Resotced. That the measures and policy which
10 the midst OF the contests for the last sixteen
years, it has been the aim of the Wing party TO es-
.alsh and perpetuate, still commend themselves 10
US by their wisdom, because when adopted they
have never failed TO exert an emnenlIy sautary
influence IN advancing the general welfare, and in
IN restoring prosperity TO the country which had
been Frustrated under previous misrue. ,
| Rosotced, That the revenue and tariff system
which now prevails, is one which IN the present
state OF commercial restriction among nations in in
tercourse with u.s. essential and vital 10 the inter-
ests and prosperity ofthe country and that under
the sway of this policy, all the Industrial pursuits
four people are alike fosered and protected the
faith and credit ofour government rendered sound
and stable, and its treasury made ample for the
proinolon 10y process sufficiently rapidly Of all
those great objects at national Improvement and de-
fence, which while they give indispensable faci;-
tiles to internal commerce, contribute more essen
TALLY than showers along the steep" TO our securi-
ty against foreign invasion. ~ f-- rsa
RESOLVED, That it was the application Of princ-
pals upon which the present tariff is based, That
Gen. jackson was indebted for the means Of ac-
comprising the result which was claimed as the
crownng act of his admnstralion-lhe payment
of the national debt; that to the same policy may
be traced the ability Of Congress from time to time
To provide for the security of the North Western
commerce in the Great valley ofihe ST. Lawrence,
by appropriations for the construction otLake har
bors, and Tor other meas Tres IF kindred cnarac-
ter.
Resolred, That appropriations by Congress, for
these great objects are not only within the scope
Of constitutional power, but loudly demanded by
the hghes. consideration Of duty and expediency !;
but that the great Interests dependent on them are
not safe III The hands Of our political opponents IN
Congress, ioasmuch as the Legislative history of
the country will show thatthat party invariably op.
poses them, except in those cases where represen
taiive is from constituency having direct To-
cal interest in their expenditure.
Resolred, That the distribution of the proceeds
of the sales of The public lands among the several
States onthe basis of federal representation, woul Id
the opinion Of this convention be eminenty wise
and just; demanded alike By the highest exped-
sncy and proper exercise OF fidelity to that sacred
trust by which they are committed TO Congress by
the cedng States.
