| and there has been 9 party always to defend the
exclusion but it was not the Wing party. By
these marks we know the Wing party Of 1868,
of l776, of 1894 and of 1870 There il stands,
distinct and peculiar, IN its primitive strength and
purity, and uncompromislng maintenance OF the
natural and equal rights Of man.
Had the Wings of 1858, lived in our dav, and
in our country, they would not have sustained the
vetoes of Andrew Jackson and of john Tyler
Had the Wings Of lS40 lived in ll16 they would
! have resisted the Stamp Act-and in 1858, they
would have been Regcides. There stand the
Wmg partv-always abhorring tyranny, and Ce-
! spisng aduIation, they defy Executive power, and
! they break in pieces all institutions designed to
defeat the will of the people-as we'll the eau

people. as the veto used to bring that will into

In this country the Wings are always identi.

! The first Congress promulgated 10 such theories
as that government had nothing to do with the
currency. or that the People expected too much
from their Rulers Those who signed the De-
claraton of Independence would have been shock

of that sacred instrument TO the title page of a
Sub- Treasury statute.
Nor were the Wings Of l1S7 less wise in their
generation than the Statesmen of this day in re-
gard to Free Trade. They knew that 1t was a
theory to be inculcated among men Tor their uIti-
mate and universal adoption. That Free Trade,

PRAYED for, thatit might be established through
out the whole wo.ld. But they knew that until
the rich and powerful States of Europe would re-
hnuush their restrictions on our infant trade, it
would be folly and madness for this new common
wealth to leave the industry and labor of its citi.
zens unprotected. The American System has

The Wings of 17S7. relnvigoraed and restor-
ed the credit Of the states and of the nation by
devoing the revenues of the Public Domain to
the extinguishment of the Public Debt, and thus
they ultimately secured the great achievement

achievement which boastlng England never con-

Had either of the two recent Wing laws fox dis
tributing the revenues Of the Public Domain
among the states been allowed effect, there would
not now be an insolvent State, and the American
People would have avoided the only rcproach that
has Justly fallen upon their name.
Adhere to the Federal Union, and asslduously

opening roads and improving rivers which shall
facilitate intercourse between the citizens of the
several states and inclte them to cultivate rea

partino Injunction Of the Father of his Country.

their adyersaries have abandoned, and to aid and
restore the feebler states, who for want OF their
lust shares of the revenues of the National Do
main, have failed IN indscreet but not unworthy
enterprises.
Then, as heretofore, Public Works will be COM
pleted which will be not only channels of trade
but means of revenue and bonds OF lndlssoluble
union.
