ever been and still is Repubcan-the history Of his
whole life has been devotion to the cause OF republican
ptiucipes-Mr. Van Buren, is now and has always been
attached the principles During a long period
of pubc service he has struggled against the fede
raj party and has brough down upon hts head their IN
sat!ate vengeance. In the present contest, them Mr.
Speaker we have two candidates who have ever been
found on the side Of the strong government principles
and two who have been uniform IN their devotion 10
the nrpcples of rcpubcanism. will next inquire into
the p1;ncplcs and motives Of those who supporting
these respective candidates. And in doing this MIR.
Speaker shall state stubborn facts, which cannot and
will not be denied BY any gentleman on this floor.
The support which MIR. Webster is receiving is con-
fined 10 one portion Of the Union, and his supporters en-
tcrain exclusively the principles which are maintain
ed by their great lcader-They Fcderasts, and
side in the Northern States In other section of the
Union are there be found who pressing his
claims. There are Fcderasts in every State in the
Union who admire MIR. Webster and accord with hm
in sentiment but they sound not note in his behalf
Gen Harrison in like is sustained almost e&cu-
siyelv by the Federaliss in few of the Middle and
Northwestern Sates.-But arrive at an import
ant enquiry! Who sustaining Judge White and
Mr. Van Buren,. If do not answer this enquiry cor
rectly challenge gentlemen to deny my assertions
I affirm then, that Judge White is supported. out OF
Tennessee, almost exclusively by men who hold not
one political sentiment in common with hin-by men
who have ever aborcd TO destroy those principles which
he has labored 10 uphold. His support is notorious
~ confined to the States Of Virginia. and North Caro-
lna South Carolina, Georgia, Alabama, Mississippi and
Tennessee In Virginia, every newspaper which advo-
Gates the claims of White, has advanced either the
principles Of Federalism Notification. These papers
still advocate the same principles and yet they urging
the claims of Judge White Those men who have ever
been found in opposition to the measures OF the present
ADM nsration in Virginia, in favor OF Judge White;
and YET their ppostion The present Administration is
nubated. The members of Congress and OF the Legis-
laure who entertain Federal principles, arc claimed and
designated the friends of Judge White. Mr. Leigh:
the Notification, Bank Senator of that State, is also
the friend of Judge White. In North Carolina, the
facts arc nd!spuaby true as TO the newspapers
the Federal citizens the members Of Congress and OF
the Legislature and one Senator; every newspaper THAT
has opposed the present Administration, every cazeu
who has opposed it, every Congressman and every mem
Der Of the Legislature who have been unendy to the
republican cause, together with the Hon. W. T. Man
gum, Nu!fer, all, all are for White In S. Carolina
il not absolutely certain that any vote will be cast
but if it is, it is claimed for White, MIR. Calhoun Is
understood 10 be his friend In Georgia the rcuark
may he made, which have already made as to Virginia.
and North Carolina. Ii is we'll known that Judge hitc
has been nominated by n convention of Nuiers in that
State. AS 10 the States of Alabama and Mississippi the
remark made in reference to Vir ,noy ia THO main
be repeated. rcairm, then, that out OF the State OF
Tennessee the great body Of the supporters of Judge
White who dramatically opposed 10 him IN
their principles. But will here answer an objection
that has been urged in debate to this posonlt is sad
that will admit That any but Republicans con
sstently support Judge White, and yet hail the little
Federal State Of Rhode Island into ranks with joy
My answer is, that do gladly hail any State or any
their Federal principles Rhode Island has elected mem
bcrs Congress who enter tain Republican principles
we infer that she is redeemed and regcneratcd! But
how stands the with Judge White Federal ad Nu!
fying friends Are they changed NO sill, at the
~ moment when they halloo for White, they haoo for
the principles Of Federalism and Notification In the
Stale Of Tennessee we have but men who nave open
y uvowed the doctrines of Federalism. So far how
ever as my own information extends, hesitate not 10
state that every who has heretofore been openly
posed to the present Administration is now canorous

of his Tennessee friends Republicans good and true,
and that they support him either from their admiration

denial of the facts which | stale. affirm, that in no
State in this Union is he supported either generally or
even TO small extent, by any other than true Rrrub-
hcans! He is universally odios FcdrralIsts and Null
liners! Mr. Clay, Calhoun Webster, Pondexer, and all
the leading politicians of the two schools to which they
belong, have suffered opportunity to escape, whee
they could assail his character his conduct II there

does his support Gomez | answer, sir that it comes
from the great Republican Party-hat Party which
sustained Jefferson Madison and Mnnroc-that Party
which overthrow MIR. Adams, and which has ever
since supported Gen Jackson! | ask gentlemen to
point me to State in this Union Tennessee whose
Republican ewspapers, whose Republican members 10
