LOCOFOCO PRINCIPLES EXEM-
PLIFIED.

We hear much from those who would
transfer the people ofthe country to Polk
and DALLAS, about their love Of principle.
Let US see how these very "democratic'
principles look in juxta.posilion.
Mr.. Van Buren, received a large MAORI
ty Of all the votes given in the convention
on the first ballot, yet Martin Van Buren,
was thrown aside 10 give place to another.
The convention was held, professedIy, 10
embody and 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
o Polk; yet Polk was nominated over the
heads of all the others.
Mr.. Van Buren, wrote a letter against an
nexation. The party presses of the north
and west lauded it as just the thing, as Who'll
ly, entirely, and purely democratic.
Mr.. Polk wrote Two letters IN faror of
immediate and unconditional annexation.
end the party presses pronounce his the
true democratic position and Mr.. Polk the
very pink Of democrats.
The convention nominated Polk and
Dallas for president and vice president
while one was contending and voting in
one branch of congress against a United
States bank, against a protective tariff, and
against distribution, the other, ia the other
branch was ad vocating a bank, a protective
tariff, and distribution. THIS illustrates To-
cofoco consistency as well as locoloco "de-
mocracy,"
The Baltimore convention adopted a res
%olution declaring a bank unconstitutional
and ineypediert.
Mr.. Dallas, as late as Jolly, 1886, con
tended that a bank was both constitutional
and expedient.
The convention adopted a resolution de-
claring the assumption Of state debts uncon.
stilu,ional.
The same convention resolved in favor
Of the annexation Of Texas, thus sanction.
ing the assumption Of the ten Tor twenty
Millions debt Of that countryl
We might extend this exemplifcalion

From The Baltimore american.

We copy with pleasure the following
remarks from the National Intelligencer
which ought to be read by candid men of
all parties. The truths which are here pro-
mulgated are SO well known to all whose
memories run back 4 few years that the ir
co rrectness must be admitted. We COM
mend the article 10 the attention of every
well wisher ofhis country
AFEW SERIOUS THOUGHTS.
We have reached crisis in the condi-
ton of our country hat demands the seri-
Gus reflection of every one that properly
appreciates the supremacy of law, of good
order, and of the stability OF our institutions.
Ii is not to be denied hat for many years
past there has been q great falling off IN the
moral tone of society, and particular in
that portion connected with the administra-
ton of Government. We have seen whole
communities convulsed by recklcness asso-
Citations of individuals, taking the law in
their own hands to the extreme Of putting
to death citizens Of the country in the most
summary and cruel manner. as lately in
the case ofthe Norman Joe Smith and his
brother. We have seen a district Of coun-
try rise up against the ministers ofthe law,
and with brute force drive them from the
performance OF their duties ; as in the case
with the "Patroon Manor in the State Of
New York. We have seen mobs, again
and again, put all the authorities of a city
at defiance, and conhragate churches and
destroy property and more recently we
have seen a mob in its fury resisting the
civil and military authorities with all
the dread consequences of civil strife. We
have seen the highes, functlonaries OF incor-
pora,ed institutions bring them 10 bankrupt
cy by fraud and robbery we have seen
States. unmindful Of every high an moral
and Just obligation. repudiate their debts, and
beggar their creditors; we have seen num-
bers Of the officers ofthe General Govern
men, violate their oaths Of office, and by
speculation, peculation, and fraud, become
delaulters to the aggregate amount OF mil
lions Of dollars Under the eye aud the
sanction ofthe Executive we have seen a
party press appealing TO the worst passions
Of the masses to divide society into two great
parties, the rich and the poor, as antagonists
IN ell their objects, and urging the latter
class 10 redress their grievances by the pow
er Of their numerical superiority, We
have seen some in high places stepping be-
yond the Constitution in the exercise oil a
power gained by u~surpation and we have
heard the transgressor lauded by The multi
lude for his darings. These are bu! a part
