TT Nhe object of this paper is expressed by
Il its name.-It is intended to advocate the
claims of WILLIAM HENRY HARRISON

sent in the administration party Of the United
States, were the original supporters Of the.
old blue light federal party at the time Of the
Hartford Convention; that the goveEnment
asnow conducted mucted must ultimately
become a consolidated monarchy; that our
tencts, equally removed from aristocracy, on
the one and mo5ocracy on the other,
are those alone upon which republican
government can be 50 conducted as to ad-
vance the Welfars and happiness Of It's own
citizens, and elevate its character for honor
and integrity with foreigners In short, that

A pRAIsEwoRTHY MOVEMENT

The Harrison and Tyler Association of Dock
Ward, Philadelphia, adopted the following reso-
luton at meeting on Thursday evening, for
the purpose Of devising some method Of cele-
brating the election of General Harrison. Re-
ferring to these proceedings, the Philadelphia
Sentinel truly remarks that "such mode of
celebrating their victory, would carry blessings
to the bosom of many a helpless family, and
would not pluck single leaf from the brow of
their favourite chief"
Whereas, some public demonstration of gra-
titude from the friends Of Harrison and Tyler
may be expected, in consequence Of the success
full termination of the Presidential contest !:
therefore,
Resolred, That this Association recommend
that meetings be called in the different Wards
of the city and county, to take into considera-
ton the propriety of calling town meeting to
effect arrangements for making collections, at an
early day, in their respective districts, to be APP
piled to the purchase of fuel and other necessa-
ries of life, for the benefit Of the suffering poor,
during the ensuing winter.
RESOLVED, That these proceedings, signed by
the President and Secretary, be published.
