themselves by stringent currency bill,
against the floods of shinplastcr currency
which are now overwhelming the country,
and threatening repetition Of the disasters
Of the days Of Cairo and Shawncetown.
Resolved, That 1t does not surprise us
that James Watson Webb revilcs Kossu'h,
and that the National Intelligencer, the Mis-
souri, Republican, and all that same Federal
party, that refused all sympathy or aid to
the French republicans, in the time Of John
Adams and the alien and scdtion laws, now
treat the petition of kossuth with contempt,
and overwhelm the cause OF Hungary with
misrepresentation calumny and falsehood.
Resolved, That the insidious attempts of
the Missouri Republican, and the Wing
press, TO carry over portion of our Demo-
cratic fcllow-citizcns to the Federal party,
by pandering to religious prejudices, and by
encouraging anti-Republican doctrines, is
well understood by us; but that we have full
confidence that no Democrat will ever deny
or repudiate that fundamental doctrine of
human liberty freedom OF conscience
which brought our Eorefathers to this con-
tinont, and on which they raised for us, and
consecrated with their blood, the sublime
superstructure of civil and religious liberty,
under which we now live and enjoy freedom
for the State, and freedom tor every relig-
ion.
Resolved, That we cannot fail to recog-
nize the Internal Vaccinations of the crown
ed despots and princes Of Europe, against
the cause Of liberty everywhere, in the late
reasonable usurpation in France, whereby
her republican constitution has been over
thrown, and Cavaignac, Lamoriccre and
Victor Hugo, imprisoned, while another en-
pire has been attemptedto be set up, by the
aid of armies voting with bayonets in their
hands, on the basis of the first Consulship,
and on the ruins of the Republic. God
grant that the peoplem may know their rights,
and knowing, dare maintain them!
Resolved That while we rejoice al the
successful intcrpostion of the American
Government, in behalf of the Hungarian
and the Cuban prisoners, we cannot forget
that the Irish patriots, O'Brien, Mitchell,
and Mcagher, and their fellow martyrs, still
linger in banishmcnt, or in dungeons, and
that we still hope that friendly interposition
on the part ofour government may prove no
less successful with the British Queen, than
it has done with the Queen of Spain and the
Sultan Of Turkey.
Resolved, That we admire the gallantry
and noble spirited oonduc, Of those English
brewers who tore the clothes off that dcs-
pioabie minion Of Austrian dcspoism, the
woman-whipping miscrean!, Haynau.
Resolved, That the ineAicency of the
present Wing administration IS manifest in
their refusal to Interfere ciTcc,uaily in thc
case of Thrasher, citizen of the United
States, who was condemned, without trial,
according to the treaty with Spain, for inter-
fering to save the lives of the massacreed
fifty; and that, in or opinion, his liberty
would have been secured, or his wrongs
avenged, by Democratic administration,
under the protecting power Of the star-span-
gled banner.
Resolved That committee of three be
appointed by the Chair to address a request
to the Mayor and Council Of the city of s..
Louis, that they will invite Louis Kossulh
to visit St. Louis and to extend TO him he
hospitalities of the city.
Resolved, That we recommend for the
Presidency General William O. Butler, the
aid and associate of General Jackson in the
achievements we this day commemorate.
whose distinguished valor was conspicuous
on the bloody field of the River Raisin and
at Monterey, and throughout the Mexican
war, and, ''whose politics" in the language
of Col. Benton, "are without q flaw" who
supported Generel jackson with vgor, not
only in the field but in all his civil conflicts
with the Federal party.
1t was moved that the preamble and rcsolu-
tions reported by the committee, be adopted,
pending which Capt. Richard Phillips arose
and stated that he regretted he was compel
led to arise, inasmuch as he had hoped tha.
the sentiments Of that committee would be
of such anaturc as to be received without a
dissenting voice; but he had Objected to the
last resolution which nominated Gen. Butler
as suitable candidaie for the Presidency.
He did this with 20 disrcspoct tosthat gallant
chief, for he contended that there were none
who held him in higher estimation, both in
military and civil lie, than he did. But he
thought that in committing themselves to
that resolution they could not overlook other
