Give back their cradle shout:

No refuge from the ‘withering curse
Of God and human kind!

To the free sun and air of God! _
No longer dare as crime to brand
The chastening of the Alinig-hty’s hand.

, RDCKAWAY, L. I. in sig/it of the wreck
of the Two Patties. August, 22. 1837. E
To the People of the United States in general,
and tliesouud Democratic Family tripar-
.t‘iczllar.,
" ‘Fellow Citizens—Ii1_ my lastl tell’d you there
-was no way of giiting along o_ut of our present
itroubles till we‘ got rid of the cause that put us
-into troubl'e——‘anil that was party management.
- I mean ‘that’ kind of party irianageirient that.
. once gittin into power, continues to keep power,
by turnin all kindsyof public measures riglitinto
their own mill. VVhen the water don’t rtiii
clear, it is a pritty sure sign the old spring wants
'cleauing out, and I hope every man will look
well tothis pint, or else all our work is good for
nothing.‘ I know it is a pritty touglijob to upset
a party that has got hold ofthe biggest eend of
"the stick: but it must be done, or Willi them
, _ve_ry sticks ‘ we the people’ gave them,-tliey will
crack" our crowns. So there are no two ways
‘about it—-we must teach our public servants to
be content with the wages and the honor of
oli:i_.cc. which we give ’em, and to execute the
.léWs we have made for ourowii good—and we
must teach ’em, too, that if we find any
snookin round, and planning to keep their places
by iisingpower, for their own party purposes,
which belong alike to all parties and all classes,
then they mustexpect trouble—tl«iey mustchange
their places. \Vill any man tell me :l;:.t ill‘:
country would be in the state it is, if folks in
ofiice. for the last five or eight years. had gone
accordin to law '! I don’t believe a word ou’t.
for I know to the contrary. I, for one, am
willing to run the risk of going to the Devil, ifit
-cis accordin to law—but I won’t go one step that
-way agin the law; and I don’t mean to let any
man or any person drive me that way, unless he
can show law for it. I am for the Constitution
‘and the Laws—and if we can't go accordin to
that rule-;__then Isay let every man up stakes
and go to Turkey or to China——he will be better
off there -1 Jan liere—for if we once git our Con-
'stitutioh and our Laws’out of joiiit-—the hull
consarn will go all to smash—and he who hap-
- pens tohave the strongest-and longest arm will
. grab most. ‘
‘ When I was trav’ling round ‘solitary and
alone,’ as Mr. Benton says—over that___bea_uIifiil
’ .....n~..i mparii," tor]. nave been pritty
much all over that country)—l used to stop
sometimes on the top of a hill and look aboui
and say to myself, ‘ my coiisliens,’ says I,“wliat
acouniry this is,’—ihere were wide and long
ranges of beautiful meadow land all around-—
and rivers and streams" streakin aboiit—and
some on ’em running head-long down the side
of hills—-arid there warn’t‘ a cow on them.
pastures—not a mill or a factory on them streams,
not a road—or a canal, anti not a lious'e—all in a
state of stark naked natur—-and all‘ in the "finest
climate in the woild ; jist such a country, ifyou
could put it into one of our States, anipman
who owned 50 acres ou’t would come plagy nigh
havin a town plot or a factory or mill site, or a
canal or a railroad, on his f'arm—and every
part ou’t would be alive with a happy and pros-
perous people. Instead ‘of this, what do you
see in that fine country’! Any man who wants
to know,’ let him go and look for‘ himself-and
the only advicel have to give him is, not to
take any thing along with him worth stealing;
and if he has an extra life like a cat, that will
stand stabbing let him take that along with him,
for he .W,'l,lI.want it; they kill every thing there

Irwsnsltl
. . ' ‘ ‘
ing—except Bank paper rrfoney ; “they won’t
steal that. foifthey d0I']'tiI_{lIIOW what it is ; they
go for hard currency entire. "I‘hey go the Gin-
eral’s doctrine about money lmatters, up to the
hub ; they keep bank matters and state matters
entirely separate, and so wide apart you can't
see nary one on "em. I ask’d some on ’em there
why they did not go to work and earn an honest
livin ‘and put on ‘ decent clothes, and feed their
starvin fainilies—but they said there was no use
. in trying that, for as soon as any man got a lee-
, tle forelianded in the world, all their property
was taken away from ’em "to feed the sogers, or
pay .taxes——or was stolen. Well, says I, why
dou‘tyo‘u take the law on ’em then? Law?
What Law’! There ain't no Law here, but
jist such law as ‘the Government’ chuses to
make-and ‘the Governineut’ has got all the
sogers and all the office holders on their side,
and they outnumber us two to one. Well,
thinks I, as far as that goes that sounds demo-
cratic at any rate ; but shows the diflerence be-
tween a ‘Government democracy’ and a ‘ Peo-
ple’s democracy ’ And this put me to thinkin
considerable how it comes aboutin the course of
time that :1 Government can manageto work
alon'g.‘fir'st with power granted bythe people for
the good ofthe hull people and then sometimes
with a leetle glory (for Spain has had its glory
too. and is now so full on’t; there ain't no ves-
sels in port, or industry in the coiintry—there
ain’t no room for anything but rags and misery.)
‘ and then again, with a leetle party manage-
ment, contriving to bring things so as to make
power beget power, and smash every thing that
dares to talk agiu the party that has the control.
And what is the consequence? All the laws
that were made for the good of the hull people
are put aside, and only sich laws are made as
suit the party in power—that party has got all
the olIices—and gotall the hard money—and
they won’t allow any other kind of money ——they
won’t encou rage cotnirieice,.or trade, or manu-
facturing—because they know that trade. and
commerce and manufacturing would create a
power right off that would upset their apple-
cart. These callings would at once create a
credit money mix’d up with coin. and every man
of good character would come in for a share on’t,
and borrow upon his credit a leetle somethin
till his labor would lift him out ofthe dirt and
rags lie is now in. Trade and commerce, too,
~ shiirpcns the wits of folks generally. and makes
’em keep a sharp eye on the law makei‘s——and
that don't suit some folks. I have always
noticed myself. and I have hearn tell ever since
I was a boy—and what leetle I have read of
wlirzi is called history says so too-—tIiat no
country can be free and happy without good laws,
made expressly for all classes alike—then all
classes prosper—for all are dependent on each
other--a farmer raises wheat, and pork and
beef-—the merchant takes these to all parts of
~ creation to the best market, and brings home
what is most wanted in turn. The ship-builder,
builds ships for the market», and that gives em-
ploy to rope-makers and blacksmiths and sail-
makers and ' cartmen—and so on through all
branches ofmeclianics. Foreign trade and home
trade all goes on, one working into the other-
merchandize, and folks in steamboats, and on
rail-roads, kee’p movin about the country——all
busy, all happy, all prosperous. But when, to
suit some party purposes. any man, or set of
men, in office or otit of officc, finding some of
their measures ain’t likely. to suit any particular
class of folks, begin to throw mud at ’em, and
‘ try t.o set up other folks agin ’em, depend ou’t
there is mischief biewin, and the sooner it is
checked the better. What is ‘sass for the goose
ought to be sass for the gander.’ It may suit a
party, to-day, to abuse the merchants and men
in trade, and smash ’em all to flinders—-and to-
morrow, it may suit the same party to smash
the farmers—and the next, the mechanics, and
so on. Ifit is right in one case it is right in all,
but my notion is it ain't right in nary case--and
I, for one, won’t vote for it. A man who builds
a ship for the merchant has as good a claim on
the protection of the laws as the man who
labors at any other honest callin, I don’t care
in what. \Vill any man pint out in the Consti-
cord in the great national family?
A good deal is said about some private letters
from the Gineral at the I-Ierrnitage——that he
wrote to the Globe man at \Vashington. I
liain’t had time yet to read ’em, but if they are
what I hear it-.-ll’d on. I don’t believe the Gin-
eral ever wrote ’em——autl if he did, it don’t
amount to nothing. \Vliat a man writes afore
he is Presidentand What he writes after he has
quit that office amounts pritty much to the
same thing. The Gineral wrote a very good
letter once t.o Mr. Monro—but it did riot come to
any good. One man’s letter, then, is jist as
good as any other,man’s letter. Take Gineral
Harrison now for i'nstance—lct him write a let-
ter—I don’t think it would make the day longer
OI'.SllOI'l8l‘; but make him President, and then
all his lettei's—~so long as he was President,
would be considered by many as very impor-
taut-and some would think the world was jist
beginning, and some that it was jist ending.
This shows, then, there must be something in
the nlii:e—-it may be the ‘$25,000 a year, and a
big house free of rent, and the rightof noii;inat-
ing folks to oliice—-or somethin else, I don’t
k now what—but there is sumelliin that makes his
izotions better or sounder than before. VVell then,
when he quits office I don't see why he should
take all the mother wit he found there along
with him; he Should leave ii wiicrt: he found it,
for the benefit ofthe next. I ain’t one oftliose
kind offolks that think the world is coming to an
end by the notions of any man—who ain’t
President—wliether written before or artcr-—my
letter then is jist as good as liisen, and I don’t
know but it is a leetle better, for I liaiu’t got no
party notions to sarve and no mistakes to kiver
up. .
Capt. Jumper, too, I heard, has been writing
a letter to the editor of “ The Saco Gazette"-
about“ TiieTwo Pollies” getting ashore.-—I
understand he lays it all to the crew, and winds
up by saying that arter all there is no safety in
any kind of vessel, and goes again the lzull
scrape on ’em, and advises that the Government
should cut adrift from every thing that floais——_
that all vessels are dangerous—apt to leak_--apt
,0 ,,m,..__.....i ..,.. .o gu asiiure. ‘rue tact is. the
old captain never did know’ much about naviga-
tion—unless he had land in siglit—or could reach
it with a lead-line—but he thought he did—and
the “ Two Pollios” tells the rest ofthe story-—
and it is pretty much so with the General’s Bank-
ing and money iiotions—he, like Capt. " Jum per,
made a mistake-—and to kiver It up turns to and
blows up the hull busiuess.- Well, what does it
amount to? ,
.hiI look upon u.President‘or any other man in
high office, jist asl look on a juryman. What
his notions ore afore he takestlie oath, and what
his notions are arter the verdict is brought. in ain’t
nigh so important as when he is in the jury boa:-—
he is responsible then-and then only. If ‘ he
has notions contrary to the nature of the oath he
is obleged to take, and goes on a jury with two
faces—-he may escape here, but he will want
'Il0l’6 than two faces /ierearter. .A President in
ofiii.-e IliIS,n()l]lIl’l to do with what liehad said
afore he took the oath ofoflice-—and folks liadn’t
ought to keep twitin him about it; it would be
a pretty. matter for a lawyer in Court. when
pleadin his case to ajiiry, to put his eye on some
juryman and say. ‘.‘ Mr. So-and-so, you remem-
ber last October, when youand I wastalkin over
this matter, you said then my side of the ques-
tution, or in any law, the right of sowing dis-_
tion was right-.--now do you see that you stick to ‘
it.” ?I don’t know what would be done in these
parts——-but I dont’ know a man in all Downing-
ville that would not Iiop out of at jury-box. 30:1
thrash any lawyer for saying so, ifthe case warn t
more than for ten. dollars—and ’Squire Joslln
would lend him a hand if he had to ajurn the
Court forit—-and is a President’s oath no lighter
than ajuryman’s oath ?. — -
But I find I am away offfrom wliatI wanted
to put into this letter, and so I’ll put II in my
next. I see no way tho’ of gittin at what. I am
arter till folks can look at things straitin the
face without any party squinting. 3f_l(l I Wlll ‘hen
show them why our country is not like Spai_n and
other countries. But if we‘don’t lookout sharp
we shall soon be exactly like them. The next
thing is to show my plan for gettingthe Two
Pollies afloat again. I think I can do this with-
out asking any appropriation from Congress; all
I want is, for Congress to give me the liberty to
irymy plan, and ifI succeed, let _me have a
patent for it. She must be got ofl this session ‘at
any rate, or I won’t answer for consequences.
I don’t mean to offer any notion that I don’!
thinkis sound at both eends; and I hope that as
I ain’t been many rods.wide ofthe mark in the
way ofguessing at what was to happen, that all
on you will keep an eye to what I sliall_say. and
have a leetle patience, and let me say it in my
own way. I'll square thelog afore I have done
with it; but we have got to score the bark off
first, and draw the chalk lines, ‘or else we shall
run the risk of doing what old,Deacon Knowles
did when he thought he could square 3. door-post
as well as a-carpeiater-he took a stick oftiomber
two-and—twenty inches and three quarters in di-
ainetei—.—-(and pretty much like the Gineral’s ex-
perimentin banking)—Iie hewed and scored and
diib’d without rule or chalk-line, till there ivarn’t
