The Committee appointed to prepare
Resolutions, reported by Mr.. CHANDLER,
the following which were unanimously adj
opted.
Resoloed, That the cause of the WHIGs
is the cause of REPUBLICAN LIBERTY-and
that through all trials and against all inftu-
ence, il is our duty to maintain it.
RESOLVED, That the Public Revenues
have been squandered to corrupt the Peo-
Pile, and that the Sub Treasury scheme is
calculated and designed to facilitate and
perfect this system of corruption, and to
purchase the People with their own money.
RrSoired, That the Leaders of the Ma
tional Administration, under the disguise
of Democracy, and with the pretence of
peculiar regard for the People, advocate
series Of measures calculated to concen-
trate power and patronage in the hands of
the Executive, and to enrich and aggran-
die holders and spectators alone,
while they tend to depress the industry
degrade the morals and undermine the lib
critics of the whole communicated have
thus proved themselves practical success
ors Of the Revolutionary Tories.
ReSolUed, That the Offices of Govern
ment, and their emoluments should be only
such as are for the benefit of the People
and the specimens Of Swartwout, Price and
others of that kind, prove SUB-TREAsURIEs
TO be dangerous to the holders and runous
to the country.
ReSolued, That the protection of the
FISHERIES is of essential importance, not
only to this section, but also to the whole
country, as the best nursery for SEAMEN---
the life and glory--the dependence and
right arm, of our Navy in time of war;
we regret the hostility Of the present Adj
minlstration to this great and important in
terest as indicated by the recent efforts Of
Benton, and other leaders OF Wan Buren,
Loco focoiSm
ReSoired, That to preserve the integrity
Of her Territory is the first duty Of the
State-and one, which cannot be omitted
without peril and disgrace.
Resolved That the early measures Of
the present Governor, however inferior IN
Judgment and dignity to those of his prede-
cessor, yet having for their object for the
first time under partlZan OF the late OF
present administrations, the preservation
of our unquestionabIe rights, deserved as
they received the unanimous support Of the
people and their Legislature.
Resolced, That the subsequent conduct
of the State Government in rcrntling lis
efforts and especially in yielding for the
first time exclusive jurisdiction OF part OF
the State, to foreign power, deserves the
Reproduction Of all patriotic citizens.
Resoioed, 'That though Fairfield may be
able to steer the ship of State while at her
moorings,' EDWARD KENT is emphaucally
the man to take the command when she is
under sall--the tempest bowling and the
Aroostook Breakers under her lee.
RcsolUed, That to promote the greatest
good Of the greatest number is cardinal
principle of the Whigs--and TINT in eds"
seminating" and sustaining it, we make no
"sacrifce Of private feelings"
See Resolutions Of the Loco loco Con-
vention at Wiscasset and the last two will
be better understood. Ed. Tel.
Resolrcd, That we have the fullest con-
fidence in the ability, political integrity and
sound Republican principles of ISAAC
REED, JAMES ERsKINE, WILLIAM M
REED and Moses TIBBETTs, and that we
will give them our cordial and univlded sup
port to represent this Senatorial District n
the next Legislature: And also--That we
will support JACOB LUDWIG for the office
Of County Treasurer--beIieving him emf
nently qualified for, and highly deserving
that trust.

in the nomination aud dongs of the Wing
State Convention, holden at Augusta last

ton, signed by the President and Secreta-
