With tbi conviction, we unfurl our colon to the breeae, and inacribe upon them TIIE MtMORl' OF IIARniSOSX I ONfi PRESIDENTIAL TERM. NO CORRUPT OFFICIAL PATRONAGE. THE PURITY OF ELECTIONS. A DISCRIMINATING TARIFF. A SOUND CURRENCY. FAITHFUL PUBLIC AGENTS. NO SUB TREASURY. NO ARBITRARY VETO POWER. PERSEVERANCE TO THE END. Harmony, Toleration and Unily.

A tax to subsidize the Public Liberty. To the victors belong the spoils. j SUB TREASURY! ! A National Debt. Exploded Banks. Tyranny in its worst form the Executive, the Legislature and Judiciary. The Presidential term a thing of traffic, to b bought and sold, and handed down in perpetual succession ! Such, though dark, is the picture faintly shad owed forth of Loco Focoiam, because such it has ever been. It has nothing else to offer. Nei ther in men, nor in measures, has it changed a jot since 13 10. To us is presented, fellow Whigs, the alternative of permitting our dearest interests, and those of a beloved country, to fall again into the withering embrace' of Loco Focoism, or by union, toleration, harmony and energy, to main tain, if we cannot advance, our present proud position.
