among Us:
EtkBUHN TowssniF, July II 1914.
Mr.. MtTcHEtG: Permit an old man, d
companion in arms in the Revolutionary
War with our much beloved Washington, To
say a passing word 70 my young friends about
the great importance Of the coming Pfegiden.
tiai campaign. ! was ID the Revolutionary
and last wars, and may be permitted to say,
that | love my Country and its institutions
dearly, and intend, sc long asI am able, to
aid in the perpetnation and glory Of those In
stitutions, to doso to the extent Of my ability.
| have further, always been a democrat, aud
yet remain one to ali intents and purposes
voted, De soon as ! removed from Virginia,
where property qualifications are required for
the right Of suffrage, for james Monroe, three
times Tor Gen. Jackson Martin Van Burea.
| have lived a Democrat, and was with two
distinguished men, in favor ola pROIEC-
TIVE TARIFF, and a sound and uniform
currency. Since that time, many Of those with
whom | acted have left the Democratic land
marks, and are now supporting James Il.
Polk for the Presidency, with bis opposition
to these great and fundamental principles:
they, also, by supporting the man, support his
principles in favor Of the immediate Annexa-
ton of Texas, thereby extending The limits
and perpetnation of Slavery, by giving those
IN favor ofthat institution d controlling power.
| think and am convinced they will say no!
This James X. Polk, further opposed the CIV
ing of pensions to our old, and, many Of them
INDECENT soldiers. What say my young
friends to this should those old patriots, tDa-
ny Of whom have expended their %patfImony
and health in the service Of their country, be
thrown off upon the cold charity Of the world?
! think all generous souls will say, no! Let
the country which they helped to make and
support lend a helping hand, and as far as pos
sible alleviate and soothe their ripe old age.
Look at Henry Clay, the opposing candi-
date, what has he done! We yet can hear
the thunder of his voice in favor Of his Coun-
try and its soldiery during the last War We
know him TO be attached to the old Demo-
catic land marks, which have, thus far, car
ried our Country safely through every trial;
and we yet find him laboring as Zealously for
the Country and the peoples good as ever.
And now | call upon old aud young to look
well to the best interests of our Country let
not designing men, by their appeals to your
passions, carry you away from these old DEM
ocratic land marks act not with a party who
will cry immediate Annexation Of Texas or
d~isunIoD, but stand shoulder TO shoulder for
your Country and for the Union as il is.
This il, probably, Tie last time my counsel
WILDE introduced upon the old aud yourg
of my Country. My remaining days must be
few upon earth, and | call upon you allfor
this time, and hencefortb, TO stand by Henry
Clay, and thereby perpetuate the true ptin-
ciples Of Democracy.
