A REPUBLICAN DEMoCRAT.
TO THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY PRO-
PER OF NORTHCAROLINA:
FELLOW. CITIZENS The time has ar.
rived, when it becomes US 10 take bold
and decided stand for our principles and our
party, or the cause Of true Democracy is
lost forever We have no sentinel on the
watch tower 10 warn US OF danger, and re
lying upon the friendly professions Of prs.
tended ally, we are surrendering all tina. is
near and dear TO our cause. What | nov
say, is not the offspring of chagrin or dis.
appointment,-it is not the has,y conclu
sion of jealous or suspicious mind-bui
the conclusion, TO which every one will
cone who looks into the matter must be
! the same, viz that we are hood. winked
and betrayed by false friends and pretend
ed allies, whose aim is, that everything
shall tenure to their benefit" at the hazard
Of the entire destruction of the Democratic
party properly which, mean the De.
mocrais who are 10 favor Of Mr.. Van Blu.
rem, and, Of course, opposed 10 John c.
Calhoun and Notification.
Calhounism and Van Burenism are anti.
podts; and the favor of the former is Ger
/ tain destruction to the cause and the party
/ it espouses. Witness lis union with the
Wings IN 1886 against us. We ,riunphed
VIGOROUSLY over the united strength of
Whiggery and Cslhounism, in the contest
that raised Mr.. Van Buren, 10 the Presi
dency. That party, ever anxious to he on
the strong side that something may tenure
TO their benefit, joined the Van Buren, AID
mnistration. Benton denounced the nIli
ance, warned the Democrats Of the Pes.ilcn-
tiaI contact. and foretold that union with
them vas destructive 10 Democracy. And
true as prophecy, in the conies, Of $40,
! Whiggery achieved mos, signal triumph
over the united forces OF Calhoauism and
Van Burenism, and that too, By quotations
from Calhoun himself, tho had pronounced
Us set Of Rogues and Royals,s, no were
only held together BY the cohesive bond o.
plunder-and by quotations from speeches
aud Resolutions Of renegade Wings and
Nulliiiers, such as Charles Fisher, Burtod
Crdige, and others who, unfortunately fol
) our cause, bad joined US, and the latter O
} whom, still more unfortunately, had himsel
T palmed of upon US as our Elector
e The motto Of this Calhoun party is
!, "RULE OR Ruin" They have endeavor
s ed TO get into power, even at the hazard o
. dissolution Of the Union, and nothing bu
$ the Roman firmness and determined reso
s luton Of Andrew Jackson, aided, counte
II nanced and sustained by the approving in
! huence Of Martin Van Buren,, could hav
e prevented the dreadful calamity Of Civ
! War and consequent dsunon.
IS This same party then, being thus deieal
= ed, came out openly and attached them
j. selves 10 US, as soon as they saw the Al
, ministra,ion securely in our hands, an
q thereby, without doubt, caused our deles
j. in lS40. The same party are now deteI
: mined TO set up for themselves, and to eIbo

e Buren's claims 10 the Presidency, and
J. efecting their nefarious design, TO use
