That TYLER MOVEMENT After great deal of
discussion and private canvassing, and secret as
sembng, and all sorts of efforts of various parties,
the friends of Captain Tyler in this city have at
last come forth with movement of most grati-
fyng and popular character. Here il IL, from the
organ of yesterday -
TYLtR DisNsR.-A publc'dinner will be given, at the
Shakespeare Hotel in this city, Friday Evening next
President Tyler.
All those who feel DESTROYS of paying merited honors
patnot and statesman to whom the country is indebted
lot the settlement OF perpexing controversies with To-
reign powers and the orgnaton of calculated
the interests and promote the prosperity our
common country procure tickets by applying to ell
ther OF the following gentlemen belonging to the Com
mittee OF Arrangements -
ANsON HERRICK WILLIAM G. WOOD,
rHRE apRs Ko GAY G ax FAR RNMhnN
WIN. H. MlCHAELs, GEO D. STRONG
A. G. BENSON.
BY this it will be seen, that the Tyler party after
weighing the balance of probabilities, have at last
arrived at the conclusion, that instead of making 1t
public movement, to make it a table movement.
Instead of the play of eloquence and rhetoric at
popular meeting, they will have the play OF knives
and forks Mt the Shakespeare Hotel. Instead of
holding a meeting which would be broken up by
the rowdes OF other factions, the Tyler men will
stake their ease at their own inn quatf the bowl to
their success, and drink the Captains health with
every degree of peace and comfort. This is the
wisest thing they have ever done, and shall
give every aid to the kitchen politicians who are
endeavoring to get this affair up in the best style
One thing, however, strikes in this. The
committee who have projected this, appear to be
utterly abandoned by the principal office holders
in this city. Where are Mr.. Curtis, and Mr. Still
well, and Mr. Graham? Echo answers, where?
They seem all to take the matter perfectly cool
1t is, however, probable, that they will attend the
dinner, as a great many questions besides canvass
back ducks will be discussed on the occasion. We
understand that this movement has been got up en-
trely by Mr. Geo d. Strong who is the master spirit
of the Tyler party here, and it is highly probable
that on this occasion will have most impor-
tant revelation, respecting various matters and
things connected with Wall street. No doubt, Mr..
Strong, being one of the committee, will make
a speech, and we shall certainly expect from
him full and accurate account of his connexion
with the Commercial Bank and North American
Trust Company. 1t will come very apropos at this
time. Mr.. Graham also can give second edition
nice little, spicy, afte-dinner narrative of his
operations in the North American Trust Company
From Mr. Benson and others we can obtain ex
ceedingly amusing and well-seasoned bits of
speeches in the way of explanations of the best
way to dupe and gull Chief Magistrate in the
matter of contracts for beef and mutton-get hold
OF the spoiis and prevent the organization of par
ty which might effect change in the disposition
of the spois. We think there is thus, in
all conscience, enough prospect to provoke the ap
petite of any reasonable man, and that this dinner
promises to be one of the choicest affairs of the
season.
The STREETs.-During the last quarter of CEN
fury, or the memory of the Coolest inhabitant," it
is now universally admitted that the streets have
not been in filthy and abominable state as at
this moment. II Is not any one street-any retired
street-any by-lane-or any single thoroughfare
that is obnoxious to this sweeping condemnation
Ghe only thing they have got in the sweeping way
for the last year,)-but every street in the city,
short or long, wide or narrow from the Battery to
Union Square, and from river to river, are in
state of filth, dirt and nastiness, compared with
~ nv r 'ieas VI eV..s.~niinople are positively
decent. Broadway II is rho -,
the most beautiful thoroughfare on the continent,
is, of course, in the most abOminable condition On
fine day the clouds of dust and sand are equal to
those raised by Sirocco in the deserts of Arabia,
and on a rainy day the mud and dirt present such
obstacles, that it is altogether impossible to effect
passage without some mechanical contrivance.
1t Is on account solely of the ladies, that we
complain, for this the two hundred and fiftieth time
the men are so accustomed, nowadays, to all
sorts of dirty ways of getting through the world
that they're not greatly TO be piued. But the
ladies' dear creatures it would rend the heart of
any, but locofoco Common Council man, to see
them struggling through the clouds of dust-bravey
-ncounerng them up town, with a smile, and a
remark that it doesn't signify much''-sti
meeting them without many murmurs, as they
struggle on, and only yielding in despair when op.

horrors of Broadway. Their sufierings on "mud-
