never sacrificed his principles to temporary expedi-
ency, or departed from the straight path Of dov in
pursuit of personal objects.
Resored, That his noble and patriotic acts. in AR
resting the mad and destructive measures concoc,ss
ooy The Wing Congress during the ever memorable
Extra Session give assurance that the apprehension
OF personal consequences cannot deter John TYLER
from the discharge of his duty.
| Resolved, That the universal acknowledgment BY
the Democratic party, that Pres dent Tyers yetoes
OF Clays Bank BILL saved the Democratic party from
20 years yassaage the Constitution from violation
and the country from the curse of monster, alike
destructive TO the liberties and the prosperity of the
PEOPLE should at least have protected him and his
friends from abuse and vilifcation. n less
ResolUed, That the friends of President Tyler do
sire to cooperate with all true Democrats upon fair
ana equal terms--to confer with all such in REFER

RESOLVED, That the abuse of John TYLER, by Blair
4 Riy's for eighteen months and the denunciations
OF scores of the best and purest Democrats in the
land, because they in obedience the calls Of duty
sustained President Tyler in his faithful adminstra-

with which they be visited. i~Nsl
Resolred, That the election OF Blair Il Rivos, as
Printers TO the House of Representatives of Congress-
IS regarded as endorsement Of the Globe In its
abusive vndictive course and precludes the friends
OF John Tyler from a cooperation with those, by
whatever name called, who may continue to acknow-
ledge the Globe the exponent of their principles
or the organ Of the party with which they are asso
Grated. Such cooperation is alike forbid by honor
and duty.

distractions continue, suggest for the consdera-
ton of all single hearted Jeffersonian Democrats;

next and there, sinking the partisan in the patriot
select candidate around whom all can rally, and
thus the Democratic party from certain defeat
in November 1874.

banking as heretofore Carried on IN ONO, having
been too loose and unguarded feel bound to con-
denim in the most decided manner the impractcabIe

ating--under Columbus caucus dctation-pledRes
made to the people.
