AMOS KENDALL, THE HIGH PRIEST ov
LOCOFOCOIsM VI


The desperation 10 which I,ocoeoco;,,, :. 4.
IN this State has manifested itself within .'sea
weeks by the republication Of the writiuvs oe Nv
Kendall, in which that Infamous creature . ,ms
other things, attempts 10 prove that the d,s,ons
of God has been manifested towards the Wh;.ue
our country, by the removal by death oe ."' s.
her most eminent men, whose names r;l, some Of
associated with the great and good n,en Of r.
tionary memory, whilst that Of Amos Ksnd.,' o'a
only be remembered 10 be associated vv;,L =, WI
Benedict Arnold. Yes, the same A,o " 'as o.
who disgraeed the Cabinet of MIR Van Rn,on
violations Of the laws Of his country and H. ne
dering oi the public money, has become ihe Is"'
tie Of LocofocoissD. Who Ia there tba, Wv npo..
to mind hundreds Of instances where , ~" esH
and society have been deprived Of their mo-, psyw
and emineDtly good men, whilst the proa;.,.ui
abandoned are permitted 10 live, apparen,ls sna
scourge and corrupt the communities in NJ ny 70
reside. Adopt the doctrines Of Amos R.adn 'neJ
they would lead rs TO the inevitable voneIu,r an"
whenever pnilanthropst, great and ,od 'A'
is removed by death from the head of an - nsn
religious, POLITICAL or civil Institutions II nm, s1
taken as sure token Of the dispeasure of N. a,
mighty towards those institutions Only snis NJ
same principle Of this infamous creain,s = ~ ~
Missionary operations and institutions Of ON, s..
try. Tie would make Us believe that because ,On'.
of their Missionaries have been taken awav by do,,
in the meridian Of life, and in the midst II IN
usefulness, the Ruler Of the Universe had i'm.
manifested his condemnation Of the cause in uL;ss
/ they are engaged.
! Again, il viii be recolccied that when Gen H..
rlsnn was our candidate, the Locos abused him a.,
fool, dotard, coward, who had voted 10 s..n
white men into slavery and complained th,, ~
did not put up our real lsader and give them b,ul.
in the difference Of principles between tie Two s,.
ties. MIR Clay is your Champion, they asserIed.
The is the great advocate Of your views of Nsiio,.i
/ policy; why don you put him up and give "a,
fair light on the real grounds Of difference beu,.n
u.s. Well, we beat them ON Harrison, and h,,o
now taken up Mr. Clay, the very man they b,ss !.
oi;en and uniformly tnld us 10 run and who's nam
ination they said would give us a clear cople.l AZ
principle. But how do they meet the issue thev
so eagerly sought, In an open, manly contesi 4,
measures; Not they. They skulk as far AZ oo..
Bile from their own chosen ground Of controyer,v.
and make battle almost entirely by saysge. person.
| al attacks on MIR Clay And this same man. n
should have said impious) Amos Kendall Is em.
ployed in publishing ISLANDERS Of the basest and yie,t
character, against that eminent public man but no
one could have reason 10 expect that this fac, would
prevent him for an instant from doing any act for
which be was decenty paid The whole tenor Of
his life shows conclusively that his loi has been
cast in ChTlstanacoUntry by mistake bis char.
acter, habits, principles, and predictions, Fl hin
eminenny for the trade Of hired ASSASSIN. He
would do honor to any fraternity Of professional p-
| rates His malignIty is deadly, his haiIFd
is more wsnton, his whole temper more 6endish
and all his feelings more mslevoleni than those Of
the leader Of any band of villains whose exploits
4 are on record. The locnfoco papers in this State,
and their allies, the third party papers, have formed
alliance with this creature in his dsstardly vuik
and are now engaged in republshing bis RismOs,
! slnDders that have been published in the kindred
papers Of other States. Ii the ocofoco lrsden and
their allies, the third party, think by adopting tina
course they can promote the election Of Martin Ila
Buren,, why, they will no doubt follow il up.
| We have desire that Mr. Clay, who was d.
bosom friend of James Madison, and the dsIir-
guished leader of his administration should be ei.
posed 10 the ribaldry of Van Burens creatures,
though we have not the slightest apprehension that
all their desperate and envenoned ISLANDER
harm him in the slightest degree. The csumhfs
in which the Lccoiocos indulge are not new. Thsy
are only dug up from the grave, where they have
fesiered for years, by the hired hyena Of the party,
10 be heaped upon the honored head Of the disin-
! guished champion Of the rights of The peope-
4 When the American people shall turn from Tie
bright record Of the public service Of Henry CaJ
when they shall forget the glory he has conferred
upon his Country and his race TO listen 10 the
merous SANDERS the detraciinns, and the IN
famous falsehoods of Amos Kendall, or any Of Mr
Van Buren's braves, then, and not til then, We
shall believe them unworthy Of his great and Th-
erous character. OLD lRONSlDES.
