forth in his Inaugural Address and IT the grief
of his real friends 10 see men who elected
der his banner denouncing his successor for doing
p,eoiss what we have reason TO believe that Presi-
dent Harrison would have done himself mad he
lived. Men holding high places, and who hold them
by the same current Of popular feeling that brought
" Harrison and Tyler" into power, are now TO De
found bestowing epithets upon the very man VINO
holds his Office by their votes and voices
But they excuse themselves by saying that " Cap
tain Tyler has betrayed them !" but II you ask one
of them to furnish the evidence of his treason, you
will receive for answer that he is damned uai'

This is not the language Of the People, but is The
burst of faction The People have none of those
feelings The People are nth the President and the
evidence NAV be seen in the result of the elections
Where factions have controlled conventions, and re-
solutions have been passed by the temcry OF leaders
who are ignorant of public feeling declaring divorce
between the Wing party and the President it has re-
suited in defeat for the very that the produ-
cling people would not sustain the iactous leaders in
their acts of madness.
To be sure the language Of spectators in public
and private stocks and property, and IN professional
labor, is very different With the Wall street poll
tican down to one who peddles essence, and their
appropriate come xions you will find different sys-
TEN of politics from the who breaks the sod or
does any other labor. The latter pursues his bust
ness regularly and expects and desires nothing of
the Government than that of securing him IN the ENJOY
ment Of the fruits of his labor he expects that the Go
will regulate The currency and trade as to
make dollar bear the same value throughout the
Union. This can be done by the Exchequer. Then
why not adopt il Because it does not SUIT the spec
ulator.
Those who live by their wits instead Of their labor
prefer another mode. Confusion in business and
deranged currency afford them food. You now see
sprighty wrapped in costly mantles making
great show, and living by sort of polished robbery
If the business Of the country attended to and
regulated, that class Of politicians would be compel
led to labor, fall down upon level with others
who are supported at public expense. The great
question at issue is, which Of these casses hall be
consulted in establishing and regulating the business
of tie country. This question is what has created
the collisions between the Executive and Legislative
departments of the General Government. The u-
ira majority in Congress thoughtful for the spec
ulators, and the President is looking to the great
mass of the People. The public press is mostly
der the control of the factions that sway Congress-
who believe that the language Of the press is the
voice of the People. The President looks further
cling people. And that class who have not the
control Of the press bu, who yet bound by party
names and support presses which they dislike have
nothing to do but to shake the dust from their gar
ments, the work of reform will be speedy and
perfect.
Let the producing people once understand each 9TH
er, which only be done by interchange Of
and the conendng parties would be found acting to-
gether, in party, and the People would consti-
the other great party, and the President instead
of being surrounded by corporsl's guard would be
surrounded by magnanimous People.
