crease of public expenses. Because Adnma spent thirteen millions annually, the cry of Tetrenchment, extravagance and reform was rung through the land. But the expenses of Van Buren's first year will exceed hirty- fire millions! Our State Tax eight years since, was only about thirfy hOusand dollars i; this year it is about SiIty thousand dollars!

 One thing is certain there is something wrong and unnecessarily wrong in the pres ent state of the times-and this wrong must somehow be corrected. The rulers of par ty which has long been in power, are apt to grow corrupt and when any member of the party, which has elevated them to office, be- comes satisfied that the measures advocated and supported by those rulers are errone- 0uS, it is no disgrace to desert them on the contrary, it is one of the highest privileges secured to us by the Constitution, that we may reprore them Gt hhe Polls! It is the duty of every good citizen to consider himself, not the lover of party, but the loverof his cOu'l- 1 try! to inquire, not what will benefit his par 1 ty, but what will promote the interests of the

 Peopls-to covet the satisfaction of acting conscientiously and uprightly, rather than to fear any abuse which may he offered 10 him, by those whose measures he refuses longer to support-in short 10 rise G6oss S'arcTy to any l p:Ttg.

 At uStS SSSfl SStlO titSNt A "S NNbt " Sh"AtSSS of s,aeosures we must have u change of men.-

 We therefore, the undersigned, for the rea- SONS above stated, and for other reasons of a

 minor importance, shah go for such . change ; and iM making this statement ot our views, 1t 1 !S not ol,r design 10 abuse any one. While i we have right to our own opinions, SD o,h- { CTS poSsrSs tho same right in common with us. { We have eadcavored to give our views candidlv--if they arc correct, we hope they may convince o,hers-if wrong, we arc will l ling to he corrected.

 1 For the truth of the foregoing facts VIC rely upon what we believe to be authentic intor. mation. We do not depend upon party newspapers; for one party pronounced them to be unequivocally false, the other uneqniv- ocally true. If the leading men of the De- mocratic Party have, by their measures, brought distress upon the people, it is time for all true democrats to desert them. If, however, others think our rulers are corrupt nounce them knaves for their honest differ ence of opinion. We only ask that there shall be perfect liberty for every man to think and act openly according to the dic- tates of his own judgment, and his own con- science. without being denounced as TRAI- TOR or TURNcoAT
