Nurtured and brought tip as we have been, in the I admonition of the Republican State Rights doctrine • —in a contest in which ibeir preservation is sought i I on the otte hand by the lovers of Cdnstitutional Lib j erty, and threatened on the other by the renewed as j saults of re-animated Federalism, it may be easily I conjectured on which side we are to be found. We j aspire to belong to the Republican State Rights Party. I professing such principles as sustained the Fathers of that faith in ’9B and ’99-as bore that party in Geor gia triumphant, through the political conflicts of'2s and 26. and to which it has not proved recreant in ’32 and’33 We claim to be. disciples of the School of Jefferson, as taught in the Kentucky and Virginia Resirltitiorts. But professions of rfcptibliSrnism have become mere cant, when every party lays claims to that title, from the Union Democratic Republican par !ly of Georgia, up to the great National Republican party of the Union, and back totlie remnant ot the j party which repneedin the subsequent election of a ' Sedition law Judge, as the triumph of (be Democru/tc i llepublican party of New England! Equally vague is ; the pretence to belong to the State Rights Parly, since many of those who profess to be State. Rights adher ents, deny to the States all other rights, but those of remonstrance and submission. Stillmore uncertain i i» the profession of belonging to the Jeffersonian ; School, since many who pretend to be followers of that Patriot, publish to the world, the preposterous, the humiliating notion, that the labours ot his whole life w ere intended to prove that the States have ordj’ the right of petitioning for a redress of grievances--of remonstrating against unconstitutional Federal Legis lation, and liuaHy -whenall other remedies fail” of - ——-protesting ! ! !
