The Democratic Republicans of PAMELA, Jeffer-
son CO., MY, at meeting held the 18th inst. to APP
prove the nomination of Bouck and Dickinson, unan-
imously adopted the following resolutions
Resolred, That the true position and principles of
the two great political parties as clearly defined,
and the dividing line distinctly Marked as they
were under the administrations of John Adams ami
Thomas Jefferson. The present Wing party now
avow their determination to remodel the Constitution
of the United States SO as to deprive the Executive
of the negative, commonly called the veto power.
Resolved, That we hold the Constitution of the
United States to be sacred as holy writ; we be-
lieve il embraces all the powers intended to be sur
rendered by the States and is written in plain Eng.
lsh y to those who seek to add, diminish, mis-
construe, we say " hands off,"
Resolved, That nations gratitude is justly due to
John Tyler, for manuly interposing the negative to
the bills incorporating the United States bank, the
fiscal corporation and the big and little tariff, with
the distribution clause. We look upon him as a true
Democrat of the Virginia school.

public speech.
