dent Of the United States yctwe al deep sociiude
for the result Of said election believing as we do that
Il must greatly affect the prosperity Of this naon ana
That the issue, IS between the triumph Of democratic

IS cal o., in terms The most cGur,e1u and respect
iII Tor an ayo%al OF his opinions; tho strange and
bArinS contradiction between th~r present practice
hni ior'uor professions in placing before the People
