ADDRESS.
FrLlow.CrrIzrSs; In presenting TO you the name
Of John Tyler for the Office Of President Of the Uni
ted States we deem 1t important briefly to review
the events which have marked the Administration Of
the General Government since his elevation TO the
Presidency.
Properly TO estimate the consistency, integrity, and
sound principles Of MIR Tyler, It must be borne in
mind that his whole political career has been charac-
terzed by a steadfast adherence to the principles Of
genuine Republicansm
As the Representative Of his native county in the
councils Of Virginia, Governor Of that ancient
commonwealth and as a member Of the House Of
Representatives and Of the Senate Of the United
States he was the chosen champion Of the Democrat
&c party Of that patriotic State, and most worthily
did be defend the principles OF the Fathers of the
Republic.

the United States his consistent advocacy Of the
doctrine Of strictly constituting the Constitution and
hi. Il m stand in defence Of the rights Of tie States

ment and reform, and protesting desire TO bring
back the administration Of the Government 10 the

dency with full knowledge Of their previously cx-

land the candidates themselves addressed large as.
sembies Of their fellow citizens, and gave all the in
formation that was desired respecting their opinions
upon important measures. Among q csc, their views
of the want Of constitutional power 10 incorporate
Bank Of the United States, were freely, fully, and
openly expressed. Under the influence Of those ex-
pressions and Of abiding confidence in the since
rity Of those who had declared that no attempt should
be made to establish Bank until ii should be mpo-
rstively demanded by the voice Of the whole people,
the majority in the last Congress elected TO pow
