Appendix TO the Address OF the
Central Committee.


Gen. Smyth, nor the extracts from the Journal Of
the Convention, which proves the re-eligibility Of
the President ~ have been one of the compromises
Of the constitution by the federal party.
These, and many other things, which we had fiat.
tered ourselves we would have had room for, mus,
90 to the public through the ordinary medium Of the
newspapers, for reasons alluded to towards the
conclusion of our address. The following are ex-
tracts from the Messages Of President Jackson, Of
1929 aud 1890.
From his first Message.
In connection with such an amendment, IL would
secn advisable TO limit the service of the Chief
Magistrate TO single term, Of either four or six
years. I" There are perhaps
few mon who can for any great length of time en-
Joy Office and power, without being more less
under the influence of feelings uafavorable TO the
faithful discharge Of their public duties. Their in
fegrity may be proof against improper considera-
tons Immediately addressed TO themselves but
they arc apt 10 mcguire habit of looking with in
difference upon the public interests aud Of toerat
ing conduct from which an unpractiscd man would
revolt.
From his second Message.
have heretofore recommended amendments of
tic Federal Constitution giving the election of
President and Vice President to the People, and
limiting the service of the former TO single term
SO important do i consider these changes in our
fundamental law, that cauhOt, in accordance with
fny sense of duty, omit to press them upon the con-
sIderatfor Of new Congress.
lB. We had intended to copy the yeas and nays
Gen. Gordon's Bill.-but nrust content ourselves
with the extract from the Address of Mr.. Wise
The facts arc precisely lie has stated thcm--to
which may be added that, On that occasion, the
few Wings who voted with the nullifiers had the
additional excuse that the alternative then waS be-
tween Gordons bill! and the pet bdnh system. The
Wings then rere, and get are, opposed to that Sys-
TEN.
iC.l 1t is Mr.. Van Burcn's sworn duty to recon-
mend 10 Congress the adoption of such measures
as he may consider for the good of the country.
Neither the Cumberland Rond nor the Salt Tax
ing even mentioned in his Message, OF included in
the estimates of any of his Secretaries, he must be
regarded opposed to both. Moreover--a large
minority Of his party in the H. R. voted against the
Cumberland Road during the present session.
f. We must make room for these votes, and
hope they loay he every where rend as evidence Of
The sincerity Of the present Gnti-bank party.
Vote on The passage ef The Bank Bin, during he
session of 1894 ..

III We have only room for the following -
from the President and the Globe. They can be
read, however, in connection with Mr.. Wiscs OK
tracts from the Journal If any person wishes L
satisfy himself that the bill of Gordon in 30, wa:
tho same in SUBSTANCE the one now pending be
fore Congress, lot them read tho speech of Col Ben
ton. during the present session.
Er'yart from the paper read Ia NE Cabinet 6y Gene
rat Jt;tso1 on rsm0riag t3s DepoaiteS, Septcm
TER j., 1883.
IN Kidding the country Of all irresponsible power
which has attempted to control the government
care must be taken not to unite the Same power
with the Executive branch. To give a President
control over the currency and power over indivd
uals now possessed by the Bank of the United
States, even with the material difference that he is
responsible to the people, would be Objectionable
and dangerous as 10 leave it as it Is"
He might have added--'an hundred floa NOR
So"
FROM The Washington Globe, Norember 20, 1884
1.-The proposition is DISORGANIZING anC
EVOLUTIONARY, subvcrsive of the funda
mental principles Of our Government, and of it,
entire practice, from 1850 'nwn to this day"
