That the effect Of the SUCCESS of these opei atoms
would be to place the Government of the Unit
ed States in the hands of an organized and dis
cipined party, instead of the hands of the lesit-
innate sovereign, the People.
That the Hon. Martin Van Buren, Senator
from New York, represents this party, and is
necessarily the life and soul, and bone and sim
ew of it.
That the success of this organization would be,
therefore, necessarily, to place the whole OF the
routine of the high public offices, and all the
important legislation Of the country, under the
absolute control of that distinguished citizen.
That such success would be an usurpaton of the
rights of the People, and tyranny of odious
complexion.
Whether our deductions are just or otherwise,
is for our readers to decide, and for the present
we willingly leave the question with them. Whe-
ther the concerns of this great nation are to be
placed under the control of National Caucus.
anticipating and superseding the ordinary forms Of
legislation, as we'll as the process OF free popular
election, is grave question which we call upon
the people of the United States to examine and
decide. That the attempt has been made to in
troduce this system into the General Government,
there can be no doubt Emboldened by partial
success the Senate of the United States, subjected
to the dominion of this system, has been exut-
ingly proclaimed the controlling power of the
Government, and even the examination of the
Speech Of member of the boasted majority OF
that body has been pronounced dangerous breach
Of privilege. We shall see, in the result, whether
these corruptons Of our political system-these
heightened aristocratc principles-this combina-
ton of secret purposes with boosted power and
asserted privilege, will be countenanced by the
appreciation of an intelligent People, or will re-
ceive their indignant condemnation.
