LOCOFOCO PRINCIPLES.

The Nashville Union, a Locoloco paper,
understood to te Gen. Jackson's especial
organ, attempting to settle precisely the
principles Of lis party, says: "Ue are
FOR mhM the Whigs are AGAINST" This
certainly gives them 4 sufficiently broad
platform for their operations. The Wings
are against great many things, such as IA
sub-Tleasury scheme, British free uadc,
and Executive tyranny: of course the
LocoIocos are IN faror of all these. The
ligs are against a sy stem which allows
Executive officers to steal the public
money-lhey are az inst the sacrifice OF
American interests al the demand OF British
manulac nrers; against the Aooding of our
cogHtry wild. the prodwclimss of foreign
labor, and th~s running our own citizens;
against corrupIlon in every department ol
the Government; against tyrannlcal rX-
erclse on the Executive veto; against pub
lie robbery aud violation of national
faith; against all schemes for personal az
grandlZ.ment, or local traauphs AT the tx
pcnse of the integrity cd the Union and
the safety and lapp,nrss u the American
people. l he l.ncoitcos, therefore. ac.
c"rding to IKE Union, are FOR all these
things! The Union is perfectly Correct

CLAY and tho Wigs is The only motive

LOCOFOCO PRINCIPLES EXEMP-

We hear much from those who would
transfer the people Of the country to Polk
aud Dallas, about their love ofprmciples,
Let us see how these very :drmocratic' y
principles look in juxtaposi,ion.
Nr. Van Buren, received large MAORI
ty of all the votes given in Convention on
the first ballot, yet Martin Van Buren, was
thrown aside to give place to another.
The Convention was held, prolessedIy
to embody und carry out the wishes of the
party. The delegates were instructed in
favor of Van Buren,, Johnson, Cass, Stew
art, and Calhoun, but none of them in
favor of Polk; yet Polk was nominated
over the heads of all the Others!
Mr.. Van Buren, wrote a letter against
annexation. The party presses of the
North and West lauded it as just the thing
as wholly, entirely, and purely Dcmocrl-
Mr.. Polk wrote two letters in faror of
immediate and unconditional annexation,
and the party presses pronounce his the
true democratic position, and Mr. Polk
the very pink of Democrats!
The Convention nominated Polk aud
Dallas for President and Wee President
While one was conlending and voting in
one branch of Congress against United
States Bank, against a Protective Tariff,
and against Distribution; the other, in the
other branch, was advocating Bank, a
Protective Tariff and Distribution. This
illustrates Locofoco "Democracy"
The Baltimore Convention adopted "a
resolution declaring Bank unconslilu-
Iional and ineXpedient
Mr.. Dallas, as late as July, 1886, con-
tended that Bank was both constitution
al and expedient.
The Convention adopted resolution
declaring the assumption of State debts
unconstitutional.
The same Convention resolved in favor
Of the annexation of Texas. thus sanction
ing the assumption of the ten Tor tweniy)
millions debt of that country!

FREE TRADE.

10 the advocates OF free trade we COM
mend the following extract from speech
lately delivered in The house of Lords by
The Duke Of Wellington. He said:
"lhat when free trade was talk ed of
as existing in England, it was absurdily.
There is not and there can be no such
TANG as Tree trade in this county; we pro-
cetd on the system of protecting our oun
manufactures and orr Orn prodnce-the
prodncc Of our Iajor and our soil-of
projecting M'mfor eaportaiion and pro-
'"citng mem for homc consumption; and
on this universal system of protection i:
is absurd To talk Of FREE TRADE"
This Is precisely the kind ofpolicy that
Is required Ia be adopted and adhered to
by the United States, If we would be truly

the policy which the people Of the coun-
