We congratulate you on the recent glorious triumph

will not "grow weary in the ways Of political well
doing"
II is due candor TO say that have lost all conf
dence in Mr. Van Buren,. He possesses neither ho-
nesiy nor independence. He has proved recreant TO
every principle on which he was elevated TO power:
He has assaed the banking and crcdi, institutions of
the States to which we are SO largely indebted for
prosperity and greatness
He has attempted to enlarge to fghtiu extent the
boundary OF Executive power and patronage;
lie has attempted to concentrate in his person.
the entire monetary and political power of the country
through the ins,rumenality Of the SubTreasury--a
measure which promises to the Republic aud her free
institutions, nothing but unmixed and unmltigated i'll
He has attacked the sovereignty Of the States,
through their own institutions and has aimed at the
Capitalization and consolidation of power: .
He has endesvored to take from the people the con-
troll and management OF the public treasure, wrung
rom their honest industry and place it under his
unlicensed control, unresrained by law-tbus attempt
ing to place IN his possession the Of corruption
and OF the perpetuation Of his power:
lie has, through his pensioned press, denounced and
grossly slandered members Of Congress for the fearless
and honest discharge OF their duty--thus aiming
deadly blow at the purity of legislation and the indie
pcndence Of Congress
Through that press he has proclaimed virtually that
!" the party like the King, lean do wrong" and
ii man dare dissent in the slightest degree from Exc
cntive recommendation, he does it at the peril of uro
scription and abuse
He has placed himself in alliance with the nullifers
Of the South and at the head of the oco-oco party of
the North, party which threatens to rupture all the
ties religious social, commercial and POLITICAL which
bind society together
To this party we owe no allegiance and with it will
hold no political communion
What, then, Is the duty Of the Conservatives To
stand by their principles Let us continue our orgau
zaton-ready at all times TO rally the side OF our
country. Every day will add to our numbers Our
principles commend themselves TO the patriot and the
philanthropist. They will ultimately triumph in the
Union. @n. A.. tx. *. .. .u
