The Committee on the State of Republic have had before it the political condition of the country, both in its general and State re lations, and have deemed it necessary to sub mit the views entertained in the following pre amble and resolutions to the General Assem bly, and to ask for them its concurrence. The Committee believe that recent events develope an organized and systematic de termination. of which significant indications were atforded at the late extra session of Con gress, to discard the principles and policy proper to lie observed in the administration of the General Government. Additional acquisitions of power, not con* tempUtco or designed by the frameni of tlie Constitution, repudiated by the Republicans of ’98 and ISUO and wholly unnecessary to the vigor and efficiency of the administration of the Government, are avowed as among the cherislu'd objects of the new political reform. To such an administration of the General Government, the Republican party have been opposed from the adoption of the Constitu tion, and time and experience have added in numerable proofs of the correctness of their principles, and the importance ol their contin ued ascendancy to secure tlie saicty and integ rity of the American Union, and the sov ereignty of each of the Slates of which it is composed. Although at different periods in the history of the country, their principles have received temporary checks, very soon the recuperative energies of a people determined to be free, have surmounted the barriers and given them success. Ambitious and designing men have sometimes risen to power, and, by. torturing the Constitution, have enacted laws reckless of the provisions or prohibitions of that sacred instrument: but tlieircareer has been limited; ttieir obnoxious measures indignantly condem ned ; their partial or.d unequal enactments repealed; and tlie Government transferred from federal to republican hands.

And when he hears how well our people are get ting on, may he it will put him up to doing something.

He’s a real gentleman, I can tell you. AVhen 1 gave him the acorn, he said he should set a great store by it; that no char acter in ancient or modern history he admired so much as he did onr Washington; be said he’d plant it in his palace garden with bisowh hand, and he did it—for l see him with my own eyes: He wanted to ask me so much about our schools and railroads, and one thing a good one, and he could make money fast, lie came home sober every night, and on Sat urday received his wages, and bought a barrel of flour, a ham, and some groceries, and so on ; and got them on the dray and sent them home.

She told tlie drayman there was some mistake about it—it did not belong she had never had a barrel since they had been married—always had to buy their flower by the sixpence worth, or shilling’s worth ; the flour certainly could not be for her. While they were talking, the husband came up, a:>d said she. “Husband, here’s a man says this barrel of flour and these groceries are for us.” “ So they are, and I have bought them ail with tbe twenty-five cents you gave me last Monday iiiglit. 1 joined the Washing ton Temperance Society with that twenty five cents; we shall have flour bv the barrel after this instead of by the sis-pence worth, or the elex’ett-penny bit’s worth. What, said Mr. A'ickers, do you think were eminent will endnre, whett he remembers how short lived hasbeen the domination of as sumed and constructive powers, and how soon those principles which are based upon their limitation, and which recognize the Con stitution as their only legitimate source, have been re-established by the triumphant verdict of the American people. “Eternal vigilance,” it is truly said, “is the price ot liberty and it is only by the most un ceasing zeal and laborious industry, rousing the latent republicanism of the land, and giv ing vigor to every movement, llud so many and such signal victories have been achieved by the Republican party, enabling them to de tect and expose the insidious efforts of their opponents, first to mislead, and then to betray tlie.(icupte.intu itiesuppuii uf measures in di rect hostility to their own rights, and calcula ted to devolve the most perilous effects on the integrity and independence of the country. The Committee believe that a crisis has again arrived sufficient to awaken the unxie- ty, excite the solicitude, andsliwtllate the ex-: ertions of every lover of free institutions and. guarded limitations of power : ,and it is only hy sounding the alarm in season, and appriisng the people of the approaching and apprehen ded danger, that we may expect to arrest the evils which threaten the republic, from: the adoption of system of- measures at vxriauce - with the constitutional policy of the country, and fatal to the essential principles of our civil institutions. A new Administration, attaining power by the most lavish promises of economy, retrench ment and reform,is scarcely in possession of tlte ensigns of command, when its movements attract attention, and are sufficiently marked to^afford cause for alarm, to all acquainted with the elevated principles upon which the Government was founded, and competent to take an enlarged view of its political relations. The convocation of Congress, and the mo tive alleged for the act, that of supplying an exhausted treasury, and tlte immediate intro duction and adoption of measures tending to defeat the pretended pur|>ose for which il was convened, hy draining (he treasury ; furnish abundant proof to every man not blinded by party zeal, or dazzled with the lust of pow er, ofasecret and premeditated design to consum mate a system of most objectionable me as ores, of which the people had roecived no notice and that were carefully concealed during the progress of the Presidential canvass. £io more conclusive evidence is requisite to estab lish the mischievous views of the dominant party, and their full appreciation ofthe odious and unpopular character of the measures they intended thus surreptitiously to fasten aa the country, than tlie particular period selected for thecouvocation of the late extra session^-at the close of one o( the most animated political conflicts ever witnessed, and before time wus given to allay the had passions it had -engetj- dirred.
