The Madisonian. [volume] (Washington City [i.e. Washington, D.C.]) 1837-1845, 1838-12-13

man whose whole course OF measures has been
but continual violation Of every sound tenet OF Re
pubiicanism and one continued crusade against
popular rights and national interests
Al proper time, the Madisonian will be prepared
to sustain for the highest Offices in the government
such "honest and capable" candidates as public
sentiment shall seem To indicate-such as shall seem
best calculated TO concentrate the greatest DEMocRA
TIC REPUBLICAN support-to overthrow the measures
which have, thus far proved destructive to the best
Interests Of the country, and at the same time 10 send
into retirement the men who have attempted 10 force
them upon reluctant and resisting people
Above ALL such as shall be most likely to preserve
the CONSTITUTION Of the country to perpetuate its
UNION, and to transmit the public liberties unimpair-
ed TO posterity. We constantly remember the name
we have assumed and we shall be unworthy of IL
whenever the preservation Of the constitution ceaS
es to be our FIRST and chief object.
We are not to be understood, in any view, as for
saking DEMOCRATIC REPUBLICAN principles. The
merit OF apostacy belongs TO the Executive and the
friends, whose political fortunes he has involved,
Those principles, in any event. we shall firmly ad-
here to, and consistently and ardently support
In endeavoring to accomplish these great objects
there will undoubtedly be found acting in concert
many who have heretofore differed on other matters
That they have honestly differed, should be sufh-
cent reason for not INDUCING in elimination and
recriminaion in relation 10 the past Let former er-
rors all sides, be overlooked or forgotten as the
only means by which one harmonious movement
may be made 10 restore the Government to Its an
tons from the spirit OF radcalism, which threatens
to subvert them.
That small patriotic band that have dared TO sepa-
rate themselves from rarity 10 serve their country
now occupy position not less eminent than respon-
sible. They hold the Balance of Political Power
Let il not tremble in their hands. And as they hold
Il for their country, may the Balance of Eternal
Justice be holden for theml
