat ons, for the purpose Of
bringing MIR. Tyler before that Convention. The
Aladsonian republisbes their Address--bu contends,
that "the purpose OF IL authors and approvcrs in the
different wards has already been fores;uled by the
Central Jacobin Club, in perpetual session at WASH
ngton." Ii aiiirms, that "Tbe Globe has repeatedly
said that Mr. TyIeI's name shall not be uttered in
the Baltimore ConyeDtion-and the friends Of Fan
Buren, have sustained it. II has assaled and caum-
mated the President and the friends OF his admins
trstion, even more than the clay prcsscs--and the
friends Of Mr.. Van Buren, in Congress hare mad; IL
their organ, Therefore, as far as the power and might
oil the Van Buren, arty can CO. the Globe Is omnpo-
tent" The Madsonian thus processes TO believe,
that the Convention of Baltimore IS "a Van Buren,,
/ not National Conyentionn-and IT appeals 10 the
pride OF the friends OF all the other candidates, wheh
| er They will JON IN Swelling with their presence
the trlumphal procession Of Mr. Van Buren, in I545
and OF -, his appointed successor, in '49 and 50
As for Mr.. Tyler, the Msdisonan to disclaim
any concurrence with the movements of the Conven-
ton, and'with more passion than prudence, declares,
that "wc, who know John Tyler best, prefer to be
destroyed with him, rather than und rgo the humi-
atIng ceremony Of craven submission 1, the base in
quisitoral tribunal established by the tools Of Wash.

Tyler Convention will cheerfully share the fate
served for the President
For our own parts, we dsclsim the premises, as
we'll the logic Of the Madisonisn No press rules
the Democratic press. The Globe, with all its fine
talents. and all its distinguished services, cannot as
sumo the power Of Central Club" As lar as the
Van Buren, party concerned, It is not omnipoent
though there IS no one press In the Union, which
has more Influence perhaps as much, as the Globe.
Yet II is idle to attempt to make any press or any
man the dictator OF the party What, though the
Globe may have offended Mr. Tyler' What, though
owing to particular and strong considerations but not
at all connected with Mr. Tyler its editors have been
reelected the Printers TO the House is that any
reason why MIR. Tyler should now throw himself
against the Republican psrty--discIaIm the move
mens Of the Convention and do all IN his power To
promote the election OF MIR. Clay Let MIR. Tyler
come before the Convention, and our life It, II he
be the nominee OF its delegates the Republican party
will 90 for him in preference TO Mr. Clay. IL be
then so much incenscd with the Globe, that he will
not only sacrifice Mr.. Van Buren, but his own pro
fessed principles upon the shrine Of the Fedora
leader Does he act from revenue and is II posi-
bic for him 10 deicst Martin Van Buren, more thar
Henry Clayi
The appeal TO the Madisonisn is vain IL viii moi
succeed 10 producing coalition and distinct
convention with the friends Of the other candidates
they sec the abyss with which we are threatened
the, see the danger Of electing Mr. Cay-and OF Sc
curing bis success by own divisions They vii
promote union, and not dlsscn,ion the rock Of on
safety With them generally, and with few cxcep
tons, the badge Of the Carroll Association will be
their counersign "USros our choice, the NOMINEES
Of the National Democratic Convention. Under tbr
flag We will copqrer in ls4i" Should il be the WI
of tho Republican party, speaking through their Del
egstes at Baltimore, that MIR Van Buren, should b'
their candidate to red ess the wrongs, which we
suffered in his person from the outrages Of the Wing
in 1910, the Msdisonsn may rest assured, that thu
Republicans Of every clique and classification will q,
for him, with very few exceptions. We appeal
therefore, TO "he sober second thought OF the Nadi
sonian. We appeal from Philip drunk to Phii
'ober'-from the passion Of Mr.. Tyler's friends t.
their cooler judgmcnt--from spirit of blind resent
ment TO their regard for their principles and hei
country"
We assure the Enquirer that we were neitbe
mad nor dfunk. What we have asserted here
