Editor Of the Madisor,ian:
DEAR SIR Why is il that the Globe is so bitter in
its denupcations of the President What has John
TYLER done 10 call down these anathemas Of the
Globe man In what act has ne departed from tn"
Republican crcedi And in what particular has he
put himself in opposition to the Prne,P..gpsp T the
att fspeai; s' ,,ie Independent Treasury Well, what
if he did Had not the People most emphatically
condemned that measured As honest man--as
the Peoples President-could he have done different
| lyi Again: We told that he recommended and
approved the distribution Of the proceeds Of the pub
lie lands' Is this fair statement Of the case 1t is
not, and no fair man would seek to inure even an
enemy, by giving only half the truth. The Pres
dents recommendation is well understood by the
country, and coupled it was with other PROPOSE
tons and conditions, no candid man will say he did
wrong in the matter. But what if he did uncond-
tionally recommend the Land Distribution' .qnd,ru
Jackson bad done so before him, and many a wise and
good Democrat has been in favor Of il. What else has
the Pr, sdent done These are poor apologies in
deed, for denunciaton. The honest Democracy Of
the country will demand from the Globe something
better Than these before they take sides aga John
Tyler. They will demand something more tangible
and substantial, before they desert the man who hi
stood between them and the mischevous policy of
the Wings, and who, with Roman frmness and un
conquerable fidelity has breasted the storm Of abuse
and calumny for their sakes The Globe man may
rant and much as he likes he can never de-
ceivo the Democracy Of the country they neither
fear nor love him all his profession his hypocritical
cant, will not mslead, conceal his oloyen foot
John Tyler is daily gaining friends time is working
It's changes party shackles are being broken, and
party leaders disregarded. The masses are looking
on, and with noble independence speaking out for
the right; Republicans asking themselves, Why
should we oppose the Administration True, we
hear John Tyler evil SPOKEN of but we cannot see il
he is called traitor but we have not yet discovered
the treason are told his Administration amounts
to nothing-yet with stronger opposition than any
Administration hos had to contend with II has
accomplished what previous in vain sought after
Such the reflections Of the honest thinking people
such their sober second thoughts and he who,
when parties had beco corrupt and rotten-when
the old landmarks had been rampcd in the dust elo
waited himself above party, and won the proud appel
laton Of :" President without party" is rallyns
to his aid strong and mighty phalsnx of the People
The man who would consent to become the President
Of party is unworthy that high station, and John
Tyler, by consentng would have been recreant to
the high trust reposed in him by the Peo lie of the
United States. !, as citizen, rejoice that he was
made Of purer metal, and that he chose the nobler
and better part Of being the Peoples President The
man who has broken through the trammels Of party
who has placed himself high above their dirty waters
deserves the support Of every honest man he ought
to be sustained for an exhibition Of patriotic devotion
and courage which more politicians never display
Much may be said on this subject, and will recur
to il again, in connexion with New York politics and
the recent caucus nomination for President in I'M.
