NJ The contest in Tennessee is very spirited
Gov Jones and Ex-Goy. Polk are both on the
stump, speaking alternately to audiences of 800 10
900 daily. Jones Is in feeble health but can
talk At Pulaski, Polk condemned the last Con
srress for voting the balance of Gen. Harrson's
first years salary (3l3,000) to his widow. In
reply, Gov. Jones showed from the journals that
Polk himself voted 10 give gratuity of ss3i 900
10 the widow of Com Decatur. We rather think
the Ex-Governor won't disturb the HARRISON mat
ter again.--Iow low it must be to attack Wing
Congress for giving the Presidents widow the
amount of his salary for the unexplrcd year IN
which he died, when Van Buren, Legislature Of
this State unanimsusly did the same by the wd
pw Of Gov. Dc Witt Clinton under precisely sim
liar circumstances, and the like has been done in
almost every similar case! Is there sense Of
1nanness or shame in demagoguc Ihs cry
about Gen. Harrson's salary is most loahsomc
No Congress- of whatever politics, would have
done less.
Mr. Ashc is the Wing Candidate for Con
gress in the Xth (iT1cmphls) District, opposed by
f. p Stanton who takes the place Of Mr.. Fen
7ress, declined.
u Our cs,imablc friend, Robert Tyler, Esq, cid
est son of the President, gives notice through the
Aurora that the otfce-scccrs must Mt pitch and
tumble over each other in their struggles 10 get
places from John Tyler. while he is on his North
crn tour He inlmates that those who stand far
fher back will be apt TO quite as well. 1hs
a very proper caution, and we hope 1t will be
needed. Robert adds that those who have become
Tyler men merely for the sake of office won't be
appointed, if they are caught at it. My eyes
what pity father or son has not mental tcIc
scope! Every Wing now in office would stay,
from the naked impossbty of finding genuine
Tylerite to take his place.
