earldoms Of half the civilized, unclvillzed
and barharous countries Of half the world,
from the Grand Sultan of the Turks down
to the obscure Prince Of a little island, to
nrove TO THE AMERICAN People that Kings
subjects are kept in better subsection, and
that the rule of one man Is more easy and
more tyrannical where the public revenues
are kent under his sole con troll. And strange
to tell, this fact is introduced 81 this era of
the world, TO the people of free nation
who are enterprising and intelligent, to con-
vince them That the same kind Of system
should be adopted here! Thus it IS thatthe
only unstained escutehe on Of LTBERTY hat

ATTEMPTED 10 be sullied. And thus are its
standard bearers attempted to be insultled
aud I'M ured.
But. thanks to God, there is remedy for
these evils. Yes. there Is g remedy The
remedy is in the hands Of the people; then
let it be applied.
It is to reform the abuses under which the
people of the country now suffer, which are
thus briefly sketched, and TO Feintroduce In
10 the administration of public affairs the
original principles and spirit of our republic
can democracy, that the wing party and the
great body of the people are now so earnest
Il struggling. Popular enthusiasm foams
upoa the top Of the wave. The people are
excited to reformation. The current is
deep and wide, and earthly power does not
exist that can stay its onward course.
And what is the opposition that the wings meet
in this contest for reform? They meet first, and
chiefly he mere force of numbers of men IN potceF.
But argument is also attempted to be brought INTO
the battle against reform. We viii not call a,con-
tradiction of plain and acknowledged facts argu-
ment. To deny that the word "talgtasso for M
stance thus expressly written means tGtsfa, and
declare that 1t means tf1Gtd1fdt9 as was kalSly
decided by the United States House Of Represen-I
tatives, is not, in the view of your committee, an
argument. To CIPHER $40, ,2I6 @ years ex-
penses) into about half that sum or something
over, is not argument. But there - popular ar
gument with the party, constantly sounded forth
By their men and their presses against the exer-
tions of the wings. To man not well aequaint-
ed with the signs Of our times it would excite
laughter and appear ridiculous to state It. But II
stands emblazoned upon the frontiees Of every
Van Buren, politician and every Van buren, press
and is part of the history of every day. And Il IS
this. bitter and unceasing denunciation OF
banks. A. continual ding dong OF rdlc1le ana
eDithet against the creatures of their own leglsa-
ton. Against the progeny OF their own unholy
alliance with unauthorized power. MS Is the
oDposition we meet We call upon the expert
snce and history Of every dayif 1t is not rue that
the chief opposition in the shape of argument,
which we meet is regular set to warfare against
that which we have ever opposed-that wh!eh mas
