ecoming delicacy of the candidate him
elf, that he would rather "pluck out the ;
airs OF his head" or " the earth swallow
P himself and ALL" than reveal to any
ian his sentiments on this agitated ques-
on.
We have been directed also, by the mi t
ated IN these mysteries, to believe, that |
ackson's own witness and his own friend,
loved by his own views and acting on his {
wn responsibility, seeking to seduce the |
mbltion of MIR. Clay by the office of Sec {
9tary OF State, for the purpose of promot- '
lg Jackson's election-was, indeed, and in t
God sooth, an agent employed by Clay to
orrupt the Hero! And we are called up
to swallow, without hesitation, these |
onstrous absurdities even to doubt, is /
bring down upon US denunciation and S
buse. |
And must we tamely submit to this ca
rlclous and arrogant dctation? The I
ride OF my countrymen, their re gard for !
lie sacred maxim that the civil shall be t
to the military authority, and '
leir loyalty to the Constitution, will forbid I
! Turn, then, to these presumptuous |
and ask them if they dare 1
ssert, that they believe Jackson qualified c
n the Presidency ?-if they have any i
opes OF his success but in the abuse of
dams? Why do they cry out daily, /
cruelty Adamsm whose only offence is t
is theory of Interpretation, which has been t
ASHAMED by the practice of the Govern {
ent for forty years-and at the same time J
lpport jackson, whose acts have shown an {
tier contempt of the Constitution What {
ldividual has Mr.. Adams oppressed ?
Vhat Legislature has he insulted? What {
Governor has he threatened? What Court '
as he polluted by his military array ? t
What Judge has he forced from his seat !?
oes the blood of his fellow-citi2ens cruel
and illegally shed, mark his footsteps I
Viii these idolators of General jackson c
~ that he is free from any of these acts? s
Viii they dare deny or palliate his deeds ? {
10! But still they presume to ask of us
lr snffrages in his behalf for the highest {
lice in our gift, and seek to seduce us by l
presenting him, in their mincing lam |
uage, as the lesser eUd" What, | ask
OH, is the wisdom of such policy? We
ave tried adams. We know, at least, of
i'm, that he will be guilty of no violence

ackson, on the contrary, may serve for

How does it happen, that the desperate I;
nd profigate, with few exceptions, are the
lost clamorous advocates Of Jackson If :
