ist. Rssolred, That we deeply deplore
the effect of the late order Of the Secretary
Of the Treasury of tho United States, requir
ing Specie payments for Lands. while all
other payments TO the Government are re-
ceivablc in Pepper Currency-that we be-
lieve the said order has direct tendency to
Cypress the Poor Man, while it E,vors the
Rich land speculator--and is in violation OF
q law Of Congress requiring all payments to
be equal throughout the United States. And
we view the same an additional attack
upon the Currency Of the Country, no les,
delusive, than adverse to the interests of the
West.
end. Resolved, That the chicanery. ia,
terry and dup''city pract'sed by the Office
holders and expcctants, under the present
Administration. at their late Caucus held at
Baltimore, in bringing forward, AID seeking
TO impose Martin Van Buren, upon the Amer
scan People as a suitable candidate for the
next Presidency, under the magical name of
DEMOCRACY, is only another display of
modern Democratic Quackery. such as We
deem neither entities them to confidence or
respect, or rim to the suffrage Of the Ameri-
Gun People.
Sd. Resolved, That while we deem i. our
duty thus tO censure such hyrocritical con-
duct; we cannot but di.approvc the ma,gn
pr"scriptive policy, and deop-rootcd hostility.

people by the Spells Party, by bes,owine Of: =
ficcs upon the worthless rewards for Par
tizan zeal and services, and in the hope Of be-
