It is with profound and poignant regret
that we find ourselves railed uomji to in.
\oke your attention to this point. Upon
the great and leading measure touching
thisqucstion our anxious endeavors to respend
to the earnest prayer of the nation
have been frustrated Sy an act ns unlooked-for
as it is to he lamented. We grieve
to say to you that, by the exercise of that
power in the Constitution which has ever
been regarded with'suspicion, and often
with odium, by the People?a power
which we had hoped was never to be exhibited,
on this subject, by a Whig President?we
have been defeated in two attempts
to create a Fiscal Agent, which <
the wants of the country had demonstra- j'
fed to us, in the most absolute form of
proof, to be eminently necessary and j
proper in the present emergency. Twice
have we, with the utmost diligence and
? ?- - ? ?_... ...J n nl-m fur f lip ml. i ;
(ioji'Ksraimii, mmuicu a pnm ? .
lection, safe-keeping, and disbursing of!
the public moneys, through the agency of
a corporation adapted to that end. and
twice has it been *our fate to encounter
the opposition of the President, through
the application of the veto power. The
character of that veto in such case, the
circumstances in which it was ndminister- <
ed, and the grounds upon which it has :
met the decided disapprobation of your I
friends in Congress, are sufficiently ap- ?
parent in the public documents and the ;
deludes relating to it. This subject has !
acquired a painful interest with us, and j
will doubtless acquire it with you. from
the unhappy developments with which it j
accompanied. We are constrained to
say that we find no ground to justify us in
the conviction that the veto of the President
has been interposed on this question
solely upon conscientious and well-considered
opinions of constitutional scruple
as to his duty in the case presented. On
the contrary, too many proofs have been j
fi?rcedjupon our obk.nration to leave as fie
from the apprehension that the President j
has permitted himself to be beguiled into
on opinion that, by this exhibition of his
prerogative, he might be uble to divert the
nnlicv of his Administration into a chan
r~'?j ; , .
nef which should load to new political
combinations, and accomplish results
which must overthrow the present di vis- j
ions of party in the country, and finjdiy '
produce aatate of things which tl?os? who
elected him. at least, have never contemplated.
We have seen, from an early pe*
riod of the session, that the Whig party
did not enjoy the confidence of the Presi* '
dent. With mortification we have ob-1
served that his associations more sedulous*
Iv aimed at a free communion with those
who ha*e been busy to prostrate our pur- '
poses rather than those whose principles ,
seemed to be most identified withthe power j
by which he was elected. Wo have seen }
season to believe that he has permitted !
himself to he approached, counselled, and
influenced by those who have manifested
least interest in the success of Whig men- j
sures. What were represented to be his j
opinions and designs have been freely, |
and even insolently put forth in certain!
|K>rtions, and those not the most reputable,
of the public press, in a manner that ought
to he deemed offensive to his honor, as it
certainly was to the feelings of those who
was believed to be his friends. In the earn* 1
est endeavpr manifested by the members <
of the Whig party in Congress to ascer*
tain specifically the Presidents notions in j
reference to the details of such a bill rela* i
ting to a Fiscal Agent as would be likely |
to meet his approbation, the frequent <
changes of his opinion and the singular i
want of consistency in his views have
balHed his best friends, and rendered the i
hope ofadjustment with bim impossible. |
Congress, early in the session, called
upon the Secretary of the Treasury for
the plan ofa Fiscal Agent: the result of i
this call was a bill which was reported in
detail, with an argument in its favor, and 1
it was, as wc had a right to regard it, re* 1
ceived bv all as the bill of the President, i
I >t fact, it was known to contain provisions,
in reference to the assent of "the
States, which corresponded with the private
opinion of no member of the Cabinet.
This bill the President had even informed
more than one member of the
f louse he would be willing to sign if passod
by Congress : yet it contained pro-1
vision for local discounting, in regard to:
ku V i>tn M ft rms his oil. !
^ K)' IV ilia f V?w ?? <? ?
jertion lo be altogether insuperable. The j
President has subsequently declared that I
tins was not his measure, and that when '
he said he would sign this bill he had not j
read it. The plan of an Exchange Bank,
such as was reported after the first Veto
the President is understood by more than '
one member of Congress to whom he ex.
pressed his opinion, to have regarded as a
favorite measure. It was in view of this !
opinion, suggested as it is in his first Veto,
and afier using every proper etfort to as- !
certain his precise views upon it, that the
Committee of the House of Represents. j
tives reported their second bill. It made
provision for a bank without the privilege
of local discounting, and was adapted, as
closely as possible, to that class of mer.
cantile operations which the first Veto!
Message describes with approbation, and |
which that paper specifically illustrates 1
reference to the dealings in the ex.changes"
of the Bank of the (Tni'cd 3iates
j in 1833, which the President affirms "a,
mounted to upwards of one hundred mil;
lions of dollars." Yet this plan, when it
, was submitted to him, was objected to on
,a new ground. The last Veto has nar.
, rowed ritbe question of a hank down to the
basis .qf the sub-Treasury scheme, and it
;is obvious from the opinion of that mes
jaige tlmtthe country is not to expect any i
thiug bettor than the exploded sub-Trea jury.
orsoaae measure of the same character,
-from Mr. Tyler.
Jn tire midst of all these varieties of op.
.ioiorii an .ifCjpenetrable mystery seemed
Jo hang,over the whole question. There

*'r- *<* !? _ ?>*v. :-;r ' ^
ment as ought to characterize the inter.
course of a President and his friends, and
the Inst persons in the Government who
would seem to have been entrusted with
his confidence on these embarrassing top.
icswcre the constiiutionni advisers which
the laws had provided for him.
In this review of the position into which
the lute events have thrown the Whig
party, it is with profound sorrow we look
to the course pursued bv the President.
He has wrested from us one of the best
fruits of a long and painful struggle, and j
the consummation of a glorious victory: j
he has even perhnps thrown us once more
upon the field of political strife, not weak*
cned in numbers, nor shorn of the support
r>f the country, hut stripped of the arms
which success had placed in our hands,
and left again to rely upon that high patriot
ism which for twelve years sustained
us in a conflict of unequalled asperity,
and which finally brought us to the fulfil,
ment of those brilliant hopes which he has
ione so much to destrov.
In this state of things, the Whigs will
naturally look with anxiety to the future,
ind inquire what are the actual relations
between the President and those who
brought him into power; and what, in the
[minion of their friends in Congress.
diould be their course hereafter. On
(>oth of these questions we fee! it to be our
fiity to addrcssyou in perfect frankness
and without reserve, but, at the same time,
with duo respect to others.
In regard to the first, we are constrain,
d totsay, that the President, bv the
course he has adopted in respect to the
application of the veto power to two suecessive
hank charters, each of which
there was just reason to believe would
meet bis approbation; by his withdrawal
r?f confidence from his real friends in Con.
jjri's* and from the members of his Cabi
net; hv his bestowal of it upon others not.
withstanding their notorious opposition
to lecding measures of his Administration,
has voluntarily separated himself from
those by wtiose exertion arid suffrages he
was elevated to that office through which i
he reached his present exalted station.
The existence of this unnatural relation
is as extraordinary as the annunciation of
it is painful and mortifying. What are
the consequences ami duties which grow
out of it ?
The first consequence is, that those who
brought the President into pow. r can he
no longer, in any manner or degree, just,
ly held responsible or blamed for the ad
ministration of the Executive branch of
the Government; and that the President
and his advisers should be exclusively
hereafter deemed accountable. Rut, as
by the joint acts of Prov idence and the
People he is constitutionally invested with
the powers of Chief Magistrate, whilst he
remains in otfice he should be treated with
perfect respect by ail. And it will be the
duty of the Whigs in and out of Congress,
to give to his official acts and measures
fair and full consideration, approving
them and co-operating in their support i
where they can, and differing from and
opposing any of them only from a high
*euae of public duty.
The more important question remains ,
to be touched. What ought to be the fu?
lure line of conduct of the Whig party in 1
[he extraordinary emergency which now j
exists ? ,
Thcv came into Dower to accomplish
J - f ,
ijreat ami patriotic objects. By the zeal
uid perseverance of the majorities in Congress,
some of the most important of those
objects have been carried at the extia session.
Others yet remain to the effected.
The conduct of the President hasoccastoned
bitter mortification and drep regret.
Shall the party, therefore, yielding to sen- 1
timents of despair, abandon its fluty, and
mbmit to defeat and disgrace T Far from
differing such dishonorable consequen- j
r.es, the very disappointment which it has i
unfortunately experienced should serve
rinly to redouble its exertions, and to in- 1
spire it with fresh courage to persevere
with a spirit unsubdued and a resolution ,
unshaken, until the prosjieritv of the coun- i
try is fully re-established, and its liberties '
firmly secured against a I! danger from the
abuse, encroach meats, or usurpations of
the Executive department of the Government.
At the head of the duties which remain
for the Whigs to perform towards their
country stands conspicuously and pre-emi?.i?i
n
nenny ?wvc mi umci??
First. A reduction of the Executive
power, by a further limitation of the Veto.
so as to secure obedience to the public
will, as that shall be expressed by the irn
mediate Representatives of the People
and the States, with no other control
than that which is indispensable to avert
hasty or unconstitutional legislation.
B v the adoption of a single term for the
incumbent of the Presidential office.
By a separation of the Purse from the
Sword, and with that view to place the
appointment of the Head of the Treasury
in Congress; and
By subjecting the power of dismissn'
from office to ju*t restrictions, so as to
render the President amenable for its exercise.
Second. The establishment by Congress
of a fiscal agent, competent to collect,
safely keep, arid disburse the public
moneys, to restore the currency, and to
equalize the exchanges of the country ;
i
ana
Third. The introduction of economy
in the administration of ihe Government,
and the discontinuance of aii sinecures
and useless offices.
To the effectuation of these ohjects
ought the exertions of the Whigs hereafter
to be'directed. Those only should be
chosen memiiers of Congress who are
willing cordially to co-operate in the ac.
cornplishment of them. Instead of
striking our flag, let it be reared still higher,
with a firmer hand, bearing upo i its
folds in conspicuous letters, 44 The Will i
of the Nation uncontrolled by the will of
%
-. ? ?/ : ' t xafi&ui
ONE MAN: one Presidential term, a
frugal Government, anil no sub-Treasury.
??oen or covert, in substance or in fact:
no Government Bank, but an institution
capable of guarding the People's treasure
and administering to the People's wants."
Rally nig under that banner, let us appeal
to that People whose patriotic exertions
led to victory in the late glorious
struggle. Let lis invoke the action of
the Legislative Councils of the sovereign
States of this Union. Instructed by
their immediate constituents, let them as- 1
certain and express the public will in relation
to these great questions; and espeeially
let them, within their respective
constitutional spheres, exert themselves to
give it effect.
Animated by these principles, and
guided by Providence, defeat is impossible,
and triumphant success inevitable.?
We may confidently hope that vast numbers
of our fellow.citizens, who have been
hitherto separated from us. will unite with
us under such a glorious standard; and
that majorities in both Houses of Congress
sufficiently large may be secu *ed to carry j
nnv measure demanded by the welfare of
the nation, in spite of the interposition
of the power with which any one mao
may have been accidentally invested.?
Disappointed in that, if such should be
our loi, there will remain the hope of an
amendment of the constitution, curtailing
the Executive power. And if that should
fail, ht have only to recur to the noble
example of o ?r ancestors, to recollect the
duty we owe ourselves and posterity, and
k ar with man!) fortitude three years
longer the rings inflicted during the
las* twelv- \ v In the mal-adminibtratiou
of the ?.\>-o'lttve department of the]
Government. We shall have the consolation
of reflecting that, in the mean time,
if the ihjs^deiit ?*?n prevent the attainment
of 4II he good which Congress is deirous
to accomplish, Congress may check
or prevent some of the mischiefs, which
under a different state of majorities in the
body, he might have the power to impose.

persons of both sexes, conducted with a solo
view to their improvement in Literature, science,
and the conduct of lite, written, not in the colloquial

who aro acquiring the art of forming their
Literary taste; and filled with such various,
original, aiiu valuable matter as shall render the
volumes when bounu up, worthy a place in the
Family or School Lii rary.
It is the purpose of The Young People's Book
to furnish such a Magazine. He has provided
ample means for the accomplishment of his
objoct; and he pledges himself to the friends of
liberal and judicious education throughout the
United States that he will produce a work
which shall be in every respect wor'.hy of their
attention and patronage.
There is a poriod in the progress from early
childhood to maturity, and that by no means a
short one, during which the expanding minds of
young aru seeking in every direction for useful
knowledge, as well as intellectual entertain*
ment.
Every book, paper or pamphlet which prom,
iscs cither, is eargerly read, and every circle or
society of a literary or scientific cast is earnestly
sought. During this period the young perM?n
is not satisfied with that kind of instruction
which is given to mere children. Something
more "levnted?something nearer the studi :s and
pursuits of active life is requiicd. A frierd

research?a friend who could relieve the dryness
; of abstract truth hy a familiar anecdote, narrative
or illustration?who could scatter a few rows ol
literature in the rugged paths of severe science,
would indeed lie invaluable.
Such a friend not one Youth in a thousand, ol
I either sex, can have. Tlicre is no lotcrabh
substitute to be iouiid in any bo?>k w? irigh
say in uny library. It is proposed in snmemeas.
uru to supply the want of such a friend in Tb<
