The country has been governed for the last
eight years by Executive edicts; and Congress I
wi be occupied for the next four years in restor-
ing what President Jackson has DESTROYED: Con- /
ess has always been disposed to do right, where
y it was not thwarted BY domineering and u
kping Executive. :
CONGRESS passed Mr.. Claws Land Bill-but the
EXECUTIVE DESTROYED ii.
CONGRESS rechartered the National Bank-the
EXECUTIVE destroyed it.
CONGRESS said that the deposites were safe in
the Bank OF the United States-thc EXECUTIVE
remov ed them
CONGRESS refused to issue a Specie Circular-it
was issued by the EXECUTIVE
CONGRESS rescinded the Specie Circular-and
The EXECUTIVE debated the rescison.
Now the doctrines We have always acted upon
are expressed in the sentiment of Thomas JEFF
ferson: The rH of tie majority, honestly crprcs-
sed should giro lar
We assume that the best exponent of the Pop
niar ViH is the decision of the Representatives.
Of the People; and we have always been DESTROYS
OF carrying into effect their will thus expressed.
This, says Mr.. Jefferson. is the object of the
WHIGs. The Jacksonians. on the contrary, have
maintained that the Erecufire, and not Congress,
spoke the roice Of the people, and have always
been the advocates for measures that would
strengthen the Erecusire. This, says Mr.. Je.ier-
son, is the object Of the Tories.
1t Is nota little singular that the same distinc-
tons were drawn by Mr.. VAN buren, himself in
speech in the Senate of the United States:
TORIES of England said this gentleman,
''strivd by all the means within their reach. to
increastEthe DOMINION AND INFLUENCE OF THE
TIIRON at the expense of the COMMONS
and the QPLE; and the WINGS to counterfeit
the cxcrtid a their adversarics, by abridging
that dominion influence, or the advancement
of the rights ail0Sshc consequent ameioration Of
the condition Of the people. The Tory principle
seeking to absorb, as far practicable, ALL
POWER from its legitimate sources, and to con-
dense it in a SINGLE HEAD; the Vine, being
an antagonist principle, laboring as assduous!y
to RESIST THE ENCRoACHMENTs and LIMIT TIKI
EXTENT of EXECUTIVE AUTHORITY. The
former is essentially the MoNARCnIAL, and the
latter the DEMocRAT.CAL spirit of society"

country? Do the people complain of the opprcs-
sive edicts of our modern Pharaoh?-They are
told to ego home and go to rorI.' When our
people went up to their rulers, to ask a repeal of
the Order requiring specie for land, they were
answered by taro Other orders, requiring specie
for customs, and specie for hostages! Mark the
time too, when these fresh outrages were perpe-
Itrated: The government for near year, had been
boarding the specie Of the country in the vaults
of the Pet Banks-Those Banks have ''suspend-
ed specie payments''-in other words, refuse to
pay out the specie, even on their own notes. And
that is the precise time selected by Pharaoh and
his task-masters to give two additional turns to
the screw Of oppression! Verify are the people
