/ Nothing is wanting to insure success to the

1 a united effort in the nomination CT the demo-

party have met with but disaster and de-
! feat wherever the democratic party have
! been united, since the eyes OF the nation were
/ opened by the monstrous measures urged on
I by Mr. Clay as dictator in Congress, and
who is again presented to the nation as an ex
I ecutive dictator to the country. In no State

where divisions in the democratic party in re-

discoutents, and divisions about favorites that
federalism counts. Can it indulge the hope
that now, when its -monstrous ylsage is fully
unmasked, the true-hearted, intelligent, reso-
lutte people of this country, who have always
hated tyranny in every form, will embrace

accursed measures at once? There is not one
great feature in his policy that is not stamped
indelibly with aristocracy. War uDon the
many for the benefit of the few, extortion
from the poor for the advantage of the rich.
Cypress on of the weak to give power to the
strong, are the most striking characteristics
of Mr.. Glay's policy. He looks to the pow.
erful. the rich, the artfu associates of the
reproducing classes with his interests, to
overwhelm, by concerted efforts, the great
masses of the country, and give him the pow
er to make them spoil. Seduction, deluson,
persuasion, mixed with overbearing authority,
will all be employed to make those of our
countrymen who look only to government for
protection, consign it to the hands of man
who will make it what government has al
ways been elsewhere-the means of the sub
iugation of the honest multitude to the woke
of the artfu and interested few. We do not
believe that the Independent and intelligent
spirit of this country is yet prepared for such
a change. And so believing, we look to the
result of the November election as another
great triumph of the cause of democracy in
in this country. To promote this result, we
revive the publication CT our cheap period
