To The Democratic Republican, Members of The House
Of Representatives. from the State Of Tirginia:
a new and extraordinary position is about TO be assum-
ed by the dieren, parties in the United States and as
you represent by the least interesting portion of
our eou9rymen, hope you will give an humble citizen
OF your State your attention for a faw moments while he
endeavors to lay before few facts and his conclu-
sions from tbem worthy to be considered in the present
Juncture OF our public affairs.
You were all friendly to the election of Andrew Jack
son. because you believed he would bring the Govern
ment back TO the standard OF the Constitution as expoun
ed by Jefferson.
You objected 10 the principles on which Mr. Adams adj.
nnsered the government, and conformity with the Re-
publican party placed the contest between him and Gen
Jackson on tue ground which had divided the Federal and
Republican parties In this contest MIR. Adams and the
Which your hostility to Mr. Adams rested
were the system Of Internal improvements the Tariff and
,he w. ,. Bank; Under that administration you know
these evils would never have been corrected But the
people, you and your constituents forming part Of them
triumphed, and Andrew Jackson elected
Aiming AT the overthrow OF the Federalism which had
under the administrations OF the father and son, laid
lent hands the bond Of Union liberty and safe

principles maintained by yourselves, aud concurring with
you H. opinion that IL II ought TO be re. chartered he
placed his the self act which the greater
part Of you had resisted, aqd to which all Of you OPP

Thus he has indicated the Constitution Of coun-
try broken the chords by which the Government was
connected with the systems OF bounty and protection
Afforded TO portion only Of The people OF common
country: and finally, in further unison with your own
principles and views he has refused to re-charier the
u. States Bank In oil The leading measures ia which you
anticipate his concurrence with you, you have found him
iaslJ ing reasonable expectation bot fulfilling ALL Who
could do more Whom could you 6nd 10 do much q!
Not one IN these regards Andrew Jackson has cur.
ed the errors and corrected the vices OF the last sixteen
years commencing with the ever. error
\ Of Mr.. Msdson the Bank charter, and running
through the terms OF the viituous, but eyef-doubt-

No msn now alive better hied 10 act the chief exc
