,he present concerted and determin, movement
10 saw emphatically and boldly, that such
an individual, if he shall still persist in his oppo
sition TO our organization, is not triend-is MOI
trusted-and we are called upon to warn ouT
friends against his devices. He could have no
other object in view than the elevation (the
eou;valents of course ncuded) Of the man
whose avowed organ has been heaping unmea-
sured abuse on Mr.. Tyler for the last two years.
After such warning, if there shall still be any,
having hitherto protested TO be the friends Of
the Administration, who will nevertheless sim
adhere to the fortunes of such a counsellor, they
will do it understandingly, and must be prepar' d
TO share his fate When they shall be removed
from the ranks Of the "boid and true" support
ers of Mr.. Tyler, we doubt not their places can
be easily filed. Acts, not professions, Will be
hereafter required by that portion OF the Tree
People Of our country who are resolved 10 make
head in favor of the President.
But we do not expect that many individuals
Of the character described will be found IN New
York. We doubt not that both in the city and
country, wherever the friends of the Admlnis'ra-
ton may have been induced, as above minated,
to dsband, The Sincere friends OF the cause will
Immediately rally again. Indeed, we have the
most cheering accounts, from many sections OF
the State, of the disposition of the People 10
make a formidable demonstration on the plan
pursued in Ohio. and Pennsylvania. We would
echo back to them words of encouragement;
we would direct their attention TO the pros
porous and happy condition of our common
country, as the result of the wise and
patriotic policy of the Chief Magistrate, whose
acts they are called upon to vindicate. And
we would also have them reflect upon the fact,
that however much others may exert themselves
in behalf Of another man, all the signs of the
times concur to demonstrate that Mr.. Tyler is
the only one who can prevent the elevation Of
Mr. Clay. The vEToEs must not be condemned
by the establishment of another Bank.
The eyes Of the friends of Mr.. Tyler in TWEEN
ty-fve States are on their Republican brethren
in New York. They have heard that the friends
of the Administration IN New York were used
by some Machiavelian p ltician for his
own exclusive benefit Such an mputalion
will. we doubt not be speedily dspelled, by a
larger aud more enthusiastic rally than has yet
anywhere been made. Those-those few
who will not unite in the movement, because
they prefer some Subordinate to the Chief, will
not, cannot, throw any serious obstacle in the
way. They have only to svow them
selves, and show themselves, and they
will be disposed Of in a proper manner; for
our correspondents inform us that no vacil-
lation, no hating, will be tolerated by those en-
gagged in the contemplated movement in the
Empire state-and we reciprocate the assurance
