distant day TO saddle The country again with that greatest
and most formidable Of evils National Bank; the odious
efforts of the Wings, in endeavorng 10 visit all the mis-.
fortunes Of the day upon the Democratic party; their
vile policy OF contending mainly if not entre for the
ruin, demolition or subugaton of that party, instead Of
molly striving to promote foster the great interests OF
the people; their selfish and pullry party views which
induce them to contend more for the supremacy Of
party, than to vndcate principle; the clearly Indicated
intentions of the Wings, OF endeavorng to avail them
selves of the present state Of The public mind, 10 break
down President Van Buren, and substitute in his place
Henry Clay, the friend OF Adams, the great Abolition
champion, and the friend and advocate OF renewal OF

Of their folly, but in pliment to prowess. Fur
