In giving my suppert to this ticket, Tam itfluenced qu’ much by tire to see the administration of the pubiic affeirs of our own State placed in democratic hands, as a regard fo those netic questions which have, of late years, ciarracted the democracy of the country. Indeed these questions, for the ‘ast two years, we have considered as serthe—com promued—ard, coking at the resolations adop ed by the two secticns of the party lately at Syra- cure, it is difficult to perceive any farther grounds of Ofference vpon these questions. ‘The Caral question, also, has been wetted by 8 oom- premie, (Ike the word,) between the Senate and Aa umbly.
