DEMOCRATIC MEETING IN GovANs-
TOWN

We invite attention TO the proceedings of a
meeting Of the Democracy Of Govanstown, Md,
in io-dsy's paper. The friends Of President
Tyler compose "lbe guard that never surren-
ders." There are no faint and craven hearts
among his supporters. The contempt which
they feel for the despotic Jacobins, they EXPIRE IS
with manly boldness and the dictstion they
despisc, they do not hesitate to resist A era
ven submission 10 selfconstituted tyrants, forms
no part OF their intentions.
We trust that the friends of the President will
band together, and form organizations in every
section Of the country. "For better, for worse, -
let them stand together, and be true to each
other. Submission is Observation-Disclosures
aud independence alone can insure success, and
secure justice for their much calumnaled
leader.
