eerslei The inheritors Of ancient Federalism
disciples Of the parent Of the alien and sedtios laws
the despots OF the reign Of terror-the descendant
Of the reasonable convocstion at Hsrtford-who
no injustice IN the impressment VI our sesmen-an
who invited the ships of the enemy into our ports b.
the display Of blue lights the coast Of New Eng
land, during the last with Great Britain Thos
who hug the deusve idea that fabric Of free 20
vernment Is even now lettering that man Is inc pa
BILE Of seIf-control and that the day is not listsn
when monarchy will rear lis throne upon our soil
These the enemies Of John Tyler! And shall
we lend ourselves to their purposes? Shall we con
tribute to their triumph, and swell the pageant Of III.
yictorl Let US not forget that il will be not a tr
umph over MI. Tyler only, but over the Democrat,
Of the Union, over those principles, by the vndica
ton Of which he aroused the hatred aud provoked
the vengeance Of his enemies
But il is not alone by the more than Roman virtue
he displayed IN the prostrstion Of the Bank that Pre-
sident Tyler IS commended TO the affection and conf
dence OF The Democratic party. He has saved the
People from the restoration Of that twin me ASSURE al
political economy, high protective tarf.--a premi.
um upon the schemes Of the ailuent manufacturer a,
the expense OF his competitor, Whose means are re-
stricted-a tribute to department of trade naid
from the abois Of all other branches of industry lie
has curtaied the expenses Of the Government intro
duced retrenchment into every department of IL and
corrected the muitiform abuse complained of by the
People. We no longer hear OF deiaulting public off
GERS but in the place Of loose system he has esta
blished and enforced the strict accountability
Ii is no idle eulogy 10 affirm that never since the
adoption of the Federal Constitution, has the Co
veInment in all its various branches been more ably
or faithfully administered.
He has rescued the public domain from the
hands Of Spectators and laid il up as a fund by
which the People will, hereafter, be spared from
taxation. lie has terminated the Florida war, and
by paterna and concilialory policy, protected
frontiers from the sanguinary incurslons of the Abo-
rhymes, aud saved millions thereby TO the Golfers Of
the Union. He has concluded highly honorable
treaty with Mexico, and wrung from Great Britain
conditions which the combined powers Of Europe
failed to extort--a treaty which is alike the admira-
ton and envy of the civilized world.
Such is John Iyler-a pupil of Jefferson, son Of
Of the old Republican Governors Of Virginia, as
amiable and hosptable in private life he is stern
and unyedng in his devotion TO his public duties ard
the public faith of his boyhood or plain, simple
frank and unostentatous manners, he has kind and
benevolent heart is fond parent and an attached and
conhding friend Few approach him who do not
feel the force OF the avermen that Democracy right
ly understood is practical Christianity. His person
is an indictment Of the spirit Of our Institutions as
his private lille has been pattern Of Republican sim
plicty and virtue. We ask for him JUSTICE at the
hands Of Democratic fellow citizens and in max
ing this appeal, we have the proud consciousness of
claiming II from those who have never refused it to
the prosecuted patriot or faithful public servant
committee, consisting Of Messrs. James MEGA
Woymcr
Col. J. D. Warner were instructed to peparc resolu-
lions expressive Of the sen e and views of the Con-
yenlion, and during their absence, Mr.. Thomas Con-
neil, in speech Astounding with sterling facts and
much raciness, drew beautiful picture of our excel
lent Chief Magistrate which was received with I'M
mense applause. Col. John =. Warner presented the
following preamble and re, olutione, which were
adopted with great unanimity:
