Mr.. BUCHANAN next gave fatal thrust at The

Sand now have one word to say on the late Pres-
dental ye,o and then shall have done. It has been
said that John Tyler was bound by the fidelity which
he owed his party to approve the bill for Fiscal
Bank. deny it altogether, and say that, II he had
approved that bill, he would have deserved to be de-
nounced as self destroyer, as false to the whole
course of his past life, false 10 every principle of
honor and false to the sacred obligation of his oath
to support the Constitution. He had declared, again
and again, that such Bank unconstitutional;
and yet he is denounced because he did not render
| himself Infamous by an utter disregard OF that ln-
| strument. The President had but righteous
course before him; and had he taken any other, it
would not only have blasted his own character, but
it would have fixed blot on the history of his coun-
try to all future generations. How was he commit
ted TO sign bill which he believed TO be unconstitu-
| tona. What was the history of the Harrisburg
Convention land it will be remembered that do
not live far from that celebrated place. How was
that convention composed? 1t contained, admit
many men of the highest respectablity; but, in po
liticaI view it was made up OF all nations, and peo
pie, and kindred and tongues" " Black spirits and
white, blue spirits and gray" all mingled their coun
sells there to attain single end-an available cand
date for the Presidency"
"Now, If John Tyler had right to infer any thing
from the proceedings Of that body, it was that he
would be at liberty TO oppose Bank OF the United

ton as a body, selected well known anti Bank men

Vice Presidency, those candidates to infer that
they must change all their opinions and become Bank
men,"
Mr.. BUCHANAN goes still farther to vindicate
the President, and even endorses the Madisoni-
an, which he will, doubtless, do again.

otherwise than veto that BILL if he wished preserve

We conclude Mr.. BucBANAN's evidence with
his candid and indignant reply TO Mr. Clay, Mr..
Bair's odd friend and connexion by marriage -
