The Madisonian. [volume] (Washington City [i.e. Washington, D.C.]) 1837-1845, 1838-09-08

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 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 10 concentrate the greatest DsMocRA
TIC REPUBLICAN support-to overthrow the measures
which have, thus far proved destructive 10 the best
interests ofihe country, and at the same time TO send
into retirement the men who have attempted 10 force
them upon a reluctant and resisting people
Above all, such as shall be most likely TO preserve
the CONSTITUTION of the country to perpetuaie its
UNION, and totransmt the public Liberties, unmpair
ed TO posterity, We constantly remember the name
we have assumed and we shall be unworthy Of IL,
whenever the preservation of the constitution
es to be our first and chief object.
We are not TO be understood, in any view, rs for
saking DEMOCRATIC REPUBLICAN principles. The
merit OF apostacy belongs 10 the Executive, and tie
friends, whose political fortunes he has involved,
Those principles, in any event. We shall firmly all
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 sufi.
cient reason for not indulging In elimination and
recriminaion in relation TO the past Let former err
rors all sides, be overlooked or forgotten, as the
only means BY which one harmonious movement
may be made TO restore the Government TO Its an
cient purity, and to redeem our republican instu-
tons from the spirit Of radcalism, which threatens
to subvert them
That small patriotic band, that have dared TO sepa
rate themselves from rarty TO serve their country,
occupy position lot less eminent than respon-
sibe. They hold the Balance Of Political Power.
Let il not tremble in their hands! And as they hold
il for their country 50 may the Balance of Eternal
Justice be holden for them!
