The Washington correspondent of the N. Y. Evangelist, writes: "In regard to the Tarifij there s little reason to believe that one with a very high rate ofduties will succeed. The President bworb, to a gentleman of my auquaintance, that he would veto any Tariff bill thnt, like Mr. Salstonstalls, proposed to allow the dietribution of the public lands to continue! I am sorry to say that the President w a profane swearer, and often interlards his conversation with on oath. Such an exnmple in the chief magistrate of a nation merits a cevere rebuke." Cannot we have a President who will be gentleman enougli not to use profane language in ordinary conversaton? W 11 the m any ten thousatids of Christians who voted for Mr. Tyler think of thisL Or will they be once more humbu-ged into the support of another Slaveholding Swearing President.
