AT the risk Of being charged with discuss-
ing hackneyed suhject, we venture to call
the attention Of our readers to the first grand
doctrine Of the American party, and press its
renewed consideration upon their attention.

principles and sentiments emanate, and which

not few. Initliss fhs only safeguard of our

can b. befarc VS. but disunion and decay. How
important bth n, that we should keep il con !.
stantly in view, and expend our best energies,
in carry ing out its spirit to the very letter.
