"TYLER HELP Us. GLOBE Help

Ihe GloDe OIL yesterday contained an edito-
rial attack on the President, under the tile of
"Tyler Help" We will not notice the string
Of malignant fctions which the article contain
ed, further than TO say that the assertions were
all without the slightest foundation in truth
for it would be work of supererogation TO ex-
pose he falsity Of each of the fabricated charges
found from day to day in that unprincipled jour
nal. But we would be quite willing TO enter
into discussion of the relative value of ely
Ter help" and Globe help, received by the
Republican party during the last two years.
From the Secretary of State, under Mr.. Van
Buren's Administration, to the most humble
supporter of the Administration, the fact that
the Globe had to be regarded as the organ Of the
party, was considered the greatest of mistor-
tunes For ten or twelve long years it had
hung like pampered incubus about the party,
receiving about $500 day from the U. S.
Treasury-upwards of million in all-durng
which time lis sole occupation was to run down
and worry to death every hgh-minded and no.
norable Democrat who hesitated to wear the
collar of some particular leader. 1t was the
well fed blood hound Of "a certain clique, whose
business it was TO watch the party organization
and to tear in pieces any man who dared to
kick out of the traces. Those who merely fall
tered, or deviated in the slightest degree from
the prescribed line marked out for them, were
OILY scarlhed and bruised by the teeth of the
tormenter, provided they would return to their
servitude, and promise to do better in future
but those whose feelings of independence inn
PEELED them to reject the thradom, were always
marked for utter destruction, aud were apt to be,
sooner or later, politically annhilaed. AS for
collecting recruits, such thing never was heard
of-never attempted by the Globe. 1t never
thought of conciating and converting an oppo-
nen 1t was only fitted by nature 10 awe into
subsection the refractory members of a power
full party, which il had no hand in forming. In
deed, its editor opposed Gen. Jackson until his
election certain. AS long as General Jack
sons mighty name brought recruits to the party,
to fill the places of those torn in pieces by the
bloodhound, the party knew dimnution.--
But, after the old Hero retired from the field, it
soon became apparent that the name of his sue
cessor did not possess sufficient charm TO sup
ply the vacuum occasioned by the enormous
consumption OF his ban-dog. Every year thou
sands were sIten other thousands fearing that
the little occasional deviations they had made
from the prescribed lines of the party were re-
membered by the blood hound and imagining
every ndistnc sound was the distant baying
Of the sanguinary execuoner Oh their trail, has
tened 10 the standard of Harrison and Tyler
the latter having declined the collar subsequen:
TO Mr.. Calhoun. No one was at loss to know
what would be the ultimate result of this ever
diminishing and never-lncreasing process Mr..
Van Buren, was defeated by such majority
as had never been known before.
Such has been the value Of Globe help to the
party. Its help in the next campaign would be
intellectually advantageous-to the Wings. lis
innumerable and continual quarrels with Re
pubiicdns would certainly drire important ac-
cessions TO the Wing party.
But the Republican party will manage to dis
pense with its services. We have not seen
Democratic editor during the last year-and we
have seen a hundred-wbo approve its course.
We have not seen a Democratic member of
Congress during the last six months-and we
have seen scores-who has not declared his in
tenion TO vote against its editor, if he should be
a candidate for Pinter.
All the Republicans who refused TO wear the
Globes collar, and SUPP orled Harrison and Ty-
Ter in 1910, will certainly oppose any candidate
who will make the Globe his organ. They
know TOO well the blood-hound's ability to scent
an old track, ar that the animal never forgets
or forgives. Every Republican who voted
against Mr. Van Buren, in 1910, is married.
His Van Buren, neighbors have long since sent
his name TO The Globe office. Repentance will
not do; submission will not answer; the penal
~ Of disobedience and rebellion must be
paid TO the ultermost Erhng. Even the
vetoes did not atone for Mr.. Tyler's sin of be-
ing elected contrary to the wishes Of the Globe.
The man who expects that any dereliclon, how
ever trivial, will be forgotten-any offence how
ever slight, will be forgiven-is doomed to
fearful disappointment, should the Globe ever
get him in lis power
We are not disposed TO attach any excessive
value to "Ty Ter help" to induce the Republican
party to seek it. Mr. Tyler and his friends are
Republicans independent Republicans-and
will be found where their duty calls them. Nor
will we dwell upon the magnitude and impor-
lance of the 'help" they have already rendered
We are content to know that they are strong
enough, and resolute enough, TO chain the blood
hound Of party, sooner or later.
MARSHALL BERTRAND arrived in Boston, Friday
morning, from New York, accompanied by his son
Capt. Napoleon, and took lodgings at the fremont
House. The city authorities made arrangements to
give him public reception worthy of his distin-
gushed position and his well earned fame,
