It was a beautiful sentiment of Gen. Jackson,
that "the blessings of government, like the dews of
Heaven, should be dispensed alike on the rich and
the poor." And it has been practically illustrated
through the whole course of the administration of
this venerable patriot and fortunate Chief Magis-
trate. Equal laws and an impartial administration of
them, are among the distinguished traits of his ad-
minstration—and the protection of the poor from the
encroachments of the rich—from the power of an
overshadowing bank aristocracy, and the grasp of
the speculator—its highest attribute. Such will be
the character of him whom New York delights to
offer as a candidate worthy of the suffrages of the de-
mocracy of the Union.—Albany Argus.
