Whereas we have Witnessed latter

Iwo silence the clomor Of the dcmo.
Gratis, and TO counterfeit the possible
consequences of tho infamous san.
dcrs propagated by corrupt prints,
in regard to Supposed predictions
entertained by the State Rights men
for modern democracy" BE it
lst. Resolved, That we indig-
nsntly repudiate the foul SANDERS
circulated by the Democratic Press
and certain reckless apostat.s from
the cause Of truth, that the State
Rights men are rallyrng into the
ranks Of the Van Duren party.
end. Resolved, That prescription
TOR opinions sake not being any part
or parcel of our creed, We DO not
prescribe any portion or fragment Of
tie State Rights party who may be
advocates 81 the Independent reas.
ury Bill; but we do renounce all pos
litica connexion with those who
have .rccreantly iurled the State
Rights flag, and rushed into the pros
titnte embraces of Van Buren, "De-
mocracy," because they appreciate
one measure OF the administration.
3rd. Resolved, That we unre-
servcdly disapproye Of the Sub-lrea-
sury scheme proposed by the admin
istration; for instead Of perceiying
any tendency in the measure to d.
vorcc Bank aud Government, we
4 conceive il to be concentrating Bank
and Government, in is most flightiul
form, to-wit; by placing them both
in the hands ef one man, the Execu.
Iutlve.
4th. Resolved, That wo regard
the Sub-Treasury scheme Of the Par.
ty in power, rs unsultcd TO the times,
, uncongenial to the habits and condi-
ton Of the people, and totally sub
versive OF the cardinal principle dis.
played in bold relief in the structure
Of every free government, that the
. purse and sword should be retained
. in seperate and distinct hands; iol
the arbitrary power of removal witt
which the executive is armed by the
construction of the scll.styled he
r publican party, invests that high func
n tionary with unlimited control ovet
d ,hepurse Of the Union.
d 5ih. Resolved, That should thi
G substantial issue be presented beiof
Is the public-shall the purse OF til
# Union be controlled by the ExecO
e tive or Congress, that is. shall W
:, have a Sub.Treasnry or a Nations
y Bank,--wc, without the sightes
