he comes out boldly and gives his reasons for to doing. No doubt the Editors of the Timet have read Mr. Clay's speech of 1S32, in a portion of which he justifies this changc, to the entire satisfaction of till liberal men. Having published the speech of 1811 for the benefit of ourself and our frio»d of the Lafayette Free Press (as the editors kindly remark) we shall be under a double obligation to thorn if they can make room for the speech

of 1832. Every National Republican paper

in Indiana puMidied the Veto Message of Andrew Jaclldn—why, then, should not the Juck»ouRepublican cdiforsgivellenry Clay's Anti-Veto Spcech a place, also. As a matter of course, Messrs. Scott &.

people a safe deliverance from a swarm of partisans who arc literally *'enting out their substance." This Aristocracy it is which would prolong aa Administration, right or wrong: which would huzza to all its acts, swallow all its inconsistencies, praise its very misdeeds, that the individuals who thus shout may batten on the People's money and, ruther than labor with their hands for an honest substance, they will do any thing—sayany thing—yea, be any thing, and every thing, that they i$ay receive their reward.

Look at the presses in New Hampshire which support the Administration, and what do wc find Every one is receiving a reward each zealously bellows love for tho dear People, while their conductors are made rich with Government money. Some receive jtheir thousands, others their hundreds and the only strife among them is whose pipe Hi all loudest tnne the praise of "the People," and the meritsof this blessed Administration.

This posse is headed by an individual, steeped to the very lips in Aristocracy—who monopolizes every Government contract, and by base chicanery contrives to shut out all competition, that contracts may be obtained at exorbitant prices, as a reward for having abandoned all his former professions who once, it is understood, presented a bill in the New Hampshire Legislature, going to deprive all who were not possessed of real estate, from voting at school district meetings who prefers the room of the ^'common people" ia their company—and, clad in

11,030,000 broadcloth and fine linen, evidently believes the people and the money of the people were made for his cspecial benefit.

It has become a really hackneyed phrase, that the mass of community, if loft to themselves nre really honest, and will eventually do right. We verily believe so but as sincrrelv believe, that at this time, they arc, in New Hampshire, most crossly cheated by false professions of most false ami corrupt leaders: by the men who are made the slaves of power through (iovernment subsidies and who would support the glaring inconsistencies the startling doctrines, "the corrupt practices, of Andrew Jackson, were they twice as

AND THE

PRESIDENCY.

—If «nnv man shall doubt that Van Bu-

ren

,bc«n designate !c.r the MC-

cessorshjp to Andrew Jackson,and that

the "Spoils'" are to be distributed so as to insure this, let them read the following from the Magician's resignation of his Secretaryship, when he broke up the 'Unit Cabinet,' because it w$s not made with his tools.

41

From the moment of taking my seat in your Cabinet, it has been my anNious wish and zealous endeavor to prevent a premature agitation of the question of your, SUCCESSOR and, at all events, to discountenance, and if possible to repress the disposition at an earlyday manifested, to connect uv name with that disturbing topic. Circumstances, not of my creation, and altogether beyond my control, have given to this subject a turn, which cannot now be remedied, except by a self-di*franchisemcnt1,- &c.

Who does not see what this means? But if further confirmation be wanting, see what the Globe says about the dis solution of the Cabinet. In that paper of May is the following: "that gene ml movement which the Presidents best and most disinterested friends in the Cabinet thought a necessary sacrifice to the unembarrassed action of his administration."

Why was the dissolution of the Cabinet necessary to the unembarrassed action of the administratipn? Because Van Buren thought he could not slay there, except by a sclf-disfranchisc-mcal

Did Van Buren expect to succeed General Jackson at the expiration of (he first term? Certainly not—for he thus writes in his said letter of resignation:

i4

your sycophantic, time-serving,

You, sir, have consented to be a candidate for re-election. Having, from a deep conviction of its importance to the country, been among the most urgent of your advisers to yield yourself to the obvious wishesof the people," Sic.

Well, then! what was the bargain? Whv, that Van Buren was to be made Vice President on (he 4th of March, 183*3, anil President the succeeding term.

Therefore" says the Globe, (Jane 37th, 1832 "tho friends of the President, whether they personally like Mr. Van JJurcn or not, will rally around him, and do justice to his motives and his acts. By making Mr. an Huron Vice President, they will declare to the world," &c.

And the Globe also puis forth,in the following sentence, that the Spoils" would beonly givento those who should support the succession. Read the iollowing sentence, wc beseech of you, free and independent Electors of the United States.

The power of ofiice should be confined only to such persons as arc inclined to exert it to perpetuate tho Democratic influence in the government."

Is not the reason now clear, why the ".veto"' administration arc so anxious to make themselvrs out the Democratic influence or party. Mo man is to expect office who will not fall down and worship Andrew Jackson and Martin Van Buren.

FROM Tins SAMBJI

THE PEOPI^S COALITION.—Having promised to make this word the antiJackson watch-word, wc think it about time to bring it again forward and in doing ?o, it may be as well to throw together a few reasons why it is peculiarly adapted to the purpose.

Andrew Jackson,Martin Van Buren. and their patent, veto, federal and kitchen cabinets, have combined to establish monarchical doctrines—such as that Jackson can do no wrong—that Jarkson was born to command—that he is under no obligation to obey the laws or cause them to be obeyed by others, unless he shall so will it—that he has aright to chuse his successor— that the salaries of public officers are largesses, or "spoils,"' placed at his disposition, reward his supporters— that lie has a right to punish the free citizens of the Republic, who do not vote for him—that he is paramount to Senate—to Congress—and to the People.

Therefore, the people form a "Coalition," to hurl him from the power he thus abuses.

How wc do glory in this coalition— it has really a charm in it—because it is done in open day, before all the world—because it is opposed to all corrupt combinations of men in power—because it causes the Albany regency to tremble—because it is the will of the People and is therefore truly a democratic measure*-because, in fine, its object is to revive the principles of the Revolution as declared iii

NXW YORK COPRlgy^ EJtQ.l lB.KB..

Extract from the jiddress of James Walson fVebb, Editor of the Courier and Enquirer, on the occasion of his abandonment oj Gen.

Jackson. When Gen. Jackson came into office he possessed to an unlimited extent theconfideiice of the American People—a confidence resulting from a deep sense of gratitude for his military services, and a firm conviction that he would, in all things, b! guided by the best interests of the ccuntry. They knew bira to be honest and patriotic, and they believed him to be beyond the induencc and control of aspiring politicians and reckless office seekers and office holders.— They remembered bis admirable letter of advice to Mr. Monroe his withdrawing from the Senate of the United States during the Presidential contest of 1824—and his patriotic apprehensions from appointing to office members of Congress. These favorable reminisouces were not only revived, jbut confirmed by his inaugural address by his solemnly deckired convictions in favor of rendering tho President ineligible after one term and by his honest indignation at the practice of bringing the executive patronage in conflict with the freedom of elections!

The constitutional period for which he was elected has now nearly expired—his promises, his pledges, und his practice are all before the nation and it is incumber upon a free, a confiding, and an intelligent people, to enquire, hare his pledges been redeemed? Have the fondly anticipated results of his elevation to the Presidency been realized Has lie, in practice, illustrated the beautiful system of government, which, in theory, he prescribed for President Monroe} Has he exhibited an ardent desiro to preserve uucontamimitod by the lures of office the Senate chamber of the Union.1 Has he guarded with Roman virtue the legislative halls of the nation, by withholding from members of Congress executive appointments? Has lie, in his own person, evinced his patriotism by declining a re-election to the executive chair And has lie, during his administration, frowned with horror upon every attempt to bring the executive patronage iu conflict with the freedom of elections?" These arc grave inquiries, involving alike the prosperity of the country, and the futurh reputation of one who has led our armies to victory, and merited the gratitude of his fellow citizens. I need not answer them—the whole course of public events since March, 182!}, but too clearly demonstrates that the patriotic theories of a gallant general have been abandoned in the practice of a confiding, a betrayed, and deluded President.

Since 18-2.'i, 1 have been the firm, undeviating friend of Andrew Jackson—through good and through evil report 1 have defended his reputation and advocated his cause and for the last five years »"y exertions in his behalf, as the conductor of a public journal have been known to this community. But the time has at length arrived when 1 owe it to the PEOPLE, to the institutions of the country, and to myself, to declare undeliberate onviction, that he has not realized the high hopes which his previously written and declared opinions promised, nor redeemed the sacred pledges which he voluntarily gave on his elevation to the first station in thtfworld. Lot me not be misunderstood I do not—I r.cver will impcach his patriotism or his integrity but as a sentinel at my post, true to the duty which 1 voluntarily assumed when 1 became the editor of a public journal,! feel callcd upon to proclaim to the PEOPLE, that Andrew Jackson is not their President that, enfeebled by age, and the toils, cares, and anxieties of an activc and laborious life, he no longer possesses his former energy of character, or independence of mind but that, confiding in those who have wormed themselves into his confidence, he lias cntrustoll the affairs of this great Nation, and the happiness of thirteen millions of Freemen, to the hands of political gamblers, and money-changing, tiine-sorving politicians, who, in the pursuit of their unhallowed purposes, threatened ruin to the country, and to the sacred character of our liberties, which was matured by the wisdom of our fathers, after having been purchased with their blood, and the sacrifice of every selfish motive on the altar of the public good. The events of the past three years—the occurrences which are almost daily transpiring—the high-hnnded infringements of the constitution, and the tone of the ofticial paper at Washington—all but too clearly prove, that a few mercenary a«d unprincipled officers of government, possessing the confidence of the executive, and leagued with a band of reckless money changers at Albany, arc bringing disgrace and distress upon the country, and destroying the fairest fabric of liberty which an allwise and beneficent providence ever bestowed upon man.

I do not consider it of importance to point out at this time the various acts which have justly cxcited my alarm, and admonished me of my duty as the conductor of a public journal, to call upon the DEMOCR A( of the country to stand by their PRINCIPLES. The refusal of Andrew Jackson to sign the bill re-chartering tho bank of the United States and the dangerous, latitudinarian, and unheard of doctrines promulgated in his late and ever memorable veto message, have created a new era in our history, and filled with alarm and di«may the reflecting portion of the people. It now apparent to all, but those who nre wilfully blind, that with a cabinet around him which combines as much talent and public virtue as any that has been constituted since the-formation of our government—with constitutional advisers who would reflect credit upon the brightest davs of the republic—with a whole people grateful for the past, and confiding in the future—he has given himself up to the private and interested councils of obscure, prejudiced, and ignorant individuals, who arc not even indirectly responsible to the people for their advice, and who arc only known to them as the occupants of subordinate stations in the Government, acquired by ingratitude and apostary.

The question then arises whether the people will dispense with tho services of Andrew Jackson, or with the incalculable ad-

If the intrigues and scheming mercenary plans of the Albany rooney-changcrs, and their detpirnMe Washington associates, should toccc. in deceiving the people, and Andrew Jackson be nominally re elected President, the affairs of the Bank of t!l»e United States must be inevitably wound up, and tba country

Bankruptcy and ruin will be the fate of thousands aud tens of thousands and the speculator, the man of dollars, tho money-changers of the land, will revel in the indiscriminate ruin they havejproduced, and the general plunder they wi'l divide with their unprincipled associates. Thi3 is no painting of the imagination—no picture of distress drawn to alarm a confiding people—but a mclancholy truth, verified by tho experience of the p^ast, when t^e old bank of the United States, with only eleven millions of capital and thirteen millions of discounts, was required to wind up its ooncerns, aided by seven millions of dollars in the public treasury. Now we have a bank of thirty-five millions, with sixty millions of discounts, and in the west alone they have thirty mittions of discounts more than tho amount they hold of the stock of the institution!

It is, withal, not only utterly deficient in sound reasoning, but addressed to the worst passions of our naturo —a mere electioneering paper, designed to array the poor against the rich—a document which might havo been addressed to tho canaille of Paris during the worst period of the French revolution, but which is absolutely disgraceful to tho executive of the United States, and disropatable to the age in which we live.

I, as a mechanic, have taken considerable notice ofthiskind of slang, used by men calling themselves Jacksonians, for party purposes. I am a mechanic and a Wool Hat Boy, if the party may please to call me so. I feel if General Jackson is elected, I shall have to go without any hat. This is a wrong idea of the Jackson leaders, that they can blarney up the mechanics and others to vote for General Jackson.

FROM Tltf. CONNEItSVII.MS SKNTINKT..

The conflict is finished. The pangs art orcr.' It has become the painful duty of the friends aud relatives of A Ml AM VAN VLEET, E.-ian. to record him among tho DEAD. He departed this life on the evening of the 2.')d of July Inst, in the" City of New York, in the 4!Mh year ofliis i^.

Tho deceased was born in IIun#ptylon County, New Jersey, on the 19th of h'epteitebcr, 1?8.'J. About the year 1812, lie emigrated to the State of Ohio. At that timd his health was very delicate, but the change of climate repaired it much. From thence, he came to this Village, in the year 1823 whore, in a few weeks after having arrived, he was bereft of his first fond wife, the mother of nine children. He brought with him tho first Printing Office that was established in this County, but the country was too new at that time, to maintain an establishment of that kind. Again, in 1836, he bad part in establishing the one that ia now flourishing in this place. He left here in June, 1831, for New York City, with hope and expectation of returning in a short time, but ho was gathered to the home of his fathers, ere that hope could be realized.

Having been doomed in early life to struggle with tho relentless hand of poverty, he had no means of cultivating his initid or acquiring knowledge, except by his own exertions, nt such times ns ho was nble to remit his labours for a subsistancc. To attain this laudible object, he was unremitting in his endeavors, anil at the midnight hour, instead of resting in the arms of fdecp, after the labours of the day, ho kept his constant vigils at the shrine of knowledge, by the pale light of the lamp. Over it he hbvercd, until he procured a respectable education, one which rendered him useful to mankind, his country, and his G'od. He edited a public Journal in Lebanon, Ohio, a number of years during which time he was called upon by tho people to render them civil service, lie was the Author of several books, some of which have conferred a lasting benefit upon his country. By having nccustorncd himself, in early life, to studious, temperate, and virtuous habits, he was prepared in manhood to act vigorously in business,and would not quit his toils—though ho was ailing for years, and confined to iiis bed for monthsr —until the cold hand of death had'dimmrtl bis eyes and bennnimcd his nerves, when hi met his /ate with calmness, composure, and manly fortitude, arising from the consciousness that a well spent, life is the safest and surest pasjijprt to a happy eternity.

It is a hard case, to lose, even the least interesting one, from a circle of friends but when the insatiate Despoiler snatches the one all loved and revered, with more than ordinary ardour one to whom all looked for advice and instruction one who daily taught, both by precept and cxampl^,that virtue and morality was the road to happiness and when all are left alone to wander through the many and difficult paths of this world, without the aid or assistacce of him, in whom they had unbounded confidence, and whose fond heart ever vibrated for their happiness, the case is infinitely harder, it is truelya lamentable and irreparable loss. But when we consider that it is a CJod of infinite wisdom, who never strikes but at the fittest moments, who iias deprived society of this faithful man, children eff this kind and affectionate parent, we must yield, and bear the loss with fortitude.
