payments, and against taking any
backward step. The platform says
We hold that the act of Congress fix

and not hindrance to that end. The
retiring President of the United States

try for his achievements in the mill
tary service, for the firmness with
which, as its Chief Magistrate, he has

honor and credit, aud for the good
sense with which in unfolding the
prerogative Of his office against the
enrroachment of Democratic House
of Representatives, he has reminded
that branch of the government Of the
propriety OF combining its attention to
It's legitimate functions.
