tia, Gen. Cass now does. With these
principles inscribed on his hammer. Mr.5
Polk was triumphantly elected. aud has
faithfully aud honestly redeemed the
hedges he made. The measures of his
administration have been untnrmly sus.
famed by the Democracy Of the Union,
aud have reflected eloIy. benefit and hon
or of the country. We feel prord that We
aided in his election, and that Sou'h Gar.
olina give hin. her vote. TO General Cass
we should and will give like cordial and
hearty support. From his youth he has
been firm. consistent and anwarerlnS
democrat. IIe has been our representa-
tive abroad To a great and powerful ma
lion-a member af General Jackson's cab
inetJ~loug Senator nfthe United States,
and in all these situations. as OIL the held
Of battle. he has stood man!ully by his
cuuniry's flag and interests, and contend
ed Cor the honor of the nation and the
righls-or the people. When questioned
as to his opinions, he has not remained
dun and silent, but has frankly answered.
Tf elected President, he is not willing, like
General Tay!oT. TO surrender To an ire
spou,ib!e majority of Congress the rights
Oft the people. and /" deny himself the ex-
ercse of me powers conferred nn him by
The CONSTITUTION. lie has declared lha,
in his opinion, Congress has no right TO
interfere with the question Of slavery ell
ther in the States or Territories. If Gen
eral Cass be elected, what helter guaranty
could we require for our safety, in relation
to any act which Congress nigh, pass on
this subject. than the exercise by him OF
tie velv power? We helieve on every
ground Of policy and principle, the people
Of South Carolina should vote for Cass IN
preference TO Tay Ior: that il would be the
part Of neither wisdom nor policy 10 vote
for nciher--IhaI such course nigh, re-
suit in The defeat Of General Cass i'll the
electoral colleges, and throw the election
into the House of Representatives. where
Intrigue and corruption might defeat the
wishes Of a majority of the people; and
that we should give TO the nominees OF the
Democratic party our cordial, energetic
aud undivided support,
or General Butler, il is unnecessary 10
say much. His name, his fame, aud his
services are associated aud identified with
The glory aud honor Of his country, u
we are willing TO in'rusl to his hands the
rights and liberties Of our people. either in
thesfeld or cabinet.
What may be the final opinion and ac-
tion of the other people OF the Stale, we
know not; but representing ibe Democrats
of three districts Of the First Congressiou-
al District. in their name we pledge Them
to strong, hearty and cordial support of
Cass aud Butler. BE il therefore
Resolrsd, That we approve of the priu
ciples contained in The resolutions adopted
BY the Democratic party of Tie United
States at their Convention at Baltimore,
in May 1913. .,..,
2. That We approve of tho nomination
of Gen. Lewis Cass ard Gen. w. o.
