Philip triuniphcd at Choeronca When

the foundation of Rome's greatness was laid, the seens of her destruction well planted. Spurning at philosophy, commerce and the arts war was thc profession, plunder was the pursuit of every Roman. While we view with astonishment the pet severance of the republic, in moulding the manners and the opinions of hrr sons to this system, every enlightened or liberal mind can feel only disgust at her improvident domestic policy. When the plunder of the world had glittered in thc triumphs of her chiefs when h(psenate adjudicated the fate of kings when the destiny of nations awaited her -nod, the people of Rome had become a nation of beggars destitute of morality and intelligence, property and industry. Not thc ambition of Cesar, but the general practice of every vice which could corrupt the heart, vitiate the mind, or enfeeble t'e body of man, produced thc des truction of Roman liberty. If the Romans had been capable of liberty if a spark of the magnanimity of their ancestors had remained if peblic virtue had not been extinguished by the flow of every vice which could dishonor thc magistrate, or disgrace the citizen, Cesar woirtd-hslve met the fate of Catalinc. When virtue had lost its influence when honor had ceased to attract when patriotism had become the cloak for knavery and thc disguise of selfishness despotism became the only refuge from universal an archv. Nature gifted Cesar with talents rrnnce excited his ambition, his army d- orn :7.od by the plu.-de of Spain and Gaul; afforded tho instrument, and the vi-

of republics. Such is the true moral tr.e history of republics presents to your con sideration Beware tl en fellow cilizc .s, beware that while guarding yourselves against danger from a man who cant.ot now exist among you, you do not encourage the growth of that vice and that corruption, which will assuredly produco him. There is no parallel between thc examples offered by history, and your situation But there is a strong analogy between thc case of your fathers in relation to Washington, and your situation in reference to gen. Jackson. To this wo respectfully desire your attention, and if you find the resemblance clear and distinct, we pray you to imitate the example. Kach appears to have been called into action by the emergencies which rendered their exertions essential to their country's safety and independence. The mind of each seems to have been regulated, poised and matured by lhe dangers and difficulties, the hat Iships and vicissitudes by which they were surrounded. Each, v-ncn urged by duty, ever appears io have ex libited the same manly heedlessness of responsibility. In both you have seen thc same sirict regard for justice, the same excellence ol judgment, firmness in danger, and energy in act, n Each, when covered vvwh laurels gained in defence of his country's independence, has retired from military command to thc shades of piivate life E.ch. first in the hearts of his countrymen, has been called from retirement to the councils of the nation. Each; was ever distinguished by the amenity of his manners, and .ach has ever been regarded with love and ic

verencc by all within his circle of acti n. Washington, the people's choice, was elevated to the Piesidency by thc people the prosperity of the country, proved the wisdom of his administration. Jackson, the people's candidate, is now before ou will you complete the parallel ? As Americans, as citizens of thc West, as Republicans, and as metionly actuated by a sincere love of our common country, of its gloiy, prosperity and happiness we most earnestly recommend to you. fellow citizens, to support th man of tho people, ANDREW JV.KSON.
