Let the friends OF the Administration lake cou-
rage lei US buckle on our armor and strike Tor
the cause let not ambitious men in our own
ranks SOW disseusions among Us Tor the purpose
of retaining their own position OF advancing
their own selfish purposes; let every man have
one idea, one feeling, one hope, one obJect-'he
support of the Administration as dnii, and the
advancement Of its interests.
This can be done eAectually only through har-
mony among ourselves and the incubation Of
kind feelings towards all the various sections and
interests of the Democratic party. Let this be
the study of ndiyiduals--lel il be the aim OF the
press. The claims of no man living can be adj
vanced by abusing John Tyler or his Admins
ualion--neither can the prospects or interest Of
Mr.. Tyler be benefited by unnecessary attacks
upon any other candidate. elimination and re-
elimination has already been carried too far.--
II desire to desist on one side exists, let II b'
inflated aud encouraged by the other.
Let truth and fair dealing govern us all
Let us, as friends of John Tyler urge and press
his claims, not by Withdrawing ourselves from
the great Republican party, but by acting upon
it-direct il if we can into our channel, ant
swell our own ranks with willing Democrats
O.ganiZe we must, not, however, for the pur
pose OF dstracting the harmony OF the party, bn
to show our own force-our own strength--tbt
justice of our own cause, and al The same time
throw the mantle Of charity over all other inte
rests. While we are true 10 ourselves, true &c
the cause, and true to the Democracy, who
shall, who dare deny to US The right of express
ing our preferences Not one. If we are right
and so far as this city is concerned we think We
are, the question arises, will our friends act
The time for acton-decided action is noio.-
If our friends will move, the beneficial effect.
will soon be seen and felt We have, we mus
confess, sometimes thought we discovered a
disposition on the part of some of our friends "a
check the Democratic tendency of our move
ments. We have had suspicious that there
were men with us who feared that the affect Of
ralying around the Administration strong and
influential Democratic force would effect their
own position and endanger or weaken their in
fiuence, or supposed influence with the Execu-
tive. If there are such, let them look well TO
the effect of such movements. Let them study
the feelings and expressed wishes of the Presi-
dent and see if their designs square with his
views. Is he not, has he not ever been firm,
devoted and consistent Democrat Does he not
rest his hopes for The complete success Of his
Administration and of his future prospects upon
the great Republican party? And must bar
rier be Placed between US and that party, beyond
which we must not 60 for fear of affecting the
interests Of an individual? Away with such
short-sghied policy. Sink all individuality and
let US press for the general good With leader
every way worthy to follow, engaged in cause
as good as it is glorious, we have nothing TO fear
from open enemies, nothing to cread from secret
foes.
