respect in which President Tyler and his manful
course are held by the German voters Of this coun-
try, was made at meeting Of tie German Demo-
cratic Association Of the city Of New York held on
the 10Th instant, when the following preamble and
resolutions were unanimously adopted
Whereas the time has arrived when II appears pro-
per and necessary once more to proclaim publicly
principles, and firm resolve faithfully to adj
here to them and,
Whereas, every Democrat has an indubitable and
unlimited right free and openly to declare his views
in favor Of any candidate, whose principles are
Democratic, without mourning the danger Of having
his Democratic principles drawn into doubt; there
fore be it
Resoiued That this association entirely approves Of
and sanctions the following principles to wit No
Bank Revenue Tariff; strict Interpretation Of
the Constitution, eXpounded by Jefferson no Pub
lie Debt; Personal Responsibility Of Public Officers;
General Suffrage, and General System Of Educa-
ton,
Resolred, That we will support for the next Pre-
sdency, the candidate nominated by a National Con-
yenton which is composed Of delegates chosen nv
districts, and none others
RESOLVED, That this association, without hesitation
cordially approves Of the noble action Of Jobn r.,
cr IN imposing ms veto upon the Bank bills pr, sent
ed for his appreciation.
Resolved That the Democracy Of this Union will
for ever remain indebted in gratitude TO President
John Tyler for having saved the country from tho
curse of a Bank which, at least for a onp series ~
years, would have checked again the PROSPERITY and
energy Of this great patton.

From the annapolis (yud.J Democratic Star


The recent elections show that the well being
Of the Democratic party depends upon unity of
purpose and action in its members INSTEAD of
a united purpose to defeat the election of Henry
Clay to the Presidency; our friends are now en-
gagged in a controversy about who ought and
who shall be The nominee Of the Democratic
National Convention. In order 10 perpetuate
the principles uron which the government should
be a Iministered we hav1 ever acknowledged
the necessity Of a well organized Democratic
party. That the only mode by which cdndi-
dates TO represent US in the government are to
be selected, is by a Convention composed Of
delegates coming immediately from the people.
To that Convention every member Of the party
who will pledge himself to carry out It's estab-
lished principles and will abide the delermina-
ton of the Convention, has a right to submit
his pretensiors and all candidates before the
people in any other way will be looked upon and
treated by us as political enemies. 10 our
principles only will we nail our flag. We have
too much respect for the intelligence and wisdom
Of the members who shall compose the next
Democratic National Convention, TO think for
moment they could select any man who would
msrepresent those principles. We beg our
friends, therefore, throughout the union, to unite
with US in striving TO maintain those PRINCIPLES
by defeating the election Of Henry Clay. We
condemn the spirit which seems now to move
some Of the Democratic journals in denouncing
either Cass, Van Buren,, Tyler, Calhoun, Blu
chauan, Johnson, or any body else who may be
talked Of as the nominee Of the Convention.
Whatever may be The result Of the Convention,
we are sure Justice will be done

OUR DEFEAT-ITs CAUSES.

We are beaten in Montgomery county and the
State. 1t is of use TO deny the fact to mourn or
to shed crocodile tears 1t simply remains to inquire
lchy defeated take lessons from the past
and learn how to meet the future.
We do not proposes in the present number of the
Miamlan TO undertake TO assign, at length and mi
nutely, alkihe which have contributed to our
defeat. We will, however, simply and briefly aude
to few, and in future numbers enlarge ard explain
more fully
1t is known to every man in the State, that more
than year since few dctators-a few selfish men,
demagogues and exclusives, declared their own infa
bility-expressedth their choicest up their standard
constituted their oion opinion and thereupon
in pursuance Of their ipSi DIRT, proceeded to de-
nounce, prescribe and condemn-lo tread out Of the
party and to consign Punishment and political
death, every democrat who was unwilling to play the
part of stool pigeon who refused to dance when
they piped, or mourn when they lamented These
facts have contributed To our defeat
Medary, Brough, and others, too, thought it good
policy () to denounce the Administration and curse
every man who would not curse it, or who would ac-
cept Office under it, who would dare call it honest
and stand between it and its Clay Bank revilers In
stead Of placing the responsibility of the non-fufl
ment Of Wing prom SEES upon Clay and Wing Con-
gress, they cooperated with the Clay Wings in pa-
cling upon the deserted and almost unprotected head
of the Administration. These facts, too have con
tribued TO defeat!
The course of the last legislature also contr bu-
ted to cur defeat We had, the fall previous, pro-
missed the people that we would, in the event Of a
continuation of power, give them " practical bank
ing law !" Instead Of which, two-thirds Of the ses-
sion was exhausted in quarrelling among ourselves
These facts, also, contributed to our defeat
The State paper and IFS willing echoes have ex-
hausted their ammunition, and spent their time and
money, and labor, during the year last past to man.
ufacture public opinion in favor Of Van Buren, for
the Presidency, and they have sought even in the
pursuit of this object TO read out Of the paIty every
man who dared TO express preference for either Of
the other Democratic candidates These facts have
contributed to our defeat!
We assign these reasons in no spirit Of unk ndness
We do so more in grief than IN anger No man can
seriously distrust our motives question our slncer
ty. We have fought during the campaign, through
the press and on the stump, with all our power and
all our strength We have done this from no other
consideration than our love Of Democratic
principles and the Democratic party. We shall con-
nue, as we have hitherto DONE TO maintain our in
dependence-to discuss princp les-topublish facts
to "speak the truth and shame the DEVIL and TO
charge home upon selfish men, upon demagogues and
exclusives
