One cause ofthe success of locofocoism
heretofore is, that the leaders of that party
have always professed to be the exclusive
friends of the poor man and they have re-

means to fasten odium on the whic party,


that thousands of honest minds have been led

the poor man We think the experience
! of the past SIX months will answer effertu-
ally this question. Hard money transac-
tons in all the business of government: and

and loss OF employment, and this must even
tually lead to the depression of society and
the enslavement of the laboring classes, as IS
