dams for President, auI Jackson for Yicc-prcsi-
dent.
The high character Of judge Hol,ncs rs a
man, and Il uniform ana consistent republican
is SO well known AM universally rcspoctcl
that in announcing him as the friend of Adams
AMI jackson, the committee believe they oTcr
strong argument IL support Of those dis:in-
guished men.
In further support orJu'll Quincy Adams, the
committee cali the attention OF the people to hi,
acknowledged AMI splendid taicnts-his long
faithful and important service: they are of re-
cord in the state papers of our country, AMI
must be known to all who have taken any inter-
est in public affairs. That Inc is honest faithful
and di!igent, is abun1antiy proved by the CON
fdcncc Of Washington, Jefferson, Madison ana
Monroe, during all whose administrations he
was employed in the highest, most honorable
AMI i'm, ,Jrtant affairs If more evidence of his
spieu,Gi abilities is reIHircl tie co.anttec

,lncquallcl defence against tIs attacks OF Rus
sell and Snyth-i,apcrs Which commanded the
admiration an applause OF the whole COUNTRY.
Oith gallant hero Of Now Orleans, nothing
delight to honor AMI reward his distinguished
military services.
From the Dn'nclcc mont Of tlc f. lctal o.
vernmcat, Virginia has hui the honor to fl, TIC
presidential ciiair with her native born sons
-four year: excepted, and then Vircinian wa,
vicc-prcsidcnt.) Distinguished men they were,
and well worthy of the high and hlncr;sblc of
flee. But other states believe That they have
distinguished men, X much jealousy &;li,coatc nt
has been manifested towards Virginia. SHE
las been charged with ambition, anl doilii-
ncering spirit: aRl if, alter having iiial the
presidential chair = of SO years, size sail again
aspire to that honor, ana support aRo::cr ]; u
gintr will not tue other states nave some Cause

The committee arc persuaded that Justice

towards other states, CHI n2oa Virginia 20 vio, ;
all professions oa 4ic PC ( occasion. The
supporters of Mr.. Crawford, however, will dis
claim the iioa that lie Is supported as a i!sin-
i'm but that he is a citizen of Georgia, though
BORN and educated in Virginia.
h The committee Will readily admit that Mr..
cawiord is highly mcritorious man, but they
e yet to learn i'll what he is superior 10 JOHN
!Ricy Adans--and, in some respects, they
cannot admit that he i, hs equal. ,jut suppose

The friends of Nr. Crawford have united his
f.te with Albert Callatn nit is general ticket,
and the CAUCUS AMI their co nmittces and cicc-
tors are pielseI to support it. Have we 10 a
n1cricaa worthy to be vice president OF the Uni
ted States? Is Albert GaIatin, Il foreigner,
t, be preferred 10 tiIc hoi of New Orleans and
other distinguished n.n of our country 80

pledged to say.
Let it be remembered tina; in the event Of 10

anI if Virginia ,cW vote the caucus ticket, it is
perfectly certain there will be no election by the
people, AMI it Is very probable there will be
none by congress. VIII Virginia support Al
bert Galiatin as yice-prcsi lent, with this pros
pect of bis being presdcn! in fact We trust
not, but that she will be governed By a nag
Unanimous anl concititary spirit, and by adIiua
her vote to Adams and Jackson, they IS i'll be G.
ectel by the people, anil the alarming prospec
OF an election by congress, or no ciection at all
