John Potter, in New Ilarrsburgh, on
The 18Th inst, when tho following pre-
ambIe and resolutions were adopted:
Whereas, the time having arrived
when The duty Of every !rue friend oI
his country calls upon him for action
The result of the deliberations Of the
late Whig NaioneI Convention being
now known, we believe that it only re
quires the united action and ConcPnlra
ted efforts Of the friends OF Tariff for
the protection Of home industry and for
revenue; of the friends Of law to re-
store 10 the country a sound national
currency ofunilorm value and sufficient
abundance to answer oil reasonable de-
mands Of the friends Of the distribution
Of the proceeds OF the sales OF the Pub
| lie Lands, to aid the States in the pay
ment Of their public debt, and for inter-
nal improvement and education; Of tho
friends Of restricting the Veto power TO
the limits intended by the (ramers oil
the Constitutions of the friends of the
one term principle, to ensure the tri-
umphsnt election Of HENRY CLAY
and THEODORE FRELINGHUYSEN
to tho high offices for which they have
been nominated. Therefore, be it
