tous lessons OF the past four years will inspire

discharge of all its constitutional functions. and
most especially in times Of great national peril;

embarrassmcnls resulting from the late war, the
Democratic party will not withhold its support
from the policy of the Administration SO far as
the same tends to secure the rights and liberties
Of the States and of their citizens.
Resolved, That upon every ground Of justice
ana policy to the white people OF the country, as
we'll rs OF humanity to The negro themselves the
Democratic party is infexibly opposed to negro
