So that from lhe establishment pol‘ such 3. bank the federalism derive a two fold odvantago, they make on inroad upon the constitution, which they regard as a triumph of their principles, and they gain the o.cces- sioo to their ranks of o powcrlixl, irresponsible, and reckless auxiliary, an auxiliary wliicli it is tlieir policy to strengthen to the utmost, that it may afford then: the more eflieient aid in their struggles for power. To offset this they insist {bat the GO‘:‘8¥’I1{Il€B£Sl}0l1lCl yield up to its the custody, and control of the national l:rcosore,and that that treasure should be increased, by exorbitant taxation, in the imposition of which no coostitutionsltscruples, on their part, over impose restraint. The raising of a row» once, even for a purpose to them so desirable, by direct taxation upon property, never found favor with the fed- eral party; by that mode of taxation the hordes would be distributed among the people according to their means of payment. It never accorded with federal prin- ciples to suffer the poor man to csoapefso lightly. He musl be made to contribute largely, and out of all pro- portion to his means, not merely to defray the necessary expenses of the government, but to swell the Fund which is to be employed as an instrument for enslsvicg him; that food must be levied, not upon property,-—-—tbst woold draw too largely upon the purse of the bloated oristo- oral, but upon the consusmptiozz. of imported goods, by a heavy tariff of duties. To render such a tariff necessa- ry'£l1e national treasury must be exhausted, and a cellos- al debt created, by the extensive prosecution of works of internal improvement; and here, again, in the selee- tioo, of objecis for such expenditures, federal principles intcrpose no constitutional soroples. Vforks ohneroly lo» col interest are regarded as altogether preferable, in as much as the national legislature may the more easlly be drawn to the support of them byithe operation of’ the log rolling system--——a system, by whicli members of Con» gress from one section of the Union, can secure the aid of members from other sections, in elibctiog 3 fizroriie object, by promising to reciprocals the lheor- By moose fiike {his we have seen attempts s;;-’ste::oaticall§»', sod per- severingly, made, by the federal party, to corrupt {he national legislature, and fritter away tho eooslitutioo, and when the President of the United States, oxwriliiog to ri- olate his oath of ofiice, and barter away his conscience, ondliiislsosl, has richly withlield his sanction, and ioler- posedhis solo. the eiels of federal Wratlx liaise been on- corlzed, and ruthlessly emptied upon his dccoted head. The distribolioo among the States of the avsilslof the public land_s,aud the assumption by Congress of the State debts, are other unconstitutional modes, devised by the lbderalists, of’ exhatlsting the treasury, keeping up a high tazrili} and perpetuating unequal and oppressive taxation. Those among us who are acquainted with the political history of this country need no exposition of‘ l'ederal principles, lioweverreilecl, from motives of policy, or for purposes of deception, may be ihe principles of lbs dumb idol vzliich tlisl, party now wo1'sl1ip, and however oirabiguous therespooscs of’ his orziclcs. The principles of the federal party l1{i\'8 ever been the same, and will be put in praciico whenever the party opposed to us shall be in power; for though the llelm of government might be thrust into the bustle of a dumb, and masked statue, it would still be moved by federaliiimpulse, and guided by f'ederal dictation. The le:1ders.ol' the fetierol party have always regarded and treated, with contempt the great mass of the people——- “the swioish multitode,” “the common herd,” “the mob,” “the rabble,” “the lmgo pews,” “Ibo llE1W- gees,” as they have at Various times denominated us.-——-— They lmow that the great body of the people have inter- ests distinct from their own, a gust regard for which, if universal and independent sullioge be tolerated, will al- ways keep them, and their party, in a minority; hence the disposition always manifested by them to Iimitihe rlgllt of sufliage, so as to deprive the poor man of‘ the privilege of voting; hence, too, their frequent and habit- ual attzzoks upon the freedom of elections, the coercion exercised by them over the poor man, who happens to be dependent. upon them for the patronage or employment 3 by wliicli be earns his dolly breed; cod lire s_‘§’;'-;tem of’ es’- piooago kept: op through the iostruiiieiitolizy of colored ballots, for the purpose of detecting any such poor moo‘ who shall dare to vote in opposition to their wishes-—-‘-—b§ siijelz means they destroy the privilege intended to be see cured to the poor man of concealing his vote E1}? the iifié , of the ballot, and often compel him either Eo vole sgainst his principles, or see his Wife cod children reduced to want. t The same. motive has iuduced that §}sf1l'l:y’l£} practice the most glaring floods in the monsgezneni of elections, and even lo resist by force the will of the majority’, and treat elections “as lhough they had never happened.” The more mention of the liigliliamled and treusonsble usurpation of the federal Governor of’ Pemisylvsnio, and his unprincipled minions in 1838———-9, in otiemptiug to set aside the election in that State, and wrest the govern- ment from the bonds of the people at the point of the bayonet, is enough to mslie the blood ourdle in the reins oferery true patriot. The fact lhst iliat dork transse- tion, so fell of treason and iuliung, received the opprobs- tion of the entire federal party, with :1 very few honors-‘ his exceptions, eriizces most clearly, tboi the spirit of the Hartlbrd Convention still haunts our country, ‘ondpois- one its political atmosphere. The iolimious liiew Jersey Pennington l‘raud, in which the oliicial authority of the chief executive, and the great seal of the State, were basely prostituted to effect a. vile party purpose, ofibrils another striking illustration, as well of the political mor- ality, as of {be dangerous designs of ilse federal party. The uiisiiccesslbl attempt to foist the trailer Burr into the presidency against the known voice of’ the people, and the successful one to elerato John Quiiicy Adonis to the some station by bargain and intrigue, afford fixrtlier illustration of the some points, and altogether forcibly admonish us that “eternal vigilance is the price‘ of’ liber- ty.” It is a democratic principle, and one of‘ vital im- portance, that the majority’ should role, and that men, or that body of men, who disi'egordtl1ot principle and attempt to defezil the will of the niajority, coo be regard» ed in no other light than that of eocoiies to libcsty, sod enemies of size people; l 2321 oowilliogness to have their principles and policy freely discussed has induced the federalists to attack the liberty of speech, and of the press, as in the instances of tho gag lap: of the elder Adams, and the still more odi~ zoos and abominable gag hrongiit forward, and urged 11;}- oo Coogress, at iis lost sod preseoi ssssioos, bf; promi-4 nest members of {be federal psrlg, by silica oi’ wliiclz no man who has lbs honor of holding on oiiice of 3:}; description, onderthe general‘government, was to be peroiiiztod to express, otherwise than, by his silent vote, an opinion of public men or measures. That these me:is- ures were in direct and palpable violation of the Constitc-= tion of their countrgg, which declares “that C0flf;l'8S3 shall oxalic no law obridgiug the freedom of speech or of tho press” was in those, as in other cases, no objection to them on the port of their cnpriuciplsd movers; and why should it be, since the fate of that country sod iis Coo-= stitotioo, liaise been so liglitly regarded by that perv; on so many occasions? The adoption of she I}}€£iSL2l'(3'lii3i, mentioned, would liars ostiiblislied :1 precedent, which, if lbllowed out in the spirit of it, would have rendered the Coiistitutiori, in evcrypnrt of it, absolutely and 11;- terly a dead letter, and, by removing all restraint upon the powers of Congress, would have rendered that body as omuipoteot as the British Parliament.

Mr Adams was of all men best suitedpto answer the purposes of the federal party as a. candidate for the station to which they elevated shire;-——he had not partici- patetl in their treasooahle opposition to the war;-t-~l1e had himself set them the example of duplicity by the imita- tion of which they foisted him into cflice and themselves into power;-———from a rank am} bitter federalist he, too, had experienced as instantaneous conversion to dernocra-= ey--the some species ofpdcmocrecy Vt:lll1 which they were at-{fl~ic1ed-tltat skin deep,‘ cutaneous democracy, which cgoy he teamed itch for power. The disease in his case as "well as t‘oeirs, was so easily cured that it never ltort him for only federal purpose;-——tl1ei Fecleralists knew their men, and he was willing to he lmown by them; and he sees soon ltnown by the democracy. This tritunph of federalism was of short dmstioo, emi was rendered in :1 measure harmless by the strength. which the aroused spirit of democracy speedily threw in- l~.9 the notional legislators. The people rose in their might, and hurled from its elevation, at theslirst constitu- tional Zzoof, co aglolieistration Wltich had thus crept into power through the avenues of Fraud and treaclietjr. De- mocracy‘ in its turn triumphed, anti Andrew Jackson, the frank and fearless soldier, the firm unwavering dem- ocrat, the incorroptihlo pottiot, the friend cod powerful ;2rotectot' of equal rights, the seccessful and glorious de- leoder of‘ his t’?i)ti£}i§'_¥ sgoinst both foreign enemies and domestic troitors, was called by the voice of a grateful, and oozatitliog people to preside over their political clesti- sies. To present his election his enemies had resorted to every species of tticlgfixlsehoocl and celumny; and the some spirit which the fecierslists bed so iofamoesly exercised in their osoositioo to the esioiioistrations of Jefferson and iiledison, was again resived. They hated General Jackson for his glorious participation 3:1 the late , war with Great Britain, the}; hated. him because he was :1 deznocrot, and they hated him. for every quality which encleared him to the democracy; they hatecl him in ad» vsoco, cod cocci of his, save one, mitigoteol their hatrecl for one moment during the tsliole course of his e.d:ninis,- trc-tion; that one act alone was adverse to the principles of liberty,'ct1(l would unquestionably have. been condemn-5 ed by his own more deliberate jorlgroeot;-—-but it was approved and applauded by the whole federal party, i neecl not sag; that the objectionable act to which I allude, was his proclamation of Dec. 11th, 1832, on the occosv ioo of the faotoos South Carolina ordinance purporting to nullify certain acts of Congress- In awarding to the President their mood of praise on this occasion, the north- ern fetleralists might have been iofioencecl, in some Incas ore, by their hatred of the democratic South. , « Vliitli this single exception the whole course of’ Presi- éeot Jacl$i.(}(:l{S, and corimmdilies.

A The fetleralists can trust such a combination, but they never could trust the people. The democracy go For the Independent Treasury system. They have ever been opposed to a Union of Church and State, and they are new opposed to a union of Bank and State; but in this, as in es-tier); thing else, they meet with opposition from the federal party. The ground of that opposition is thirst for power,and privilege and is partially explained by Henrysi. ‘Wise, :1 ‘federal member of Congress, in in speech uttered by him in the House of Representatives December‘ 21, 3338. I quote ‘li'orn an edition published by the federall.-_=ts for circulation in this State immediately preceding the election in 1839. Mr W’ise says: “This is now the issue, shall the people or the President pre- vail? The contest is no longer about measures. The Snbtreasury may be proved to be the best system which the wisdom of man ooulrl devise; bot,. Sir, the President and his minions, have dared to force itupon us,.have ar- nogantly proclaimed -that it shall be the lav.w,11otw1thstand- ing the Larnentations-lier«e or elsewhere. The ineasure hasibeen thréice rejected. It is again presented, and, if passed, will prove that the President is too strong l'or.the people. 111 this issue I can no longer debate its policy, or its expediency, another consideration is paramount. I oppose it now because it is an executive measure. Prose it to be the best, I -would~.l1aoe rny arm lopped oil", my tongue pulledoot, -before I -would be forced to vote foriit by the will of one man.” In another part of the same speech Mr ‘W_ise-.says: “I-l‘ the l'avo.riterneasu1'e be passed no tongue can tell the horrible results to this no- tion, -it W-ill surely-re-elect,liizn”(Mr Van Buren) “to a second term, and ~w.11or-will -succeed him? that is the last great question. Let me tell certain —g+-'.3l3l.lBfl1€I1 of the ‘South particularly, rno mat-teramha-t may be their hopes, and their calculations for their man, there risone whom I cannot call a man, who is as sure of the succession as he surely deserves nothing but ignominy and disgrace, that monster is Thomas H. Bc72.ton.” r 2 a So here we have it. The Sn-btreasury is opposed be- ca-useit is an executire»measu1'e, and because if passed ‘itwill surely re-elect Mr Van Buren for ,a second term. And Mr‘ Viiise fl’!-igl]l.i‘l:‘i{il\z'(3 added, as the sentiment of his party, the further reason, that it we-'«uld be -death to their hopes of ever re-chartering the batik, -death to the 'pros_pccts of that -.party in the destruction of -its powerliil ally. He might still ~‘i'urtl1er~have added that, through its wliolesonie and benign operation, it would secure the triumph of‘ democratic principles in all future time, which, with the fedcralists, would have been the weigh- ticst objection of all. The open profiigacy of the decla- ration, that, aithough the measure in question might be the best which the wisdom of man could devise, yet it should he opposed because it was an executive measure, has I trust no parallel in any country but this, and in this no where but in the declarations, «purposes, and doings, of the federal partj,~'. The speech ztihat contained that declaration was endorsed, and appizo-veil by the federal- ists, and circulated by them, by tens of thousands, for eiectioueering purposes. ‘Wins everccontctnpt for the H1- rtelligence of the people so gross, and palpable? I need not comment upon the spiteful and ridiculous insinuation of’ \Vise, that the President was attempting to force upon Congress the adoption of the Independent Treasury systeni. His recornmenclation, in pursuance of ‘his coast‘-itm':'ional duty, -was -the only force be ever exer- cised in procuring or atteriiptirig to ‘procure the adoption ‘by Congress of any nieasu-re. Tilie declaration that the Presidentiiad proclaimed that the Sub—Treasury system should be the law, deserves only to be treated with con- texnpt',——‘it never had the least foundation in Fact; it was a sheer caluinny, as black and base, if‘ possible, as the heart of him who uttered it. lilr Wise and his party dreaded the adoption of the proposed measure, because, as he said, it would re-elect Mr Van Burcn for a second term-——and it 11:02:11.6 probably contribute to that result, but in no other Way than by -its salutary influence upon the public interests and its consequent fintoraible reception by the people. That measure has been u-denounced as likely to prove ruinous to the Country if adopted. Sim- ilar dcnunciations have been poured Forth from the some source, against every measure originating with the democratic party, since the lbundation of the Govern- ment. The election of Mr .‘fefl'erson, it was predicted, would prove ruinous to religion and morality, and in- deed to every thing —va—lua-ble and sacred. The purchase of Louisiana -was a ruinous Irreasure, especially to the frogs and reptiles, for .which only it was said to be .1 suit- able habitation. The embargo, the nonintercourse, the war, were all ruinous, and -wicked measures, and the whole federal party labored, with might and main, to make them so; but the}-' had then no bank with a capital of thirty-five ~mill.ions to aid them, thank God. The alien audisedition laws, the 1'-a'is’ing of the C3S*ftH'(l army, the "doings of the Hart-iiotd Convention, -the charter of the United States ‘Ba-nlt, and the building of light houses in the skies, -were in the highest degree .sal.utary, and second only to 3. severance of the Union, and the erec- piondof the five striped flag open the shores of New-Eng; an . .L"‘E"}" -‘1‘~“"’iVi";~'Z‘ tneniber of the Har.tl'cr.d C'.onren_ti.on t-;::c:“:*:;~2.2.c§ sf §f*3‘;'£}lZ!l_l€3llil1'_';‘ pr.=2:«-2,«»..
