aud IN 80 doing they shall have our humble, thong
sincere thanks and in order that We may know
scIos. we should be grateful. We respectfully reques
one number of each paper IN which u SHAH gain ad
mitiauee, TO be forwarded 10 the "Od School lie
publican" Columbus, Ohio.
The committee then further reported the follow
ing resolutions, which on motion, were unanmousl,
adopted
Resolred, That in the administration Of John Iy'
Ter we recognise not only the point OF rally FOL
the democratic party from Us late strong symptoms
decay but also series Of effective efforts M reauoi
to many Of the most difficult and oppressive questions
that have hung over our eountry--among wblch the
adjustment upon equally satisfactory principles, OF
the long pending contest with England on the North
eastern boundary questionable termination OF thai
long continued, expensive, and disgracelul war WITH
the Florida lndians--and the re-estabshing oil The
credit of our Government, are most conspicuous
aud that the President deserves for such services and
should receive not only the heartfelt thanks OF the
entire democratic party, but the appreciation OF The
whole people, by the unanimous shout oil wen done
thou good and faithful servantln
Rsoired That John Tyler is entitled to fair, OPEN
candid, and honorable consideration, at the hands oil
the Democratic Repul can party, IN reference 10
nomination for their next Presidential candidate
Resoired, That we hereby name John Tyler, OF
Virginia as our first choice for Presidential candi-
date for the election in 1874.
Resoired That we have the highest confidence in
Governor Of Ohio; and that we esteem him not less
for his unbemished integrity, genllemanly qualities,
and social virtues than for his Efforts to subdue that
spirit of intolerance which cbaracterizes some other
heretofore prominent men of our day
Res0iod, That in declaring ourselves IN favor OF
carrying out the Democratic Republican construction
Of the Constitution, we mean
ON ssiion TO a Tariff exclusively for the projection
and ben III Of small class Of the people,
In Jacor Of Tariff for rerenue, with incidental dis
eliminating provisions IN favor OF our own manufac-
lures and products;
Opposition to an United States Bank
Ia Japor Of adopting such laws for the regulation
aud fiscal operation Of the Treasury as will enable
the Government to collect and dsburse its
with safety and facility
Opposition TO an amendment of the Constitution so
as to abolish the power Of the President to withhold
his assent 10 laws passed by less than two thirds Of
Congress
Opposition to the Withdrawal of the land funds from
the Treasury Of the United States;
Opposition to the proposition Of the General Gov
eminent TO assume or to guarantee The payment of the
debts of the several States;
Opposition to National Debt except for unavoida
bic aud strictly legitimate national purposes;
In faror OF strict economy IN every department Of
the Government
In fapor of liberal, yet not lavish, appropriations
for the gradual increase Of Navy and for placing
our country IN condition of safety and defence
ReSoired, That Notwithstanding our determination
to treat with respect all the Republican candidates in
The field, and notice the action Of their friends with
good felow-democratic feeling, either because we
see they merit II, or from forbearance, yet we
shall treat with that contempt, which it merits, the
late interrogatory Of the Washington Globe respect
ing the disposition Of Mr.. Tyler and his friends to
submit to the nominations made by the Natioi al
Convention" We declare such an interrogaory
emanating from such source at such period con-
enpiibe from the fact that the editors Of the Globe
have constantly and firmly denied the validity Of Mr.
Tyler's claims TO the title Of Republican-constant-
ly opposed the admission Of his name into the Ma
tonal Convention, and as constantly and unrelenng
y abused, belied, misrepresented, yiiifed and de-
nounced him and his administration-from the fact
that those editors themselves, not having yet pledge
themselves to abide the result of the Convention TO
which they reier-and from the fact that they have
right TO PROFOUND the question 10 Mr. Tyler or his
friends, until they cease 10 belle him and learn TO do
him justice. When they shall thus do-thu learn
they will cease to feel the necessity of asking the
question
Resoired, That the question, forthwith 10 extend
Government authority over that portion Of the Uni
ted States Territory west of the Rocky Mountains
Is one oil such deep interest to the whole Union as
to demand the close and deliberate attention and re-
Election OF Congress and should be carried into effect
as speedily may be consistent with uncomfortable
obstdcles-if there be such.
Resotrtd, That the, proposition to annex Texas to
The United States-or, some have it, to recorer
our lost possession of that pant Of the Louisiana pur-
rorabe aspects. that i is worify Of being fny and
duly examined and inyestigated-and investigated,
too, and Judged in that spirit of concession and com
promise which forms the nucleus Of our National
Union.
Resoirtd, That, having thus announced our choice
OF candidates for the next Presidential term and ha
wing declared our continued determiu tion TO support
none but Democratic principles, and having attempt-
ed 10 show cur consistency TO those prime in The
ohoiee OF our man, we now put the question to the
candor Of al-whether for every one reason urged
10y the friend, of other candidates, why Democrats
could not nominate John Tyler We have not clearly
sustained score of reasons why they ca nominate
him and whether, for every point Of view which
they advance, why he should NOT be SO nominated
we have not demonstrated double the number why
he should be nominated
Resolved hat should any portion of the Democra-
tic ranks far forget their duty TO the success of
principles as TO carry their prescription of men so far
As to deny TO other portions of the same ranks the |
rights aud privileges Of party usages-of which We
regret to see 50 many indications-we can only sav
'n htr heads be the consequences -
RfSoirtd, That We feel the greater emo,;ops Of
gratitude Tor the prolonged DAYS Of J.cvsoN since
