' President Tyler' Address,
TO THE PEOPLE OF THE U. STATES.
Fellow-Citizens : Before my arrival
at the seat of government, the painful
communication was made to you by the
officers presiding over the several depart
ments, of the deeply regretted death of
William Henry Harrison, ate president
of the United States. - Upon him you
had conferred your suffrages for the firsi
office in your gift, and had selected him
'as your chosen instrument to correct and
reform all such eirors and abuses as had
manifested themselves from time to time
in the practical operation of the govern
ment. While standing at the threshold
of this great work, he has, by the dispen
sation of an all-wise Providence, been
removed from amongst tis, and by tin-
provisions of the constitution, the efforts
to be directed to the accomplishing of this
vitally important task, have devolved upoi
myself." This same occurrence has sub
jected the wisdom and sufficiency of our
institutions to a new test.
For the first lime in our history, the
person elected to the vice presidency of
the U. S., by the happening of a eontin
.gency provided for in the constitution,
lias had devolved upon him the president
office. The spirit of faction, which i?
directly opposed to the spirit of a lofty
patriotism, may find in this occasion foigcney which may arise. All sinecures;
assaults upon my administration. And
in succeeding, under circumstances lot
sudden and unexpected, and to responsi
bilities so greatly augmented, lo the ad
ministration of public affairs, I shall plact
in the intelligence and patriotism of
.people, mv only sure reliance. Mv earn-iof
est prayer shall be constantly addresse!aa"(1 peculation or defalcation visited will

this confederacy, uudcrstatidingly to carry
out the principles of that constitution!
which I have sworn "to protect, preserve,;
ami dflend."

principles which will govern , me in tht
general course of my administration ofgdustiy its just and adequate rewards, and
public, aflairs, would seem to bo duo as
well to myself as to you. In regard to
foreign nations, the ground-work of my
policy will be justice on our part lo a!l,t

such officer has been guiltv of active par

patronage of the government in conflict
with the freedom of elections.
Numerous removals may become ne

I have dwelt the longer upon this subject,
because removals from office are likely of
ten to arise, and I would have my coun
trymen to understand the principle of the
executive action.
In all public expenditures the most ri
