WHO AEgE JEFFERSON DEMOCF AFs?

L.
As the solEstyed wings, with Mr. Clay as
their party leader, have also assumed the name
of Jefferson Democrats, that the reader may be
able to ascertain whether the name Of Jefferson
Democrats has been justly or suueptitiously as
sumed by them, | will here give few extracts
from publications that appeared in some Of the
leading Federal journals, during the Admintstra-
Itions of Messrs. Jefferson and Madison, wherein
the opinions then entertained by the Federal par
lty, including some of the present wings, of both
these patriots and the Democratic party who
elected them to office and supported their Ad-
Imnstrations, are clearly developed. The cx-
tracts may be found in the Olive Branch, in the
pages as marked. | will also give few ex.
tracts from the speeches Of Messrs. Quincy and
Clay, as they may be found recorded in the De
bates of the House Of Representatives of the
United States, in 1912:

one. Shall we then be held any longer in sa-

a graceless faction? Heaven forbid! !'-Boatoa
