We do not entertain moments doubt, their about
the real character OF the Baltimore Convention. Most,
not all, the Delegates, who already appointed,
Clay men-Mos' ii not all those here after be appoint
ed, will be Clay men-An overwhelming majority will
be for Clay and i, is useless disguise the thing
How Tar Clay friends here might have served his
cause by their holiness, rather by their policy, they
are OF better judges than we can pretend be

For our own pare, are glad that the hiends o

let The issue he uied fully before the People; and II
q People be with them, lei iheir will be done. th.
nond is sg.iss, us, but Virginia ia with Us R,x,t
welcome--however, are they to make the experiment -
and IL hey ,hi'k they DO any good by such a
Pfesmble and Resolutions, sgAip we say, tSsy are
weitome to try ~ LNtihen take S ephen Sinp-cn',
Protocol, ard work il up TO suit themselves. L., hen
blame the President II ,hey pss.s, b. c,use he has
seen tn 20 eSieDd h maxim alb tut APRON imeni Of
members OF Ccrgcesssnd has chosen TO take his Sc
eretaies or foreign ministers; hecanuse he has taken
Lewis MrLsne TO redeem the West India Trade, whc,,
heir friends had los and wn C. r YES TO settle our
Claims with Fence. Li them charge the Pr.side,,
with "n'imids'ion ard bribery" with "rni,rulr ave-
and With Profigacy"-LN them charge the tnan
whose amlies, ambition is saaied With puhlis
hoDors, and who IL known 10 be solieious OF The 70
tirement Of the Hermi age, with "sloopng to The
most degrading articles 10 eHeel' his re.elec ion
re election, which seeks him, and in which he ac-
quiesces only because he believes it TO be the wish of
the People. Let them charge him with tyranny, in
turning out revolutionary officers OF adequate
cdOns and bending his agents TO ga blind subserven-
cy to his wil'-Let them multiply one Treaty into
"rcatics them caricature his denominations
"pervert' his acts-denounce him for his Maysville
Veto for which he deserves the thanks OF every friend
OF the Consuion-Let them censure him for all that
he has attempted 10 bring back TO the old republican
tack-Let them, in the face of Col. Johnson's positive
declarations and OF Mr.. Branch's admissions, charge
him with the design OF controlling the intercourse of
private society Let Their throw all his good acts en-
trely out OF views and hold him up painted Devil"
Still the People have TO pass upon the fidelity OF their
portrait Sill they will do him ustice-and thew will
judge him, not according 10 the passions of his oppo-
nents, but upon hi, own meri;s-not extenualing his
errors, but allowing him credit for all the services he
has rendered to his country and for the moral
which he has displayed in asserting his pr ncipes even
when OF his friends thought il unnecessary 10
risk his popularyIhey, too win look forward TO the
services he is so well qualified TO render-hs assisting
in the extinction OF the public debt-the arresling of a
wild scheme of eXiravagant appropriations reduc-
ton oil the taxes-:he large modification of au odous
Tariff
But the People will take this other view OF the oues-
ton.-If we put this patriotic aside then whom
shall we have to preside the Administration? NJ
Clay-who has not great constitutional principle
in common with Vrgnis-the father OF the American
Systematic advocate OF the Maysvie Road, and an
llimitable system of internal Improvements first the
opponent OF Mr.. Adams, and then lis aly--now the
man who gaze him the first office in the Union, and
then, the man who accepted from him the first Of
flee under his administration
