precautions against him. These deeds which he
has achieved for his party should secure for him
tie cheerful vote Of every Democrat


Another overwhelming objection of Mr.. Harker
against Mr.. Adams, is the manner of his election.
He was chosen BY majority of the House Of Re-
presentatves, in the mode prescribed by the Con-
stitution of the United States, and this is reason
why he should not be supported, by Mr.. Harker
and his party which he is pleased to serve. Where
is the man who is afraid to trust the principles and
forms Of our Constitution? 1t has served US faith
fully and advantageously for many years, and we
should not break it to pieces heap abuse upon it
unadvisedly. / must acknowledge the present
mode of electing the President and Vice President
Of the United States is, in my opinion, liable to
some objections; but still, in the late election Of
J. Q. Adams, the Representatives Of the People
acted constitutionally and honestly. | think the
Representative should speak the voice Of his Con-
stituents; and if Representative had consulted
his, the cote Of Delaware aCould not haze been
THROWN AWAY. But is it any objection to Pre-
silent that he has been constitutionally elected ?
1t may dsqualify man, it may shake his integrity
and dull his intellect, in Mr.. Harker's opinion.
but every reasonable man must ridicule such an
opinion MIR. Harker has many queer notions,
and this is one Of them, that Mr. Adams should
not be elected to the next Presidency, because he
was chosen in the manner prescribed BY the Con-
stitution.


But Mr.. Harker's reasons why Federaists should
vote for Jackson should be powerful stimuli in
Democrats to oppose him. Jackson's policy, says
Mr.. Harker, is to give the Federalists distinction
and efficiency in the government she is to be the
patron of that party who threw obstacles in the
way Of !. the second war of independence, ,"-he
is to befriend those traitors Of their land who
would have sacrificed US to the oppression of Bri-
tain sin word Federalism and its friends are to
|be fostered under his paternal care, and in time
regain that destructive strength which once made
them as terrific as they are now weak. If Democ-
racy is worth preserving, all its friends should
unite in giving their suffrages to its firm and able
friend and advocate. John Q. Adams has been
acknowledged by Federalists as their most vio-
lent opposershe has done bis country invaluable
service in assisting to crush the destroyer of Re-
publican Liberty-and should ever be remembered
with gratitude by the Democratic party for the SER
vices he has rendered their party, and the wisdom


with which he has guided the councils Of his coun-
try. X.
