Press in lS2S.-The Editor will labor foe

idency, upon the saas Grsssds, AID fiom
the same motives, which actuated him, in
his endeavoss to elevate Gen. Jackson to
that high station; to wit: to purify the
councils Of the country-t0 wrest o6cial
power from the hands q corrupt and dan.
gerous men, to support THE COMMON

The Editor most positively denies that
he has experienced tho slightest change
ID his political principles, since lo36.
He is now, - ever, tho accompanying
enemy Of the Bank Of the United Staaes,
and Of all Bank and other chartered No.
noPolies. He 10 for retaining power, -
much as possible, ia the hands Of The Pso-
ple-for - frequent elections, moderate

bers Of Congress 70 lucrative o6sces-fos
esta blishing the strictest accountability
in all official stat,ons-for . rigid impair
tiali,y in the distribution Of Offices, - that
the rich and the psor should be equally
lentitled to the hOnofs Of their country;
and that merit, talent and patriotism, { and
not political servili:y,) should eoassitute
the only recommendations to fsme and
favour-And he entirely accords With
Gen. Jackson, in the noble declaration
contained in his first Inaugural Address
that ''the patronage Of the Government
should never be brought into conflict With
the freedom Of the elective franchise" In
a word, the Editor 10 the same kind Of .
JACKSONlAN he was in Us He w,ll
contend for the same great priaciPles Of
national policy and the same expected
results. But he now finds Gen. Jackson,
in 'the sunset Of bic day." inbecile.
lcredulous, and infatuated with q vile Co.
bal Of sinister demagogues, BY whom h. 10
surrounded, and Who have actually wre0t-
ed form HIM, except in from and name, oil
the Official power Of the Government,
which they are sppropriating for their ON
aggrandizemest, and for the building up Of
their fortunes out Of the National Treaou-
Try.
The Editor ha6 personal and intimate
knowledge Of the above fscts.-He we'll
knows that MARTIN VAN buren,, aod
his retainers At Washington, have grossly
deceived and betrayed Geo. Jackson, and
are now utterly regardless Of his iu,sss
fame or happiness, % that they can sies
upon the spoils Of the Treasury. and dc
penss the patronage of the Administsatiea
to suit their own purposes. He 0oeo
thought otherwise, and hoped otherwise.
For a long time he felt almos, incliaed -
resist the evidence Of his senses, % strong
was his attachment 10 Gen. jackson,
and % afdentl, did he strive to sustain
the honor and integrity Of his Admiaistra-
ton. But to use Gen: Jackson's favorite
motto-''truth 10 mighty and must prevail
THE vANDAIS ARE IN THE CAPl-
ITOL OF THE NATION. Corruption

in every Department Of the Govero0eat.
The liberties Of the people are in danger.
They must awake form the deceitful slu0.-
Der of sclfsecurity. They must grid o.

tive strength: assert their o~n rights and
pnvileges-oversum the tables Of tho
vile mosey-changers At Wssh;netoo; ssd
they will thus save their fireoides fro0 pei
iuties and destruction. Tho Editor does
- 6smly believe that the election Of Mar
tin Van Buren, would corrupt and destroy
the republican purity and simplicity ef
this Government, ~ that be has at this
moment an existence in the land Of Tie
living. He will. If his life and health 10
spared, exert his humble energses 70 pro
