resent their principles, and who are invested
with their power should be found, shoulder to
shoulder, with that party which opposed the
acquisition of the very ground on which their
names stand? | do not SO understand til lem.
When they desire such achievements, they
can, and no doubt will, make some man the
object Of their suffrage, with political prnc,.
Piles wholly variant from those of Gen. Cass:-
and it is no excuse that they could not find Il
prototype of their principles in Gen. Taylo
for they certainly might, had they have been
disposed to go with the four, have found one
in The great political rcprobate:-and it seems
to me, that those four were behind their own
principles, in that they failed to advocat his
elevation to the Presidency. When the demo-
cracy Of Iowa desire the accomplishment o.,
such things, they can certainly make some
manifestation thereof, and not suffer their lc-
gislativc prophets, like the prophets of Israel,
! to hazard the embarrassment and shame in
running without having been called, and OF
daubing with untempcrcd mortar in the excr.
else of their functions.
