same principlesEhat emboldened the de-
Ifiloofats Of '9S to resist the 'alen and Sc
ldition Iaws?" Are there not thousands Of
Eyoungmen in Ohio, who pride themselves
on being democrats, and who know
nothing of the original political prnci-
lples Of the party, and who have never
even read the Virginia and Kentucky
Resolutions of '99, the answers Of the
Federal Legislatures Of the several States
condcmning the same, and Mr.. Madlson's
celebrated report Of l99. Without the
history of those times, how are they to
Judge righteonsly Of the principles OF
either the advocates or opponents OF the
''alien and sedtion laws" or to give an
impartial verdict for or against either
party? How many papers IN Ohio gave
South Carolina an impartial hearing?
were there twenty, ten, or five, that pub-
lished her defence, and the democratic
documents Of '98 and $50 to which she
referred, as the publicly acknowledged
text book Of the democratic party? Were
there more than three papers in Ohio
that did not publish Gen Jackson's Pro
clamation, or laud it to the skies, as con-
tanning the true theory of our institutions?
Did not the press TEEN with every thing
) calculated to render South Carolina edi-
ous--to convict her Of treason and rebel
lion; and at the same time did 1t not with
: hold every thing tending to justify her
course before the citizens of her sister
! States? Is there one individual in Ohio
: who will deny that the democratic party
: of 1913 asserted the complete and entire
sovereignty of the States, and that the
|. Proclamation as unequivocally repudiates
l. it? Or is there one individual who will
risk his reputation by asserting that the
o Proclamation contains one sentiment in
