polled a majority Of the votes Of the state
Of New York, and we.bazard nothing in
saying that he never will. In 1928 he was
elected Governor by plurality vote in cons
sequence of their being three candidates in
the field; and in 1926 the Wings permitted
the election to 60 by default. because Mr..
Clay was not nominated. True, Mr.. Van
Buren's majority on that occasion after a
Tremendous effort which brought every
voter of his party to the polls, was about
toenty sir hundred and yet his entire vote
was thirty-two hundred less than the Wings
had given for William H. Seward two
years previous! and twenty thousand less
than their real strength in the State. To
the Locofocos of other states we unhesita-
tingly say that under no contingency can
Mr.. Van Buren, carry this state in 1874 !;
and the most knowing of his friends here
admit that he will not poll the party vote
by twenty thousand.

MIR. WEBSTER'S RESIGNATION
THE CHINA MISSION.

In our poscript of yesterday morning, we
briefly announced the statement of the Ma
tionai Intelligencer that MIR. Webster had,
at last, resigned his post as Secretary OF
State.
This turns out to be true and the Attor-
ney General, Mr.. Hugh S. Legare, has been
placed at the head of the State Department,
to discharge its duties nd interim, till per-
manent appointment can be made: Wheth :
er MIR. Lesare will be placed in that station
for the residue of Mr. Tyler's term, and va
cate the Attorney Generalship remains to be
seen we suppose not though no Other per-
son mas yet been announced for either post.
Mr.. Caleb Gushing has been appointed to
the China mission. Inasmuch as this place
was, OF course, to be given to an adherent of
the Executive, the selection of Mr.. Gushing
is as well, perhaps the best, that the Presi-
dent could have made.-.4b. Daily. .4du

surdity too monstrous to be crammed into
the minds of intelligent Vermonters. No
it is not the Tariff which has depressed

not stir an inch, except when they can pur.
chase the raw material at the very lowest
rates-for they have no assurance, even FOL

FROM WASHINGTON.

The Philadelphia United Gazette pub
fishes the following letter, under date May
6 =
1t is now stated publicly at the depart
ments, that information has reached here
from various parts of the country, that GER
tain individuals who have had the conf
dence and private counselling of President
Tyler, in relation to removals and appoint
ments for some months past, have been dri-
wing thriving business for their own pri-
vate purses, on plan if not entirely new,
at least startling to the public, now it has
become unknown. The plan is after this
wise
A Tyler Mass Meeting is advertised to
be held in populous town, although there
are not half dozen Tylerites in the place,
yet considerable collection will gather out
of curiosity, particularly if it is Court week,
or Races, or some other exciting cause is
brought to its aid. A violent Tyler speech
or two are made-a preamble and resolu-
tions, filled with fulsome laudation of the
President, are passed, and the most adroit
manager is despatched to Washington with
the proceedings of the meeting.
Having by this and other sly plans OBJ
tanned the confidence of the President
then commences the money making part of
the game, to the inquiry of the people and
the sacrifice of the Presidents popularity
if he had any.
Notice is circulated either privately or
publicly, as suits best, that Mr.--has
porcerful influence at Washington, and
forthwith the cute office seekers apply to
him for his aid to obtain them Post Of
fee, Custom House Office, or even a Tide
Waiter or Light House keeper.
If no money, or not enough, accompani-
es the application, this hopeful adviser of
the President locks it up in his desk for a
month or so, until more is sent or some
other applicant bids higher. But if hum
dred dollar note or so, accompanies the ap-
plication, it is favorably considered he
waits few days until several such douce-
urs accumulate on hand, and then the starts
for Washington-tells the President such
appointments will materially aid his rec
lection, &c. and thus readily succeeds in
filling his pockets. This is no fancy sketch,
for recent startling Developments have
been revealed which have exposed some
persons, hitherto of high standing and
themselves holding highly responsible Off
ces under the General Government, resi-
ding not hundred miles from Philadelphia.
But you will probably soon find more of
this base and blackhearted treachery OF the
peoples rights. This recent exposure will
readily account for there having been
much less number of removals than was
expected the first week in May. Certain
individuals hitherto secretly active in this
foul business, will not soon show themselves
here.

THE PATRIOT AND THE TARIFF

@The last Patriot gives over a column
of groans or growls about the Tariff, low
prices of wool, beef, &c &c. OF course the
Patriot should complain, and argue that the
largely increased duties of the new Tariff
have not improved prices-ergo, high duties
are no protect,on--doun ,ciih the Tariff
That is the argument which the Patriot is
holding out 10 the South, while it aims
10 disaffect the North on the ground
that the Tariff has not accomplished
the good which its friends designed. In
this policy our neighbors is somewhat in
genious, but he can't succeed in cheating
the friends of Protection. They know that
the largo increrse of protective duties. Civ
