~ of the government 10 afford PROTECTION TO A.
MEXICAN lNDUsTRY-to furnish the people with
sound and uniform currency, and 10 distribute
the proceeds of thepublic landsamong the States,
so us TO lessen the taxes of the people.
ReSoired, That Thomas CoRwIN, Ohio's gift.
ed son, deserves the gratitude Of the Nation, for
the fearless manner in which he exposed in his
speech the usurpalons of the Executive.
Resolved, That President Polk deserves the
condemnation of the American people for tram.
pling on The Constitution, and involving us in an
unjust and impo:Iic war, without first consulting
Congress.
Resolved, That the ADMISSION OF SANTA ANNA
and suite TO Mexico, by order of President Polk,
was an net unworthy the Chief Magistrate Of this
great Republic, and that he thereby rendered
laid and comfort" 10 the enemy, which is "TKEA.
SON" against the government.
ReSOlred, That while we as Freemen, claim
the right to speak, and condemn the unconStitu.
honat acts of the President in involving us in this
caIOmitous war, we hurl back the charge with in.
dignarion, made by our uropPonens, that Tho Wings
are friendly to eenemy. Thewillngness with
which supplies were voted by the Wings in Con.
gress-lhe alacrty with which Wing officers and
men rallied in the hour of need TO our coun,ry's
standard, and the loss Of such Wings on the
field of battle, as CLAY. HARDIN, LINCOLN, RING.
GOLD, PAGE, and others, proves The fidelity Of the
Wing party 10 the country, and The senseless rant
of the Locofoco press humbug.
Resolrcd, That the thanks Of the people of
this country arc due TO Gems. ScoTTand TAYLOR.
and the officers and men under their command,
H. r
flag, whilst battling, in compliance with the or.
ders of the President, in foreign country.
Resolred. That we ADMIRE THE FIRMNEss with
which The Wings in Congress RESISTED the at.
Iempts of The President 10 make those old vete.
rams, SCoTT and TAYLOR, subservient to Lieute.
nant Genera-an office which the Locofocos
wished 10 have created, not for The good Of the
country, but for mere party purposes.
WHEREAS, good and convenient circulating
medium is as essential 10 tho prosperity Of the
body polite, as is pure and abundant circulating
fluid to the health Of the animal organism; and
whereas, the excellent system OF banking which
at present possess, tcaS not only opposed al The
lime of itS passage by euery LocotOcO member of
'he LrgiSIature-buti its repeal has been constants.
y threatened and repeatedly attempted, by the
united action Of the members Of thatpolhical par.
y; and whereas, they have given us Gal warn.
ng, that so soon as they can get the control of
he Legislature, they will forthwith strike the
bank law from the statute book; therefore,
Resolved, That ii behooves the people Of Ohio
o be on the alert-and TO use all The honorable
means in their power TO keep the party which
hreatens them with so great an evil, from obtain
ng tho control of the government of the State.
WHEREAS, The apparent quietude which the
Locolocos seem to have assumed on the bank
question, is evidently mere political ruse-lor
hey have constantly assured us tha; they will de-
troy the bank law so soon as they get the power
o doi-and they haveearne from the past, that
heir only chance to get into power, is TO keep ST.
ent on that important question, until they acquire
he ability TO strike it dead at blow; therefore,
