such sentiments to be designating and trait

loving men, and disgraeeful to the c'!1s-
ization Of the age, aud We hereby, giEee
to our fellow citizens East, Vest, North aud
South, our most solemn pledge that whoever
nay be elected President Of these United States,
in Constitutional way, shall receive from us IN
the lawful discharge Of his duties the same will
