INDEPENDENT NATIONAL UNION PARTY oRGANIzA-
TIoN-PATRIoTIC CALL OF THE UNION MEN OF
MASSACHUSETTS FOR STATE UNION PARTY con-
yENTIoN AT NEwBURYPoRT, SEPTEMBER 5, 1853.
The undersigned, Independent Union Men of Mas
sachusetts and citizens Of Newburyport, without
distinction Of party, believing that the present
ganization OF political parties throughout the coun-
try has tendency to ere ate sectional prejudces and
to endanger the peace, union liberty and indepen-
dence Of the American people, if not the permanency
OF our republican institutions and government; and
that under the present system of conventional mis-
rule and party dictaton, they are wholly msrepre-
scented in their constitutional rights, and in their ap
probation of the inestimabe value of our National
Union and are made subserveut to the interests of
sectional and political parties regardless of the great
national interests Of our country unite in recon-
mending an Independent Convention of the Union
Men Of all parties, to be holden in the City Hall at
Newburyport, on Monday the 5th day of September
next to take into consideration the ways and MEANS
then and there to be presented for the total abandon
ment of all existing parties, and the organization,
under entire new issues and measures, OF an indie
pendent State and National Union Party, upon
broad, deep and lasting foundation.
a full attendance of the Union men of Massa-
chusets, from every town, city, and county of the
State, is requested at this Convention, independent
of all existing parties.
This new party will be devoted to the cause of
national union 1t will be pledged to uphold the
constitution, the Union and the laws, and to stand
by our country and national government long after
all other parties cease to have an existence.
Under its State organization it will withhold its
support, IN all future State and national elections,
from every element of dsunion, and from all candi
dates for Office not pledged to carry out the prnc
pies, policy, and measures of this new party.
We also unite in a call for National Union Party
Convention, in the city of Washington, the 22d
Of February next, to be fully. represented by the
Union men Of all parties, and by the American peo-
pie from every Congressional district, State, and
Territory Of the American Union.
In the belief that the present organization Of poti
cal parties under their antquated issues policy and
measures tend to separate the government from the
people, and endanger the union, liberty and inde-
pendence Of the American people, we urgently re-
commend an immediate abandonment Of all existing
parties and simultaneous action Of the Union Of
Massachusetts, with those Of the South and greatWest,
