PRESIDENT TYLER's LETTER.
NEW YORK.

We see that some Of the Wing editors are putting
down New York as a "doubtfup State, and some
others as Certain for Clay Let them hug this HUI
sion, if they proper and keep up their spirits as
much as they can, until the hour of the tremendous
disappointment which awaits them.
Less than year ago-at the last New York Stale
eec,on--tls Republican majority was something like
IS 600. 10 November, when there will be full
',urn OUT Mr. Folks majority will be sufficiently
decisive "fpr all useful purposes" Mr. Clay has no
more chance Of getting the thirty-sI votes of New
York than he has of eating his competitor in South
Carolina.
"In his retirement at Ashland Mr.. Clay should
SO control his neditatons to be prepared to con-
,inue them there without disturbance or molesation
to the end of his days-for his official career 'erml'
mated on bis last retirement from the Senate. lie Is
surel, too old to mediate another effort in lS4s but
were il otherwise the result would be the same, de-
ea-unitorm, certain defeat-ior he is ated never to
be President.

FOR THE MApisoNtAN

From the New York "Saats Zeitung" German
The letter Of President Tyler, in which he re.
signs his claims candidate for the Presi-
dency, and Nhich We herewith present to our read
ers, is an excellent document which fully ju,the
the high opinion entertained Of our present Presf
dent by many Of our citizens, who are not bndly
prejudiced by party feeling
This important step Of Mr. Tyler was to be ex
Pected, and would probably have been taken at ar
earlier time, II the parties had afforded him an op
portuniy Of doing with honor, instead Of ss.ains
him incontinenty, or Withholding the justice due
him for his merits

way the organ Of the Republican candidate for the

That the harmonious union Ct the old yeaer,onisp

SIN have read, with much pleasure, the prompt
refutaton by Gen. Duff Green OF the foul Islander
upon General Burleson now Of Texas, which APP
peas 10 have been published in the New York Tri-
bune upoa the authority Of the Troy Post With
Gen. Green, concur in denoune ng The statement
Of the Troy Post gross error or sheer iabrca-
tim"
General Green is perhaps mistaken in saying that
Gen. Bnisson removed from Missouri 10 Texas
But this is accounted for by the fact that al the time
he (G,n. b removed TO Texas, Gen. g resided in
Washington City, and not apprised OF Gen Is. S
particular move menis.
In 1923 visited some relations in Hardeman
county, Tennessee. Gen Burleson was then citi-
Of that county, aud thence removed TO Texas
He then spoken of by his neghbors in The high
est terms-l may say he was beloved. No man, in
leaving county, left better reputation be-
hind him. Hon. Adam X. Alexander, then repre-.
sentative in Congress, his neighbor, and though
Of late years, unders and, no has acted with the
Wing party, he will not contradict this statement 1t
will also be corroboraied by Hon. w c. Dunlap,
formerly a representative from that congressional
district, and now circuit judge; by Major John ii.
Bills, for many years Postmaster OF Bolivar, the
seat Of justice of Hardeman county; and by the
Hon. William b. Turley, at present one OF the Judges
Of the Supreme Cour OF the State OF Tennessee
All the gentlemen named resided in the same county
in which Gen Burleson once lived and am certain
they with many Others if necessary, will unite in
bearing testimony to the high character which Gen
Burleson maintained while resident among them.
Yours, respectfully,
