GREAT TYLER MEETING IN OIL
HANOVER, VIRGINIA.

On the 9th instant a great Tyler meeting
was held at Cold Harbor, in the county of Han
over, Virginia, the birth place Of Henry Clay
himself, Major w. Atkinson in the Chair
Here are some Of the resolutions, full of energy
and truth:
Viewing the present contest Of parties as some
thing to the country than the restoration Of men
to office from which they were hurled by the solemn
judgment Of the people, and believing tina, the people
are not prepared to admit that they were duped by
strs'agem in 1910, or that they acted blindIy-
l. Resolved, Therefore, That we recommend TO the
constellation OF the people of the United States
John Tyler as the candidate for the Presidency in
1874
2. Resoiped, That We have been attentive listeners
70 many debates since the spring campaign com
menced, and that our orators, though powerful in
intellect, though dwelling with arguments upon our
principles oyershadowing ALL all the miserable t.,h
OF our adyersares labor under disad vsntages incon
oeivab'e, in the blightipg influence Of the name of
MIR Van Buren,. -
Resolved, That as freemcn ss Democrats. az
men who hight for great and fundamental principIes
we soemniy invoke the politicians Of our party to
pause, ere IT tie too late, in their mad career TO
son tins matter Of our candidate with u to reflect
upon the inevitable defeat which awaits us with M
van buren,, and turn their eyes towards some o,b,r
candidate upon whom we could all unite bearing
with him the certainty ofa glorious victory
y Resolved That our preferences arc decidea,v
for John Tyler. When we reflect upon the NJ M
sacrifices be has made for dcmocracy-whcn ~, re-
hec' on the beautiful consistency OF his whole life

STILL FURTHER FROM THE PEOPLE
TYLER MEETING IN HARTFORD.


On the 10Th instant Tyler meeting was
held in Hartford, Connecticut, Joseph Pratt in
the chair, to choose delegates TO the District
Tyler Convention to be held on the 9Th inst,
in that city.
Among the resolutions we find these plain
and honestly spoken ones;
Resolved, That the movements of the people in the
States Of Ohio, Maryland, Pehhsyvanis, Virginia,
New jersey, Now York and Massachusetts, in favor
Of John Tyler, have aroused his early and firm friends
in this State to do their whole duty which we en-
gage shall be done fearless Of dic,aiion or political
man9uvring of any party.
Resoirtd, That we fully approve OF the Democra-
tic Tyler Convention 10 be holden at Baltimore on
the 9th Of May next
Resolved, That class Of men in this State should
be much avoided and despised by all honest cti.
zens a. those political traitors who, by false preten.
ces, have wound themselves into the confidence Of
the Psesident-procurcd his offices only TO abuse the
trust reposed and betray him into the hands Of his
opponents.
Rssoired, That the late elections in the States of
Mary land and Connecticut, are unerring evidences
that Mr.. Van Buren, is not the man on whom to unite
the great democratic vote but on the other hand
every political move Of the democratic party goes TO
Indicate decided preference for honest John TYLER
IL therefore the duty OF the democratic party to
nominate John Tyler to the high office he now occu.
pies.

IN scHUYLKILL COUNTY, PA.

The Democracy of schuylkil county, Penn
sylvanis, met in the borough OF Schuylk Ha-
ven, on the 9th inst, (April,) aud called John
Hill TO the Chair. The meeting was vigorous
ly addressed by Col K. Huntzinger, b. ii. Gull
din and +. Patrick, in defence Of President Ty-
Ter, and in order 10 show that Tyler alone can
lead the Democracy TO victory in the coming
contest. The following resolutions will show
the spirit that anmates the Democrats Of
Schuylkill county:
Resolved That this meeting heartily concur
in the plan Of holding Tyler Democratic National
Convention, on the fourth Monday of May, in the
city Of Baltimore.
Rssoirsd, That If the Democratic party expect to
carry Democratic candidate at the coming Pres-
dental election, II must do justice to President Tyler
Re,o'rsd, That Us the Wings have determined TO
present hlr Clay as their aniiyeto candidate, the
Democratic party il they wish to this issue tr-
and they will certainly succeed with him and his
vetoes as they did with General Jackson and his
TO in 1899.
Resoired, That we will not allow ony candidate
for the Presidency TO rifle Mr.. Tyler of his vetoes
and his capital 10 gain the high Office of Pres-
dent Of the United States. The party too just and
too high minded TO permit any one to steal Mr.. Ty-
ier's thunder.
Rssolred That ith due respect for the talents and
Democrats character Of ,xPrcsident Van Buren,, we
nevertheless mos, sincerely believe that he cannot be
elected, and ought not therefore be nominated for
the support Of the party.
Resoired, That in Pennsyvan a large body Of
Democrats who supported MIR. Van Buren, in Is40,
are new resolved to vote against him, should he be
re-nominated.
Resolved, That should Mr. Van Buren, be the nom
inec OF that Convention, We feel confident that he
cannot be elected.

'HILADrLralA, April 10, 1874.

ihIphLfhA, hPfh To- 1855
The celebration of Jeiferson's birthday by the De-
mocratic friends Of President Tyler in the Chinese
Museum, took place to-day You can form no ju,t
conception Of the mighty feeling exhibited his
occasion. Nearly 5000 freemen were present, and
they gave Old Veto their free-will offering Of ap
pause. Our Opponents who looked ia, admitted that
it was glorious meeting.
On the stage recognised among the officers
some Of the most active OF Mr.. Van Buren's friends
oo hare recently abandoned his cause a, hopeless and
have come over to Old Veto. Indeed they now all
begin to say that the Democratic party cannot sue
ceed unless il runs President Tyler upon his vetoe
as il did Gen; Jackson in 1886.
Our Van Buren, brethen attempted TO celebrate JET
ferson's Birthday at the Courthouse. II wasa
complete failure.
From this time onward the die is cast The friend,
Of Mr.. Van Buren, will have to abandon him. Daily
letters received from all quarters of the State
informing tho party here that Mr.. Van Buren, must
be withdrawn and the Veto President substituted in
his place.
Yesterday, a gentleman, of great standing in the
Democratic party, arrived in this city from the old
Democratic district in which Mr.. Pollock Wing has
just been elected over Mr.. Snyder, Democrat. He
says that never make any headrray rifho,a N,
Veto that, in Pennsy lyana, the Bank Veto has
magic about it which is irresistible and that We must
go heart and soul for Tyler, and that carry him
and nobody else Pennsylvania, he says, will give Old
Veto sweeping majority
Letters sent by every mail to Philade phia and
to Reading, the residence Of Mr.. Muheuburg all
tending to point viz the withdrawal Of Mr.
Van Buren, and the raising Of the Veto banner, or
Mr.. Muhlenberg will be swept into Van Burens po.
litcal grave
In the meeting at the Museum, we resolved that
we would either support Johnson, Wright, or Wood
bury for Vice President.
The resolutions went the death for the Veto cham
pion for the Presidency.
| can assure you, sir, that the Veto food is now
swelling over our State with might that canno, be
resisted.
The republication Of your Vindication" Of the
President has spread like fire through the dry grass
of the praries. 1t has walked up the spirit OF ress
lance to party leaders.
The issue must be Clay or Tyer-Aristocracy or
Democracy--Bank or no Bank-Texas OF no Texas
Let it come TO this and we shall not leave single
State for Henry Clay Yours,
