We deem it an indipensible duty, under exs-
ling circumstances, that all sound Democratic
Republicans should u, hesitatingly and boldly
speak their sentiments A review of the comb-
nation of opposite factisns, in the last Congress
of the United States, fol the purpose of suppant-
ing our present illustrioas Chief Magistrate, and
promoting their own aggrsndizement, regardless
OF the interest and prosperity of the country, we
believe, reasons sufficient to arouse the Amer
lean people to sense of tleir duty, and to adopt
every honorable means to concentrate and unite
the Republicans in every quarter OF the Union,
In the support of the re-clecuon of Andrew Jack
son. With his success, We believe is identified
the durability of the Union, and perpetuty of the
Government. The veto of the President upon
the Bank Bill, has our entire and fullest approba-
ton, and has established our confidence in his
patriotism, ,disinterestedness and devotion TO his
country. oar ears are necessarily saluted with
the cries of the opposite party, of 'usurpation of
power" "ruin and bankruptcy upon the country
in consequence Of the veto upon the Bank Bill.''
But we are proud of being numbered with that
class of republicans who are willing to farego a
ny Inconvenience, or bear any deprivatlons, that
Pay attend the dissolution of the Bank, rather
man build up and cherish within our country a
moneyed aristocracy, possessing powers to sub
vert the Government, and, according TO the Ian
guage of Its friends, to rsin aud bankrupt the
country
Resolred therefore, That Andrew jackson
President of the United St%es, is entitled to our

of Andrew Jackson, to the Office of President of
the United States, for another Term of four years
from the fourth of March next, and that we do

Convention held in Baltimore in May last, and
will heartily support the election of Martin Van
