DISSOLUTION OF THE " ANCIENT TYLER PARTY. y
Eccentrcty is the grand characteristic OF all move
ments in this latter day. In the literary, scientific,
moral, and religious world you see everywhere an
amusing struggle afer singularity and originality.
Among politicians this straining after effect, by the
exhibition OF the most whimsical conduct, is particu-
larry evident. And of all the political movements,
the most aughabe, amusing, and original the for
NAL dissolution of the ancient Tyler party, after
preoarious and struggling existence of twelve
months duration, in the Military Hail. Bowery,
under the auspices of Major Noah, Judge in Israel
and Elk Governor OF Grand Island. We do not
think that there has been any joke perpetrated du-
ring the last ten years, at all comparable to this
The only event to which npoint of fun, raciness,
and genuine humor, it bears any resemblance, the
publication of the famous manifesto from Grand
Island, and the announcement of the erection of a
city of refugee for the distressed of all nations,
and particularly of the ten tribes The same genius
shines in beth But we are candidly of the opinion
that the dissolution of the Tyler party is by far the
funniest and most original of the two Jokes.
II appears by the ergan of the faithful, yesterday
that The following very important proceedings took
place at the Military Hall, on Monday evening
last -

This, then, is the end-the interment-the last ap-
pearance on any stage of that wonderful, irresistible
swalowng-up Tyler party, TO effect the organization
of which Major Noah left the bench and two thou
sand year, and which to knock all the other
political parties in the country into a three cornered
hat! $50 quick bright things come to confusion"
The history of the movements and operations in
this affairs are not fully known to the community;
but the aughable absurdity and amusing iRsipidity
which characterized the whole thing from beginning
to end. render ii absolutely wicked to withhold the
biography any longer. We must. therefore, give
briet memoir of this deunct movement, and give it
at all events, decent place in the chronicles of the
times II seems that in the early part of the year
of our Lord one thousand eight hundred and
his health after the trials and labors Of the
bench in the Court of Sessions, took trip to
Washington. He had several interviews with
Captain Tyler at the White House. During these
interviews the Captain very naturally and reasona.
bly, made great many complaints to Judge Noah
respecting the bad conduct of the whigs and the
sorry treatment which he had received at their
hands, on account OF his vetoes. Major Noah felt
for the Captain Just as Sir John Fastaf in former
age felt for the condition of the Kings treasury in
his Interview with Prince Hal; and after several
conversations, ii was finally agreed that Major Noah
should return to New York, and make great and
vigorous movement for the organization Of out
and-out Tyler party. Accordingly, the Major
turned and embraced the first opportunity that pre-
scented itself, of resigning his Judge-ship, which
was worth two thousand dollars year; and then
started the Union. Little eliqises were organised
in several wards, and general committee organ
lied at Military Hail. of which Redwood Fisher,
Paul II. George, and a number of others connected
with the government Offices in this city, were the
prominent members very confidential cores
pendence then commenced between Redwood
Fisher and the Postmaster General, Major Noah and
Captain Tyler, and various office holders here with
subordinate officials at Washington, each and all
claiming to be the master spirit of the great
ment In order to support the work, funds were ne
cessary. Accordingly we find that from this period
up TO the demise of The Unon,' about 81 900 were
collected rom the Custom house officers, each of
whom contribute nrroporion to the amount of his
annual stipend The Collector probably assessed
at $3.50 Redwood Fisher contributed, it appears,
his note for 500, for which he afterwards took the
benefit OF the Bankrupt Act. The Postmaster and
others gave each his share for the promotion Of the
grand and patriotic enterprise
In the meantime this vast movement was greatly
facilitated by the appointment Of a number of the
" suotenaneans," or young democratic" to Off
ces in the Custom House. under the distinguished
