The doctrine Of the immortal Patch, that
"men can do some things as well as Others"
is not of universal application. What a Cesar
could do, an Anthony might not be able to ac-
complish. What Andrew Jackson did, John
Tyler may not safely attempt. Ofal the gods
ofGreece and Rome, Jupiter, alone welded
the thunderbolts. What could Pan or Bac-
chus even though pcrched on the top of OIym-
pus have done with the braided lightning!


But besides the difference between indivd.
uals mentally and physically, circumstances
fequently so alter cases, that some men can
n0i do some things as well as others. Take
an example in pO'nt. General Jackson vetoed
the bank bill; and yet held his party together,
moved their head and dictator, and carried out
his measures, John Tyler, "President by the
grace of God, has also vetoed bank bill; but
further than this he cannot 60 in the place of
odd Hickory" They are different men; and
furthermore, the circumstances which sur
round Tyler differ toto cello from those which
encouraged Jackson to take the same arbitrary
step. Jackson, from the moment he became
President of the United States, became also
the head and leader of his party. He was
their Dictator, and with despot's sway wheel
ed and marshalled their well-discipllned col
umns at viii. Where he chose to lead, they
were bound TO follow. When be spoke they
al kept silence; when he frownod they all
trembled, and bowed the neck submisslvey
10 his rebuke. Thus circumsfanced, what
mattered u that the majority of his party fav-
orsd a National Banki lie had but to stamp
the measure with the seal Of his condemnation
and the whole party were from that moment
forth directly opposed to such an institution.


But with Mr.. Tyler all things are changed.
The Wing party is party drawn and held
together BY principles, not by the weight Of
individual influence, or the magic of hipb
sounding names. Ii cannot be said of this or
that individual that he is the W hig party. The
Wings follow not bndly in The footsteps Of
this or that political leader. The PEOPLE are
the Wing party, and their leaders are those
whom they put forward to execute their will
and battle for their principles. The people
are the dctators and despots. Their leaders
are their servants, and are powerful only so
far as they become the instruments of the
people in carrying out their measures. What
10 the Wing party Is the detection of one mani
His treachery, fthey have elevated him TO
high station, and trusted largely to him, may
for a time embarrass and retard their move
ments; but their ranks VIII soon close I'D firm
and compact as before, and they will again
move forward steadily harmoniously, and we
trust, triumphantly, under the broad banner
oi their principles The treachery of an Arnold
threatened for a moment the prospects of the
American Revolution; but the patriot army
soon recovered from the shock, and finally
t1umphed in spite Of treachery. So will it be
with tie Wing party ROW. The detection Of
a political Arnold may for a time defeat their
plans and defer their hopes; but the injury will
not be OF long continuance. John Tyler is
not the Wing paety, nor ia he competent to
dictate to the Wing party. They owe nothing
OF their present power or Importance to him.
his are not the Atlantean shoulders which
have borne US aloft through peril and through
storm His detection, therefore, though for
the present calamity TO the country, and for
ever to be Of deep and damning infamy to him
disaster from which the party will event
Hauy recover. Let the Wings, one and all,
out stand firm by their principles; let them be
true to themselves, TO each other, and to the
country; and neither the Vaccinations Of their
enemies, the connivanee Of lukeWarm friends,
nor the peridy oftraitors can harm them. Let
them continue firm and united, and victory will
sui be theirs-an eventful, brilliant, and inn
mortal victory-L0uisUiILe Journal.
