Litchfield enquirer., 1851-03-13

Resolved, That inasmuch as the per- manence of our beloved Union Is, in our opinion, dependant upon obedience to law, 4uG more especially upon the observance of these laws, usually called compromise measures, recently enacted, we accept of them as such compromise, and will faith> fully adhere to them.
 Resolved, That a recent resolution of a democratic Convention in this State, ''ihat as democratic party we will stand or fall on our own foundation, will submit to no fanatical or isolated party 10 assist ns in obtaining temporary and ingloriouS vic- tory :" and the recent nomination of Chaun- cey F. Cicaveland as the Democratic can. didatc in the lhe 3d Congressional district furnishes striking proof that democracy will profess one Ihiug and practice another; that their professions are for foreign mars ket, their practice for home use and profit. Resolved, That the increased expenses of the General Government are the direct re- suit of democratic practice, and not in ac~ cordance with democratic p'ofesSions.-- That these expenses having been recom~, mended by loco loco committees, and sanc> toned by Congress, democratic in hoth branches, upon tkem rests the responsi- bility.
 Resolved, That these expenses, and the, imminent dang CT ofdissoIution that threat-~ ems our Union, have all been occaSioned by democratic ascsndacy, in spite Of the most earnest protests and verified predictions of the Whig party.
 Resolved That we firmly adhere 10 the Whig doctrine of protection to Amelican in- das|ry.
 Resolved, That having full confidence fE the integrity and ability of the Hon. Thos. B Butler, we take great pride and pleasure in presenting his name again 10 the electors of this district as their candidate for Con> sress, and that we will unilediy employ alR honorable means to secure his reelection.
 Resolved. That the additional resources of the State Treasury amounting to more than 5000 cash, and the shifting of large amount of expenses from the State Treasury, upon counties and 10. Ds which al low estimation will amount to SlO,O0O more, for the present year affords conclu> sive evidence that a much larger sun than O,OO0 under "judicious management of the State faances'' might have been ap> pie'i towards the nrymen, Of the State debt
 Resolved, Tha, the absence Of 6gures which our present state finaneiers and those in their confidence might easily furnish, and the payment of only $20,OOO of the state dent affords conclusive evidence that the state expenses fr the present iSca! year, under iocofnro auspices" have in> creased another proof that loco!oco prac~ tice, as usual, is the opposite of its profess sion.
 Resolved, That we approve of the pros ceedings of the recent Nhig Sts'e Conyen> ton, and having the fullest confidence in the ability and boncsiy of the candidates nominated by that boiy for State officers, we will sustain them at the coming election with our whole unilcl stength, aud will use ali honest means for their election.
