calm moment of deliberation, and it
fell still-born upon the public. 1t has
evoked no favorable responsive echoes
from the country, and will sink in
popular estimation until the day of
the election. The nomination made
by the same body for Vice President
is not n whit better, and has met with
n reception just as cold as that given
to the other.
No one can be deceived in regard
to these nominations, and they furnish
but another evidence of the defeat
to the stalwart followers that comes
apace, The people of the United
States, with the painful experience of
the past before their eyes, and after
many years of mal-administration, en-
failing untold burthens and vexations
upon them, are in no mood to again
entrust the two highest offices in their
gift to men whose past conduct in
official station will not bear the light
of investigation. The manifestations
of this determination are plainly evil
dent and cannot be disputed or mis-
construed.
Reader, expect the Republican par
ty to meet its Waterloo next Noyem-
Der. You will not be disappointed.
