PRESIDENr TYLER-HIS LET lERi

On the first page of TO days paper, in conformity
with the promise in postscript Of last number, will
he found letter from President Tyler IN which he
tenders his decllnaon a candidate for the Presi-
dency at the next election. This is what
have recently anticipated the part of this distn-
gushed patriot, knowing his pure devotion to the i'm
mutable principles OF democracy, and approaching
his disposition t. coNcILlATE and UNITE the whole
party against our common federal enemy. III is
magnanmous withdrawal-the voluntary act Of pure
patriotism and is precisely IN accordance with the
spirit which actuaed the every act OF MIR Tyler since
he assumed the dlgnhed station and arduous duties
Of Chief Magistrate OF the Union. Through all his
trlas-amds the vile aud yndictlve ISLANDERS OF his
caumnators-ue stood firmly by John Tyler and we
lee proud that We lent our feeble influence 10
favor the views and carry Out the primer Pies of
great statesman and pure republican Like Gen
Jackson, he could neither be corrupted by the syco
phantic fattery of emagogues, driven from his
course by the ISLANDERS OF disappointed aud vlndlcye
opponents He ayowed principles, and knowing
hem TO be right he supported them at all hazards.
With honest purpose AID clear conscience he con
ironted his desperate opponents IN the federal SEN
ate and consoed himself that the effects of his official
course of policy would be submitted 10 the future
expressed opinions OF The people 1t was the trbu-
nal he admired and relied upon, and time will soon
prove the sagaclty of his well disciplined Judgment
Our motto was-"JUsTlCE TO JoHN TYLER; y and all
we claimed for him viii be conceded Justly his
own, earned by unwayering attachment TO hose
doctrines OF democracy which he had mOIbed and
cherished In the Jelersonian school Of the Old Do
mlnlon.
But he has withdrawn from the canvass and in
that decination he will again have incurred the
lignant abuse of his Wing enemies. Let them vent
their malignant ieeln for such is their natural and
usual vocation but the grateful feelings Of the demo-
cracy will duly appreciate their calumnies and in de
spite Of fasehood and SANDER he will be found rising
still higher and higher in the affections of the people
With President ~ Ter, unite in the good cause.
With him, shall be found battling gainst Clay and
National Bank, and sganst any and every preteH Of
federalism, no matter what party cognomen it may
assn ne to deceive the people. We congratulate the
Democracy of the Union upon this &c fsacricinl
demonstration Of Mr.. Tylers devotion TO pure prn
ciples, and we know that they will gratefully
knowledge the motives which actuated him IN thus
patrio icay avowIng his present course and deermi-
nation. The Sentinel upon the watchtower may now
safely cry-"ALL's WELL
This letter Of withdrawal must be conceded to be
the production of fertile and ingenious mind-pure
in its dcton, elevated in It's sentImen $, and deter
mined upon carrying out the positions II has assumed
the polar stars OF correct principles. II is plaln
and yet the characteristics of distinguished states
man marks authorship in every particular; aud
while Mr.. Tyler pledges himself true to the Of
annexation, he unequyocay expresses himself OPP
posed in any shape, to the chartering of National
Bahk-"the first, the last fond hope of federalism.
Lei every peruse II carefully IL will prove
textbook for many democrats, and may prove an en-
cellenl guide TO them when surrounded by the deu-
sivesymDos of whggery.
