Tue SANDWICH ISLANDS TRoUBLE.-Adviccs from
England assure us says the Boston Mercantile Jour
nal that the Rev. Mr. Richards and Haalilio, the
Commissioners from the King Of the Sandwich
Islands, are in fair way of accomplishing the OBJ
iecs Of their visit to Great Britain, and will doubt
less succeed in establishing amcable relations with
that country on permanent basis.
They were to leave London for Paris about the lst
Of September-and will probably return TO this coun.
try in October on their way back to the Sandwich
Islands. Haalo has been quite upwell--at one time
seriously so-but when the Britannia left he had re-

Resolved That we repose full confidence in the

MIR. William Morrill,, on behalf of the Working

adopted:
Whereas, President Tyler has declared that " the
workingmen OF the country may Justly be regarded
as It's nam stay and support and that he would as
soon be chargeabe with any other offence as that of
INJUSTICE or OPPRESSION to them''-
Ind ohsreas, all his public acts as President of the
United States, having bearing upon that @ merto-
rous class" have been in strict conform ty with that
declarations
BE therefore resolved, That his unwavering devo-
ton TO the welfare OF Workingmen, and the produ-
eng interests oil The country, have for him our
highest estem and confidence and we do cheerfully
recommend the name of john TYLER to the Demo-
cratic National Convention as a suitable candidate

On motion of Mr.. S. Gayle, it was

President Tyler has been assailed throughout the
country, because he dared to do his duty TO his God

why he should by that People, be sustained and
rewarded.

highest enthusiasm prevailed. The meeting ad ourn-

ISTo dav we have detected the Globe in an
infamous attempt to impose upon its readers the
voice Of two dozen insignificant persons as the
"voIcE OF THE PEOPLE" We request our sub
scribers and correspondents to favor US with de-
scriptons of all such meetings, where any Of
the Globes abuse of the President is intro
duced.
At Springfield (Mass.) FIVE HUNDRED-a ma
jorily of the voters-met together, denounced
the Globe, and approved the course of the Presi-
dent The Globe says they were all office-hold-
ers and oifice-seekers And yet that print he
raids forth the doings Of twenty -four idlers as
the voice of The People Only twenty-eight
met at Roxbury where there are 600 voters !
We doubt not the Globe clique have furnished
blank denunciatory resolutions for other sections
If so, we ask our friends 10 expose the base inn
position.
We fancy the Globes "Voice of the People"
will soon sink into mere echo.
The Madisonian. [volume] (Washington City [i.e. Washington, D.C.]) 1837-1845, 1843-09-11
A MIGHTY BLAST.

The Globe of yesterday contains the follow
ing:
"The people speak for themselves in their prima-
ry meetings and their conventions. They now
speaking with loud voice throughout the Union"
The Globe, after making the above flourish
with his brazen trumpet, copies the proceedings
of meeting at Roxbury, Mass, in which we
find some of The identical abuse of the President
that appeared in the Globe few weeks ago.
But the PEOPLE now speaking with loud
voice, says the Globe. Now how many PEOPLE
does the reader suppose spoke at the Roxbury
meeting?
The Boston Post says:
The meeting at Rorb,ny uf'y small one, and
the successful candidates for delegates 10 the Worcester
convention receired only oenty tao marks The 'ohoie
number of marks abo, thirty understand This
in to,on chich cast last fall 583 uotes."
The PEOPLE speaking Rather say con-
emptible cotere Of scuryey politicians met to-
gether to rciterae the abuse Of the Washington
Globe We pin our faith to no mans sleeve
who depends upon such trickery to reach the
Presidency.
