Having seen something concerning letter Of
Mr. Abel, in reference TO the Presidents life
said to have been addressed to Mr.. Eaton, as
well as others, and endorsed by Mr.. J. Tyler
Jr, we give the following from The New York
Express, which, we presume, puts The matter
at rest. We give, in addition, short letter to
the Editor of the Woodstock paper from Mr.
Tyler, which was published in the Boston
Times;
WASHINGTON CRY, Dec. 18th, lsi3.
To the Editors Of the n: Y. Express
GESrLExEN: Your correspondent in this city, in
his letter Of the 9Th inst am sorry to say has done
Mr. John Tyler, Jr., great injustice in what he has
stated in relation to the distribution Of Abell's
life Of the President So far from Mr. Tyler hay
ing sanctioned any such letter that said to have
been addressed by Mr.. Abel TO some unknown per-
son, know that he strictly enjoined it upon MIR.
Abell that he should leave the matter entirely open
with those whom be might address, and not in any
manner endeavor to coerce any TO subscribe, or
to dictate the manner in which he should promote the
distribution Of the work but that every one should
be left free, entirely free without compulson TO pur-
sue that course which his feelings and judgment
should suggest. ! know Mr.. Tyler well enough to
state that he would never have authorized Mr.. Abel
to write such letter as that published by YOU. In
fact, know that MIR Tyler, far from this cnjoin
ed it upon Mr. Abel, before he would allow his name
to be used for the promotion of his wishes, that
neither politics the Administration were to be in
any way connected with the matter.
Mr. Abel pledged himself that he would in no
manner commit Mr. Tyler or the President, but that
he only desired the influence which the name Of Mr..
Tyler might possibly exert over the distribution of
the work. among the friends of the President in his
(Mr. A.'s) behalf as an author. IL Mr. Abel has
written this letter, il without the knowledge Of
Mr.. Tyler; you will see from Mr. TyIer's letter to
Mr.. Kennedy the only one addressed by him at all,
how entirely above improper motives he is pre-.
scented.
1t is not unreasonable that Mr.. Tyler should feel
interest in connection with his father and the
personal abuse which has been so unsparngly heap
ed upon him, and consequently such letter as thai,
addressed by him to Doctor Kennedy cannot be oh
jecled TO.
cannot believe that you would do Mr.. Tyler, or
any else, act Of wful injustice and therefore
you will MOI hesitate thus to repair the breach which
you have made.
Finally, | would ask you, "if not impertnent, in
what manner the life of Mr.. Van Buren, or that
of MIR. Clay circulated" among the people, unless by
the friends Of those gentlemen. c. r.. w

VtNHlS preparation has now stood the tes, Of
several years trial, and is confidently recon.
'ncnded as a safe and eifectual medicine for ex
peiiing worms from the system. The unexam-
pied success that has attended its administration
IN every case where the patient was really aflct-
cd with worms. certainly renders it worthy the at
tention Of Physicians.
The proprietor has made it point TO ascertain
the result Of its use in such cases as came within
his knowledge and obscrva,ion-and he invaria-
oy found l. to produce the most salu,ary effects
not unirequently after nearly all the ordinary pre-.
2aratons recommended for worms had been preyi
ously resortod to without any advantage. This fact
Is attested by tho certificates and statements of
hundreds of respectable persons in different parts Of
the oountry--and should induce families always

all articles usually executed at foundrios, and of
manufacturing the Livingston county Plow. This
pillow was first used in the county of Rotkbridre
out little more than one year ago since then,
many OF our most intelligent farmers who have
had an opportunity Of testing it, have given the
strongest testimony of its value as a cheap, eff
Client, and strong article-indeed it is believed
that all without single exception, who have
purchased and tried this pillow during the past
year, have boon highly pleased with its operation.
and have been generally convinced that il will
soon supercede all olhe now in use. The pat
terms which the subscriber now has, were made
BY the Patentee during the past year, expressly
Tor the State Of Virginia and are believed to be
an improvement upon the form of his first pattern;
particularly in having stronger turning power.

pillow, and all the patterns for the self sharpening
