case Of extravagant appropriations BY Congress
He should say, al have maiureiy rejected o"

Congress has placed a; my disposal nearly double
this amount. Does the public good require ths'

But MIR. Van Buren, has not only disregarded inc
positive injunclons Of the Constitution, by not re-
turning bills Of appropriation nearly double what
he himself has said the public service reasonably re-
CURED no has thus stricken out the qualified mega
tive Of the Constitution this allmportant subject
and by expending money in the Treasury beyond

According to Mr.. Van Buren,, the Veto power is

ought to be stricken out modified. According
TO Mr. c., the Veto power is still 10 the Constitution;
according to Mr.. Van Buren,, il is not.

the coming contest the difference Is greatly in favor
of MIR. Clay. And what is worthy Of the gravest
consideration with Mr.. Van Buren,, as opposed TO
Mr. Clay, this question of the qualified negative can
not be one Of the issues in the coming canvass
Fellow citizens, ponder well this. Your Consti-

TO see this power stricken out by amendment, much
less by dangerous construction as that advocated
