PRESIDENTS BY PRoMoTIoN.-The Vice.
Presidency is an unimportant Office per %,
but as the incumbent may be promoted in
the twinkling of an eye frcm the post Of
chairman Of the Senate to that Of chief Of
the nation, no man should be nominated for
the second office in the gift Of the people
who is not believed to be competent to per-
form satisfactorily the duties Of the first
Our first President by promotion, John
Tyler, was but sorry specimen of chief
magistrate. He tied the party that elect
ed him and disgusted that to which he went
over. Infirn Of purpose, and of a narrow,
shallow intellect. he was . mere puppet in
the hands of political wire. pullers, and they
played him very unsatisfactory to the
nation at large. In the locality where he
resided, he was known in Virginia parlance,
previous to his election, as "pretty good
quarter horse" in other words, as man oi
some quickness, but no depth. When the
South revolted he tried to figure as promi.
nent rebel leader, made turgid speeches
and wrote magniloquent letters, but was
soon showed aside by stronger minded
traitors. He vas on the point Of being
utterly forgotten when the public were re-.
minded Of the fact that he had once
existed, By the announcement that be va.
| dead!
! Millard Fillmore, who succeeded to the
Presidency on the death of General Taylor
was popular as chief magistrate, and de
servedly so. His policy was conservative
and, upon the whole, wise and judicious.-
The country has had few more sagacioul
Presidents than Mr.. Fillmore.
! We have now third Executive by pro
motion, and it remains to be seen whethe
he is the man for the crisis. There can b.
no doubt, We think, about his intellectua
capacity. Let US hope that his mora
attributes are Of as high an order as hi
mental qualifications. Ifso, he will merit
and will assuredly receive, the support Q
the honest and patriotic Of all parties.
