we are NOT willing to engage in any thing calculated
build up sustain the rotten corrupt and discordant
materials of Mr. Van Burens destructive, Federal,
and runous measures. Our country has already
suffered sufficiently, think to arouse the second
sober thought of the people and rescue from the hands
of political demagogues the bleeding Constitution Of
our once happy and prosperous country. We believe,
sir that corruption has taken the place of democracy
amongst the powers at Washington; and, sir it is our
deliberate opinion that of all the parts and particles
which make up the Grand Federal Gang of Executive
Tools at the Capital, you, yes you, Amos Kendall,
Ex-Post Master General, the vicst, the most
sunken and degraded Of them all We know and
have felt your anti-democratic principles, While
Post Master General, you removed from the post Of

You did il at the suggestion of few partisans in an
adjoining town. without consulting the people inte-
rested, And when asked by the people, your

And who did you appoint his successors Why, sir
man whose capablty far short Of our former
post master, as, in opinion you short of
honest man Is this the kind Of democracy you pro-
pose to sell to the People Of the United States il So
you seek support in the wrong quarter Sir, look
upon you as unsound- and politically corrupt
You have resigned station in which you might have
shown the people your honesty, had you possessed
any; but, instead Of honesty, you have shown your
utter disregard for the peoples will interest sought
only to sustain yourself and party matter by what
means You now stoop little lower, and consent to
do the dirty work of wicked heartless, and corrupt
Administration Your Address speaks what may be
expected to follow your political through life
You commence your Address by saying, =" A candi-
date for the Presidency is asking the SURFACES of
people who refuses to state the principles by which he
will be governed if elected. That, with his own con
sent, committee is intcrposed between him and his
| countrymen, to cut off direct communication and
keep his opinions from the public
Now, sir, such statement only proves the depth Of
degradation to which may bring himself Did
you not know that in 1885, while candidate for the
same Office, General Harrison gave his views of Con
stuton and policy at length, in two written commu-
nications which published throughout the length
and breadth of the land7 Did you not know that
since his nomination by the Harrisburg Convention
he has published to the country that his views remain
unchanged? You did You also knew that when
you published the above, you giving publicity TO
base SANDER, and known fasehood Do YOU sup
pose that people, knowing you to be what you are-a
mean, unpnnciped lying intriguing politician
believe your assertions, which conradics known facts
and historical truths Sir heart less corrupt than
yours could not have entertained idea so preposte
rous! You, Amos Kendall a pimping whining, hy-
pocrtcal political knave, lecturing the honest farmers
and mechanics, of the country, principles Of demo-
crazy you, who would cease to exist were you com
PEELED to breathe, for short hour the pure amos
phere of real democratic republicanism You, whose
lean, ank body and soul nourished and kept alive
only by the nauseous and loathsomc dregs of Loco
Focoism, sucked from that corrupt fountain Of Fede-
raj Arstocracy. Martin Van Buren, talk Of democracy.
Sir the idea revolving the common sense of the
people, and you may depend that the "broad seal OF
their contempt for you and your master is now making

upon you, SO plain, that nation or people under
Heaven, will afterwards mistake the creaturei Be
sIneared and bedanbcd you are, with corrupons
filth, and every thing which renders meanness con
temptibe still the mark Of the peoples disappobaon
will be written upon you in characters SO plain, "that
he who runs may read"
We would advise you to muster up. il possible. no
nesty enough to own yourself political knave, and
then retire" once to some dark and secret cor
ner of the world, and, if possible make treaty OF
peace with God Your country asks nothing more from
you; we say, then retire for you cannot find favor
amongst people who hates and despises you and
your principles. Go, We serving, heartless wreck
of nature, and seek more congenal cline. And, if
room cannot be found in your foul spirit to infuse

courage; and that yes that would add ustre
to the brightest manly principle you now possess.
