GOOD COUNSEL.

An aged friend in Virginia. patriot, states
lows: " w bile storm is brewing in the Re-
publican ranks, which threatens the overthrow
of the party, and the elevation of the Bank Fee
deralists to power, naturally look to VIRGINIA s
SON, now al the head of affairs, as the beacon of
hope, and do not look in vain. The events OF
the last ten DAYS inspire me with confidence that
the Republic is SAFE The course Of your
paper, indicating as ! doubt not it doe, the de-
termination of the friends of the much calum-
MIA ed President, to withdraw from the strife
which is beginning TO rage between two of the
powerful chiefs Of the party, inspires the
belief that all will end we'll The crisis had
certainly arrived, and instead of wheeling the
Administration forces into The ranks of either Of
the rival Chi itains, it has given me JOY TO see
them hold themselves in reserve TO combat the
common enemy when the decisive blow Is to be
given.
Thu, let The friends Of John Tyler ever hold
themselves aoof from internal discussions.
Let them b. Of good cheer. Let them rally
round their leader, who saved his country in the
hour of greatest peril and when no other man
living could have saved it. He will live TO save
if aoain-and the revied lew who have ranged
themselves under his banner, will yet swell into
a NATIONAL GUARD Though 'reviled, let
them not reviIe again !; and let all their commu-
nications with brethren of the same faith be
peaceful and conciliatory. If this or that Demo
cratic paper, orator, shall see proper TO attain
some particular object, to attack The President
or any of bis mea sures, lift be worthy OF notice
at all do not, even in self-deience, assa the
party TO which the one or the other may belong.
For YOU may b. assured that no considerable
portion Of the Republican party will sanction
any assaults on the Administration while it
maintains its present admirable position.
Rely upon it that the People are becoming
more and more in favor of this Administration
every day. They see that the Government was
never better administered, and it must be ac-
knowledged that the country was never in a
more prosperous condition. The foul calun-
MES which the Presidents enemies attempt to
fix upon his public character, are Of an epheme-
raj nature but his acts, even if his services
were TO end to-day, would form bright page in
his conntry's history.
But be assured that the Pcople-those who
neither desire nor expect personal benefits from
political victories, save those which are derived
from good measures-will, when the proper
time arrives, be just as willing 10 support John
Tyler for the Presidency any other man
Therefore, repeat, let The friends of the Ad-
minis,ration be of good cheer Let them be
sure and do nothing wrong-;ommit no error
be firm, steadfast, mmoyeable, in their devo-

We copy the subjoiued letter not to abuse
it, for we can find no fault in il as a means to
sustain the writer's pary-but to show our friends
how important ii is TO sustain their papers, and
the manner in which it should be done. There
are many affecting TO support the Administration
who place too small an estimate on the impor-
lance of supporting the Administration papers,
We do not see how any man can be true friend

1CnMHUNICATED.
HENRY CLAY.

This man has been partially successful,
and yet sadly disappointed man. He
has long aimed at the Presidency, but will
never reach it. The feelings Of the Anne
rican people towards him, are the same as
those Of an accomplished female towards
a designing suitor, who, 10 secure her ia
vors, plans a sham violence, and himself
comes to the rescue. The double part of
this willy politician IS fully known The
impression has become deep and perma-
ncnr, that he is sclf-convicted and polti-
caily ruined: yet he seems determined to
make one more desperate effort for the
Presidency; but he little expects to sue
coed. Ia talent he is a third rate man; in
moral standing, as a politician or a patri-
ct, a tenth. His mind is more lively and
lucid than strong: and his judgment bet
Ter calculated for subordinate than
leading character He is full Of hope and
conf lence, and at an age in which he
should retire from sordid politics and
party slang, he has all the ardency of
youthful inexpcrience and indiscretion.-
His rcvcngeful feelings are keen, but kept
under bY policy; and can be seen only in
their effects uHon his physical constitution.
We shall no doubt hear his fine, keen,
siIvery, trcmulous voice al eighty, dePre-
eating and dcnouncing m"n,and eu'"99Islng
political acts AID measures which posterity
will ever -xccrale. He can forget or re-
mnmher as pIea.os himself; but ne should
rccollcct that the American people never
forget. and when deceived and injured,
never forgive. The party rush may raise
man for moment. but it is only TO let
him fall with a ten fold violence. 1t is his
unenyiable privilog tomake noise, flourish
and pass away. Had Hr Clay died some
twenty years ago he would have left fair,
Young fame: as 1t is he has lived too long.
and must die after his fame itself has with
cred and decaved. His flow Of language
is superior to his strength Of mind; his
strength Of mind 10 his disc Elimination, and
Judgment to his moral worth. But leave
him in the hands of the Anne rican people.
who, if thew do unto him as he has
dom unto them, will deceive him once
more before they desert him. W..

To the Public.

u The subscribers deem it proper to announce
to the public that the "Garland of the West and
Wisconsin Monthly Magazine" heretofore pub
lished by Edward Young Esq, has passed into their
hands The first number under the new arrange
ment, will make its appearance near the close of
February, and thereafter regularly on the 18th of
every succeeding month, until the close of the vol
ume.
Instead of "a page each number hereafter Will
contain but l6-the amount of reading matter
however, will not be lessened as it is intended TO
increase the size of the pages to a sufficient extent
to make up for the decrease in the number 1t will
be published in form similar to that of the New
World.
The title of the publication will be simply /" The
Wisconsin Monthly NlagazIne,' and It's character
will be somew hat changed. In addition to lite
rary articles of the lighter kind, which shall be of
the best character unless the and Judgment of
the publishers be at faut,-a portion, and probably
the larger portion of the Magazine will be taken up
with matters oil a weightier and more useful kind 3,
relating to education, morals, science and whatev-
yer else may tend to instruct and improve. As
something of departure from the orr ginal plan of
the work IS contemp plated and as, in consequence,
the publication may not hereafter be quite so &C.
ceptabIe to many of its subscribers who relish no.
thing but light reading It may be proper to init
mate that they who wish to discontinue will be
considered at liberty to do so, Notwithstanding their
subscription may have been for full year, with this
condition, however, that the six months which have
elapsed, be previously paid for
The publishers will be pleased to receive con-
tributions from any and every part of the territory
upon all TOPICS interesting and useful, whether Of
a general or local character. The grand object is
to promote public intelligence and morals and he
who by the of his pen, is disposed to engage in
an enterprise of this kind will find the columns of
the Magazine at all times open for his contributions
will find here medium through which his
thoughts and reflections may be commuGica ted. If
they who have literary talent do not find in the
noble character of the object suggested an adequate
motive for its exercise, the publishers must fail to
present a sufficient induceInent IN the premises.

municatons to the " Wisconsin Monthly Maya.
