The settlement of the Electoral
NnRNliOn.

Even iair.minded Democrats know that
the electoral question was finally settled
in u legal manner and by u method which
leading Democrats in Congress helped to
devise. Men Of both parties, TOO, are
commencing the course Of the man whom
this method Of settlement placed in the
Presidential chair. Is it wise, then, for
the Democratic party OF u great State to
talk about this settlement as "a high
crime2" and is 1t anything but boyish for
them, when forced to commend what the
Administration has done, to seek to de-
Str6y tue effect Of their praise by hanging
u Democratic label on it?-Nsp York

was the biograper of Chief Justice fancy, but he
was better known in the field OF metaphysical lite
nature. He began as writer for the Princeton
Reuieao in 1885, and continued to write for the Re.
vteo until the year 1862. He was perhaps tie
chief expositor of the Philosophy of Sir William
Hamilton, in America. Sir William, becoming sc-
quainted with MIR. Tyler'S writings sent him bis
works as last as they were published, and after the
death eff the great philosopher, Lady Hamilton
sent portrait OF her husband to Mr.. Tyler, and
which has since remained in his possession, and
which is very beautiful and faithful likeness -
Professor Tyler was in his sixty eighth year when
