The Madisonian. [volume] (Washington City [i.e. Washington, D.C.]) 1837-1845, 1838-09-22

man whose whole course Of measures has been
but continual violation Of every sound tenet Of Re
publicanism, and one continued crusade against
popular rights and national interests.
AT proper time, the Madisonian will be prepared
10 sustain, Tor the highest Offices in the government
such "honest and capable" candidates as public
sentiment shall seem 10 ndcate-such as shall seem
best calculated 10 concentrate the greatest DEMocRA
TIC REPUBLICAN support-to overthrow the measures
which have thus far, proved destructive 10 the best
interests Of the country, and at the time TO send
into retirement the men who have attempted TO force
them upon reluctant and resisting people,
Above all, such as shall be most likely TO preserve
the CONSTITUTION of the country to perpeluate It's
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 II,
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 10 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 win undoubtedly be found acting in concert
many who have heretofore differed on other matters.
That they have honestly differed shonid be sum
Client reason for not induiging in elimination and
recrimination in relation 10 the past Let former
rors on all Sides be overlooked OF forgotten the
only means by which one harmonious movement
may be made TO restore the Government to its an
cient purity, and to redeem republican nstitu-
lions from the spirit Of radicalsm, which threatens
to subven them.
That small patriotic band, that have dared to sepa-
rate themselves from rarity to serve their country
occupy position not less eminent than respon-
sible They hold the Balance of Political Power.
Let it not tremble in their hands And as they hold
1t for their country 50 may the Balance of Eternal
Justice be holden for them!
