Fdlutv Citizens : Vour Delegates, assembled in State Con vention, having deliberated upon the ques tions involved in the approaching stale elec tion, and selected candidates to be presen ted for your suH'rages, deem the occasion appropriate to address you. It is, fellow citizens, a noble privile&o which we enjoy, of selecting by our free suffrages, the men who shall make our laws and administer our government. The mag nitude of the trust committed to us, and the vast and varied interests involved in its discharge, demand a frequent nnd careful review of our principles of political action. That action is, nt this time, limited lo our state election ; but the Slate is a part of ly uiiuuiuu iiiiuuuy, ur iiiiiiicuuy, ny loose ol each ol its constituent sovreignties Wo never act in out political capacity without acting Cor the whole nation, and under responsibilities vast as its great inter ests, its various relations, and its momentous destiny can make them. If we act from wrong principlcsyir adopting right ones, fail to carry them out, we put at hazard the lib erties ol a great people, and betray the in terests or the human race. Our connexion with the other members or the conrctlcracy, and the influence which we exert upon its government, always ofl of C9 c tit ocratlr high moment, arc rendered more important position to uie otner nranencs ol the gov by considerations peculiar to the present , eminent.

A trial or fifty years has shown tho prnc l ileal winkings of this constitution ; and in i no part of it luivo the expectations of it ; rounders bec-t tnoro signally disappointed than in thai w hich relates to iho power tr ! the executive. From the nnltite or their constitution and duties, neither branch or Congress have been found oapahlo of nbus- ing pow er. No motives or ambition could operate on cither ol them, in their corporate capacity : and the individual ambition in ' eilhpr. could find, in the nrilinnrp ilicpLm .... in uiuir minus, no iiiciiiik oi grntiucntion. -Not so has it been with tho executive. As soon as tho office came to be filled by men who felt ihe moving! of selfiish ambition, atitl were restless under the restraints of I he constitution, moans were not wanting to grntirj the one and act at defiance tho other. Constitutional restraints have, under the ad ministrations of such men, been round vain and ineffectual. The power, for example or removal from office, which tlio fnimcrn of the constitution did not deem it necessa ry to restrain ; which they seemed in fact to regard as almost incapable or abmc, ami fiir the exercise or w hich fiir sinister purpo ses, the fitthcr of the Constitution, (Mr. Mail bon)decl'ired the President weuld bo liable to impeachment, has been openly abused for the woist of purposes. The appoint ment of subordinate cxccutiiu officers, -which was, in the contemplation of the frn mcrs of tlie constitution, u high ami deli cate tttist, to be executed for the single purpose of'a faithful execution of the laws, lias been converted into an instrument of executive ainbilion. The check oHIm Sen ate has been rendered almost nugatory by the power which the President has been able to exert over that body by his influ ence, brought to bear upon the election or its members, and upon themselves person ally, after their election. The subordinate executive officers, multiplied to vnst extent and located in every State and Territory, and in almost every town and village of" tho Union, have, by the avowed principle of their appointment and liability to rcmoral. ! been brought into a slate ol'such complete i dependence on the executive, as to tittach j them most strongly to his interests, in mem most sirongiy to ins interests, in op- ' ., .. .

It is against this patty, fellow citizens, that we are contending. We nre fighting the battle of the constitution against the daring encroachments of power.
