days, and why he should come in for the es.
pecial maledictions of the presses of our par
~. The following manifesto from his off,
cial organ must open their eyes truly 10 ap-
preciate man who now stands convicted
by his own confessions of deserving his par.
ty, his professions, and the best interests OF
the country in the aspirations of his wild
and sordid ambition. Happily at last all
DISCUSSES have been thrown aside, the fig
of John Tyler is thrown TO the breeze, and
exhibits him identical in professions and
purposes with the slavocratic democracy Of
locofocoism. The whig party can no lon
ger, even in imagination, be made response.
bic for the continuance of the calami,ous
times which former misrule has inflicted
upon the nation. But for single month
have the reins of government been in their
hands. They have struggled bravely and
Perseyeringly Notwithstanding. But vain
have been their efforts 10 relieve the coun.
try against factious minority and treact.
erous President who has gone forth upon all
occasions with high hand and an out
sireached arm against all their measures
The people can now see that the michiev-
Gus policy which ruined them, has been per-
peruated with unrelenting severity by John
Tyler ever since accident seated him in the
Presidential chair, and the trickery he has
played before the nation has been huzzaed
by the locofocos as jus, such as they wished
him 10 perform. With our whole heart we
can say, they are welcome 10 this remarka-
Bile specimen of Inconsistency, treachery and
folly. and if they do not fraiernizc him. it is
not because they do not harmonize with him
in hostility 10 the wings. but because they
are unwilling TO strike their own flag 10 that
IF the piratical craft which has scud in a.
nong their own squadrons only 10 weaken
hem by divisions, and seduce their follow
,rs by executive favors from the allegiance
which they owe TO the Simon Pure leaders
If the pseudo democracy. Defying oppo-
'ition from all parties, John Tyler strikes
boldly for himself. He has widowed up
up both wings and iocos at single gulp,
md closes the following manifesto by pro.
aloud his determination "to ,cin
he people or perish tcith the people," Alas
Door forick,what hopeless alternatives have
Tou rashly presented! Yon can never win
he people, nor can you perish with the PEG.
'le, since your want of success will be the
certain means of their preservation.
