pies, and no. be mongrels or traitors.
Reso'ucd, That, il the conduc: OF the
Wing Senators Of the United States, who
opposed the payment Of the fine imposed
,,pon Gen. Jackson at New Orleans, we
see exempliiled the worst spirit OF ancient
Federalism, which, while it wars upon
the pursst patriots Of the country, would
reward its traitors with the need Of aP.
probation.
Resolred, That the conduct Of the samo
Wing Senators. in proposing 10 pay to
the heirs Of the Traitor Hull, a balance
alleged to be due him Tor salary as Gov.
Of Michigan after his reasonable action
in the surrender Of Detroit, was mos,
emincn,lv disgrncelul, and merits tho
strongest condemnation Of tho American
People.
Reso'ced, That since the year ITS it
has been considered as the right OF the
States OF this Union to form and adopt
Constitutions for their Government-and
it was reserved for the Royal Charter
Government Of Rhode Island to make It
treason to establish a Constitution and to
claim the RICH, Of suffrage.
RESOLVED, That the contest in Rhode
Island between the suffrage party" and
their AIgerine opponents is one involving
the dearest rights aud privilege, of Free
men, and that we deeply sympathise with
the former. earnestly hoping that they
may speedily accomplish the noble oil.
jecs for which they are contending.
Resozred, lha, the conduct Of the Fed
eral Algerines in tie contest referred to
is bu. another illustration Of the rsck-
lessness, and desperation with which the
leaders Of the Federal party Of the United
States have balt|cd against free suffrage
wherever and whenever they have beet
in power.
Resol,.ed, That we regard the conduc,
Of dis honest John Davis, the daleated
candidate for Governoro Of Massachusetts,
in furnishing the .'A!gerincs'' Of Rhode
Island with arms, for the destruction Of
American citizens, as Infamous; but
which viii probably be regarded Ly his
whig brethren in other parts OF the
Union. as sufficient endorsement by thcEl
of his nomination in Massachusetts for
the office OF Vice Prcsidcn, Of the unileI
States.
Hcsclued, That tho bitter luminosity
evidently ranking i'll the bosom OF the
leading advocates OF the Federal, alias
Wing PARTY, in our country, Towards our
population OF foreign birth, is at war with
The genius Of our institutions and tho
principles ol our government, and that
we. as A"serican citizens, regard TIC ex-
hibition oil these feelings with shan.e aud
abhorrence.
ktsoircd That in the thousands Of for
eigners daily seeking an ASYLUM in our
country, we recognize men, who, like our
ioreia,hcrs OF the Revolution. are driven
by .yranuic and despotlc governments
from the homes Of their chlsdhotd; men
Ike ourselves, endowed with the Same
feelings and the same rights; that we re.
ioicc. ut their coming amony us, hliling
them us members oil the great Democratic
family.
Reso!red. That VIC have no feelings or
sympathies III common with the "Br,tlsh
party" in The United States, OF whose cx-
lstence and especially in the large cities
upon our sea board, no man ut ordinary
Intelligence, can for moment doubt; but
that we hold the members oil sucl, party
as unworthy Of the proud title OF "A
mercan citizens.
! Resoircl, That the conduct OF the
members OF that party, upon recent
occasion, wherein they refused TO drink,
or drank in silence, u toast TO s''rhe Pre-.
sident OF the United States" aud immedi.
ately afterwards made tho welkin ring
| when the name Of England's Queen was
mentioned, and tha, too when The repre-
sen,alives or that Queen, in the person Of
titled Lord was present at the festival,
richly entities them to the epithe!s OF
| Tories and Traitors TO their country.
Resolre1, That the Tariff bill, passed
by Congress ut its last session, is one TO
whose principles We arc decidedly op
posed-lhat we regard j, in no other light
than as establishing "a high protective
tariff" unequal and unjust in its opera
tons, and that it ought TO be greatly mo-
| ditied, If not repealed.
Resclrea, That The people Of this Ter
ritory have nothing good or beneficial 10
expect from the establishment oi wing
4 principles, OR the elevation 10 power OF
i w!,ig rulers, and that we would deeply
dcplore such an event Us one Of tho
greatest calamties that could Lclal
them.
i Reso'rea, That in Henry Clay, the
great idoloi the wing party. and IT'S ac-
]; knowedgcd leader, VIC recognize man
who has made war upon our best interests
and whose acts prove him to be at heart
an enemy TO Iowa.
4 Resohcd, that although we differ with
!. Danicl Webster upon every other great
political question, US widely as The poles
! are assunder, we concur will. him ia tho
j opinion that Bank OF the United States
/ is an .'obsole,e ilea," and that, with John
c. Spencer, his great CO iaborer in tho
! '.Whis'' cause in the contest Of 1910,
] the managers OF the Bank were ~ den
oi robbers whose chief business it has
been to swind!e the people Of The United
i States.
] Resolred, That III the results Of tho
late elections, by which Whiggery is de-
molishel in the three great States OF Ohio,
Pennsylvania, and New York; pretty cs-
I sental,y FUSED upn-in nineteen out OF the
twenty -threc other States, and dfivcn
