To, those who take so nuch
pride in calling themselves Jack
sonian democrats, we desire to
state that their idol, jackson, when
president, passed through more
trying ordeal tnan that of CieVr
lands today. When in 81 bill
vas passed by congress to rechar'er
the United States bank, Jackson
vetoed it, had upon himself heap
ed curses and abuse, and the terri
Die crisis which followed was laid
at his door. The senate refused to
confirm his appointments, and
resolutions were passed by that
body censufing the president,
yet wien he departed three
years later to The hermitage he
carried Sitb HIM the gratitude O
the entire Nation, for the people
mslIy acknowledged his wisdom,
and even the dignified senate had
e1pungrd from its records the rcso
lutions passed by that body three
years previous. Il takes strong
uan to do right in CIvVeland's pos
ton, and when the clOud'e have pass
ed over, will not he be exonerated

ton as was Andrew jackson! Time

store to the people the liberty of To-
cal self government.
