His views f the subject were ably 1 without a dissenting voire. f The citizens of Halifax here assem- ,. b1el, bi'ing deriitedly opposed to the I elevation of Martin Van Buren to the t Presidency of tlie United States, deem I it fit and bfcoioinjr on the present oc- ; easion to-state a-cimcisely- as ntissisr , We, some ot the reasons which in !' duce them to oppose, by all honorable - means in their power, his election to : the liiat and responsive oSTice. to u Inch . lie aspire. We are opposed to Mr. Van Buren ' because, on no occasion has he exhib ited any evidence of distinguished a 'bility, or l.fty patriotism b filing him for a station so vitally important. He has served many years in the Con gress of the United States, with the ' fairest opportunities before him, with out having originated a single impor tant measure for the good of his coun ' try. : He his occupied other high sta r tions in the pub'ic service without tis- pTayitVg"anyrh(iseJ4s f qualifications which characterize the statesman, and render a man able and capable of performing great and"iin- portant services for the good of his ountry. If he pnsessed such high qualifications, it is utterly inconceiva ble that with the constant dpportunt ties before him. he should have done nothtngn establish anyju9t claini to the gratitude of his country, and to buiUu renown to his own fanvV , Toe-undisguised troth is, Mr. Van . Buren is utterly incapable of those en larged, just and wise -view of public n tlicy, which tend to the permanent ' happirtf ss rtd etf:ire of soHet 'On'' public .course, nothing but that low, 'groveling, pettifogging spirit which seeks by intrigue and cunning to pro mote the "lfih designs and purposes of party; wholly regardless of the best and dearest interests of the country. If his want ot the necessary qualifica ? lions totally unfit Wm Tjor the Presi l dency, as we tiThcerely believe, hrs ; political principles and public conduct, I as little commend him to our favorable ; consideration. In 18 1 2, when a fierce and blo4iiy war was waging between I the United States and Great Britain, and when it was the bnunden duty ' of M. " A. . . , every pernor., especially those claim ing to belong to the great republican , party, to rally around the administra . i lion, and to nerve the arm of the gov ernment for resistance against the com mon enemy, we find Mr. Van Buren, pretending to be a republican, uniting i with the Federal party to destract the P'idiic councils, to spread discontent through the country, 'and to defeat theJ I --iJlt .e l . . ii . .l . i re-election of the able, fh virtnnua. the patriotic Madison to the Presiden cy of the U. States. A man capable of such conduct at such a crisis, and under such circumstances, deerves not the name of republican, and is un worthy of ptiblie confidence. Subse quently when Missouri applied for ad- 'iiiinn into tae iniinn, upon equal ' erm with the orijinal Stales, as she had an Mnqiiesfronahle -right to do, he is fiiuml advocating theeriction i at. itmpte.t to Ik 'Imptiae'tT on her ntizna, im rrlatioti to the tubject of SUveryt dressed The mating w ttlj cre.l power impo1iftnif elections, and of and efTect The following Preamble h wh(, h and Resolutions were then adopted ' . - ..,. ;.; ,i ... thus manifesting his deadly hostility to the institution of Slavery as establish ed in the Southern States, and his ear nest desire to impose unconstitutional and unjust restrictions on the people i.f the South.

States, and that all his hopes and prospects of success rest a lone on that nomination. This move ment in favor of Mr. Van Buren, ori gin jat etl w i th t h e .0 Ifi ce Holders of the country, anxious to perpetuate their power, and to secure to themselves the emoluments of. office. They have fol lowed it up by the most systematic, o pen, ami powerful exertions to render tf-SHceessfu!, amrby means thunvost odious antl detestable. . -The greatj-the overwhelming -pat-- tronageoflhe government is qrought to (tear in the most shamclul and un pert otlire, tlo not rise up jesty of their strength, antl prostrate this gross interference wiih their rights, this shameful attempt fo1 force them into submission, it is utterly im possible that our republican fo m of longer endure. Let it be constantly bore in mind that the peoplf are requiretl to yield im plicit obedience to thu nominations made by the Baltimore Convention, upon the ground that the delegates to the convention were elected by, antl fairly represented, the great repub lican party of the United States. It would very far exceed our just limits to enter into a minute examination of the manner, and the persons by whom the several members were appointed. A more suitable occasion for the ex position will Ifereafter occur, but we cannot forbear to mention two cases, affording some light on the subject and going to show what participation the great blytWefweTdedMisty ing tlelegates to this Humbug Conven tion. The present organ of the Van Buren party at Raleigh, was a dele gate to the convention and pretended to be the representative of a district in which he did not live. At one of the largest meetings of the people of mat uisinct ever neiu, it was puonsn ed.to the world under authority of the meeting, that his appointment was not known at the time, to one person in twrnhwawtrBf tended to represent, that the perrnle it r TT i i1. i i. . therefore had no knowledge of his ap pointment; and consequently had no participation in it. 1 lusts not an insulated case scores of otltei s equall y nagrant antrageous -rwijjttj; pe ad; ducetf, did otiir proper,'' -limits permit. But to cap the climax, of imposition and fraud, the case of Rucker U with out parallel or precedent. This man having no certificate -of election by any body! nay never pretending to have been appointed a delegate by any por tion o: the people ot Tennessee, was permitted to act as-a -member of ihe convention, and to cast fifteen, votes as the representa ive of that State, Jor Martin Van Buren for the presidency. And yet a convention thus constitut ed, is blazoned forth to the world as a fair representation ol the great demo cratic republican party of the United States, and their acts and doings enti tled to the confidenre and support of the great body of the people.; A gros ser and more shameful imposition was never aftempted to be practiced o.n the people, and well deserves their indig nant reprobation. Ilavinsr stated some of the "'reasons ' " to 0PP?" Mr:? " Buren. we would proceed to set forth htch induce the grounds which in our opinion fully justify the support it is our purpose to give to Judge White as our candi date for the Presidency of the United States, but this duty has been entrust ed tn abler and more competent hands, rendering it unnecessary for us lo enter upon the subject.
