RESOLUTIONS.
The Democracy of Ohio coming
together in the spirit Of devotion to
the doctrines and faith and free rep
resentative governme ent, and relying
for success upon discussion and the
Intelligence of the people, deem the
present Convention fitting occa
sion to reassert the following time
honored principles of the Demo
cratic party.
That the Federal Government is
one of limited powers derived solely
from the constitution that the
grants of power made therein ought
to be strictly construed by all the
dependents and agents of the Gov
ernment, and that it is inexpedient t
and dangerous to exercise doubtful
powers:
That the constitution of the
United States is founded on the
fundamental principle of the entire
and absolute equality of all the
States of the Union, and it is not
competent for Congress to impose
upon them any conditions or rcstric
tions in respect to their internal
concerns which the Federal Consti-
tuition has not imposed.
That the liberal principles embo-
died by Jefferson in the Declaration
of Independence, and sanctioned in
the Constitution, which make ours
the land Of liberty and the asylum
of the oppressed of every nation,
have ever been cardinal principles
Of the Democratic faith, and every
attempt to abridge the privileges Of
becoming citizens, and the owners
of soil among US, ought to be resis-
ted with the same spirit which
swept the alien and sedition laws
from the statute books.
And, in order that we may more
distinctly declare our views Of the
measures and policy of the present
administration.
