The New York herald., 1844-07-12

dlcations some days ago of Tyler meeting to be
held In this city. A certain man, bent on lmmor-
tality. by the name of Smith, either John Smith or
some OF his relatives, TO be the orator OF the
occasion The meeting has been postponed TO
some future day, and perhaps altogether.
Now, if this meeting ever comes of, we shall
not only be prepared to report it, but shall also
be prepared TO expose and develope some of the
most curious, rich, racy and astounding facts
that have ever been laid before a fun-admirlng
public. In the course of these developments
we shall tell who it was that brow-beat and
forced the Baltimore Tyler Convention TO the
reckless and premature nomination OF John
Tyler-who opposed that hasty nomination, and
advised TO await the action of the regular
Democratic Convention, then simultaneously
sltting-who being wings, acted under whig in
fuence, and what were their immediate motives
and their ultimate designs-who threw dust in
President Tyler's eyes, and what that dust was
who forced the President to accept the ill-advised
nomination, and with what pretences and argu-
ments-who did all the thinking, and who did all
the talking, and who paid all the expenses.-
We shall also tell who it is that "settled
Mr.. Tyler's policy" for him then, and who
now persists in driving him and his fi .nds reck-
lessly upon rocks and qucksands, and who de-
nounce all that dare to form an independent opin-
ion-who they were that started the movement IN
this city for another Tyler meeting-who wanted
to make that ratification meeIing," as they cal
led II, to ratify the nomination of John Tyler ant
who opposed any meeting for such an oblect-who
are compelling John Tyler to assume a threatening
attitude towards the Polk and Dallas party-who
lay down conditions of union, and what those
conditions are-who it is that have created a divl-
sion in the Tyler party and what their object was
in creating it-who controlled the aurora up to
last Saturday, who now control it, and why it ha>
changed hands-who now own it, who is to edit
it, and on what principes-what political chques
since last Monday have dned together in this
city, wined together, and drank brandy smashers
together. until three O'Clock in the morning
who they are that believe that Henry Clay can be
more easily and certainly elected il Tyler, by run
ming an independent ticket, shall Withdraw many
votes as possible from the Polk and Dallas party
who now wish to control the Custom House pa
tronage, and dictate terms and line of conduct to
the present able Collector-and how egregiously
they mistaken who think to impose upon him
who they are, and all their management, who hope,
under pretence of doing justice to John Tyler, to
defeat Polk and Dallas, and elect Henry Clay, and
be retained in office as reward for their chicanery
and tire cherry.
All these developments, and many more to which
we already have the key, to unlock at our leisure,
we shall be prepared to make when the aforesaid
meeting comes off Everything is in pickle
Where IS John Smith?
The MORMON MAssAcRE.-Accounts confirma
tory OF the fact that Joe Smith and his brother were
actually massacred-murdered in cold blood, con-
tnue to reach us from the West. There can be
doubt that political feeling entered largely into
the popular excitement in that region against the
Mormons. II was feared by the Wings that the
Nauvoo people would give material aid to Polk
This affords another and most melancholy illusra-
lion Of the pernicous, demoralizing, brutalizing
influence of the party presses, which are daily III
flaming the passions of the people by the vilest ano
most acendiary TRADES against their respective op
ponents.
Besides, Nauvoo was very favoraby situated
and from its natural advantages combined with
those created by the Prophet, under his singulsi
government was very rapidly increasing in popula
ton and trade, which excited the jealousy and en-
w Of the people Of Warsaw, busine IS place lii
tie below Nauvoo. The people Of Carthage, ALSO
another trading village or town in the Interior
were stimulated by the same feelings to oppose the
Mormons. These feelings Of enmity arising from
accursed envy and ayarce, were constantly infam-
ed by blackguard paper in Warsaw called the
"Signal."
The conduct Of the people of Illinois and Missou-
ri towards the Mormons has been brutal and detes-
table in the extreme, and discovering the same sp-
rit tha, burned the witches at Salem and the Con
vent at Boston.
The GIANT AND GIANTEss, LATELY AT THE AMERI-
CAN MUSEUM, BUT NOW IN ELDRIpGE ST. PRISON
