[OONTINKKl) FROM LAST WEKK,]
The defeat of Jackaon
through th« influence of Clay
caused great dissatisfaction
among the people, and Adams
was charged with being a "mi-
nority president." Although
administration was wise
and just; and his policy broad,
and nonpartisan. He became
unpopular with the people.
Jackson devoted himself to the
reorganization' and harmoniz-
ing the discordant elements of
his part;y preparatory to the
campaign of 182(5; and the pro-
mulgation of its priciples.
Clay became au ardent sup
porter of the administration,
and gave Adams bis aid and
iniluence in the coming cam-
paign.
Adams became a candidate
for reelection in 1828, and was
vigorously opposed by the
"democrats." Who were
again led by Jackson and Cal-
houn.
The contest was waged upon
the same issues as that of '24,
aud resulted in a "Waterloo" for
the administration and "Old
Hickory" was vindicated.
Clay even failed to stay the
tide in his own state, which

The popular vote was; for
Jackson, 047,231, For Adams,
509,097.
For v!c3 president: Calhouu
received 171 votes. While the
other 90 votes were divided be
tweeu Richatd Rustic and Wil
liam Smith. The supporters
of Adams in this campaign
adopted the name of republi-
can, which had been discarded
by the Jacksonian party for
for the name democrat; and
each party claimed to be fol-
lowers of Mr Jefferson's teach-
ings.
Theassession of "OldHicko
ry" to the presidency, was a
notice to his opponent) that
they had to deal with a man
who had the courage of his
convictions; and who would
leave no stone unturned to
carry out the pledges he had
had made iu the cauvaeB. As
a uatual consequence a fierce
and unrelenting political war-
fare was waged against him
from the time he assumed the
duties of his office, until he
laid them down eight years la
ter. It is said that no Ameri-
can statesman was ever so bit
terly denounced by his ene-
mies or so earnestly support-
ed by his friends.
While his public policy ws
met in Congress by the opposi
tion of such able statesmen as
Clay and WebBter. His per-
sonal character; and the sacred
precint ofhis family were at-
tacked by the vilo tongue of
slander, but he always had
the satisfaction of knowing his
friends to be in the majority;
and he never asked a vindic-
tion at the hands of his people
that he did not receive. His
policy was aggressive in the
extreme, but we believe he
was guided in all his acts by a
concienesness that he was do-
ing his duty. His party
friends often counceled him to
more conservative action; bnt
when once a course was map-
ped out he usualy followed it
with a determination almost
unparalled.
During his first term a bill
to recharter the "Bank of The
United States" whose charter
expired in 183<i, pasjod both
houses of congress and met
the presidents veto. This
caused great indignation
among 1*csh of the opposite
party who had championed
that measure, and caused some
anxiety among conserveative
democrats who thought the
president had carried his po
litical conviction# too far tot
——mmmtmm«mmmm
hiB partys welfare.
In 1832 the famous nullifica-
tion act was passed by the
South Carolina legislature; and
bnt for the promt action of the
president in suppressing the
rebellions spirit of the Caroliu-
ians; and the compromise meas-
ure offered by Clay, the coun-
try would have been plunged
into civil war. President
Jackson's coutse iu this matter
was approved by all parties,
aud served to offset the unpop-
ularity of his celebrated veto.
The first natinuul convention
was held iu 1832 by the "auti-
masonic" party whose princi-
ples were opposition to all Be
cret organizations. That con-
vention nominated William
Wirt for president, and William
Wilkins for vice piesident.
The national republican par
ty followed and nominated
Henry Clay for president. The
democratic convention notni
nated Jackson for prusideut,
and Martin Van Buren for vice
president. The n«wly formed
whig party supported John
Floyd for president and Amos
Ellimaker for vice president.
The contest was between Jack-
son and Clay.
The policy of Jackson on the
bank question was the chief
point of attack. But their vi-
gorous fight proved unavail-
ing, and "Old Hickory" again
came out winner. The follow
ing is the electorul vote by

The popular vote for Van
Buren was 701,549. The com-
bined whig vote was 730,050.
Johnson failed to secure a ma-
jority of the electoral vote for
vice president, and he was
elected by the senate. Hi?
competitors were Francis
Grange, John Tyler, and Wil
liam Smith.
Van Buren was considered
tLe most sagacious polical
lender of his time, aud to his
shrewd management of the po-
litical fortunes of Jackson is
attributed, iua large degree; of
the many triumphs of the "He-
ro of New Orleans." New
York, then as now was the
pivotal state in national «<leo-
tlonp, and Mr Van Buren, pos-
sessed at that tiui') an intlueu'.-e
and position in the politics of
the "Empire slate" similar to
that held by senator David B.
Hill today.

under such favorable circum-
Bla'ices' was soon to be sha-

531,091.
While Floyd and Wirt, poll-

about 33 each.
Vau Buren received 189 elec-
toral votes. The remaining
99 yotes being divided between
Johu Sergout, Henry Lee,
Amos Ellimaker, and William
Wilkins.
Jackson, considering that his
policy had been sustained by
the people, by his re -lectioD,
ordered the deposits of the gov-
ernment with the "Bank of the
United States" removed from
its vaults.
The bank contracted its
loans: and money became
scarce and business was de-
pressed. A great clamor arose
from the people, and his politi-
cal opponents urged that he
had exceoded his constitution-
al authority.
A resolution of censure was
ottered in the senate by Clay;
which was advocated with
earnestness by the oppositon
party; but failed of passage
as both houses of congress
were strongly democratic. To
relieve the stringency in finan-
affairs, the money taken from
the national bank was placed
in various "local" and "state
banks" which were afterward
denominated "pet banks."
This measure caused a revival
in business; an I the local
banks began to issue notec,
and the famous "wildcat"
banking system which was to
bring forth such dire results,
was instituted. Fori a tirn
business was in a flourishing
condition, and the country wit-
nessed an era of speculation
tbe like of which it had never
before seen. Jackson's term
of office drew to a close, with
apparent prosperity among the
people, and less dissatisfaction
ntnong the masses than had ex
isted at the end of his first
term.
Vice president Van Buren
became the candidate of the
democrats for president in 1830
and R. W. Johnson for yice
president.
The "whig" party had now
absorbed the nntic nal republi-
can party; but it was greatly
weakened in the «ampaiu of
J830 by division. The whigs
favored "internal improve-
ments"; a protetiva tariff, and
tbe United States bank, all of
which were opposed by the
democrats.

The banks all suspended specie 4th, 1803:
The

payment and trade stood still,
and poverty and distress stalk-
ed abroad in the land. This
event caused a revolt against
the administration among the
people, but the presidents par-
ty leaders stood by him
throughout.
Van Buren introduced the
system of sub-treasuries for
depositing the national monies
similar to the oue in use now.
This measure was also warmly
antagonized by his aoponents,
and repealed during the ensu
ing administration.
Ere the effects of the panic
had worn off the election of
1840 came on. Van Buren and
Johnson were re nominated by
the democrats, and their ad-
ministration indorsed by that
party. The "whigs" concentrat-
ed their forces and nominated
Gen. William H. Harrison, of
Indiana, for president and John
Tyler, of Virginia, for vice
president. They censured the
administration and charged all
the later troubles to its policy
and re affirmed their support
of their former principles.
Gen. Harrison had distin
guished himself as a soldier
and the hero of Tippioanoe.
His campaign was conducted
with a hurrah, and has since
been designated as the "great
national frolic." Immense ral-
lies were held throughout the
land, and his emblems consist-
ing of a log cabin, a barrel of
cider and a raccoon skins dis-
played everywhere, and the
proves rang with the song
"Tippicauoe aud Tyler too."
