Sow, as then, a fierce conllict is waged between
he sovereignly 0t the people on the one side, and
lie powers of intrigue, ch cane and corruption on
tie '< for. With this conviction impressed upon
>itr min Is, w« cannot hesitate a moment as to the
tde which t- tgb t be espoused. The ascemian
- . '“e popular will must be maintainedr or
, ' ,!l an e; »t once, of our boasted discovery

>> e deem it unnecessary to enlarge on the nu
merous disqualifications of Mr. Adams, to preside
1 l*ie °f blale* When we regard the tickle*
C"S ol his poittical faith—-he changes through
, ! , " baa passe.l — th* person'll eotisequtnces
riilcll have followed; and the complexion of the
reed which he now professes, it is iu.possible for
» to believe that soundness of judgment and in
egri’y oi heart are united hi his character._
* inebever quality may be assigned him, it must
e given at toe expense, and wish the abandonment
t tt.e other. We are of course, neither prepared
0 listen to his counsel, nor to follow ins march,
“•pressed l'‘-h ‘be Jeepest veneration for those
octrines which have so Jong composed the poHti
al creed of our state, communion with .itin,
vould denote the protest apostacy, and the most
taring Ueriliction of public princtj le and duty in
s. 1 he truth of this remark in its general aspect
1 admitted even by those who assemble amongst
s to espouse his cause, and to promote his re
lectiou to office. He may read in the very name
rhiclt they give to their meetings, the wtakaeas
i their faith; and in their guarded, measured ex
ressions, the little love vvl.ich s felt for him at
carl. It is notorious that the only hope of
allying Virginia aiouud his slandatd, constats in
oustng the passions, the fears, and the prtjidiCCs
if the p lop.e, and directing them against h s rival,
fence the railing against him as dangerous to the
iberties of his country—hence the wretched ef
orts to cast a shade over the brightest actions oi
us life; to disparage his intellect, and to dim (he
ustre of his inotai worth.
n a Granger were to come amongst us, ert
og to ibe clamor xth.ch pervade* tbe country, a
;ain-t lire “military chieftain” he would natural
y conclude that Gen. Jackson waetho unity can~
ii lute, and about to be borne into office auiui-t
he bayouel* of the eoidory. How remit* from
iirt actual situation! broui the commencement t>i
he last Contest to the present period, he haa been
tmphatically the candidate of the People. Kn
ivened no dotbt by gratitude, their collective »a<
;ncry, which seldom etrs, firs, sought him au.itJ
Itose calm retreats into which he tiad voluntarily
etned, alter the tcenes of his glory had passed
iway—Their voice alone brought hint upon the
•tage, and he tvas borne into the II u»e datin ’ (lit
an contest upon their shoulders.
Though the glory of his maitial exploit may
impait a peculiar lustre to his name—Though ih.
magnitude ol his patriotic services may give udJj
lional energy lo his support, slid, it i., not true
lhat these constilu e the sole or even chief gri until
of his sireng h. It is conceded by all who know
him, tii’i in point of native strength and vigor
his intellect is of the highest it ler— that his mint
H etiCowm With I Ire keenest sagacty and l!i<
soundest judgment- ihn he is excelled by none ii
that deep and extensive arrpiujulaiice with mei
nntl tilings, winch, more tiian any tiling else, i.
the distinguishing characteristic, of a vigorous anr
usetul understanding. With these are tin ted, i
jovj of country, anient, re?tle«s and indefatigable
and a II nun elevation and purify ol ti.und:
pto-ed to lie beyond the reach of temptation am
utterly impregnable to corruption. The,e tonsti

Hon if those pillars, by whicii fits popularity t
supported.
While we thus deny that the popularity of tien
Jackson, in the present contest, re-ts wholly or u
chitf, U| id his military services a.,d renown, w <
beg leave to protest, in tiie strongest terms, a.
gainst the doctrine, wiiicii is so industriously cir
ciliated, that on account of these lie sh ,ul 1 be le
yarded as a dangerous man, and that his elecliot
would aflord a precedent, Unpio pi lions to the ctvt
liber til’s of his counify. Monstrous pervcsion o
reasoi ! He saw the rights of his couniry in
fringed; her borders invaded; her territory laic
waste; her armies for a time discotulied; gloom
and despondency beginning to settle upon the pub.
lie mind—With the noblest niofitej which car
ac.uate the heart of man, he flew to her support
covered her Kagles with glory, and itrrurd her
from danger and disgrace— Therefore, bis soul i
poi«oned by ambition and pants to over urn the
laws, tits constitution and liberties ol h,s couritiy,
ll is impossible to tin»gme a case where the pre
mises and conclusions are more completely at va>
fiance— where tie allegation and testimony are
moro thoroughly al war.
Passing by the iMutf which tins doctrine offr-p
to the patriotism and good sense of the people
which plainly says to them, you are incapable e:.
flier from a want of capacity or devotion to free
dom, to select your President, we will dwell foi

commission; it this shall pursue them in time o
1 peace as a stigma ami a reproach; if, wha’eve
maybe the brilliant character ol iheii t1relensi"ns
1 tins alone shall doom them to undergo a s rt c
^ banishment from tiie rpliere of civil elevation, who
wiih these disheartening anticipations, will b<
* . found in time of war to court the tainted ami sus
I ‘‘Ctcd pre-eminence of a gallant and distinguishes
chieftain. 'J he rialural consequence of fostering
these ill-judge 1 and misguided feelings, will be,
> lh.it the finest geniuses ol" iheir time will he lost
T > their country, at those trying seasons when tlieii
■ i services will be most oeedetL.
j It, unfortunately, the leasuning which we have
ju-t urged, should prove fallacious, then the hue
, ; policy of tiie d ictii.ie will be still more con*
spicuuus in ano'her point of view. Ail aigue
that the excessive growth of the military vpitit,
should be repressed in a fiee s' ate, and that it
should be circumscribed within as moderate limit*
i as n ju-t demand for its services will pertni'. To
i e . 81 is «ot the wisest course that a disiin
I gutshed and popular commander should be lured
,av. ay from the head of his army, as soon as the
necessity for b:s services ha* ceased? By placing
ijum on a perfect level writ the rest of society;
by holding cut to him equal opportunities wi'h
, others, of advancing in the path of civil preferment,
i la most elleclual encouragement will be given
him to merge the character ol the soldier in that of
| the citizen. A proper direction will be thus giv
en loins ambition, and it will be disarmed at once
ol every dangerous dfs’re. JBat, if a different
i j'Oiicy shall be pursued; it obscurity cr bis svvoiil
i s‘‘"'n 1,8 the oa!y alternatives set befrre him. Ilieu
, may it be justly feared that the latter will be em
ploye I to carve his way to that eminen.-e, which
• open to every other citizen, while it is barred
j against id to.
It is extreme folly to contend that a •* MiliUrv
; -hietuiu,” ought to rest satisfied with the honors !
; v”"c“ ‘lH *'vord has purchased. The desire of I
i Climbing to the highest elation, and gathering the
, tust honors ot his country, cannot with any rea
son be supposed, to be less ardent in his breast,
I , ** ,n t,jat o{ a demagogue or cunning di
iplomatist. .Nor is it at all likely to be b.cked
' by fewer qualification*. All history attests the
fact, that those who have been most distinguished
iu war, have also proved on trial the most pro*
found and ekiilful statesman. There is no rta-on!
whatever to b.-lieve, that tiie ambition of a uiili- I
i»ry leader in the abstract is less generous, disinte- •
re.-Ud a. d 1 <yfcl, than tint of any other citizen.
*" ambition is a quality neither to be de
precated nor despised It is the di's.ingui-htng pro
pnety of every .K-b'eit gifted mind. It is the source
of e< cry thing, great and glorious in the world I
and neuher can, nor might io be. erad-cited from !
(he nattne ot man. Let all incentives to evil be j
1 w,tlib*dJ Jet it not be inflamed by uni ist treat- !
I merit; Let not its sensibilities be woundcl by ca- ‘
lumny and detraction; let it have fair play; room io I
exeit its salutary vigour, and to turn its energies
into a proper channel,and its spirit will become
identified with the good, instead of the optieesion
of ma..kind.
Wi ll regard <o the particular acts of General
Jackson winch have teen bo violently availed
j we view w ill extreme regret, the total departure
of nio opponents f,oui those stern *„) impartial
rules of inV45-U.gallon which are g laranteed by the
sijirit ol our laws to the meanest and mo-t abject

walk With iilfii through the whole scene, and to
bear htm not only unhurt, bn triumphant, out of
the hands of hie enemies? Shall we he told that
the Ilepre-euU.ivee of the nation were untrne to
their Uusi; that they Winked at the violation ol
