In 1.8-Ma, while the issues of "36 and ’4«O

which the Whig party then took‘. VVe

reflect; we prophesied all that has since
taken place; we called upon every_lover
of his country, of freedom, of humanity,
to aid us in frustrating that infernal

and Silas Wright, aided by some twenty
thousand political abolitionists, gave the
vote of New York to .Iames—K. Polk to
annexation, to war, and to slavery.

_.it as a fixed Whig principle, that the
President in carrying out the require-
'ments of the Constitution, was not to be
guided solely by his own understanding
‘of that instrument, but by the preceding
determinations of the legislative and ex-
ecutive branclfes of the government ac-
quiesced in by the people and by the de-
_cisions of our highestjudicial tribunal. We
,m,ade.the President the subject of the law,
,not the law the subject of the President.
.()_n this issue, with these principles we
-‘risked the contest.
' i "Let us now return, for a moment, to
the present time. The administration of
James K. Polk is drawing to a close, but
during its continuance, executive power
has attained a height which it had never
before reached. Twice has the will of the
people been nullified,first by the veto oftbe
,-French Spoliation Bill, 8; next by the veto
,of the River and Harbor Bill. The exec-
_'iit,ive controls the public purse; the Ex-
ecutive commences an unnecessary war ;
-the Executive levies duties in Mexican

and Mr. Pollr’s successor is now to be
elected. The great Whig party has again
raised its banner and on its broad fdlds,
blended with the stars and stripes, are yet
emblazoned the -principles ‘of ’4-1.:
pcace with all the world, no more annex-
ation, no more slave states or slave terri-
tory. 4

principles for which the Whig party is
now contending. That the Executive

glorious task before you. It can be done;
if you are true to your oaths as freemen,
true to yourselves, true to your country,
it will be done, But if you are discon-
tented;and dissatisfied because the Wislle-S

good, if you ncglect the ballot ‘box or
throw away your votes upon a third par-
ty candidate; upon your head he the
consequences! You may, if you choose,

nearer to the right. Now, suppose that a
number of men, belonging to this latter
party, should reason with themselves in
this way. “ Our party is not absolutely
perfect ; true it is much, very much better
than that which we oppose, but it is not
perfect after all; we must have perfec-
tion ; we will not therefore vote for the
candidate whom our friends have nomina-
ted; we will have one of our own, and a
platform of our own, both of which shall
be free from error, and on that platform
will we stand, and_ for that candidate will
we vote. True, we«cannot elect liim,.we
are very well aware of that, and we know
also that by withholding our support from
the ticket formed“b'y our friends, we do
much to forward, if we do not insure the
success of the party which we now op-
pose, which we believe entirely wrong in
principle and extremely dangerous when
in power ;’but that is no concern of ours.”
Does not every one see the utter fallacy
of such reasoning? But suppose that
these persons should go farther and say
“ on the whole we will not make a nomi-
nation of our own; a portion of our old
opponents have become discontented with
their party and have put forward a sepa-
rate candidate, we think we will vote for
him; it is true that all the objections to a
nomination of our own exist in this case,
and others besides; it is impossible that
the individual, for whom we now intend
to vote», should be elected ; and more than
this, he entertains, and would act upon,
ever political opinion. ag=iLnsi \\'liil'.l)..\"+.i
-we" ‘otv"”ii'IilE with one exception; he
has very lately professed to have changed
his views in a solitary paiticular, and al.
though ourgold friends are entirely right
upon that subject and their candidate de-
clares his intention‘ of leaving the matter
where it belongs, to Congress, yet we
must vote for some one -.\ ho will say that
he thiuksjust as we do about‘ it; we don’t
care whether we elect him or not; in-
deed, from present appearances, we are
satisfied that our voting for him, will be
the most effectual method of elevating to
power our old opponents, who, upon this
subject as. upon every othi-r are utterly
and daiigeroiisly wrong.” Is it snf”
ticently severe language to say simply

not criminall We do not, we cannot be-
lieve that Whigs will be found arguing in
in this way. Are we not right in this
belief, Republicans of the Twelfth Dis-P
trictl as any one of you forgotten

184-0 and the signal rebuke which the
people of America administered, to THAT
MAN in that memorable contest I Has

ation, war, conquest, and slavery, and the
MAN who, by giving the vote ofl\'ewYm-It

to produce these consequences, entirely

your reach, to strain after an imaginary

Whigs of the, Twelfth District! shall
it be so with any one, even one of you?
We think we know you better; that now,
as ever, when the day of trial comes, you
will be found at your posts, unwavering,
undaiinted, unseduced. The eyes of our
friends every where are turned anxiously
to old Connecticut and to you. The
strongholds oflocofocoism are broken up;

Those who do not know the character of
Mr. Bnrle-igh’s eloquence, will get it correct
idea of it from the following specimen taken
from an eastern paper, and siinilnr to much he
said liere——-

“ This is the ma n-—tbis coarse, reel-less, PRO-

not cure to conceal our utterlori_thing of this,
and our contempt of those who make it. It in-
volves as rank atheism as was ever spawned
from Hell, and as consummate folly as ever
cursed the earth.”

Citizens of Connecticut, is this the kind of
language to be applied to an eminent citizen ‘of
the country I Is General Taylor coarse .7 He
is plain, rough-— was he ever uncivil? Is he
reckless .7 His whole conduct through life has
been prudent and above reproach. Has he
