The North Carolina Standard

The Whig Party.—The Vermont Patriot states "it is an undeniable fact, that all the surviving members of the Hartford Convention are opposed to the election of Martin Van Buren." These men have not forgiven him for his active opposition to their treasonable projects, and for the efficient support which he gave to his country when she stood in need of the patriotic exertions of her sons. Their hostility to Mr. V. B. is the highest eulogy which can be paid to his patriotism and his Democratic principles, and is, at the same time, a striking exemplification of the discordant materials which compose the Whig party.—Lynchburg Democrat.
