ANTI-UNIONISTS
At a crowded meeting last night, at Martling's Tavern, Thomas Farmer, Esq. in the chair, the following resolutions were agreed to:
"Resolved, That it is inconsistent with the honor and dignity of the Republican party to enter into any bargain, treaty or alliance, with any other party whatever—That it would not only be degrading to us, but injurious to the Republican interest, silently to submit to what any person or persons may attempt to do, unauthorized by the great body of Republicans—That this meeting do not acknowledge the proceedings of a meeting of certain persons, at Dyde's Hotel, on the 18th inst. as the act of the Republican party: but expressly disavow and disapprove of the same.—That Aaron Burr does not, & ought not to possess the confidence of the Republican party—And that the Republicans of this state are willing, at all times, to receive such of their political opponents as may show by their conduct that they have adopted Republican principles"
These resolutions were preceded by a humble apologetical letter, signed by Gen. Bailey, and some other gentlemen present at the celebration of the "union of honest men."
