 To fhe Independent Republican Electors of the

 County cf Litchteld.

 \. Fellow Citizens: The foregoing names have been brought before the public as candidates for the offices to which they have been respectively designaied.- The nominations have received the sanction of public sentiment ita great .yarieiy of forms and ,he ques- tion now is whether LlTCHFIELD COUNTY will arise in its might, and give the of sound government and correct principles strenuous sup- por:. If momen, can occur in which 1t is the in- pera,ive duty of every patriotic Eector to exercise promptly and leariessly that inesiimable privilege the ELECTIVE FRANCHISE, it is certainly the present. While multitudes from all parts of the country have been forced by impending ruin to apply the govern- men almost in the attitude of suppliants for relief we fortunately can address those who should 6e THE SERVANTS, but ,cho soiah so become Me MASTERS or THE PEOPLE, in the appropriate language of reemen -n the authoritative acceDis of the ballot box When incompeiepcy. aided by prejudice, fraud and fol- y has asceoded the chariot of sale seized the rens in frenzy of passion, and is now dashing the vehicle of our hopesdown frghiful abyss, is lime

  ing interest has been beautifully styled by the great son ot New England, should isterpose with charac- tersc energy, and cause reason to resume it's author ity that the wheels of government may again revolve in the paths of honor, saety and peace. The Presi- dent of the United States seems to regard the muni- menis of the constitution very much as he would the ramparts of fortress which he resolved to qucr as every hazard Hence he has oserleapt every barrier which the farmers of our admirable system erected around the department of the Treasury; has seized upon millions which have accumulated iD the public coers, and proclaimed determination to dis pose of those millions according to the dictates of an arbitrary discretioe, in defiance of ihe pIgh.ed faith of the natiop, and the known wishes of the Repre- seniatiyes of the People. But his usurpaons not look to the past but extend also to the future; for he declares that HE WILL lay violent hands on the public revenue which may hereafter accrue; that HE WILL try ain experiment,-a fatal, uis;onary ezpsr- iment, by forinng A GREAT LEAGUE OF BANKS, without the authority of Congress. and sOiU bes,ow upon them the use of the public funds; and thus by tremendous organ ofcorruption gain the mastery over public sentiment and acquire the means of bessowipg the succession to the Prrsdency upon -;ii, .i. all tis yeranpiary autlSori- " of last will and testament. 8

 If this system s permitted to be carried into effect, there is end of the liberties cAhis country. The executive authority which already overshadows every other department of the government; which controls legislative action by arbitrary votes; which seizes upon the whole appoinng power in con tempt of the rights of the Senate, and by practical nuifca,on ofhe constitution; and which collects around iiselan army of otice-holders and ofce-expectans to over- awe the People, will by union of the power of the purse and the sword become Auocracy worse than that of Russia. t2 Fellow Citizens! The measures of lhe President, have carried or>wl carry dismay, confusion and em- barsassment throughout the land. The eroundess and reiterated attacks which he has made upon the Bank of the U. s. and the de,ermiua,ion which he has manifested to break down .ha. highly meritorious nsution has already greatly deranged the currency, and affected the business of the country. The evils which result from the destruction of credit and coni- dence must ere long reach every class of the commu nity. They first assail those who are concerned in commercial, mercantile and manufacturing pursuits but soon they attack the agricultural and mechanical interests; obtruds themselves every where, and be. comeas all-pervadng as the air we breathe No sec 'ion of the country however prosperous can escape --.~s " "'0"y s"'SsSN SV~uy VeEsuS W Ieet shock, and will continue to feel il more and more u the sagnation of business, in the depression of pr ces of produce, and the value of every description oil properys in the suspension and ruin of our manulac tures; and ia the Encouragement of industry and enterprise of every kind Why have these evils been inflicted upon the country7 what reason was there for measures 90 novel aud alarmngi Why has whole nation been arrested in of pros- perty9 Is because rulers have lost sight of the great principle tha. government has been const0ted aad the People, and sabserve their true nte- rests and no, for the bene, of TAE FEW who have 10. possesson of the Ship oi State turned out every up. right, experienced and skial mariner, stationed pi- lot al tIe helM discern che breakers ahead and are resolved 10 direct her upon rocky shore by way of expermen. ;'' aad if she shosld happen to be dashed to pieces, seze upoa the cargo and es cape with the plnnderf <
