Bunker Hill Declaration. SEPTEMBER 10Th t, 1840. When men pause from their ordinary occupations, and assemLle in great num bers, a proper respect for the judgment of the country, and of the age, require that they giould clearly set forth the grave causes which have brought them together, and the purposes which they seek to pro. mote. Feeling the force of this obligation, more than fifty thousand of the free elec tors of the New England States, honored also by the presence of like free electors from nearly every other State in the Uni on, have assembled on Bunker Hill, on the 10th day of September, 1840, proceed to set forth a DECLARATION of their principles, and of the occasion and objects of their meeting. - In the first place, we declare our un alterable attachment to that public libel ' ty, the purchase of so much blood and treasure, in the acquisition of which the field whereon we stand obtained early and imperishable renown. Bunker Hill is not a spot on which we shall forget the principles of our Fathers, or suffer any thing to quench within our own bosoms the love of freedom which we have inher ited from them. In the next place, we declare our warm and hearty devotion to the Constitution of the country, and to that Union of the States which it has happily cen.ented, and so long and so prosperly preserved, Wei call ourselves by no local names; we re. cognise no geographical divisions, while we give utterance to our sentiments on high constitutional and political subjects. We are Americana, citizens of the Uni ted States, knowing no other country, and desiring to be distinguished by no other, appelation. We believe the Constitution, while administered wisely and in its pro per spirit, to be capable of protecting all parts of the country, securing all inter ests, perpetuating a National Brotherhood among all the States. We believe that to foment local jealousies, to attempt to prove the existence of opposite interests between one part of the country and ano • ther, and thus to disseminate feelings of distrust, and alienation, while it is con temptuous disregard of the councils of the great Father of his country, is but one form, in which irregular ambition, desti. tute of all true patriotism, and a love of power, reckless of the means of its gratis tication, exhibit their unsubdued and bur ning desire. We believe, too, that party spirit, how. ever natural or unavoidable it may be, in free Republics, yet when it gains such an ascendency in men's minds, as leads' them to substitute party for country, to seek t►o ends but party ends, no approba tion but party approbation, and to fear no reproach or contumely, so that there be no party dissatisfaction, not only alloys the true enjoyment of such institutions, but weakens, every day, the foundations on which they stand. We are in favor of the liberty of speech and of the press; we are friends of free discussion; we espouse the cause of pop ular education ; we believe in man's ca pacity for self-government; we desire to see the freest and widest dissemination of knowledge, and of truth; and we believe, especially, in the benign influence of re ligious feeling, and moral instruction, on the social as well as on the individual hap piness of man. Holding these general sentiments and opinions, w•e have come together to de clare, that under the present administra tion of the General. Government, a course of measures has been adopted and pursu ed, in our judgments, disastrous to the best interests of the country, threatening 1 the accumulation of still greater evils, ut terly hostile to the true spirit of the Con• stitution and to the principles of civil lib erty, and calling upon all men of honest purpose, disinterested patriotism, and un biassed intelligence, to put forth their ut most constitutional efforts in order to effect a change. Gen. Andrew Jackson was elected President of the United States, and took the oaths and his seat, on the 4th of March, 1829; and we readily admit, that under his administration, certain portion of the public affairs were conducted with ability. But we have to lament, that he was no proof against the institutions and influences of evil councillors, or perhaps, against his own passions, when moved and excited. Hence, in one most important branch of the public interest, in that es sential part of commercial regulation, which respects the money, the currency, the circulation, and the internal exchange of the country, accidental occurrences, acting on his characteristic love of rule, and uneasiness under opposition, led him to depart from all that was expected from him, and to enter upon measures, which plunged both him and the country, in greater and rester difficulties at every step, so that in this respect, his whole course of administration was but a series of ill-fated experiments, and of projects, trained in disregard of prudence and re cedent, and bursting in rapid succession; the final explosion taking place a few months after his retirement from office. Gen. Jackson was not elected with any desire or expectation, on the part of any of his supporters, that he would interfere with the currency of the country. We affirm this, as the truth of history. It is incapable of refutation or denial. It is as certain as that the American Revolution was not undertaken to destroy the rights of property, or overthrow the obligation of morals. But, unhappily, he became involved in a controversy with the then existing Bank of the United States. He manifested a desire, how originating, or by whom in• spired, is immaterial, to exercise a politi cal influence over that institution, and to cause that institution to exercise in turn, a political influence over the, community. Published documents pi ove this, as plainly as they prove any other act of the admin istration. In this desire he was resisted, thwarted, and finally defeated. But what he could not govern, he supposed he could destroy; and the event showed that he did not overrate his popularity and his power. He pursued the bank to the death, and achieved his triumph by the Veto of 1832. The accustomed means of maintaing a sound and uniform curren cy, for the use of the whole country, hav ing been thus trampled down and destroy ed, recourse was had to these new modes of experimental administration, to which we have already adverted, and which ter minated so disastrously, both for the rep utation of his administration, and for the welthre of the country. But Gen Jackson did not deny his con slitutional obligations; nor seek to escape from their force. lie never professedly abandoned all care over the general cur micy. His whole conduct shows that lie admitted throughout, the duty of the Gen eral Government to maintain a supervis ' ion over the currency of the country, both metalic and paper, for the general good and use of the people; and he congraula ted both himself and the nation, that by the measures adopted by him, the cur rency and the excnanges of the country were placed on a better footing than they ever had been under the operation of a bank of the United States. This cora dence in his own oxperiments, we know, proved most illusory. But the frequen cy with which he repeated this and simi lar declaratim.s, establishes, incontesta bly: his own sense of the duty of the Gov eminent. In all the measures of Gen Jackson up on the currency, the present Chief Mag istrate is known to have concurred. Like hi in, he was opposed to the Bank of the United States; like him, he wag in lavor of the State Deposite Bank; htasisted, that by the aid of such Banks, the admin istration had accomplished all that could be desired, on the great subjects of the currency and the exchange. But the catastiolThe of May, 1837, pry - duced a new crisis, by overthrowing the last in a series of experiments, and crea ting an absolute necessity, either of retur ning to that policy of - the Government which Gen Jackson had repudiated, or of' renounci , q, altogether the constitutional duty which it had been the ohjoct of that policy to perfurin.—The latter branch of the ii:ternative was adopted. Refuge was was caught in escape. A duty, up to ' that moment admitted by all, was sudden ly denied, and the fearful resolution an• nuanced, that Government should here. after provide for its own restage!. and [WHoLz No. 252. that for the rest, the people take care of themselves. Assembled here, today, and feeling in common with the whole country the evil consequences of these principles, and these measures, we utter against them all from first to last, our deep and solemn liapprobation and remonstrance. We condemn the early departure of Gen. Jack son from that line of policy which he was expected to pursue We deplore the temper which led him to his original quar rel with the Bank. We d4loce the head - strong spirit which instigated him to pur sue that institution to its destruction. We deplore the timidity of sonic, the ac quiescence of others, and the sul,servien cy of all his party, which enabled him to carry its whole, unbroken phalanx to the support of measures, and the accomplish ment of purposes, which we know to beA gainst the wishes, the remonstrances, and the consciences of many of the most res pectable and intelligent. We deplore his abandonment of measures that had been pursued for forty years; his rash experi ments with great interests; and the per ', severance with which he pressed them, when men of different temperament must have been satisfied of their uselessness and importance. But Gen Jackson's administration, au thority and influence, are now historical. They belong to the past, while we have to do, to-day, with the serious evils, and the still more alarming portents of the pres ent. •Ve remonstrate, therefore, most ' earnestly and emphatically, against the policy upon this subject of the present ad ministration, 'We protest against the truth of its principles. We deny the pro priety and justice of tits measures,—We are constrained to have too little respect for its objects, and we desire to rouse the country, so far as we can, to the evils which oppress and the dangers that sur round us. We insist that the present administra tion has consulted its own party ends, and the preservation of its own power, to the manifest neglect of great obj,cts of public interest. We think there is no liberality, no political comprehension, no just policy in its leading measures. We look upon its abandonment of the curren cy as fatal, and we regard its system of sub.treasuries as but a poor device to a void a high obligation, or as the first in a new series of ruthless experiments. We i believe its professions in favor ofhard .mo -1 ney currency to be insincere; because we ldo not believe „that any person of com mon information and ordinary understan ' ding, can suppose that the use of paper, as a circulating medium, will be discon tinued, even if such discontinuance were desirable, unless the Government shall I break down the acknowledged autharity (of the State Governments to establish Banks.—We believe the clamor aga inst State Banks, State Bonds, and State Credits, to have been raised by the friends of the Administration to divert public attention from its own mismanage. ment, and to throw on others, the conse quence of its misconduct. We heard nothing of all this in the early part of General Jackson's administration, nor on til his measures had brought the currency of the country into the utmost disorder. We know that in times past, the present Chief Magistrate has, of all men, had most to do with the system of State banks —the most faith in their usefulness, and no very severely chastened desire to prof it by their influence. "Nre believe llutt the purpose of exerci sing a money influence over the cotnmu , nity has never departed front the adminis (ration. \Vital it could not accomplish by an attempt to bend the Bank of the Uni ted States to its purposes, we believe it has sought, and now seeks, to effect by its project of the Sub-treasury. We be lieve, that in order to maintain the princi ples upon which the system of the Sub treasury is founded, the friends of the ad milliwation ha,, been ied to espouse o pinions di structiv, ,f the internal com merce of the country, paralyzing to its •vhole industry, tending to sink its labor, both in price,and in character, to the de graded standard ot the uninformed, the ignorant—the stiffing; labor ot the worst parts of k:urope.— Led by the same necessity, or pushing the same principle still further, and with a k;nd of revolutionary rapidity, we have seen the rights of property not only as slile,t, but denied—the boldest agragrian ' notions put forth—the power of transgres sion trent father to son openly denounced —lite right of one to participate in the earnings of another, to the rejection of the natural claims of his own children.as serted us a fundamental principle ot the new Democracy ; and all this, by those who are in the pay of the Government, re eel% ina large salaries, and whose offices would bo nearly sinecures, but for the la bor perfo rmed in the attempt to give cur rency to these principles and these °pin ^ ions. We believe that the general tone of the measures of the Administration, the manner in which it centers fav Is, it
