Citizens:
An alarming crisis has arrivcJ
in the condition of inr country. Party
combinations and dictations have u
surped the dominion of the laws; and
the whole, system of o;ir inestimable go
vernment seeniH to le tending rapidly
to original chaos nnd discord. The
claims of an aspirant for oflice, are not
founded now, as they were under the
good old republican administration' of
the government, upon the fa.-t of bis
honesty, capability and devotion to the
constitution of tne country uui win
lie support "the partv" and Mr. Van
Buren, right or wrung? These are the
tests; this is the ordeal through which
a freeman has to psss, before lis can
hnvean opportunity of serving his i-nun-trj
or its citizen.' cv-n in the lowest
capacity. "Attacks upon popular liber
ty have evfr been introduced with fair
but deceptive p-ofi'Vin of regard fur
t he drnr people. All history goes to
esiablish this assertion. Veil nv' trace
its withering influence upon the prin

universal power and supremacy, by
that ' lightning flash of the fire ol free
dom which gleamed from the dagger of
a patriot Senator." But Rome fell
: The seeds of corruption and anarchy,
had taken too deep rsot in her consti
tution ever to be eradicated, and she
-now stands alone, after the lapse of
centuries, melancholy in her magnifi
cence, and renowned only for her for-
iner elevation and glory. Cromwell of,
England, was actuated solely by a-re-i
gard for the der people of the common-1
wealth, when he assumed the kingly j
power of dictating to her people the
descendants of those lofty baront who
succeeded in wresting'the great Magna
Cliarta of English liberty from the grasp
of a haughty and imbecile monarch.
True, howeTerj to the spirit of their
fathers, her people nobly repelled the
impudent pretensions of the usurper,
and re-established the B,iijremacy. of
her ancient institutions and govern-
.-ment. Napoleon assumed the govern
ment and the prerogatives of a tlespot-
, ic Emperor of France, only for the good
of lcr dear republican people. Other
instances might be cited from history,
fellow citizens, to prove tfe fallacy and
-danger of relying too confidently opon

THE SURPLUS REVENUE.
We should infer from the annexed
articles which appeared contemno-
raneoujlv in two intelligent journals,
several hundred miles from each other,
that some mischief is meditated by the
Spoils party in regard to the surplus
revenue; some scheme for preventing
the execution ol the law for itistnbuting
that surplus amongst that State. '"-".
FBOM THE MKW T0UK EXPBKSS, OCT. 17.
The Surplui Revenue There is no
doubt now thatlhe Van Buren men in
tend to make a tel-lo the next session
of Congress- upon the surplus revenue,
and to do away with the distrbutotion
if they can, not wi thsthndi ii 2G e he ra I
even aid on feood autlmritr, that Gen
eral Jackson Viim- will -recommend
the repeal! This is a question, therefore,
which should enter largely info the
ensuing" electrans.-J-Thr-:vvan -liuren
party look upon the surplus revenue as
spoils, which they have a right to dis
pose of; and if they are successful in
the elections, they will undoubtedly, in
the language of Governor Marcy, con
sider them . as the spoils or victory.
But however indifferent the country
may be to their creed, which pronoun
ces ofTicet the snoils of victory, we
question very much whether the People
are as yet prepared ta sanction the
claim, that the Unite! States treasury
is the spoil of victory.
No party in this country pretends
te say that it is proper to raise money
just to create a surplus revenue to dis
"a . .
tribute among the reople; put we did
think when General Jackson approved
the late law, that all parties agreed that
it was proper to distribute among the
People what surplus might harpen to
De in tne ircauury. vv Jfciiew, very
wen ii was sain wnen tne law was
passing that Mr.' Van Buren remarked,
4we are in I bad box," but we did not
believe that, even lie would attempt to
organize his psirty against a law which
passed so unanimously, and which re-
rnivAit thai rna.lr atenf of the Presl-t

pose i and therefore, we say , it is a
subject which should enter largely into
the ensuing elections. Candidates' for

. The policy of Mr. Van r Buren is
clear. He wishes to keep t is money
