ers,
In regard to the first, we are con-
strained to say, that the President. by |
the course he has adopted in respect to
the application Of the veto power to the
successive bank charters, each ofwhich
there was just reason to believe would
meet his appreciation; by his with
drawal of confidence from his real |
friends in Congress and from the mem
bers OF his Cabinet; by his bestow
alof 1t upon others notwithstanding their
notorious opposition TO leading measures
OF his administration, has Voluntarily
separated himself from those by whose
exertlons and suffrages he was elevated
to the office through which he reached his
present exalted station. The existence
OF this unnatural relation is as extraor-
binary as the annunciation of it is pain
tul and notifying. What are the con-
sequences and duties which grow out Of
it?
The tirstconsequence is,that those who
brought The President into power can be
no longer,in any mann er or degree, just
ly held responsible or blamed for the ad-
mlnstration of the Executive bra nch of
the Government; and that the President
and his advisers should be exclusively
hereafter deemed accountable. But, as
by the joint acts of Providence and the
: People he is constitulionally invested
with the powers of Chief Magistrate,
whilst he remains in office he should be
, treated with perfect respect by ALL And
1t will still be the duty of the Wings, in
and out Of Congress, to give to his Off
t cial acts and measures fair and full con-
!. Slderatlon, approving them and co-ope-
rating in their support where they can,
and differing from and opposing any
of them only from a high sense of public
duty.
The more important question remains
: to be touched. What ought to be the flu
ture line of conduct of the Wing party in
: the extraordinary emergency which now
/, exists.
! They came into power TO accomplish
great and patriotic objects. By the zeal
oud perseverance vi luG N"JOii'iOS -
r Congress, some of the most important oil
t those objects have been carried at the ex-
ira session. Others yet remain to be effec-
ted. The conduct of the President Eas
occasioned bitter modification and deep
. regret. Shall the party, therefore, yield
ing to sentiments of despair, abandon its
? duty, and submit to defeat and disgrace
: Far from suffering such dishonorable con
: sequences the very disappointment which
it has unfortunately experienced should
2 serve only to redouble it's exertions, and
= to inspire it with fresh courage to perse-
: we're with spirit unsubdued and a reso-
o luton mistaken, until the pros perity OF
: the country is fully re-established, and
e its liberties firmly secured against all
It danger from the abuses, encroachment,
n or usurpations of the Executive depart
