The Madisonian. [volume] (Washington City [i.e. Washington, D.C.]) 1837-1845, 1838-12-11

a 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.
Al a 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 10 indicate-such as shall seem
best calculated 10 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 TO 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 II,
whenever the preservation of the constitution ceas-
es to be our first and chief object.
We are moi to be understood, in any view, as for
saking Democratic REPUBLICAN principles The
merit of aposacy belongs TO the Executive, and the
friends, whose political fortunes he has involved.
Those principles, in any event, we shall firmly adj
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 other matters.
That they have honestly differed should be suffi-
cent reason for not INDUCING in elimination and
recriminaiion in relation 70 the past Let former sr
only means by which one harmonious movement
may be made 10 restore the Government TO its an
cient purity, and to redeem our republican inStitu
tons from the spirit of radicalsm, which threatens
to subvert them.
That small patriotic band that have dared 10 sepa-
rate themselves from rarity to 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 them!
