cans, friends to the administration of the general
government, recently held at Milit ry Hall
Resolved, That the present alarming crisis calls
for union Of all the real friends Of our beloved
country and Its glorious institutions which believe
require this time such union to insure wholesoa G
action of the true Republican prime piles bequeathed
TO US by the fathers OF great system Of self gov
eminent, and by esteemed as our choicest inher-
lance.
Resolved, That President Tyler has shown, by
HE of purity and PATRIOTISM that he belongs to the
political school of Jefferson, Madison, and Monroe,
under whose mild and Just administrations of the Gov
eminent, the people felt that ''the public will was
their guide, and the public good their aim

these principle is entitled to be sustaine by every
mau who desires ''the greatest happiness to the
greatest NUMBER
Resolved, That the present Congress ter two
sessions, occupying space Of nine months, have ac
compllshed nothing calculated to relieve the country
from its present unprecedented state of depression.
For the last months it would seem, that their chief,
if not only object, has been to oppose, by concert d

Government and to further the ambitious schemes of
certain aspiraDts to the Presidential chair
Resolved, That We opposed to the distribution
of the moneys arising from the sal of the public
lands, among the several 5 ate Governments I'M
wise, mex ledent, and unJus at the present time,
when the General Government has to borrow money
for own wants.
If this money be taken from our present impover-
ished Treasury the people II have to be taxed to
axe up the deficiency when for want of the Just
action OF Congress for relief the whole country la
boring under great embarrass nent aud distress
Res,lved hat we opposed to the establish
ment of great National Bank The misery and
widespread ruin produced by the late Bank of the
ned ates independent ol the question of its con-
stltutionali y afford sufficient why such an
institution should not be chartered. While there
fore we applaud President Tyler for his consistency
the vetocs of the bank bills passed at the
son upon his well known conviction of their uncon-
iutionaiijy rejoice that he is fully sustained by
! great majority of the people In the full belief Il
their nex ped ency.
Resoiped That we disclam all idea of starting any
new principles forming any new political party
We assemble with o her views than those OF Re
publcans of the old school, to stand by our country
and to give manly, steady, and firm support to a
