We portion OF the citizens of Albemare assembled
take ino consideration the propety of appointing deIeraes
to the Convention TO be held ia misplace the 18th inst
deem 1t proper that should, in brief manner declare
the principles 10y which actuated this occasion
we view with the livclles interest the approaching
election of Vice President of the United States We feel
Tie most anxious soic,ude in the result of that eecton

nigh and responsible station individual whose prnci-
pies are adverse TO own and in whose political charac-
ter do not recognize those traits which OUGHT To COM
mend him TO our confidence and support. We believe that
TO support an individual who has advocated measures which
we conscenously consider violation of the Constitution
oil The United States, would be virtual abandonment of
those principles which we have been taught revere as
the basis OF our republican form Of government Nothing
but the most mFeIOus necessity could induce us to sup
port an ndVdual Tor The wee Presidency, who voted for
The Tariffs OF 1927 and '2S-mcasues fraugh with the
most noXious principles which are now shaking
ths mon TO It's very centre, and which threaten TO break
up and destroy if forever.
Acting upon those principles, which have been inclcat-
ed by the Fathers OF the Constitutions and which have
heretofore characterized Virgnas proud and enviable ca
eer we are resolved to use our best endeavous
the election OF that individual whose whole political life
has been afdcny devoted TO the support of our principles
and who is in every respect worthy of the support OF the
Republican Party throughout the United Sales.--future fore
|. RESOLVED, That Philip p Barbour unitc within him
self all the requisite qualifications for the office Of Vice
President OF the United States; and that TO support him il
