II has been seen that in 1919 the vote 20
whicl Mr.. Tyler alludes, was given by him Ia
favor of resembling the Bank charter. The
speech he then delivered was against its CON
sfitufionaiiiy and e1pediency. And IL has
ais been see that his vote in 1882 was against
the renewal ofMe Bank charter
On the 9th October, 1910, while in Ohio, The
Democratic citizens Of Sieubenve addressed
him The following question: ''Do you believe
in the consiitutionality Of Bank of the United
States 2" To which he thus answered: "My
opinion of the power Of Congress 10 charter
Bank of the United States remains unchanged
from that of 1919 and 1891 There is not in
the Constitution any express grant OF power for
such purpose and ii neper could be constif't-
honal 10 exercise that power, save in the event
the powers granted TO Congress could mol be
carried out without resoring TO such an inslliu-
tion." Such n, cessity Mr. Tyler declares, in
an after letter to friend, he believes "not yet
10 have arrived"
And again, in ls40, Mr.. Tyler empha'ically
de cleared his opinion against The constitution
atty of a Bank Of The United States, 10 the
Democratic citizens of Pilsburg, in answer 10
similar question 10 that proposed to him al
Seub nvile. The history Of that letter Mr..
Wise thus gives TO the lnteligencer:
"Durlng the session Of 1885 and 1910, Mr.. Tyler
add fessed to me- in Washington letter from Will
liamsburg, Virginia saying THAI meeting OF the
Democrats OF the city Of Pituburg Pennsylvania,
had called on him especially to say whether he would,
in any event, sanction the Incorporation oil United
States Bank he enclosed me tie proceedings OF their
meeting and their resolutions, md sent to me his re-
ply with instructions to submtit 10 the leading mem
beers of the Wing party for them to determine whe-
Their it should be transmitted TO Pttsburg, and be
published, or not. The substance of the reply re-
member well-it spirited and explicit Alter
examining the right of all citizens 10 call for his sem
tments on all public questions, and stating that the
fair object of such calls shouk always be to enable
the electors to cast their votes inellgiby according
to their conviction of right, after showing the
true opinions Of candidates, lie expressed the opinion
which he had ever entertained that Bank Of the Uni
ted States uncOnsu ionit and that ne could mol
the Co,,st tuition He then alphabetically asked those
who ad re-sed him, if these were their sentiments,
whether they would mantainthem at the polls, Or
whether their object was TO divide the Wing party by
| publishing them 10 the couitry' This reply thus
| given did submit to several Wing members of Con-
gress whose opinions thought most entitled to respect

give it publicity, tina Mr. Tiers opinions wsre already

been concealed or that any deception was practised

| This after the nomination, and before the elec-
ton. The leaders here could not pretend tina, they
! did not know what he would do with respect to q
Bank
Hnwever much The Wing press and party
may declare that these facts were not sufficient
10 convince them of his opposition to Bank,
or else they would no, have lavished upon him
such encomiums as we have quoted, we assert
that they were enough 10 have satisfied any
sane person of such oppOsiton-and we more

The Boston Atlas" nd no paper h been
more vlrulent against the President for the last
twelve months OF the middle Of prl 1871, say,
"Mr. Tyler NAMED in the Senate his entire
term of six years. In 1885, he wa, reelected
up 10 which lime he had been a mod rate,
although decided supporter of the administra-

And in the "Richmond Whig," of April
30h, 1871, than which Bolts himself has not
been moe abusive we find this language in
| its leading editorial:
| VIRGINIA AND THE ADMINISTRATION.
Should Virginia, in the elections Just passed. have
returned majority of opponents TO the new Admin
istration, 1t would be a Singular commentary upon
her protested devotion to the will OF the People and
a singular instance Of the blindness and rage of fac.
ton triumphng over reason, patriotism and common
sense.
In the first place, 10 States and an electoral ma o-
ry OF Ia, the largest known TO our history have in
stalled the existing Administration Was no defer.
ence due to the voice Of so immense a majority OF
our countrymen--no respect 10 he decision Of ~
States Nay, nothing due TO the old reputation
Of Virginia for steadiness, principle and integrity
Must She Of all others, set the example Of rushing
into laction-opposng Administration before il
was formed-an Administration headed BY her own
son-and arrayng herself against il before its policy
was developed IT Is VAIN TO say THAT THE ApPRE.
