TIE CONSERVATIVES.

Honor and glory to the unchanged and inter
terrified democracy Of the land! The Conser-
vativcs of the Empire State have covered them
selves with glory and the whole country with
gIadness, filling the air with the songs OF joy
and triumph! They left their party in the
flush of its power ana the pride Of its strength,
and raised their arms and voices against Exc
cutve usurpation, diclation, oppression, and
tyranny. Armed with conscious lectltude and
truth, they defed the vengeance Of an Executive
who tolerated no dissent: scorned the powero OF
party heretofore omnipotcnt to destroy, and VITA
an eye fixed on the welfare Of their country and
the preservation Of her free institutions, they
dashed into the contest with an energy that
never faitered, with confidence that never
wavered, and with uncompromising resolu-
ton to bring down Executive misrule and re-
store the supremacy Of the Peoples will, or pc
IRISH in the attempt. Their eaily efforts ia the
great cause Of popular liberty and the restora-
ton of the government were locked upon with
jealousy and doubt by their Wing allies; and,
fot a time, the unchanged democrats stood be-
tween the fires ci two great parties, common
object for The shots Ct each. They maintained
Ibis zosition undismaycd, directing their powers
with an undertaking and certain aim upon an
apostate Federal, Chem State Administration,
regardless alike of open ennity and secret hos
tility Their stand was taken with more bold
ness, in position more perilous, and has oeeh
maintained with more firmness, Throughout a
longer period of time, than in any instance OF the
kind on record; and their generous and noble
daring has been crowned yith a most complete
and triumphant victory. Well have the Con-
seryatives merited the often repeated COMPARE
son of their stand and exertions, with the gall
liant defence made by the SPARTANs ut the pass
of Fhermophylae! They have contended against
an army as numerous as that OF Aerxes; aEd
with plumbers as disproportioned, they have
successfully resisted, and finally routed the
Federal Loco Foco barbarian force.
Mr.. Van Buren, was indebted to the cOnserva-
tives Of this State for hi lection 10 the Presi-
Dental Chair; and when lie abandoned his pro-
fessed principles ,bstrayed cif confidence, abused
| his trust, and disgra"Cb ..ie government OF the
country, THEY DIsGRIl--2 I'M.
1t is their most gratifying reflection, and theil
| proudest boast, that Mr.. Van Buren and his
| Federal Loco Foco party, may trace his ans
their complete overthrow directly and unequivo
cally to the work of conservative hands.
