Do not the Democrats of Louisa something To the

principles-aidiny in inspiring just confidence in the
relief this great measure will ultimately extend to all
the great interests Of The countrythcy have al
most moneyed millennium dawn upon the country at
once appeal to them, then, patriots with hearts
overlooking with sympathy for the distress of the
try, to unite with producing this great, this glo
rious result and the thanks of millions of grateful free
men will give them real happiness more genuine
consolation and more true and durable applause than
all the parly trumphs that could adorn the proudest
political conGuerors. Let them initiate the noble cx-
ample of the distinguished South Caronian in laying
down in support Of this bill his personal and political
preudiccs offering upon the altar of his counrys
good; and for them, aso the swelling heart Of mighty
nation will throb with love and gratitude. The mea-
itself will be justly viewed another declaration
Of American independence, and the day of its passage
be celebrated in all time TO great and glori.
