THE ADDRESS

OF the Baltimore City Convention, published
in this days paper, is written in the spirit of
truth and eloquence-but the purpose OF its au-
thors and approvers in the different wards, has
already been forestalled by the Central Jacobin
Club, in perpetual session at Washington.
The "great Globe" has repeatedly said that
Mr.. Tyler's name "shall not' be uttered in The
Baltimore Conventon-and the friends of Van
Buren, have sustained it. II has assailed and
illuminated the President and the friends of
his Administration, even more than the Clay
presses-and the friends of Mr.. Van Buren, in
Congress hare made il their organ. There
fore, as far as the power and might of the Van
Buren, party can go, the Globe is omnipotent
The Convention TO meet at Baltimore in May
may be o Tan Buren,, not NATIONAL Conven-
ton. 1t may merely meet to register the edcts
of the Globe, and engage in the mockery of
formal vote on matters already irrevocably de-
cided. One hundred and thirty EIGHT votes will
be majority in Convention--the Globe b as al
ready lii thinks) secured the appointment, of one
hundred al d ninety Van Buren, delegates. Blu
the friends of Calhoun, Johnson, Buchanan aud
Cass will be admitted, as they were in Caucus
last week, humbly Qfthey willy 10 lay their pre-
tensions at the fee, Of the Globe despots-
Their many offences-their selfish ASPIRATIONS
will be pardoned. provided they swell with their
presence the triumphaI procession of Mr.. Van
Buren, in lS45, and Of, his appointed success
sor, in 40 and '53.
IL there be any of the Democratic friends of
President Tyler in Baltimore, or elsewhere, who
would prefer to render an abject and uncond-
tional submission to the despotic Jacobin Club
at Washington, than to take their chances with
the undaunted Constitutional Republican at the
head of the Government, il would be well for
them 10 act at once-whle the despots are flush
ed with the spos Of victory and inclined 10 mer-
cy. The least hesitation the part of Dem
ocrats, will certainly bring down upon them
their terrible wrath for all, all who have ever
dared to pronounce The name of John Tyler,
coupled with any expressions of appreciation, are
mdrked-long since marked-and unless the
present moment be seized TO propilia,e the Club,
they are doomed TO certain destruction. We,
who know John Tyler best, prefer to be destroy
ed with him, rather than undergo the humiia-
ting ceremony of craven submission 10 the base
inquistorial tribunal established by the tools OF
Mr.. Van Buren, at Washington. And we want
pone but true men TO stand by US.
We doub, not The Baltimore city Democratic
Tyler Convention will cheerfully share the fate
reserved 70, the President.
