prepared Rf them, and which, 10 say the
least WAS Mol,hy Vi the numbers present.
A large n,rnbes of hdies gseced the occo-
sion BY their presence. After dinner. the
meeting lv-asseml led ia front of the stand,
whern Shlrnfap LkrrhsR, Ess. was cal
led upon to address them. He rose in
obedience 10 the call, and for some Two
hours he rivetted the attention Of his vast
audience in a speech Of matchless cloqnence
and power Il is conceded on all hands to
have been his finest effort upon the stump.
That il told with tremendous effect upon
all who heard him is shown BY the lead
which he takes of the whole feld-aud
tha, the whole meeting told upon the con-
test with glorious influence is seen in the
triumphant result at the polls.


AT the conclusion Of Mr., LIS speech Git
being then late in the afternoon, the COM
mlttee appointed to prepare resolutions
were called upon for their report, and,
through their Chairman, GrSL. JAMES NJ.
MoRcAs, offered the following resolutions,
which were adopted by acelamation, when
the meeting adjoarned


Resolred, That in the contest now being
waged throughout the United States by the
democratic Republicans on the one side
and the Federal coons on the other, our
sympathies are, as they ever have been,
with ahd ior the cause OF Democracy and
Equal Rights.


Resolnd, That the nomination Of Gov.
Polk for the Presidency meets our most
cordial alProbation--that we recognize in
him all the higher qualities Of our nature
qualities which should be inseparable from
the patriotism and abihty-pur-
ity of heart and energy of will--rectitude
OF mind and iirmness oil purpose-a spot
less private character and a consistent pub
lie one; he needs no Frelinghuysen as an
endorsement; and although tie restrictions
OF a Territorial government will pre-, eli,
US from giving him in our votes, yet the





will soon afford us the liberty 10 give his
administration firm, vigorous and enthu-
siastic support.


Resolved, That federalism is the same
every where-the same here that il is else
where-the same now that it ever has been.
even from the time it was first conceived
and brought into existence by the Elder
Adams in co junction with Mr.. Hamilton
-arogant. In, olerant, and ndaristocralc-Nin-
dctive, selfish and deceiiful-always hold
ing promises to the ear, but ever breaking
them TO the hope ambitious, tyranical and
corrupt--monopolizing and mercenary in
its spint-Iartial in its policy-contracted
in its views-contning lis iayors TO the
few, and imposing burdens upon the many
in word, the whole scope and spirit OF
its nature seems to be to protect the rich
and oppress the poor--to gorge its senses
upon the spoils OF Office and fcas, its ambi-
tlon upon the power OF place.


Resolced, That democracy is the con.
verse Of all this--that it is plain, simple
and Observation-Disclosures, straightforward
and Notwithstanding lis practices Il
its prctessions-generous in its policy
universal in its sympathics in lis
views, making not only the few favored
ores of fortune but all mankind the objects
OF its beneticence-eX,encing the same
privileges, and the same blessings to all
giving the poor equal liberty with the rich
and denying the rich any exclusive priv
ilege over the poor.


RESOLVED, That regarding parties an1
principles in hi Sigh we Shall oppose IL
the last any and every effort TO engraft ;
single PARTICLE OF federalism upon the new
government which we are about to form
at the same lime that we shall labor to i'm
press upon our Constitution all the fai
features oil democracy. We ask for moth
ing more and will suOli to nothing less


ReSotcea, -..,.t &c { 10 primitive federal
ism, we aeh.r its new aujuncts-Aboli
tionism ana Native Amvi lcar ism. Tt,
former seeks waht.n Interference will
the rights OF tie States and the rights o
the people. The latter is disgrace to tn,
age in which we live-an insult to the bes
blood which flowed in the war of the Rev
olution-an attack upon liberty itself--a Ii
bel upon our government burlcsque up
on epublicanism-and an unjust, ungen
erous, and unholy warfare upon humanity


Resolved, That as the coons gained pow
er in 1910 by means Of bribery and cor
ruption, by pipe-laying and false promises
so have they reaped the reward Of thei
iniquity in the universal denunciation G
the people and in the ''treachery" of ''Ty
Ter too As they have made their bed
SO let them lie.


1esoiued, That the only difference be
tween the federalism Of 1910 and the fed
eralism of 1874 is, that while they now TN
blushingly avow their wicked measure:
they then had mo principles tor the publ
eye"


Resolued, That in the policy now advc
Gated by the coons we recognize all Of tn
old leaven Of federalism Bank of tn
United Statcs-the assumption by the gen
eral government Of the debt Of the State
la High Protective Tariff-hostility
ioreigners-hostility to the extension
our territorial limits-and hostility to tn
settlers upon the public lands.


Resolved, That we send greetings to ou
brethren in the States, not doubling bl
that, with their policy, they can success.
, fully meet and overthrow federalism an
. its measures
