10 strengthen the Executive arm, and give it
dangerous power. Has not the present Executive
proposed measure, that goes far beyond any
thing thought Of by the Federalis,s-we mean
the sub-treasury scheme. That scheme has now
been In operation without any law Of the people, !
but by the will Of Mr. Van Buren,. for six months.
and yet the government has not one dollar Of
gold and silver at its disposal In this six months,
perhaps 100000 Of dollars has been paid
to the receivers Of public monies in coin, and
not one dollar has been paid out to the people
true, the office holders have received their wages
and rewards in specie; but the people have been
paid tor their labor in deprecated and inconvcr !
tb!e paper. We do not pretend to call the spois !
party Feder eralists-no, by means, they un-
worthy the name. Their acts would have dis
graced the characters Of those ilIustrious patriots
who advocated those principles We believe the
Federalsts were mistaken in their theory Of
government, experience has proven. But Mt
one time, we had almost dcspaired we feared
that the corruption Of those in power. and the
strange infaiuation Of party feelings would have
placed our government in the hands Of reck-
less band Of selfish politicians. Bat a new day
has dawned-the cause Of real Democracy is in the
ascendant, and the Democracy Of Numbers have
rebuked the officeholders in tone that will no
doubt shake their faith. We presume to nought
but an humble opinion, but consider those
who will endeavor to throw reproach a party,
when many Of that party their leaders, as
unworthy the confidence Of community, and that
their acts the most d,spicable that dis
graced set Of shameful politicians.
