Of New Hampshire hare lately issued IN address, IN
which they take better ground than heretofore in re-

We have carsfaly read this address Of the leading

Wings. coupled with general statement of Whig
principles as held by them. and aso with a,.emp,
show that the Democrats in the different States are
divided ~ to their principles and objects. This we
repeat, 10 the ground occupied in this address, but
70 render The matter still clearer. and to acquie
selves Of all suspicion Of being Influenced BY dis
position to do the Wings Of that State injustice, we
quote at length their principles as laid down by them.
selves, as follows = 49, 49,. .......l..s. ~.
81. The Whig party knows neither North nor
South, and endorses ultra opinions OF any type. A
political triumph BY the aid Of any new local ques-
ton ephemeral measure would be worse than de.
feat in defence of established principles.
9. Union among the several States and peace with
foreign nations. Ours 10 high and noble work to
cultivate the arts of peace.
5. The Union Of the States, ono and insepanble: |:
the harmony Of the whole system is dependent upon
H.. IS NhoH A~1s~
sive doctrine Of the States rights finds no place in the
system Of Wing principles.
4. The Government being for the benefit Of the
governed 10 bound to provide for the interests Of all
its members. "A tariff for Proteeon as well as reve-
nue. has ever been the policy of the Whg party. The
improvement Of rivers, and hasbors uron the lakes

General Government as the improvement Of she sea.

tation Of expenditures within the average incomes the
faithful economical discharge Of official dntes BY Off.
GERS Of all grades, home and abroad, and decided
stand against demagoeuism and faction. and entang'
ling alliances with foreign nations, are primary arsi-
cles Of the Wing creed. Let those repudiate them
who will, blight them as Of no importance COM
pared with come modern notions Of Democratic origin
and ana,ical growth bot a. for us, We will walk in
the path Of fathers, ard give At least respectful
hearing 70 their last words Of warning advice.

the Government against any and al, whether at the
North or South, who combine to violate the Const'

| We now ask our readers to compare the foregoing
with the following extracts from tho Register and
Star. The Register says: p, s - .... .

Of Southern institutions by abusive diatrbes agains

Whig party of North Carolina any other SoathsTr
