the election of Thomas Jefferson to Il
present term, and can say, with trutl

vOlved higher question of persons
liberty, local self-government, hone
, administration and constitutional fre
dom than the present, or one which dt
manded Of our people a call for MOI
earnest endeavors and prudential prir

house and this body to wrest the goy
eminent from the hands OF the preser
despotic and corrupt holders and plac
1t in honest hands, to restore TO citizen
everywhere the proud consciousness {
personal rights, and to all States perfeC

with recognition of the supremacy {
civilians, constitutional law will, in m
judgment, discharge all Of our presen
duty.

Considerable confusion occurred her,
from failure TO announce distinctly
