series OF very pointed resolutions Among them we find

Resolved That disapprove Of the course adopted ct

OF the prominent candidates their power 10 bring

bers OF the laiteri The inference that this has
been done, based upon the letter above quoted, is
strengthened by the admission OF the "Union,"
that some at least of the members Of Congress
are influenced by "petiy jealousies, unqualified
aspirations, private griefs and sectional disap-
Pointments." OF course, these 'petty jeslousies"
must be got rid of-these 'ungratiied aspirations"
must be satsfed-these 'private griefs'' redressed
these sectional disappointments" atoned Cor.
The mode, we need not say, of doing this, can be
alone by the .judicious employment of the patron.
age of the Government, in furnishing the contu.
macious, and in rewarding the faithful-in holding
out the promise of future promotion to the one
class, and in threatening the other with ostracism
and Punishment from office and favor. Persua-
sion is tried with the piant-threats with the OBJ
stinate--flattery with the vain-indeed. all the
numbcrless "means and appliances" which have
always been so successfully resorted to by the
posscssors of power and patronage towards those
who dread their frowns and court the honors at
their disposal.
II the Land Bill shall eventually pass the House
OF Representatives after having been once rejected,
and a second time virtually defeated, the country
will be at no loss to understand the by which
the Executive will have succeeded in bending the
Representatives of the people to its will. We
shall analyze the yeas and nays, upon these va
rious struggles, in order to expose to the people
the Instruments we'll as the authors of this at
tempt, should It be successful TO sap the ndepen
dence Of the Legislative Department, and to con-
vert IT, as has too often heretofore been the case
into mere registrar of Executive edicts-prac-
ucally converting our system into the government |
