Let US see how the leading locofoco papers
receive Mr.. Tyler's advances. The Rich
mond Enquirer says
"Mr. Tyler can never be selected as the Dem
ocratic Locofocol candidate by the National
Convention. He can never be elected the Pres

the question to think OF it. 1t is doing worse

him, or elsewhere, to play upon his passions; to
abuse his good nature; TO offer incense to his van

ernment." Even if Mr.. Van Buren, or Mr.
Calhoun should fail in the nomination, Mr.. Ty
Ter canno, obtain it. There are many other al.
tentative candidates who would superseds him.
Indeed he would be the very last, although he

That is rather poor encouragement, we
tax it. And the Enquirer is not the only
paper that speaks thus of the President and
his Administration. Below is an extract
from the Globe--and when such papers as
the Enquirer and Globe take stand, the
smaller concerns through the country are
sure to follow. The Globe uses the fol-
lowing language

There are few more wings holding of

to fully "democratize it," the President will
have to cause them to be removed, and fill
their places with locofocos. 1t looks to US
very much like the rankest fana,icsm, to
hear person talking about Mr.. Tyler's
being elected Presidentin 1871. Yet there
are those who talk as if though they really
believe he will be our next President.
Where is he to get support from? His name
is seldom mentioned by wing, except with
execration, and sure there is no chance for
his succeeding with that party, The above
extracts show the feeling the locofoco par.

for support has he there! He will retire
from the seat he now occupies with as few
regrets as any public functionary ever re-
tired from any post, "unwept, unhonored
and unsung."
