mocracy Of the Union: -
.. We perceive. with roget, ths determines
lion Of Mr.. Tyler's friends in Philadelphia, as
indicated by meetings on the 4th issi., to run
a separate electoral ticket. and also for Con-
gress, State and county Offices. We trust and
believe this resolution will be reconsidered.--
Surely such a resolution cannot have been
produced by attacks upon Mr.. Tyler or his
friends, by any considerable portion of the par
ty supporting Polk and Dallas. That we have
few fanatics and higots in our ranks, who
would rather see Clay elected, than receive
the support Of Mr.. Tyler and his friends, is
but too true. But their number is extremely
limited they do not represent the opinions OF
either Col. Polk or Mr.. Dallas; nor do rhey
constitute one out of hundred Of the Demo.
cratic party. The great mass that concur
in the opinion, so strongly expressed by Gen.
Jackson, that Mr.. Tyler is entitled to our
| thanks and gratitude. He twice vetoed the
| bank charter, Opposed by his whole cablnet,)
and under circumstances requiring great moral
irmness. This was great and noble act,
| and saved US from the corrupt dominion Of
monster and monarch bank. He vetoed, IN
effect, the distribution bill, by adhering to the
| twenty per cent proviso, and has thus saved
us from that corrupt and corruptlng system
His earnest recommendation to refund the hne
SO nnjus,ly imposed upon Gen. Jackson by
Judge Hall, has called forth the warmest ex-
pressions, Of gratitude from the veteran hero,
and entities Mr.. Tyler to the thanks of all his
| friends. He has surrounded himself with
cabinet composed entirely of Democrats, long
and we'll tried /; and lastly, he has saved Tex
as from the grasp Of England up to this time.
But for the Intervention of Mr.. Tyler's nego'
,ation with Texas, who that has read the late
communications Of the British charge to that
court, can row doubt but that if Mr.. Tyler
had not made the move for annexation, Texas
would now be committed to England? That
Mr.. Tyler has committed some errors, is Ger.
tain; for, who is infalibIe? That he was de-
ceived and betrayed, with many other good
republicans, into temporary cooperation
with the Wings, is much to be regretted NO
doubt, no one regrets it more deeply than
NMr. Tyler himself, now that he knows the
\ Wing party. But if all are TO be prescribed,
\ who ever co.operaied with the Wing party,
how are we to elect Polk and Dallas? Mr..
|V'yler was reared republican, his friends are
almost universally republicans, and co-opera-
ted with him in 1928 and 1882, in the sup
port of Gen. Andrew Jackson, and if he has.
committed an error, no doubt fe has deeply
repenied for in the language of Scripture, he
has proved it, not by professions, but by do
| ing works meet repentance Is 1t, then,
| wise, or just, or polite, or christian, or demo.
| cratic 10 attempt to prescribe Mr.. Tyler and
his friends, anu drive them, if possible, from
/ the support of Polk and Dallas? Is there any
man, really, friendly TO their election, who pur-
| sues such a course! We think not; and IN
the name of the Democracy OF Virginia ana
| in accordance, as we believe with the wish OF
| 90 out of 100 of the Democracy Of the Union,
we invite Mr.. Tyler and his friends to re-
union with the Democroiic party; we invite
them as brethren and as equals, 10 the sup
por: of Polk and Dallas; we say TO them, well
come-thrce welcome in their return TO The
Democratic party. They come to carry Tor,
