It Is not to be imagined with all
their fanaticism, that they are destitute
of conduct and address. They will
defer any regular attempt for the pre
etit. They arc satisfied with the
great advantages they have obtained
fn the last twelve months, and which
absolutely ensure their future aufcess.
Titer have united the nm-slave-holtl-ing
States in the- opinion of the right
and justice and expediency of Aboli
tion in the District. They have call
ed but si) decisive a demonstration in
its favor, as to have combined th
politicians in the cause. Martin Van

xceM'on to Abolition, IhitHpaftywas

ren'ainteresl tbjoin it, what addition
al strength has not his accession con
ferred on it? Hence it it seen that
District Abolition H universally em
braced North of Marylaud and the
Ohio.
While the Presidency is held by a
Southern man, who it may fairly be
presumed, would veto a bill abolishing
slavery in the District, the abolitionists
will only, skirmish with the question.
Their grand attack will be postponed
ntil a Northern President is installed,
whose sentiments are in unison with
theirs, and they have m longer any
reason to fear the veto. This accom
plished, their banner, will be hung on
the outer wall. The united ; North
will thunder at the doors of Congress.
It will all at once, have become "ex
pedient" too abolish slavery in the
District. Mr. Pinckney's weak reso
lutions will be trampled under toot
with the - contempt they - deserve-
Abolition will be madejhe universal

THE SQUANDERING OF THE
PUBLIC MONEY.
It waa a leading; doctrine of the old
Democratic Party, that a tepublican
Government should be administered
with the strictest economy. No ex
pensive ., military establishments no
army auarterfd upon our people to "eat
out their . substance'' no lavishing of
millions after millions on ramparts and
artillery entered into their under
standingof a Republican Administra
tion.. ;xperiencefatalxperience
had taught them the far-seeing wis
dom of Washington's declaration, that
all such estabjishmcnts are inauspi
cious to iioeny, anu particularly nos
tile to republican institutions.
But in all the writings of the old
Democratic leaders, we find that a top
ic more ' frequently.; brought forward,
and dwelt upon, than any other is the
vital importance or an economtcal ad
ministration. And the great Induce
ment to economy is not merely to light
o the Popular Burden not merely to
lave money to the People but to di
minish the resources and opportunties
of corruption in the GovernmeBt

lid.'.' "It is tliiasi8 of thit . govern:
ment" Our government must de
pend on the wisdom of -its ad minis tra
tion, and the economy of its expendi
tures.' It is Jefferson's desire to
administer the Government on the
pure ami economical principles of Re
nublicanism." "Economy is the blood
of the body politic it is the stamina,
which invigorates the social organs,
and gives animation to . all the move
ments by which they are directed.
It is the alpha and omega or a republi
can government, and the warrantee
which secures the welfare and havpi-

ol the party now in power well knew;
and the cry raised against Mr. Adam's;

It has been frequently asserted, that
Mr. Van Buren has held opinions at

proof of this; his vote on the Missouri

advisable to apply immediately and
