Think Of the Cooas spending tens OF thousands oil
dollars in boisterous debates on retrenehment and
economy; and, after displaying SO much learning
and research, and mock-wise legislation, they have
gorously triumphed in robblng the poor gardener,
because he is Democrat, of thirty-one dollars
worth OF hay. "Think OF that Master Brooks -
Instead Of two dollars day and roast bee Tor all
the mechanics in the nation the Coons nave turheu

mechanics including their families, nov working In

They took charge of the Treasury with abundant
gold and silver IN Golfers TO pay all demands

gress, some time TO squander il. The most uncandid
and reckless of the COons admit that Mr.. Woodbury.

our condition now' national debt of thirty-two
billions of dollars !. and not dollar in hand, and
no credit in any of the world. Tens OF thou
sands Of our own citizens suffering from extreme
want, who cannot get the small pittance which The
Government owes them for their labor and toll IN her
service.
President Tyler's vetoes prevented an additional
debt Of ficsnfy tico millions, by killing oil the Bank
bills which like the old-fashioned Nick Bddie Bank,
would have ended by robbing the widows and or
phans of a hundred millions more Besides, they
have voted away millions in favor Of claims as bad
Coon Hendersons for his fallen scrubby pine trees

most to throw away the proceeds of the sales OF the
public lands. and 10 the three hundred mil
lions Of dollars Of the debts of the States. Failing IN
their daring attempt TO blight forever the prosT ecis
and hopes of our fair Republic, they boldly and ini-
pudently avowed their determination 10 adjourn, and
leave the Government piece Of broken machinery
without power TO collect taxes raise re- enue.-
Can such party long prevail Ours is a represen
tativc Democracy, and only be represented N
Democratic principles. The Federallsts and Coons
have always thrown the machine into disorder, and
service.
They have passed tariff, moia in Sc, aala prohibi-
tia, which taxes the people sixty millions Of dollars
annually, and only twelve millions Of which is de-
signed TO go into the treasury. They have moved
heaven and earth TO create a national debt of four
hundred millions OF dollars, when are not able TO
pay our suffering citizens for debts long since
due them, and when we are not able to borrow dol

their feelings cold ice in contemplating the
miseries produced by their wicked and inquitous
legislation al home
At the Clay extra session of Congress, they passed
law by which the widows and orphans of those who
killed in the naval service Of the United States
yes, the widows and orphans of those who fought
the battles Of their country, and now "sleep In The
deep'-are TO be deprived in future, of this small
piltance Of their countrys justice. The very same
old Co9ns had conscientious scruples about vast
ing the peoples money when they passed bill, at
the last session of Congress, for the benefit of the
heirs Of the traitor Hull The same patriotic and
economical CoonS voted away $780, 600 to pay the
Massachusetts militia for refusing TO fight the battles
Of their country during the la war And yet they
refused to refund TO Gen. Jackson, for preserving
city from page, and its inhabitants from the vio-
lence OF licentious soldiery fine of 81 900 in-
quitously imposed on him by corrupt judge. Ii Is
strengthening strange-that the Coons have not
as yet, done anything for the heirs of Benedict Ar
mold, Their instincts ali in favor OF the enemies
of their country.
In l64l when the Coons came into power, all was
arrogance ard intolerance. The days of the black
cockade were halcyon times, compared with the
opening of the extra session Clay and his Chareys
were drunk and mad with log-cabin Qualifications,
and coon-skin hosannahs. Abolition was already
lighting the torch to spring mine of desolaon upon
the South And the Southern Clay Wings wert add
ing fuel to the crater of that burning Etna, which
threatened to burst forth and spread its desolating
lava the fair and lovely South. All abo-
li,ion nominations were confirmed, with few excep-
tons, by Southern Clay Wings Granger, the re-
owned aboltionis and as poor thing as crawls on
the EARTH received the vote of every Southern Clay
Wing. This creature with black streak down his
back, and soul of ice, admitted in Congress Hall,
in debate, that he gored in his infamy, and pre-
pairing to wreak the full measure of his vengeance
and hatred against the institutions Of the South, when
he himself kicked out of office. He admitted
that he had hurled Democrats from office, simply be-
cause they ID mocrats | would say more on
this subject but as the injured and nsued Demo-
Gratis after this declaration, have remained SILENT

scum of the Democratic party had fallen under his
guAoiine. 1t was with difficulty could keep from
Gaming him myself Ii vexed me to see such ,rhie

my golden rule-that he who will not fight for him
self, is not worth fighting for.

is Cay's right bower: he would use the devil him
self for trump to win his game. Slade, Fessen-
den, Giddngs, and all the filthy corps of abolition
lists, were his coadjutors and aids-de-camp. Harry
Of the Vest stood 9" head and shoulders" above
all others in this universal mass of political cor
ruptions. Heaven itself seemed offended at the
disgusting spectacle of an enlightened nation first
bcsotted, and then made to administer to its own
degradation; and Heaven had, it were, by an es-
pecia act OF Providence, put its seal such depra
witty, by robblng our opponents, at one blow, Of the
fruits of all their iniquitous exertions and making
their own instruments minister to one of the
proudest Democratic triumphs on record in the his
tory Of our republic"
The Wings hid fought and bullied themselves
into power Every reckless and unprincpled adj
venturer-every blood-sained desperado-every idle
and impudent and fearless vagabond or lofer-in
short, the very quntessence of all the depravities
of the human family, had fought under the Coon
skin banner. The Democ ats had been driven from
the polls. Frauds and outrages had been committed
