From the PHILADELPHIA Ledger,
RECEPTION OF THE PRESIDENT,

Some of the principal cities, New York Boston
and Baltimore, making all due preparations fol
the reception of President Tyler as he passes through
on his way to the Bunker Hill Celebration In our
own city also some arrangements have been made
for the same purpose, and hope they will be en-
tered into with spirit and zeal and be equal 10 those
adopted by any other city This is due to the Office
that Mr.. Tyler fills ii is due to the purpose of his
visit the celebration of the deeds of our worthy and
heroic fathers, who fell in their countrys cause
is due also to character for berahty of SEN
timent and hospitality. There is no man, perhaps
who partakes of so large share the latter feeling
as the President, courteous h-nnded and liberal
gentleman, all persons alike treated by him with
hospitality, and his door is found open to Their
reception. We cannot then do less than recproca'o
this honorable feeling, and show by an hospitabc
welcome that we not only know how to respect the
chief magistrate Of country but that also can
appreciate the generosity and warm liberay Of the
man. In other cities, all political parties have united
TO give him demonstration of welcome suited to his
high station and to render to him that respect which
we would exact for him from strangers. This is
both generous and just, and proves that the indiyd
ua know how to respect themselves III showing be.
coming respect to the President No man. WORTHY
of the privilege he enjoys in this free republic
do less than show patriotic regard for lis Chief
Representative to treat him with GOODNESS dis
respect, because we do not think with him upon
tain topics of public import displays spirit of ntol-
erance and narrow pre- udice unworthy generous
mind, and as contemplate in character as it IN
manly, ill-bred and inhospiiable We trust the com
mittee who have the direction of the reception will
do their duty and provide handsomely for the occa.
sion, and we much mistaken in the character of
citizens il they do not forget for the time their
political predictions, and turn out and give
welcome to the city of brothery love TO the Pres-
dent Of the Republic and Representative of the Ma
ton.

Of the Independent is for Calhoun, and we are not
