ly adopted, viz:
Whereas, the present Executive Of the United
States having been elected 10 Office in opposition to
the most earnest efforts Of the Democracy Of the
Union, and having been subjected at their hands TO
the uputatons Of entertaining the erroneous princ-
Piles, and pursuing the evil of hose Of their
opponents whose coadjutor he considered such
state OF circumstances left to the Democratic party
nothing 10 hope or expect from his official career
But having been most happily disappointed in these
expectations In finding that as the President Of a
Republic he was governed by those Republican prin.
! ctpies 10 which he had so uery JTeQueniiy ia ia
rous positions auoioed his adhss,on ard thus cast
OH the tolls prepared for him by those who would
have used HIM as puppet through whom to advance
Their own evil ends, therefore,
hesolred, That the sincere thanks o. the Democra-
cy OF the Union justly due 10 President Tyler
his veoes of the Bank bills and other odous W hig
measures for his adherence TO Democratic doctrines
Jor has manly course IN reference 10 abuses by Wig office
hoiders-and lastly, as GROWING act for the noble
sel-sacrifce, whereby he has chosen like the ancient
Roman to leap into the opening gulf for the saliva
bon OF his country; gulf which, however IT may
entomb him for the present will prove, as did that
10 Curtus more lasting monument IN the hearts of
the People than those which human hands shape out
OF brass marble

We think, however, that Lord Aberdeen is not in
such haste, BY any means, for war with France.
