ATTACK OF THE GLOBE ON MN.
ROBERT TYLER.

We were inconsidera,e on yesterday when
we stated that MIR. Robert Tyler would himself
replv 10 Mr.. Blair We knew Mr.. Tyler TO De
of an ardent temperament, and observing 'ha'
the attack on him 10 the Globe was not only IN
usual in its character, but exceedingly coarse
and Insulting in its terms, we supposed a' Tue
moment, that Mr.. Tyler would answer II unuef
his own hand, and so, without further conside-
ration, Published. But proper degree OF renee
lion satisfied US that 10 do so would be neither
becoming in Mr.. Tylers position, nor likely 10
be his pleasure, and we have this morning re-
ceived a note from Mr.. Tyler himself calling our
attention to the article in question, and request
ing us 10 notice lis libelous character.
We observe that the editorial of the Globe IS
penned in so arful a manner as TO leave the
reader at fault TO decide whether or mol MIR. Bu-
chanan, the distinguished Senator from rehh-
sylvania, reported 10 the editor the conversation
which Blair alleges TO have taken place between
him aud Mr.. Tyler. Although we have not
seen Mr.. Buchanan on the subject, we take the
responsibility on ourself TO say that The INFER
ence which the Globe would have the reader
draw from his cunning editorial, so far as II aP-
niles TO the Senator from Pennsylvania, IS oil
decep,ious nature. 1t is impossible that gen
,,eman so well respected by all honorable men,
and 80 generally admired for his hospitality
of feeling and consistency Of charac,eras MIR. Bu-
chanan is, to have been guilty OF such gross
and outrageous breach of decency and OF eleva'-
ed courtesy. AID when we take further int
lair AUS & 4
the recipient of these representations, we in'ei
that the editor of the Globe has IN truth suo
iec,ed himself TO an action for libel when
inducing any one, by the remotest inference !"
draw The conclusion that Mr.. Buchanan either
repor,ed this conversation 10 him, or au
,bor;zed its publication. We think we
know who this People-honored" person Is
and although the conversation 10 which he was
listener, and made himself without Invitation
30 far as Mr.. Tyler was concerned, party, oc
cured in private house, and oil course mus
have been considered by the gentlemen pre-
sent as par,aking Of the character of the plac
IN which it was held, has been thus publishes
in the gossipplng columns Of the Demo
cratic organ, yet we feel assured mat MI
TYLER has not the least objection that II Shout
have been thus given 10 the world through tn
fundamentally of some "holy Persian" de
yout worshpper Of the "Rising Sum-" If tn
prospectire office holder has by this violation {
courtesy convinced his "effulgent god" OF III
faith and zeal of his worship. When Mr.. Va
Buren, is elected President, he will no dou'
ouickly epsconcc himself in some warm noe
or creyice of the great Globe, and sun himse
deshtcdly in the smiles Of office.
The object however. on the part OF the Gloi
editor Of leaving the impression on the mind
his readers, that Mr.. Buchanan reported tn
conversation 10 him, is unquestionably TO pr
duce the further impression that Mr.. Bucban'
ba. also scared I'M and reuounced his Preside
,;al aspirations in favor o another dist
puished gentleman. This is in keeping wi
the many reports which have been put IN c
culation by a certain description Of the pub
pres, all over the country, that Mr.. Calbo
has also yielded his pre-eminent claims TO
Presidency in favor of this same gentleman F; o
editor declaring, by way Of COM lation to
honorable Southern statesman, that he has su
his principles in consideration Of the sncc
sio, and another, that he is 10 run as Vice
.ident on Mr.. Van Buren's ticket. We belle
none OF these numerous gross imputations, a
palpsble and absurd misrepresentation, in
.pect to the South Carolina statesman.
Blu, in rcspec, to the "pubUc printing" we
authorized by Mr.. Robert Tyler to say, tina,
did use every possible exsr'ion Of which
humble and upin6usntial person as h, 10 '
