But notwithstanding the manner In which the
nomination was received, and the very low esti-
nation 10 which Mr.. Polk was held by the great
mass Of the party, the word has gone forth, that
i is a most glorious nomination that Mr., Polk
is very great man, and very eminent man, the
greatest in the ranks of the Democracy-that he
has claims superior to those of Mr.. Van Buren,
Mr.. Calhoun, Mr.. Cass, Mr.. Buchanan, Colonel
Johnson, Commodore Stewart or, last and least,
General Iowson-though never before thought
of; that Providence itself guided and directed the
choice, and that upon him the party must unite as
man. This order of the leaders to the rank
and file will be obeyed, except by those who have
sufficient independence to think and act for them
selves, and who see in this union upon Mr., Polk,
two objects; namely, TO WIN THE SPOILS,
AND 70 BREAK DOWN THE PROTECT
I'VE POLICY. We, therefore, repeat to the
Wings of the Union the language used to US a
few days ago by prominent free trade man
{" 1t is not Mr. Polk that you have to beat, but
the Locofoco party"


AT the South Mr.. Polk will be urged upon the
people as the anti-tariff candidate, while at the
North his free trade doctrines, and his hostility
to that policy which fosters and protects Ameri-
can industry and enterprise, will be kept out of
view as much as possible, and plastered over by





the assertion that he is in favor of the compro-
mise act. If put to the test, however, it will be
found that he is not in favor of the compromise
act even, because he is not in favor of home udl-
uation and cash duties provided for by that act,
and which make it protective act.


| The real issue presented to the American peo-
pie in the approaching Presidential election is,
whether The tariff of 49, mhich has restored pros
psrity 10 The country, shall be PRESCRIBED, or aohe-
Mer 1t shall be repealed The Texas question
has been thrown in to divert the minds and at
think they have too much sagacity in regard to
their own interests to be drawn off from the great
questions they have to decide.


If any evidence were wanting toi prove that
the Whig party are in favor of fostering and en-
couraging American labor, and that the Locofocos
are opposed to the policy which does that the
votes in the House of Representatives upon Mr..
>McKay's bill to repeal Cor, which is the same
thing, alter and amend) the tariff act of 1912, is
sufficient to set the matter at rest. Not a Wing,
Northern or Southern, voted for that bill, while
almost the entire Locofoco party-all except
twenty-eight-voted for it.
