Mr.. TYLER's WITHDRAWAL.

Mr. Tyler has published letter in which he
whdfaws his name a candidate for re-oeelion.--
He takes the occasion o syndicate the measures and
ae Of his administration, which be does IN candid,
plain and foioible manner
No person who reads this letter without prejudice
can fail 10 he impressed with the conviction that the
President has, ihrougbo bis administration, con
suited what be believed be the true interests OF his
country and acted consistently with The professions
of hs whole political career. BY those who nominn-
ted him for the Vice Presidency, for selfish and de-
ceptive purposes, he has been illuminated and
abused, because they found him too honest TO yield
himself as tool for the accomplishment of Their de-
signs, and ind pendent TO be intmdated by their
threats. His administration, without the support OF
party and embarrassed as il has been by faciious
OF pos ton has been the main satisfactory and the
President confidently appeals to the pen of impartial
history render him that justice which his colempo-
raIies have denied him.
Mr. Tylers withdrawsl gives great accession OF
strength TO the Democratic party His friends,
almost IN entire body will go into the support of
Polk and Dallas. This renders our success doubly
certain. We shall publish the letter in our next.
