TO THE STATE RIGHTS AND ORR
GINAL JACKSON MEN.

Globe, are striking incidents in these extraor-
ainary times.
know Mr. Kendall his peculiar tact con-
sists in the unblushing impudence with which
he can deny the truth or assert falsehood
does he wish to circulate the extra Globe, and
nut money into his own pocket, he issues cir
cular addressed to every one of his party, re-
ouesting them to remit to him through the Post
masters, whom he authorises to frank the money.
Does he wish to stimulate them to greater eff
forts. he denounces as Illegal and dangerous to
the liberties of the country the dissemination OF
newspapers and documents by the opposition
members of Congress, while he lauds the same
thing on the part of the supporters of the federal
administration. And yet such glaring inconsis-
tencies, such perversions of truth the pillars
and props of the administration.
If it is right, in the new converts to Van Bu-
renIsm, to issue circulars, calling the people of
Alabama to send them money to be paid over to
Mr.. Kendall, is it very wrong in the members
opposed to Mr.. Van Buren, to organise commit
tee for the purpose of distributing newspapers and
documents calculated to cnlighten the public
government ? If it is right in the partisans of
the administration to SANDER Gen. Harrison
through the Globe, under their official frank, is
it Illegal for his friends to defend him under
their frank :
That you may see in bold relief tie extremity,
the glaring inconsistency, the double dealing and
and false reasoning to which MIR. Kendall re-
sorts, we place extracts from the Globe, in con-
trast with his circular, commanding the party to
circulate the Globe. We shall hereafter consi-
der and identify Mr.. Kendall and the Globe, and
show that his resignation is but part of his
system of deception, the virtue and efficacy of
which no one understands better than he In
the Globe of Saturday, he says of the circular
and address of the two Senators and three Van
Buren, members from Alabama.
eeThe Republican Senators, and the thee Republican
Representatives from Alabama distinguished they
have always been for the sagacous vigilance and pato
nc solcitude with which they looked to the interests Of
1heir State ;md the with which its prosperity
identified gave stronger proof of than in their
tate circular and address to their constituents. "
The circular thus recommended by Mr. Ken
dali, is given below. We republish it that the
people may see what efforts the Administration
are making to retain power, and to show the ne
eessity of counteracting efforts on our part. L
beg my readers to bear in mind that, before the
ink that penned the commendation of this circu-
lar, was dry, Kendall wrote an address, in which
he denounced the ranking of newspapers, by the
opposition, as a violatioR Of the lao.
CIRCULAR.
SIR: With view TO eouateract the unparalleled ex-
eons ofou opponents we respectfully suggest through
rsfx I'll
lowing of organizing the party and disseminating
among the people of every county iii the State political
information to the principles of the two parties and
the issues which involved in the approaching Presi
dental election.
LIST call of the Republican party in each county,
should be made at early day as general attendance
can be had TO nominate the strongest candidates for the
offices to be filled by the August election, where candi
dates are not yetin the field.
3D. committee of fifty to hundred of the strong
in every part of The county should be appointed
20 be called the Republican County Committee.
3d. This committee should select three or five of their
number, near the Court House central point,
be called the Central Republican Committee, whose
duty should be to fix the place and call meetings of the
party for the purpose of discussion select the ndVidu-
ais who to address the party, and propose, when
hey think proper public discussions, challenging their
opponents TO meet for that purpose They should also
collect funds from the members of the party for the pur
pose of disseminating political information in newSpa
Pers, books, or pamphlets, report to Republican
newspaper their proceedings at the time of the organi-
zaton, setting forth the of the commit
tees; correspond with similar committees in other coun-
ties, and with some one of the undersigned giving from
lime the results of their alton; should
least fortnight, have complete report from
every part of the county, through the County Commit
see, of the prospects of the Republican ticket.
4h. 1t should be the duty of the County Committee
to report from their respective neighborhoods TO the
Central Committee often required use their
lions procure full attendance the meetings of the
party; disseminate such information may be procured
by the County Committee, and report what sort OF in
formation most required in their neighborhoods In
Short they should all fair and honorable
procure the success of the Republican ticket and do
whatever properly be done TO aid the good
Republican principles throughout their country Among
other things, they should report the of such per-
in their neighbohood would read with interest
such political information as we might send to them, de
signaling their appropriate post offices, and through the
Central Committee, have full list of ali such persons
in the county forwarded to US as soon possible.
In suggesting the propriety of RAISING for the
dissemination of nformation it is part of our pur-
pose exempt ourselves from the duty have always
willingly assumed of circulating, in addition to public
documents printed by Congress- speeches. circulars and
pamphlets, published expense and calcI,lat
cd to sustain own views of public men and mea-
We have not been, nor do intend to be- re-
miss in assuming this expense But what are oar jndi-
vidual of circulating such information against
committee of our opponents, who, with immense funds
collected from party numbering in their ranks a large
majority OF the mercantile and professional classes and
backed by the banks, in contest waged against the pre-
Administration mainly to restore these institu
the use Of the public revenue and the credit which
the Government has heretofore given to their notes b,
receiving them in payment of the public dues? With al
II the ud we can hope 10 receive from Republican
friends, we are convinced that our circulation will ma
be comparable 10 that of our opponents. We however
= promise that ANY FUNDS you MAY SEND ON TO u.s. sha
) be employed in bringing into circulation such paper
pa,nphIefs. and speeches, calculated to adyanc
Repnbcan principles; and relying the justice of OF
cause wiIno doubt that with the small aid whic
may be given to our individual means, the people wi
be prepared with sufficient information to meet the gre
issue which is 10 settle the character of our Government
as of liberty and equality, of monopoly and pr
yiIege.
We also urge upon you to extend the circulation
Republican newspapers. The Republican press ha
adapted itself to the pecuniarY condition of the coun
and to arrest the misrepresentation Of our opponent
