THE TYLER PARTY IN NEw YORK There has
qnite controversy:sprung up between the Globe
and the Madl,onian as to the whereabouts of The
Tyler party in New York at the late election. Ac
cording to the Herald, elEvenins Post, and some
other papers, Mike Walsh and his Subtenaneans
constituted that party, and the Globe adopted the
same conclusion. This was denied by the P,ebeian,
and the denialwas followed by the Madsonian.
But what were the facts At The Subterranesn
meeting held just before the election, at which Nike
Walsh pre- sided, string of resolutions highly com.
mandatory OF the President was read by James
Kelly, who is known the great friend. defender,
and champion OF John Tyler, and standing eandi.

ap roved by Ohm Tyler and also approved
by MikeWahh, were passed by this meeting and pub
lished in the Slbterranean. The party which voted
for these resolutions voted also the Subterranean
ticket; and it this not John Tylers ticket We
should like TO know what was. For there were bur
four other parties at all in the field, The whgs loco
focos, the American republicans, and the abolition
lists, neither OF whom said single word about john
Tyler, nor have ever been known or suspected OF
having any thing TO do with the present national
adminisra ton.
Thus it is proved that the subterranean ticker
was the genuine Tyler ticket. They polled aboul
ESQ votes, when was an unusually large number,
and they ought to be very well satisfied with il al
