Ex-President Tyler (member of Congress) has been detained at his estate in Charles City County, by illness.
We are glad to hear, however, that he is convalescent, and although in bed when the news was read to him of the glorious victory achieved by our troops on the field of Manassas, he called for champagne, and made his family and friends drink the health of our generals.--Richmond Enquirer.
