tne last legislature, ConliCt III du eminent
degree with this Just view of the rights OF
the people, by confering immunities, privile-
ges and exemptions upon concentrated
wealth, and incorporated companies. that are
not enjoyed by the mass of the people; and
Whereas, Every system of banking is in
its nature anti.democratic, illibcral, delusive,
and tends to concentrate the wealth of the
State, as we'll as the political power Of the
State, in the hands of few, 10 the excu-
sion of the great body of the people, and
tends to Withdraw the sinews of prosperity
from their legitimate direction, and use them
in creating delusve dreams of wealth; there
fore, -
Resolred, That the democracy of this leg
islative district pronounce once more their
settled and undying hostility 10 every species
of banking, for the emission of paper mo-
ney medium of circulation, believing as they
do, that every system for the emission of such
currency is at war with the fundamental
principles of our government-destructve to
the morals of the people-delusive false,
and tickle.
Resolred, That the only legitimate and
safe currency for all men, good at all times,
and in all places, is that of the Constitution
gold and silver.
Resoyred, That the emission of paper
medium by state authority, was in lhe begin
ming wicked usurpation, which has not
been consecrated by time, but really rendered
less tolerable by the frequency of its perpe-
tration, and the innumerablc evils that have
resulted from it, ever since its adoption.
Resolped, That tho time has fully arrived
when the democratic party of Ohio, if it
would be in the ascendant, must in body
array itself, absolutely, and without reserve,
on the side of the Constitution, and its cur-
rency; and never rest satisfied until tho pre-
cious metals occupy every channel and ave-
nue. of circulation.
ReSolped, That the first duty of the Ohio
democracy, is to wipe from the statute book
that monster of iniquity and falsehood, enti-
tied " An Act 10 Incorporate the State Bank
of Ohio, and other Banking Institutions"
and to abate the nuisances that have grown
up under it.
ResoIred, That the late General Andrew
Jackson will be cherished in the heart of eve
ry democrat throughout the world, for the
more than Spartan bravery, and stole firm
ness, with which he met the armed legions
of the monopoly interest, and stranged the
monster Of the money power, in the midst Of
its purchased advocates, and subsidized
presses.
ReSolred, That the federal party of the
late legislature, in the exemption Of banking
capital from taxation, while they have doubl-
ed the former burdens Of the people, have
gone step further in outraging the patient
endurance of their constituents, than any
other Legislative body in the whole annals of
American Legislation, not even excepting
the cod-blooded tyranny of their brother AL
gerines of Rhode Island.
Resolped, That Texas is ours, by tho free
and unbought suhrnges of the people of the
Two Republics, and that the lone star will be
brilliant star on the democratic banner,
where there will not be man found who will
dare announce himself as having been an
enemy TO lis annexation.
Resolped, ''That oar right to the Oregon
Territory, is clear and indsputable;" and
that the Administration can only uphold the
American honor and the American interest
by clinging TO every foot of ground from the
Mexican possessions on the south, TO the
Russian possessions Of the north, OIL the coast
of the Pacific.
RESOLVED, That the true American policy
is to Danish foreign power, and foreign intlu-
ence from this continent, and to extend the
bonds ofour great, glorious and free govern
ment as long as the people ask for its bene-
fits.
