And nowi We confidently ask, can any candid man

Of federalism IN 1Sl2'4 and the presses, preachers
and orators of the federalism of SI6=7 and not be
convinced OF the complete and perfect identity of the
latter with the former-that modern whiggery of to-

ism of our last war-iha it is not the same in spirit
sentiment and tredchefy to their own country and
friendship Tor the country with which we are at war!
Mark the points of resemblance The federalists
OF the last war accused Mr. Madison, when President
OF the United States, with bringing on the war and
OF being guilty OF the "bOod of his butchered coun
rymen. They denounced him as ''crnging cow
ard" They denounced the government over which
Mr. Madison presided corrupt and imbecile y
They charged Mr. Madison with ''prostrating our ma
uonal character" They denounced the wur as being
"lmpoiIuc, unnecessary, and unjust;" as f'uniust
FOOLISH and rulnous; = and as wanonly provoked Oh
the most groundless and frivolous pretences" They
endeavored to prevent capitalists from oonhg money
to the government by threats of inamy and disgrace
as the consequence OF thus aiding their governments.
They attempted to prevent the government from rails
ing troops. They voted in Congress against all bills
for supplying brave and suffering soldiers with
clothing and subsistence. They threatened dissolu
ton OF the Union and took preliminary steps 10 ac-
conplsh their object. And. finally, they denounced
the war got up Tor the benefit of slavery.
