THE PRESIDENT WITHOUT A PARTY.

Wien President Tyler performed that great ser.
vice to his country and to the Democratic party in
vetong the Bank bills and was left alone, he was
tainted with being without party TO sustain him in
his administration of the Government But now
that nearly three years have elapsed and he has been
successful and gSen great satisfaction TO the
people as any other, his enemies begin TO perceive
that by the moral power OF his correct principles
by the ability and talent with which he has sur.
rounded himself in the various Departments he is
able 10 get on without a party, and with the most
vrulent opposition from every quarter directed
against his Administration. The next step taken by
tie ulta part,ans IS 10 combine 10 esk up his Cab
inet-to attempt TO cmbarrass him by rejecting his
nominations, and the keeping a continual change in
the principal officers upon whom the President IS 10
rely for council and support in the aIduous and re.
sponsble duties Of hi. high station. But notwith.
standing these upwiss and unpatrolic attempts to
clog the wheels of Government we the Pr sident
rise above his enemies and with the promotion Of the
good of the country and the prosperity Of the people
as the ruling objects Of his Administration he is EN-.
uently successful, and everywhere from the honest
hearts Of the country goes up the voice Of approval
OF his acts and the condemnation Of IN, Sc factous
men who would sacrifice all upon the altar Of per-
sonal ambition and partisan spite.
The present session Of the United States Senate
has been characterized by the repeated exercise OF

DEMOCRATIC SENTIMENT.

A short time since, when The Globe Jacobins
wire sneerng at the Presidents Democracy,
one or two influential Democrats in Baltimore,
who had supported Mr. Van Buren, in 1910,
determined TO prove, beyond dispute, that the
prohigate politicians who denounced the Pres-
dent, were not the authorized organs Of the
People, and at once procured the signatures of
their Democratic neighbors to the declaration
published in another part Of this days paper.
We understand that we may expect in short
time, to receive similar one from the same

OIL OF TANNIN,
OR LEATHER RESToRER.

A NEW CHEMICAL DISCOVERY.
Most people know that skins ana hides are convert
ed into leather by the use of Tannin extracted from
certain banks, SC.
When the force and strength of the Tannin is worn
out leather becomes dead hard dry, brittle cracked
covered with crust, &c. THIS ALL KNOW To re-
store them life, softness moistness, strength smooth
ness, and ramove all crust fly or bliser-restore the
tannn This substance the leather never can receive
the second time; but the whole virtues of it are in
this article, the OIL OF TANNIN-which pene-
traes the sfest and hardest leather if it has been
twenty years in use and if it tears easily with the
fingers, imparts at oncea strength that is utterly
incredible until seen. 1t becomes like new leather.
In all respects, with delightful softness and polish
and makes all leather completely and perfectly i'm
pervous to water-particularly boots, shoes, carri-
agetops, harness, hose trunks and in fact all things
made of leather, giving splendid polish even high
er than new leather has, and at feast doubling its
wear and durability, in whatever manner the leather
is used THESE ARE FACTS,
Those who will may wear old shoes, groan with
corns ride with old carriage-topshave old harness
and throw them away half used-look filthy them
selves and all about them---expend double what is
necessary for articles Of leather to thor hearts, con-
tent, for what we care, If their preiudces are so
strong they will GOT try new discovery. We have no
avors to ask of them, they the greatest sufferers
aud we beg Tor nobody's custom or patronage. Now,
