THE MEETING LAST NIGHT
was enthusiastic ia the extreme, and bold and
decisive in its action. The CENTRAL COMMIT
TEE was perfected and directed without delay
10 prepare an Address TO the friends OF the al
minstration throughout the United States. 1t
will be submitted at the next meeting, and pub
lished this week.
We have been permitted to publish the fol-
lowing extracts from the speeches delivered
"This Central organization should have been
effected two years ago; but il was prevented by
men of dignity, whose only powers had been
conferred on them by the PRESIDENT, whose
cause we are advocating. They Professed TO
be the friends Of the man who had made them /;
and, at the same time, they used the influence
of their Offices which they held by the tenure
of his pleasure, to interfere with, and crush the
attempts Of his disinteresled friends, who were
not in office, TO form in solid and effective pla-
lanx, the supporters Of himself, and the defend
ers of his Administration.
'But i, is not yet too late. Most Of US, if not
all of US, have banded together with the firm re-
solve to effect the triumph Of JUsTIc E, or TO fail
and fall by the powers Of injustice In this
movement we will bow TO the authority OF no
man living, but one. Let any one else interpos,'
and the conflict shall be mortal-poli,lcally-
one or The other of the parties. While we de
mdnd non-interierence on the part Of those
who do not approve of the movement-we only
ask CO operation frcm those who do. We shall
soon be enabled TO know (which is which"
here and elsewhere. When trampled on, we
will find out how TO sting.
{ at has been asked, what are your objects
object is 10 do justice TO John Tyler. He saved
the country from all the horrors of National
Bank-horrors not less appalling than the de.
vasiations Of al invading army, marking its
progress with pillage and hames-and The lead
ers of both parIies-F ederal and Globe leaders
-assail HIN for il JUSTICE must be done, even
If the heavens fall" John Tyler's Admins
ration is eminenty, pre-eminenty successful,
IN every ramifcalion-and yet he is denounced
by the Boltses aud the Biairs! Justice must
be done. Such is our object. BE they few or
many, our object and determination is to have
all those who agree with Us, organize, organize,
ORGANIZE, in every State, and appoint their
delegates to the Baltimore Convention. What
the Convention will do, is not for me TO say
Ii may be safely presumed that the delegates
will, themselves, know what is best to be done
and will do something They will not meet to
do nothing. They must be men in whom the
Administration parry can conhde, and the party
will doubtless be prepared to put in execution
whatever they may decide upon. No; it is not
for 10 say phat the Convention will dove
