A THIRD PARTY.

The Conservative Democratic Republicans
have been charged over and over again with
seeking to organize third party. Shortly af-
ter we made declaration Of principles, which
guided those who had been denominated con-
seruatiUes, we were simultaneously denounced
by the by authority" presses in every quar-
ter in a manner which left not a doubt on our
mind, that the assault was made per order
The Conservatives were charged with having
repudiated Democratic doctrines, and adopted
those of the old Federal school We met this
allegation, and have repeatedly challenged
those who made il to point out single arti-
Gle in the Conservative Democratic Republi-
can creed, which is not in strict accordance
with the Democratic doctrines and principles
laid down and adhered TO by Jefferson and
Madison No one has dared to accept the
invitation.
We again repeat the challenge, and again
aver, that the Conservative Democratic party
now occupy and maintain The original, and
true Jc1ersonian Democratic doctrine /; and
that the loco. foco party, and Subtreasury adj
vocates have strayed away from it, and are
trampling under foot some of the vital princi-
Piles upon which alone, the great patriarch
whose words we quote, considered the liber-
ties Of the People, and the principles Of the
Const tuition, could be eflectually secured.
Let all read the following:
OGce-toidcrs under himself
"The President of the United States has seen with
dissatisfaction, officers of the General Government
taking various occasions active parts in the cleo
lions of public functionarieS whether of the General
or State Government. Freedom Of elections being
essential 10 the mutual independence of government
and Of the different branches OF the same govern
ment SO vitally cherished by most Of our constitu-
tions, it is deemed improper for officers depending
on the Executive of the Union TO attempt TO control
or influence the free exercise of the elective right
Il is expected that no officer VIII attempt TO influence
the votes of otherm take any part in the BUSH
ness Of electioneerng-th being deemed inconSis
tent with the spirit of the constitution and his du-
! ties"
This was the condemnatory language
against the officers Of the General Govern
ment, who took any part in the election Of
public functionaries.
How are those doctrines observed by those
who now denounce us as being federalists
By those who arrogate to themselves the right
to ostracise and anathematize all who will not
serrilely yield to think and act as they do !! Let
the following extract of call for public
meeting in the city of Philadelphia answer.
Among other things the object of the call was
stated to be-:
in order to express their sentiments IN faror q he
restoration Of The Constitutional Treasury. and 81 me
BIZ reported bV The Hon Saas Virgil, for that Pur.
nose and of the entire and total separation Of Bank and

The Madisonian. [volume] (Washington City [i.e. Washington, D.C.]) 1837-1845, 1838-03-15

Among the names appended 70 this call, as
we stated in our last. are found those Of
GEoRcE WoLf, Collector Of the Customs,
DOM HoRN, Naval Officer,
JAMES PAGE, Postmaster,
john nj. READ, District Attorney,
and in addition, largenumber Of the sub-or-
dinate officers Of the Custom House and
subseryients in the Post Office.
Now let the American people read and
ponder well on the object Of the meeting thus
called by officers Of the General Government.
Was il connected with the free exercise Of the
elective rightl No. Far different; Ear
worse; and far more direct interference
with the DIVINE AND INALIENABLE
RIGHTS OF THE PEOPLE. TWAS to
express sentiments, against the free exercise
of the rights Of the peoples representatives,
the right TO instruct their Senator'S right
OF immemorial usage under the Jeffersonan
Democratic principles and maintained by all
who have professed them.
Who isit, that is forming third partyl II
IS those who are totally disregarding all the
principles and practices of Jeferson--who
are aiming to overthrow our domestic institu-
tions-who are striving to centralize despo-
tic power in the hands of the officers Of the
General Government. by placing in their
hands the exclusive possession, and the entire
control, management and disposition of the
peoples treasurer Yes the disposition of
that treasure which every individual member
Of society contributes in greater or less de-
gree to accumulate
Shall such proceedings as these be long
tolerated Shall they be permitted in this in
stance to pass unnoticed--to pass unpunish-
ed We hope not; and most respectfully do
we request the notice of the Executive Chief
Magistrate to the following
Eriract from President Jackson's Inaugural address
.s March 4fh, 1929.
tThe recent demonstrations Of public sentiment
nscribes on the list of Executive duties in charac-
tiers too legibe TO be overlooked the task of reform
(which will require particularly the correction of
those ABU SE.S THAT HAVE BROUGHT THE
PATRONAGE OF HE FEDERAL GOVERN
MENT INTO CONFLICT WITH THE FREE
DOM OF ELECTIONS"
Are not the abuses by the interference Of
the government officers, and their official in
fuence which we now see attempted to be ex-
ercised for the purpose OF overawng the peo-
PIES representatives, Of paramount impor-
lance to the liberties of the citizens, than
any interference whatever Of theirs in the
" freedom of elections ~ Such an nterfe-
renee is well calculated, and ought to cause
alarm on the part Of the people. If such an
arrogant attempt on the part of the govern
ment officers is not reproved and checked by
their superiors, it behooves the people to do it
themselves. Such an outrage upon their dear
est rights should be nipped in the bud; if not
it may expand beyond their control.
Bearing on the same subject, we give the
following:
Eriract from speech dclireyed the Senate Of u. s.
by The Hon. Fctir Grundy
"When see Office holder interfering in elections,
occurs to that he is thinking Of his salary and his
bread AND is THEREFORE AN UNFIT AID
WISER OF THE PEOPLE"

A CARD.

venerable editor Of the Richmond Enquirer, and as
sures him, that he should not have disturbed the
equanimiiy Of his temperament but for an act of in
decorum, Gas he lhinks) on the part of that gentle
man, in ascribing the productions of an anonymous
writer TO individual whom he chose TO single out
and specifically name. Vaerius Publius, will here

THE SPECIAL DEPosrTE SCHEME, &C.

THE SPECIAL DEPOSITE SCHEME, &C.
In justice to the Richmond Enquirer, we
insert his reply TO !" Valerius Publius," (our
correspondent although in doing so, we are
doing mol as we have been done by. We hope
the controversy will here cease. As to the
special deposite scheme we hope the Enquirer
will give il up-we can perceive no good 10
be derived from pressing it. We only see in
it danger of dividing the opponents of the
Sub-treasury, and better prospect of success
given to that miserable measure. Our know
ledge may be limited, but we know of not
single member in either House of Congress
who is in favor of the special deposite plan.
1t is considered by all parties as utterly inn
practicable, and by the leading members of
the Sub-treasury party is openly and strongly
denounced. The Chairman of Finance in
the Senate has denounced it, and the Chair
man of the Committee of Ways and Means
in the House has responded to the denun-
citation. The Conservatives deny its prac-
ticability, and the Wings repudiate it as "non-
sense and quaekery." With all Difference to
the Enquirer, what is to be gained by persist
ing in urging its adoption under these circum-
stances, but delay, embarrassment and perhaps
defeat. We have seen no satisfactory reason
given, why Mr. Rtres' substitute should not
be adopted We are as much opposed to
aristocracy, special privileges, and abuses of
banking, as the Enquirer, or even the Globe.
But we really think that all salutary reforms
are to be made by gradual means, not by pre-
cipitaton and destruction. We do not think
the present state Of things would justify the
/" civil revolution" demanded by the Loco
focos ofNew York in 1929. We are willing TO
60 as far as any body, in erudicating the criis
of the present system, but we insist on pre-
SERVING its benefits. Mr.. Rives' plan does not
conflict with, or obstruct any salutary measure
Of reform, and il is the only plan proposed
that has any practical tendency TO reiisre the
country, or TO inspire any hope that the bene-
fits Of the credit system are 10 be preserved
The Sub-treasury scheme is an innovation,
not n measure of reform. II is not applica-
bic TO tie existing state Of affairs, nor demand
ed by the wants Of the people. The special
deposi,c scheme is met by the same objection.
Il is not measure of relief nor Of security.
The people demand something to meet The
-erigeney. Mr.. Riyes' plan comes nearest
to their wishes, and il is the part Of every pa
triot TO sustain il.
