The manifesto of this meeting was intended as a
counter part to the Declaration of Independence The
several acts OF misrule of Gen. Jackson set forth
in words which intended TO infame the whole
I"American Peope'-and that nothing might be left
unsaid to which the most reckless of the Opposition has
ever objected, he is charged with rejecting bill by
the exercise OF his veto on the ground of expedience
when the meeting knew, o ought to have known tina
| Cen Washington had done the same thing. And has
II come TO this, that's President is tyran who exer
| cises his constitutional authority in Directing TO bill
when the assumption OF ungranted power by Congress
to the oppression OF one portion of the Union for the
benefit OF another produces one word of complaint
from the same guarter
| Well might an honest republican say that the "mes
are strangely out of joint and well might il be said
that there is now just for the people OF the United
States TO look well TO their affairs Never there
more important crisis, and it would seem that all the
energies OF the best heads and stouest hearts were
required TO guide us into the port of safety The oh.
ect OF the resolutions adopted, cannot be mistaken
The meeting goes against Jackson, and agains every
one, save MIR. Clay. The 2d and 81 resolutions demon.
strate this. There is then to be struggle between
Clay and Jackson alone. Let il take place. and wheI
the people OF these States find that the Federal part,
have been joined by the Clayiies, they will put then
down by an overwhelming majority. They never car
be brought TO yield TO the impression that what is called
'nOrus homo, man born in the humble walks of life
and not OF an arisocrac family should on that accouD
be made to give way TO native lord OF the land.
