pathy and respect for the Society of Tam many, and to pay tribute of love and ven- eration to our departed hero, ill commence rating with you the most ilustrious triumph ol, our arms.

 The present is time, when the hearts of all our counlrymen will recur with renewed affection, and warmer gratitude, to the me- mory of our great Leader ill war And, l though he has been withdrawn from us in this important crisis oi our publ C affairs, we shall still feel and act in every question ol national honor and national rights, as though his wise head and brave heart could still counsel and guide us. The lessons we have derived from him, are now doubly persuasive and impfessive; and the old Hero and Sage still lives to us in the counsels he has be- queathed, and the principles he instJIed. On the man who was his chosen friend, and is now the chosen Representative of our De- mocracy, we may rely for the calm, firm, sue cessiul maintenance of all hiS and our pIinci- pies; and, among them, that cardinal maxim Tn our foreign reiations-''to ask only what IS right; to submit to nothing that is wrong" In the maintenance of this high, just, brave principle, the Administration, we are all as- sured, will seek to preserve peace. while 1t can be preserved with national honor; and, be the event as 1t may, the undivided heart oi the people will support the assertion oi our rights.

 Ihe principles of Jackson and ot Polk We ask nothing but what is right; we sub nit 10 nothing that is wrong. We respect ii, If ,,atiy,,c. ,,.;o tain our own.

 have the honor to be, sir, your ob't serv,l.
