 efConnecticut, in secret assembly conrened.
 PUBLISHED" IN ANT1crPAr1oN.)
 Resolved, That all offices are for the exclusive ben eft of the oiceholders, to be used by them in such manner as tends mostly to the advancement of their power and interest.
 Resolved, That although all power emanates from the people, yet it concentrates in the President of the United States the supreme head and all persons who hold to opinions or principles different from hs are enemies to their country whether his are right or wrong"
 Resolved, Tha, the principles of Democracy are progressive and although the doctrine of Jefferson that the only question to be asked in relation to can ddates fr office should be, lis he honest is he coabe is he Ju M to the constitution ?" probably answered for that age at present it should be, does he believe in all things that the President would have him, &C., know'edging that he as the supreme head of the go- vernnr.t do wrong, and likewise do all in his power 10 support the party?
 Resolved, That the President in taking the oath of office s bound to see that the laws are executed he understands them any decision of the Supreme Court act of Congress to the contrary notwithstanding Resolved, That we approve of the Sub Treasury bill as recommended by tho President since it tends directly to consolidate all power in the hands of the Executivc--as he would have the power of appoint ing all officers for receiving and keeping all moneys belonging the United States, and dsnssing from of flee all who do not belong 10 his party, or conform in all respects to his will
 Resolved. That although we must profess. great love and respect for the people, and claim respect and approve their decisions when they are in our f vor, yet we conceive it imprudent to trust them with the appointment of Judges, Shers, Justices of the Peace, &c-as in some towns men would be appon- who do not belong to our party, and we believe the patronage of the State and National government to be udspensably necessary for the preservation of the party, and consequently onr power.
 Resolvcd That it is the duty of the government to ray its officers in gold and silver for their services but the people ought to be satisfied with such pay as the President shall see fit to provide; he being the ore me head of the government one has right to question the propriey of his paying them in rags or say to him "why do ye so P
 Resolved, That in denouncing Banks, we wish to be distinctly understood as meaning only such Banks do not appoint directors and other officers belong ing to our party, and who will not pledge themselves 10 support us but whenever we find by chartenng new bahk VIC can promote our own interest, we shaE hesitate comply with the wishes of the people, Resolved, That we utterly opposed to Nation al Bank, and uniform currency throughout. the country, because the brokers and many ofthe govern ment agents would be entirely of business or lose at least grea, portion of their profits and we find the better they paid, the zealous they in eIec,ionccring for us.
