that extraordinary Congress. which tricks out in
the most catch penny style. the magnificent doIngs
of That body with the ful of causing the
people To wonder al the astonishing powers of its
mighty members.


Each particular measure adopted by that Con
gress receives from those who enacted TIA
plmen'ary eulogy, and The company endorse each for
each other, that they are remarkably uise and grea
men.


As these measures to he tested by their prac-
teal effects upon the interests of the communty

The mo jorty ofCongress are always respons bic
to the people for the character of their measures
and the people Will IN due time, always right them
selves IN the premises but unless the people are
eternally vgllant, demagogical. disappointed and
desperate politicians may insIdIOusly take from

by the employment of unhaowed means.

address. that the Constitution of the L nted States
be attacked, broken up and deranged IN order that
there shall be no cheek 10 the mad and lncUnsder

idea hat the Executive powers granted by our pre-
sent Constitution are dtspotlc, tyrannical and anti
republican.


That address plainly proposes to the American
people, that they alter, amend, and break up their
Constitution IN such manner that the President of
tie people shall have no power 10 lnterpOsc IN abcv
ance OF the will OF the majority IN Congress but
that he shall stand passive ministerial agent TO
register the unrestraned edIcts Of their will.

the Pres dent be shorn of the pow conferred
upon him by the instrument which Americans and
the universe, have hitherto looked upon the
perfect model of Republican Government, aud

rights and healthy checks which emanated
