in the present posture of our affairs, of at

as great imetiiinity prevailed in Congress,
we may a.tety imaire ourselves they will
wet the undivided approbation of our con
stituents throughout the whole Union.
'Phil rapid review, fellow citizene, will
. exhibit what we have done. What we have
felled to du remains to be told.
It te with profound rind poignant regret
that we find ourselves called upon to invoke
your attention to this pint. Upon the
•
great and leading measure touching this
question our anxious endeavor to resnond
tollre earnest prayer of the nation have
been frustrated by an act as mile oked-fur
as it is to be lamented. We grieve to say
to you that, by the exercise of that power'
in the Constitution which has ever been
regarded with suspicion, end often with
Odium, by the Peopte—a power which we j
hail hoped wits never to be exhibited, on
this subject, by a Whig President—we
havo been defeated in two attempts to
create a Fiscal Agent, which the wants of
the country had demonstrated to us, in the
most absolute form of proof, to be eminent ,
ly, necessary and proper in the present
emergency. Twice have we, with the
utmost dilligence end deliberation, matured
a plan for the collection, safe keeping, and
disbursing of the public moneys. through
the agency of a corporation adapted to that
end, and twice has it been our fate to en
counter the opposition of the President,
through the application of the veto power.
• The character et that veto in each case,
the circumstances in which it was adininis
tored, and_ the grounds upon which it has
met the decided disapprobation of your
friends in Congiess, arc sufficiently appa
rent in the public documents and the de
bates relating to it. This subject had
acquired a painful interest with us, and
will doubtless acquire it with you, from . the
unhappy developments with which it is
accompanied. We are constrained to say
that we find no ground to justify us in the
conviction that the veto of the President
has been interposed on this question solely
open conscientious and well considered
opinions of constitutional scruples as to his
duty in the case presented. On the contra
ry, too many proofs have been forced upon
our observation to leave us free from the;
apprehension that the President has permit
•ted himself to be beguiled into an opinion
that, by this exhibition of his pi-crew-Awe,
he might be able to divert the policy oil
his Administration into a channel which I
should lead to new political combinations,'
and accomplish results which must over
throw the present divisions of party in the
country. and finally produce a state et
things which those who elected him, at
least, have never contemplated. We have
seen from an early period of the session,
that the Whig party did not enjoy the con
fidence of the President. With mortifica
tion we haVe observed thathis associations
more sedediusly aimed at a free communion
with these who have been busy to prestrate
our purposes rather than these whose prin.
ciples seemed to be most identified with the
power by which he was elected. ‘Ve have
reason to believe that ho has permitted
himself to bo approached, counselled. and
influenced by %knee who have manifested
least interest in the success of Whig feria-
sures. Whitt were pres-cted to be his
opinions and tri;signs have been freely. and
even insolently put forth in certain portions
end those not the most reputable, of the
public pre4l, in a manner that ought to be
deemed tifinsive to his honor, as it certain
ly as to the feelings of those who were
believed to be his friends. In the earnest
endeavor manifested by the members of the
Whig party in Con:trete to ascertain spe
eifi;etilv tho President's notions in reference
to the details of pat a bill relating to a
Piscal Agent at would be likely to meet his
approbation, the frequent ' changes of his
opinion and the singular want of consisten•
cy in his views have baffled his best friends,
arid rendered the hope of adjustment with
him impossible.
Congress early in the sessian, called up
on the Sncrolary of the Treasury for the
plan of a Fiscal Agent, the result of this
call was a h:11 which was reported in de
tail, with an argument in its favor, and it
was, as we had a right to regard it, receiv
ed by all as the bill of the President. In
fact, it was known to contain sue!) provi-
Rio" is reference- tho a-3s:•nt of the
States, which corresponded with• the prt
vale ()pinion of no member of the Cabinet
This bill the President had even intUrmed
more than -one member of the -House -he
would be willing to sign if passed by
Congrese; yet it contained provisions for
local discounting, in regard to which his
Message affirms his objection to be alto-
,rtlier insuperable. The President has
eubsegnently declared that this was not
hia measure, and that when be said he
would siun this bill he had not read it.—

of ono hundred millions of dollars. Yet
thi: plan, when it- was submitted to hire.
was objected to on tr' new ground. The
lest Veto has harrowed the question of a
bank dovin, to the basiS of the Sub Treasury
scheme, and it is obvious from the , opin
ions of that message that the count ry is not
to expect any thing better than the explo
ded Sub-Tte - usurv, or some measnre of the
same character, from Mr Tyler.
In the midst of all these varieties of opin•
ion, an impenetrable mystery sPented to
hang over the whole question. There was
I no such frank interchange of sentiment as
1
ought to characterize the interceurse of a
President and his friends, and the last per
sons in the Government who would seem
to have been intrusted with his confidence
on these embarrassing topics were the
constitutional advisers which the law had
provided fir him.
In this review ofthe position into which
the Lite events have thrown the "big par
ty, it is with profound sorrow we look to
the course pursued by the President. He
has wrested from us one of the hest fruits
of a long and painful struggle and the con
sutnotian of a glorious victory; ho has
even perhaps thrown us once more upon
the field of political strife, not weakened iu
numbers, nor shorn of the support of the
country, but stripped of the arms which
success had placed in our hands, and left
again to rely upon that high patriotism
which for twelve years sustained us in a
conflict of unequalled asperity, and which
finally brought us to the . fulfilment of those
brilliant hopes which he has dune so much
to destroy.
In this state of things, the Whigs will
naturally look with anxiety to the future,
and inquire what are the actual relations
between the President and those who
brought him into power; and what, in the
opinion of their friends in Congress, should
be their course hereafter. On both of
these questions we fuel it to be our duty
to address you in perfect frankness and
without reserve, but, ut the same time, with
due respect to others.
In regard to the first, we are constrained
to say, that the Preatdent by the course
ho has adopted in respect to the applies.

bank charters each of which there wasps,

lion; by his withdrawal of confidence from
his real friends in Congress and from the
members of his Cabinet; by his bestowal
of it on others notwithstanding their not"ri•
ous opposition to leading meesuros of his
administration, has voluntarily separated
himself froin those by whose exertions and
suffrages he was elevated to that office
through which he reached his piosent ex
alted station. The existence of this unna-
tural relation is as extrsordinsiy as the
annunciation ofit is painful and inortifying
What are the consequences and duties
which grow out of iii
The first consequence is, that those who
brought the President into power can be
no longer, in any manner or degree, justl%
held responsible or blamed for toe adminis
tration or the Executive branch of the Gov
ernment; and that the President and his
advisers should be exclusively hereafter
deemed accountable. But, as by the joint
acts of Providence ar.d the people he is
constitutionally investedwith the - poWers
of Chief Magistrate, whilst he remains in
office be should be tireated with perfect re
spent by all. And it will be the duty'of the
tY Ingq, in'and out of Congress, to give to
hie official acts and measures fair and full
consideration approving them and co•opera•
ting in their support where they can, end
differing from and opposing any of them
only from a high sense of public duty.
The more important question iPmains to
be touched. %Vila ought to be the future
line of conduct of the Whig party in the
extraordinary emergency which now ex
ists?
They came into power to accumpliab
great and patriotic objects. By the z , -al
and perseveranco of the nnijorities in Con-
gress, some of the moat important of thebe
objects have been carried at the extra ses
sion. Others yet remain to be effected
The conduct of the President has occasion
ed bitter mortification and deep regret.—
Shall the party therefre, yielding to semi
menta of dispair abaOon ite duty, and sub•
wit to defeat and' disgrace? Par from
suffering such dishonorable consequences,
the very disappointment which it has un•
fortunaiely experienced should serve only
to redeuble its exertions, and to inspire it
with fresh courage to presevere with e
spirit unsubdued and a resolution unshaken,
until the prosperity of the country is fully
re-established, and its liberties firmly se
cureclagainst nil danger from the abuoes,
enermichments or tHuroatmns of the Ex
ecutive department of the Goverornent.
At the head of the duties which remain
for the Whigs to perform towards .their
cauntry stands conspicuously and pro•emi
nentiv-above all others—
First. A deduction of the Executive
power, by a further limitation of the Veto,
so as to secure obedience to the public will,
as that shall be expressod by the immedi-
ate Repretentatives of the Peopte and the
States, wiih no other control than that
which is indispensable to avert hasty or un-
constitutional legislation.
By the adoption of a single term for the
Incumbent pf the Piesidential office.
.131v'a separation of the Puree from the
Sword, and with that vie,v to place the
appointment of the Head of the Treasury
in Congress; end
By subjecting the power of dismissal
from office to just restrictions, so ns to ren
dor the President amenable for its exec-
Second. The establishment by Congress
of a fiscal agent, competent to collect, safe•
Iv keep, and disburse the public moneys, to
Fedora the currency and to equalize the ex•
changPs of tlte country; and
Third. The toirothrction qf economy in
the edmintatintion of the Grivernment, end
the discontinuance df all sinecures and use
less offices.
To the effectuation oftbeso objects ought
the exertions of the •Whigs hefrafler to be
direcied. .Those only should be chosen
members of Congress who are willing cor
dially to co-operate in.the Accomplishment
of them. Instead of striking our flag, let it
he reared still !Uglier, with a firmer hand
bearing upon its fOlds in conspicuous let
ters:
"The Will of the Nation uncontrolled
by the will of ONE 111.9 N; one Presiden
tial term, a frugal en.vernment, and no
Sub Treasury, open or covert, in substance
or in filet; no Government Bank, but an
institution capable of guarding the Peo
plc's Treasury and administering to the
People's wants."
Rallying under that banner, let us ap•
peal to that People whose patriotic excl.-
fume led to victory in the late glorious
strugglo. Let us invoke the action of the
Legislative Councils of the Sovereign
States of this Union. Instructed by their
immediate constituents, let them ascertain
and express the public will in relation to
these great questions; and especially let
them, within their respective constitutional
sphere, exert themselves to give tt effect.
. .Animated by these principles, end guided
by Providence, defeat is impossible, and
triumphant success inevitable. We may
confidently hope that vast nunibers of our
follow citizens, who have been hitherto
separated faun us, will unite with us under
such a glorious standard, and that majori
ties w both [louses of Congress sufficiently
large may be secured to carry any measure
demanded by the welfare or the nation, in
spite of the interposition of the power with
which any one man nay have been acci•
dentally invested. Disaivointed in that, if
such hope should be our lot, there will ro•
main the hope of an amendment °rale Con.
stitution curtailing the Executive power.---:.
And if that should fill, we have only to re
cur to the noble example of our ancestors,
to recollect the duty we owe to ourselies
and posterity, and to bear with manly furti
tune three years longer the sufferings in•
fficted during the last twelve years by the
mal admtnistration of the Executive depart
moot of the Government. We shell have
the consolation of reflecting, that, in the
mean time, if the President can prevent the
attainment of all the good which Congress
is desirous to accomplish, Congress may
check or prevent some of the mischiefs
which, under a different state of majorities
to tho body, he inigjit ha - ve the, power to
impose.

NEWSPAPER LAW
01-The law is, and so the courts decide, that the
person to whom a paper is sent is responsible for the
payment, if he receive the paper or make use of it,
even though he never subscribed for it. His duty in
such cue is not to take the paper from the office or
place where it is left, but to notify the publisher that
he does'not wish it. 11 papers arc sent to a post of
fice, store, tavern, or other place, and arc not taken
by the person to whom they are sent, the postmaster,
store or tavern keeper, &c., is responsible for the
payment unless he immediately gives notice to the
publisher that they are not taken from the office or
place where they are sent. Extract from the Post
Office Regulations, page 50, section 118:
"In every instance in which papers that come to
your office are nut taken out by the person to whom
they are sent, you will give immediate notice of it to
the publisher, adding the reasons, if known, why the
papers are not taken out."

tars. In the last Keystone' is what is said to be
an extract from era Whig and AnlimiT6OniC Sara

question, we pronounce the "extract" a FOR-

to prove the existence of any such circular, or
stand forth as convicted forgers. The frame paper

citizens, thereby trampling under foot this sopnr
macy of the law, preventing the administration of
justice, and setting up his arbitrary will instead of
the judges, courts and juries of the law!
Remember, that he is again candidate for the
office of Governor, in defiance of your favorite
principle of "one term," which you so emphati
cally declared in the election of the gallant Beni
son! If the principle of “one term" was • good
one then, is it less a favorite with you now! Have
you changed! No! Have circumstances or prin
ciples changed since last fall! No! Is Gov. Porter i
a more virtuous man or able statesman, than Es-
President Van Boren! or, are his political sins
and private blemishes of character leis than his?
No—although, in all conscience, bah are bad

Tho Democratic Legislature last winter passed
a Resolution recommending an amendment of
the Constitution so as to limit the office of Gov.
ernor to a single term. By the 10th article of
the amended Constitution, this proposed amend
ment has to be, and accordingly, will bare been
published in Pvc ry county of the State, during the
three months preceding the ensuing election, in
at least one newspaper. This is to give deepen
plc an opportunity of expressing their opinions
and will either for or against, by their votes in
the choice of Represenfraices ; for it must, agree
ably to the Constitution, undergo the action,
either for approval or disapproval, of the next
%egislature, soon to be elected; and if approved
by it, and then adopted by a majority of the votes
of the people at the next general election, it be
comes a part of the Constitution.
Hence, this is one of the questions that is to be
decided at the election which is now at hand.—
If you are in favor of "One Term" far Governor,
you will vote for Clarkson and ArCidloh, Ste
vens and Fauss, the Harrison Democratic can
didates for Senate, and Assembly, whom* also in
favour Qf it, and who will, if elected, give it their
hearty support. If you think the Constitution
ought not to be so amended, you ought to vote
fur M'Lanahap and Gorges for Senate, and Diehl
and Marshall for Assembly, who are in favour of!
David R. Porter's second election, who are the
candidates of rho party who oppose t! - -e
term" principle, and who are consequently, op- •
posed to it themselves.
They, or their friends may pedlar, for eke
tioneering purposes. pretend to be in favor of tt,
- too. Do not relieve them, unless they give evi
dence of their sincerity, by going easiest the
election of David R. Porter a second time. and
by withdrawing as candidates, front the ticket
pledged to his support. If tbey pc-fess tai be an
favour of a uliit , gle Term," and let go in favor
of Gov. Porter's reelection, and run as the condi
dates of the party who have nominated him a
second time, contrary to the "one term principle,"
they are manifestly inconsistent, and trying to
deceive.
Go, then, to the polls, and vote the "One Term"
ticket, with "honest John Banks" at its head,
and all will be safe.

Batimarterst's PILLS —This medicn-,
acknowledged to be the moat valuable ever
discovered, as a purifier of the Wood and
fluids. It is superior to Sarsaparilla,
whether as a sudorific or alterative, and
stands infinitely before all the preparations
and combinations of Mercury. Its purga
tive properties are alone of incalculable
value, for these pills may be taken daily
for any period, and, instead weakening by
the cathartic effect, they add strength by
taking away the cause of weakness. They
have none ofthe miserable effects of that
deadly specific, Mercury. The teeth are
not injured—the bones and limbs are not
paralysed—no; but instead of these distres
sing symptoms, new life and consequent
animation are evident in every movement
of the body.
Brandteat's Pills are found indeed a
unircrsal remedy; because they cleanse and
purify the blood. Five years this medicine
has been before the public in the United
States; wherever it has been introduced,
hassuperseded all other remedies.
