DEMOCRATIC MEETING.
Agreeable to previous liotioe, a portion of
the Administration party of the county of
Cobh, assembled in the Court House iti the
town of Marietta on the 15lh inst. On mu*
tionj of William Gujsf, Etq., Cos!. Jesse cT
Karrar was called to the Chair, and James
M. Andersoa appointed Secretary. On mnj \
lion of Col. George D. Anderson, the chair
was instructed to appoint a committee for
tin* purpose of drafting and reporting to this
media*; a pieamble and resolutions,
ing the vie .vs an i sentiments of the meeting;
winch committee consisted of Col. George D. I
Anderson, Kohl. Groves, Robt. Cox, William
G'less, an I 11. R. Foote, Esqrs., who retired
and in a few minutes returned and reported
the following preamble and resolutions, which,
on motion of Mr. Cuyler was unanimously
adopted, to wit:
Whereas tlie political elements of this Re*
public have recently been put in commotion, i
by canvasung (he claims of ihe two j
ing candidates for the office of President of
these United Slates, to wit: Martin V T an ;
ifuren, and William 11. Harrison. Whereas 1
there is a combination ol persons and parties, ;
governed by no principle but a blind and en* ;
thu-’iastic ambition to oppose the present ad” I
mitnstion, and as we believe the true and gei£
time Jeffersonian Republican principles,
attempting by ways unheard of, means
unauthorized and representations and charges
untrue, to exercise an undue influence upon
the free suflcages of the American people.
And whereas, it is at all times, and particu”
iarly in limes like these, the high privilege,
and we believe the bouuden duty of the citi”
zens composing each party, to make an open !
and frank declaration of their views as to men
and measures,
Ist. Re it therefore Resolved, That we
are in favor of strict construction of the Con”
stitulion of the United States, alike opposed
it) tbe exercise of any power, by the Congress
of the United Slates or any other department
of Government, not expressly granted or
palpably implied by the Constitution itself.
2d. Resolved, That as there is no express
or implied power in the Constitution, author
izing the establishment ol United Slates
Ranks; that the exercise of such a power bv
Congress, would he unauthorized, as it would
be unnecessary an I dangerous to the liberties
of the people.
3rd. Resolved, That we believe Congress
bus no Constitutional power,tithtr express or
imp! <d, over the subject of slavery in the
States or Teriitories, and M at any interfer
ence with it in the District cf Columbia,
would be a most fligrant breach of good
faith, equally dangerous to the rights and
liberties of the country, as a palpable want
ol Constitutional power, and that the right of
exclusive legislations, over the district of Co
lumbia, never was intended to embrace the
subj-’ct of slavery.
Till. Resolved, That we are in favor of a
divorce between the Banks and Government,
ami for an independent Sub Treasury.
sth. Resolved, That vve believe Congress
has no Constitutional power to appropriate
money for internal improvements; that the
exercise of such a power would be alike un
constitutional, as it is unjust.
6th. Resolved, That we are opposed to a
protective Tariff, and to the raising a Reve
nue for distribution amongst the States; or!
to the Governments assuming the State debt,
and to the slightest expenditures of the pub
lie revenue, fir the purpose of emancipating
the slaves of the South, and that we believe
the exercise of all, or any o! the above pow
ers by the Congress of the United States,
would be a palpable violation of the Consti
tution of the United Slates.
7ih. Resolved, That we believe the princi-
and doctrines contained in the foregoing
preamble and resolutions were the doctrines
ol Jeflerson and .Madison, and the true Re
publican party; and vve believe them to be
the doctrines of the present Administration
pa rty.
Sifi. Resolved, That we have renewed and
unabating confidence in the ability of Martin
an Boren to devise, and his inflexible firm
ness to maintain and carry out and sustain i
the principles of the great Republican party;
and that we will use all lawful means to se- 1
cure his re-election to the office of President 1
of the United States.
Oili. Resolved further, That the course of
R. JM. Johnson, as Vice President of tiie U.
States, lias met our entire approbation, and j
that we will cheerfully give to him, or to our
distinguished fellow citizen, John Forsyth,
our suffrages for the office of Vice President
of the United States.
10. h. Resolved, Thai the bold, hones’ and
independent stands taken by our liepresenta* i
tives, the lion. Messrs. Colquitt, Black and
Cooper, meets our entire approbation, and
ins sec ired for them our warmest and best j
feelings an i has entitled them to our support I
:it the next election, they having proven |
themselves trust worthy in times of great
political persecution.

VIOLATION’ OF THE RIGHTS OF THE
STAT&S—RESTRICTIONS ON
THE SOUTH.
We annex, from the journals of the Legis
lature of Ohio, the record of the propositions
made and supported by Harrison, directly
(ritching on tlir con-iitqtjotial rights of the
Southern States. The friends of the Federal
candidate have invoked fur him the favor of
the South, because he voted for the admission
of Missouri, when her application was reject
ed. Sympathy lias been besought by the
Southern Federalists, under the pretext that
be was sacrific and in their cause, being rejected
as a Representative in Congress by his con
stituent;;, in consequence ol that vote. Tins
has been shown to be a shadow deceit, as Har
eisow gave the vote after his successor was
| elected. He was not himself a candidate lor
(Congress after Iris vote in that body on the
Missouii question, but became immediately
: thereafter a candidate for the Senate of Ohio,
and was elected—having first conciliated the
| Abolition interest, by declaring that lie joined
!au Abuhtion society at the age of eighteen;
and tad remained irue to its principles from
! trial lime forward. Ti i-i lie produced a certi
i ficatc to prove, and, being elected, gave new
j prom’ in the O.iio L egislature to establish i*, by
; reversing the principle on which he had voted j
! the vear before in the Missouri case.
!. W e give the following extracts from the |
journal of the Legislature of Ohio, to show
j his suddenly changed attitude; and as it in
! volver his own veracity,and that of his friends,
■ who represent him as having always been tire
friend of Missouri qnd of State Rights, as in
volved in the issue with Federalism in Con- j
gress, vve have had the extracts certified by a
justice ul the peace :
January 3. 1820. —(In Senate.) ‘ Mr,
Thompson moved the adoption of the follow
ing preamble and resolution:
* Whereas the existence of slavery in our
country has ever been deemed a great moral
and poiilicu! evil, and in its tendency, directly
calculated to impair our natural character,
| ami materially effect our national happiness;
and inasmuch as the extension of a slave po
pulation in the United States is fraught with
j the most fearful consequences to the perma
nency and durability of our Republican insti
tutions; and whereas the subject of the ad
mission of slavery in the new State of Missou
ri, is at this time before the Congress of the
United States, therefore,
‘ lit solved by the general assembly of the
State of Ohio, That our Senators and Repre
sentatives in Congress be requested to use
their zealous endeavors to prevent the adop
tion of so odious and dangerous a measure.
‘On motion of Mr. Harrison, to strike out
jal after the word ‘ resolved ’ in said resolution,
I and insert in lie.u thereof, the following: ‘ That
j our Senators and Representative be requested
I to use (heir utmost exertions, and take every
i means to prevent the extension ol slavery
’ within the territory of the United States west
; of the Mississippi, and the new States to be
j formed within that territory, which the Con
stitution and the treaties made under it will
allow.’
1 Which question to strike out, and insert
being pul, a division thereof was called for,
and turning on striking out, it was decided in ■
the negati *e.’
General Harrison voting in the affirmative.
Thursday, January , 6, 1820. — 1 The Senate
then took up the amendments made by the .
House of Representatives to the resolution,
I requesting our members in Congress, to op
pose ilie extension of slavery in the territories
of the United States, and the first amendment
being read a3 follows: strike out all said res
olution after the word ‘■Resolved, ’ as follows :
‘by the General Assembly of the State of Ohio,
that our Senators and Representatives in Con
gress, be requested to use their utmost endea
vors, to prevent the adoption of so odious and
dangerous a measure, and insert in lieu there
of, the following:
‘Tiiat our Senators and Represetalives in
Congress be requested to use their utmost ex
ertions, by every constitutional method, to
PREVENT THE ADMISSION OF SLAVERY IN ANY
State or Territory of the Union, where
SL.VVF.RY DOES NOT EXIST, TO PREVENT ITS
FURTHER EXTENSION WHERE T HAS BEEN IN
TRODUCED, AND THAT THEY BE FURTHER RE
QUESTED TO OPPOSE THE ADMISSION OF ANY
State into the Union, unless the further
EXTENSION OF SLAVERY WITIN SUCH STATE BE
EXPRESSLY PROHIBITED.’
‘Mr. Lucas thereupon moved to disagree
to said amendment, which motion was decided
in the affirmative.’
General Harrison ruling in the negative.
1 The second amendment being read as fol
lows: strike out all the preamble, after sla
very in the first line, which part to be stricken
is as follows: ‘in our country has ever been
deemed a great moral and political evil, and
in its tendency, directly calculated to impair
our national character, and materially affect
our national happiness; and inasmuch as the
extension of a slave population in the United
States is fraught with the most fearful conse
quences to the permanency an i durability of
our Republican institutions, and whereas the
(subject of the admission of slavery in the new
State of Missouri, is at this time before the
Congress of the United States. Therefore,’
and insert in lieu thereof the following: ‘in the
United States must ever be regarded as a
moral and political evil, and the extension
thereof, in its tendency, directly calculated to
impair the national character, and materially
effecifthe happiness of tiie people ; and inas
much as the extension of a slave population in
: the new States and terri ories hereafter to he
erected and admitted into the Union, must in
crease nn evil so much to he deprecated,
which, if rot promptly to be guarded against,
will probably, at some not very distant pe
riod, shake the Inundation of our political
fabric. We would, therefore, fondly hope
that the consistency of our national character
will never be tarnished by acknowledging nn
(evil while we tolerate its extension, and whilst
the civilized nations of the icorld, not through
j necessity but aeting on broad principles of
| philanthropy, are laudably uniting to prevent
the extension of traffic in human beings ; that
i the United States icho are so immediately
interested in this import ant'subject-, who under
j stand so well their own rights , and who have
I so much to dread from the extension of slavery
into the interior of this vast Republic , and who
have in their power to prevent the evil, will not
let pass the present opportunity , but will, by an
act of the national councils, guard against the
extension of slavery into any of the States
herealterto be admitted, or into any of the
territories thereof; therefore
‘Thereupon Mr. Lucas moved to disagree
to said second and last amendment of the
House, whi -h was decided in the affi mative.’
I General Harrison voting in the negative.

I, Gilbert L. Giberson, a justice of the
peace in an.l for said county, hereby certify
that l have compared the foregoing pream
ble and resolutions and the votes given hv
I General Harrison upon the same, with the
journal of the Senate of the State of Ohio, be
ing the first session of the eighteenth General
Ass nibly, begun and held in the town of
] Columbus in the county of Franklin, Mon
day, December 9th 1819,and in the eighteenth
year of said State; and I hereby further cer
tify that the said preamble, resolutions, and
j votes, as given by General Harrison upon the
I same, are truly copied from the journal afore*
; sai l.
J Given under mv hand and seal this 10th
I day of June, 1840.
j ‘ [seal,] GIDEON L. GIBERSON.
The point insisted upon by Missouri, was.
admission into the Union ok ‘an equal footing
ui'h the other States Missouri would not
have entered the Union on any other terms,
land this was universally known. And yet,
pending this question, Harrison moved to in
struct the Ohio representation ‘to take every
! means to prevent the extension of slavery irith
in the Territory of the United States irest of
the .Mississippi.’ avid voted for the amend-;
j merit introduced in the House of Represents- j
’ lives, instructing the Ohio delegation in ConC
’ g-css, ‘by an act of the national council-, to
guard against the extension oj’ slavery into
any of the States hereafter to be admitted , or
into the Territories thereof .*
This was in fact but a renewal in the House
of Harrison’s own proposition in the Senate
of Ohio, and if it had parked, and governed
‘the national councils,’ would have been as
decisive against the admission of Missouri as
any act that cou! i have been devised. Mis
souri, as a slaveholding State, would not have
accepted a place in the Union upon tire con
dition that she should exclude emigrants
coming with slaves, and under an act provi
diu2 against ‘the extension of stavery into any
of the States hereafter to be admitted , or into
any of the Territories the-eof.’ The effect of
of this would have been to exclude settlers
from any of the aiaveholding Slates from mo
ving wilh their tamilies into any of the Terri
tories of the Union, (Missouri included.) ft
would have given a monopoly of the new
lands to Northern emigrants, and made all
the new States of such a cast in their political
institutions as to leavejhe Southern States in
a minority in the Senate, and so without a
shield in that body against any encroachment
which might be attempted against their do
mestic institutions, and those rights, as
States, which are guarantied by the Constitu
(tion.
The resolutions introduced and supported
by Harrison, were, therefore, not merely a
restriction upon Missouri, but a restriction in
regard to every Southern State. It would
have excluded the citizens of Georgia, North
Carolina, South Carolina, and other slave
holding States lhat had surrendered their
territory to the United States, from enjoying
the common right of settling the lands which
they had always looked to as the inheritance
of their children, and from which it was never
intended, when tfie lands were resigned to the
Government of the United States, lhat any
portion of the population of the South, white
or black, should be interdicted by any act of
that Government.

Sen. Harrison's Opnions on the subject of Abolition
“TO THE PUBLIC.
Fellow Citizens.— Being called sud
denly home to attend my sick family, I have
but a moment to answer a few calumnies
which are in circulation concerning me.
“ I am accused of being friendly to slavery.
From my earliest youth to tire present mo
ment I have been the ardent friend of human
liberty. At the ape of eighteen I BECAME
A MEMBER UF AN ABOLITION SO
CIETY, established at Richmond ; the object
of which was to ameliorate the condition of
slaves, and procure their freedom by every
legal means. My venerable friend Judge
Catch, of Claremont county, was also a rnem
j her of this Abolition Society, and has lately
‘given me a certificate that I was one. The
obligation which I then came under I have
faithfully performed. * * *
