It is with profound nnd poignxnt regret
that we find ourselves railed up??ii to invoice
your attention to this point. Upon
the great and leading measure touching
this question our anxious endeavors to reppond
to the earnest prayer of the nation
have been frustrated by an act ns unlooked-for
as it is to he lamented. We grieve
to say to you that, by the exercise of thnt
power in the Constitution which has ever
-? * J
been regarded with suspicion, ana oiten
with odium, by the People?a power
which we had hoped was never to be ex*
hihited, on this subjeet. by a Whig Pwu*
dent?we have been defeated in two at*
tempts to create a Fiscal Agent, which
the wants of the country had demonstrated
to us, in the most absolute form of
proof, to be eminently necessary and
proper in the present emergency. Twice
have we, with the utmost diligence and
deliberation, matured a plan for the col*
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
thfe application of the veto power. The
character of that veto in such case, the
circumstances in which it was administered,
an t the grounds upon which it has
met the decided disapprobation of your I
friends in Congress, are sufficiently apparent
in the public documents and the !
debates relating to it. This subject has
acquired a painful interest with us, and
will doubtless acquire it with you. from j
the unhappy developments with which it )
accompanied. We are constrained to !
say ir.at we find no ground to justify us in |
the conviction that the veto o*' the Presi- |
dent has been interposed on tfus question !
solely upon conscientious and well-con*
sidered opinions of constitutional scruple
as to his duty in the case presented. On
the contrary, too mnnv proofs have been
forceiijupon our observation to leave as ire |
from the apprehension that the President j
has permitted himself to be beguiled into
an opinion that, by this exhibition of his
prerogative, he might be able to divert the
policy of his Administration into a chan- j
nel which should lead to new political l
combinations, and accomplish results
which must overthrow the present divis. j
ions of party in the country, and finally ;
produce a state of things which those who
elected him. at least, have never contemplated.
We have seen, from an early period
of the session, that the Whig party
did not enjoy the confidence of the Presi- ,
dent. With mortification we have ob- |
served thai his associations more sedulously
aimed at a free communion with those
who ha*e been busy to prostrate our pur- 1
poses rather than those who6t3 principles ,
seemed tojw most identified withthe powerj
by w hich he was elected. Wo have seen |
season to believe that he has permitted !
himself to he approached, cou nselled, and
influenced hy those who have manifested i
least interest in the success of Whig mea- j
sures. What were represented to be his j
opinions and designs have been freely, i
hnd even insolently put forth in certain j
|H>rti<?ns, and those not the most reputable,
of the public press, in a manner that ought
to be deemed offensive to his honor, as it
certainly was to the feelings of those who
was believed to be his friends. In the earn,
est endeavpr manifested by the members
of the Whig party in Congress to ascertain
specifically the Presiden ts notions in
reference to the details of such a bill relating
to a Fiscal Agent as would be likely
to meet his approbation, the frequent
changes of his opinion and the singular
want of consistency in his views have
ha tiled his best friends, and rendered the
hope of adjustment with him impossible.
Congress, early in the session, called j
upon the Secretary of the Treasury forj
the plan ofa Fiscal Agent: the result of
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 r< gard it, re- j
ceived bv all as the hill of the President. ;
9
In fact, it was known tr? contain provis. '
ions, in reference to the assent of the i
States, which corresponded with the pri- '
vale opinion of no member of the Cabi- ;
net. This bill the President had even in- I
f??rmed more than one member of the j
House he would be willing tosign if pas- i
sed by Congress : yet it contained pro- j
\tsiori for local discounting, in regard to j
which his Win Mnssatrp ifSrm? his nh. :
jectmn to be altogether insuperable. The '
President has subsequently declared that I
this was not his measure, and that when '
he sau! he would sign this bill he bad not !
rend 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 I
opinion, suggested as it is in his first Veto,
and afier using every proper effort to ascertain
his precise views upon it, that the
Committee of the House of Representa-1
tives reported their second hill. It made ,
provision for a bank without the privilege
of local discounting, and w as adapted, as
closely as possible, to that class of rnnrcantile
operations which the first Veto !
Message describes with approbation, and |
witch that paper specifically illustrates
iby reference to the dealings in the ox,ckflnges"of
the Hunk of the United o;ates
in 1833, which the Presidentaffirms "a.
?mounted to upwards of one hundred mil.
.lions of dollars." \et this plan, when it
, was submitted to him, was objected to on
.a new ground. The last Veto has nnr,rowefi
r&e question of a bank down to the
basis.of the sub.Trensury scheme, and it
is obvious from the opinion of that nies.
.sage that the country is not to expect any
thing better than the exploded sub-Treasury
or so?o. measure of the same character,
from Mr. Tyler.
Jn the midst of nil these varieties of op.
.inion, an ,impenetrable mystery seemed
Jo hang.over the whole question. There

course ofa President and his friends, and
the last persons in the Government who
would seem to have been entrusted with

icswcre the constitutions! advisers which
the laws had provided for him.
In this review of the position into which
the late events have thrown the Whig
party, it is wiih profound sorrow ?ve 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
the consummation of a glorious victory:
he has even perhnps thrown us once more
upon the field of political strife, not weak*
cned in numbers, nor shorn of the support
of the country, hut stripped of the arms
which success had placed in our hands,
and left again to rely upon that high pat.
riot ism which for twelve years sustained

and which finally brought us to the fulfilment
ofthose brilliant hopes which he has
done so much to destroy.
In this state of things, the Whigs will
naturally look wiih anxiety to the future,
and inquire what are the actual relations
between the President and those who
brought him into power; and what,in the
opinion of their friends in Congress,
should be their course hereafter. On
both of these questions we feel it to be our
duty to address you in perfect frankness
and without reserve, but, at the same time,
with duo respect to others.
In regard to the first, we are constrained
to,say, that the President, bv the
course he has adopted in respect to the
application of the veto power to two successive
bank charters, each of which
there was just reason to believe would
mcot his approbation; by his withdrawal
of confidence from his real friends in Congr?'s<
and from the members of his Cabi
net; bv his bestowal of it upon others notwiih.stnnding
their notorious opposition
to fading measures of his Administration,
has voluntarily separated himself from
those by whose exertion arid suffrages he
j.- it?. ..~i.
WHS C'irviiltll IO (Mill ?#IHUC tllMfUgil nillMI
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 and duties which grow
out of it ?
The first consequence it, that those who
brought the President into pow.r can he
no longer, in any manner or degree, justly
held responsible or blamed for the an
ministration of the Executive branch ?.f
the (iovernment; and that the President
and his advisers should be exclusively
hereafter deemed accountable. But. as
by the joint acts of Providence and the
People he is constitutionally invested with
the powers of Chief Magistrate, whilst he
remains in otfice he should he treated with
perfect respect by all. 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
where they can, and differing from and
opposing any of them only from a high
sense of public duty.
The more im[>ortant question remains
to be touched. What ought to be the future
line of conduct of the Whig party in
the extraordinary emergency which now
exists ?
They came into power to accomplish
trrcint ai.it itufnrtho nhippto Ru thp TPnl
6.~?......
and 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 has occasioned
bitter mortification and deep regret.
Shall the party, therefore, yielding to sentiments
of despair, abandon its fluty, and
submit to defeat and disgrace ? Far from
suffering such dishonorable consequences,
the very disappointment which it has
unfortunately experienced should serve
only to redouble its exertions, and to inspire
it with fresh courage to persevere
with a spirit unsubdued and a resolution
unshaken, until the prosperity of the country
is fully re-established, and its liberties
firmlv secured against al! danger from the
ahu.se, encroachments, or usurpations of
the E / .oeutivo department of the Government.
At the head of the duties which remain
fV?r th? Whiffs to nerform towards their
"""" " n i
country stands conspicuously and pre-eminently
above all others?
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 bv the tm
mediate Representatives of the People
and the States, with no other control
than that which is indispensable to avert
hasty or unconstitutional legislation.
Bv 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; :;nd
By subjecting the power of dismissa'
from office to ju*t restrictions, so as to
render tlie President amenable for its exercise.
Second. Pile establishment by Congress
of u fiscal agent, competent to col
lect, safelv keep, aud disburse the public
monevs, to restore the currency % and to
equalize the exchanges <>f the country ;
and
Third. The introduction of economy
in the administration 01 the Government
and the discontinuance of all sinecures
and useless offices.
To the effectuation of these objects
ought the exertions of the Whigs hereafter
to be directed. Those only should be
chosen members of Congress who are
willing cordially to co-operate in the at%
coinplishment of them. Instead of
striking our flag, let it be reared still higher,
with a firmer hand, hearing upo? its
folds in conspicuous letters, " The Will
of the Nation uncontrolled by the will of
ONE MAN: one Presidential term, a |
frugal Government, and no sub-Treasury,
open 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."
Rallynig under that banner, let us appeal
to that People whose patriotic exertions
led to victory in the late glorious
struggle. Let us invoke the action of
the Legislative Councils of the sovereign
States of this Union. Instructed by
j their immediate constituents, let them asI
certain and express the public will in rein!
tion to these great questions; and especially
let them, within their respective
constitutional spheres, exert themselves to
give it effect.
Animated by these principles, and
guided by Providence, defeat is impostii
hi*, 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
any measure demanded by the welfare of
the nation, in spite of the interposition
of the power with which any one man
may have been accidentally invested.?
Disappointed in that, if such should be
our lot, there will remain the hope of an
amendment of the constitution, curtailing
the Executive power. And if that shouid
fail. we have only to recur to the noble
example of oir ancestors, to recollect the
dut y we owe ourselves and posterity,' and j
to hear with inanh fortitude three years j
longer the so if rings inflicted during the j
las? twelve yerny In toe maladministration
of the E.veotivc department of the j
Government. We shall have the consolation
of reflecting that, in the mean time,
if the 'hjs deiit "an prevent the attainment
of dfl he good which Congress is deirous
to accomplish, Congress may ch s*.k
or prevent some of the mischiefs, which
tinder a different state of majorities in the
body, he might have tta power to impose.

HIOSIECTUS OF
THE YOUNG PEOPLE'S BOOK !
Or Mugizine of
USEFUL AMD ENTERTAINING
KNOWLEDGE.
There are many periodical publications, yel
one more is wanted. The lntntis of general
Education?the advocates of the diffusion ol
Useful knowledge?have long desired to a *e the
commencement of a monthly magazine demoted
to the instruction snd cntertiinmcnt o: Young
persons of both sexes, conducted with e sole
view to their improvement in Literature, science,
and the conduct of life, written, not in the col'
loquial language which is adores-ed to vory
. }oung children, but with such attention to the
- s ylo as shall rrndfr it worthy the notice of t!i?*e
, who an acquiring I lie art ot forming their
, Literary taste; and filled with such various,
, o iirina!, aim valuable matter a? shall ren-er the
i | volumes when bounu up, worthy a place in the
|1 family or School Lilrary.
It is the purpose of Tlie Young People's Book
, to furnish such a Magazine. He has provided
, ample means fur the accomplishment of hi>
obj ect; mid he pledges himself to the friends o!
, -liberal and judicious education throughout the
, United States that he will produce a work
, which shall be in every respect wor'hy of then
attention and patronage.
There is s period in the progress from earl)
childhood to maturity, and that by no means i
short one, during which the expanding minds o!
young aro seeking in every direction fur useful
knowledge, as well as intellectual entertain,
ment.
, Every book, paper or pamphlet which prom
iscseither, is eargerly read, and every circlu 01
I society of a literary or scientific cast is earnestly
sought. During this period the young pe^or
is not satisfied with that kind of instruction
which is given to mere children. Something
more <devated?something nearer the studus and
pursuits of active lite is rcquiied. A frier c
( always at hand who could point out the propel
studies to be pursued, the tr ie methods ufdevcl.
opement in Literatuie and Science, the best
course of Keading, tiie surest processes oi Investigation.
the most recent authorities in Expcri.
mouUi, and the ino*t learned in Historical
research?a friend who could relieve the dryuest
3 of ibstracl truth hy a f.miiliur anecdote, nurmtiv?
or illustration?who could scatter a few row* o!
* literature in the nigged paths of severe science.
- would indeed lie invaluable.
Such a friend not one Youth in a thousnnd, ul
either sex, can have. There is no tolerablf
substitute to be iound in any book ?< n igl>
say in any library. It is proposed in some mens.
1 ure to supply the want of such a friend in The
. Young People's Book.
5 One of the leading objects of the work will be
I to point out and illustrate bv practical examples
the proper methods of self' instruction in the
I various departments of Literatu e and Art, to
suggest ippropria'e departments of study ami
