‘ ’ Mn. Enrrori-—A correspondent of yotirs
last week called attention to the loco foco reso
lutious of the Darien Convention, signed by
John Brown as Chairman, ézc. These resolu
tion: deserve a more extended notice. Al pres
cut I have only time to call the attention cfthe
public to one ofthent. which is in these words:
Resoivecl. That we considerthe appropriatipn
of $10,000, made by the last Legislature. ..or
‘sectional purposee—-and also the altttftlllflilltnn
of$5,000, to aid in getting up a high school for
the pretended purpose of iuanufacturing Corti-
mon School teachers. to he a wasteful. ltnjtlst
robbery ofthe public treasury.
I have but little to say with regard to the first
clause ofthe resolution. The grant to the Wes-
leyan University, to which allusion is here thus
tintirlly made, was in accordance with the prin-
ciples ofequal and exact justice. Yale College
' ltad been most liberally endowed, and \Vashing-
ton College materially assisted. and it was but
justice to the \Ve.~;leyan University and its found-
ers, that they should also be assisted. But asl
jam confident the members of the Convention
had _no serious intention of attempting to make
:polit'rcal capital otit of this, and subjecting them-.
. selves to the exposure of their owti double-
._dealing in former years, with regard to the Uni-
versity, I leave the subject.
The last clause ofthe resolution I tnust con-
fess I read with astonishment. It is entirely
and utterly false. I did not expect to be aston-
ished, after what has taken place here and else-
where, at any ofthe Protean shifts of locofuco-
llsrri, but no one could have supposed that 21 C00-
vention of the party would have deliberately
adopted and published for fact a falsehoodso .
glaring as this. No such resolution was passed
by the legislature--no such appropriation “'88
made. A resolution was introduced, based on
-the offer of sortie gentlemen to furnish half of
the requisite funds if the other half could be had
from the state. It was lost, and no appropria-
tion was made for the purpose. Were Messrs.
Brown and Co. ignorant ofihe truth ofthe easel
“(hail the intelligent and selected ofthe party
in this district. setting in judgment on the acts
of the legislature of their own'state,and yet iguo
rant ofthese acts? The venerable editor ofthe
Sentinel, tou—the “ Sir Oracle,” who “ nursed
'repuhlieanistn with his first breath under
hington" some two or three .3; twenty years
since, in the highlands of Scotland—-to publish
the same—and all ignorant of the truth of the
matter’! \Vas this so’! Or is the other and the
only alternative true, that they Icnoteingly and
wilfully declared and published a deliberate
falsehood?
Feflow Citigens, are these the guides you
follow’! Is it that such men as John Brown may
grow rich in a sinecure Post Office, and at the
same time outrage your understandings and
your principles of‘ honesty, by liumbnggery and
deceptiou—that you support them and the
party’! Have you grown so indiflbrent to
the existence of public and private integ-
rity. that yoii may thus be influenced--that
y"ou"can listen to nothing but :lie syren song of
locofocoism 3 Is there nothing in detected false-
hood—iu exploded hutnbug--in broken promis-
es-—in notorious _ corruption—in a wantonly
vitiated currency—in a loss of private enter-
prise and credit-_-and in the bankruptcy of a
shin-plaster-issuing government, to lead you to T
reflect, and arouse you to action. Are yo.u wil-
ling to entrust, for another period of four years,
your constitution, once glorious, but now viola-
ted io spirit and disregarded—that currency on
'hich your future prosperity depends, which ten
years since was a model, and now is a disgrace

has been the crowd, all have been fed-
