Federal Repurlwam Resoltttions.
At a general meeting of the Federal Republi-
can vitlzeKi of Albany, convened at the
City-Tai'er.i, on ihd-h'sday the l8*A of
March, 1807, the fdlcivb,-" resolutions
•were unanimously adopted :
This meeting taking into their serous
consideration the present situation of our
public affairs and the existing state of poli-
tics and parties in the state cf New-York :
Considering that the p'evalence of demo-
cratic and anti-federal principles in this
state for a course of ye^rs, has tended to
sow dissentions, spread discontent, promote
injustice impair public confidence, wea-
ken the hands of govenmient and gradually
to bring our state affairs ts a crisis that de-
mands the attention of all public spirited
citizens;
Considering that this prevailing spirit, ha-
ving arrived at the point at which a power-
ful and dominant party divides into rival
factions, is at length removing from the pub-
lic mind the prejudices created by its own
intrigues, and thus awakening the people to
reflection ; /
Considering that these feuds and dissenti-
ons among our political opponents, while
they tend to remove popular prejudices and
to moderate that tyranny c>f party which has
heretofore been practised, tend also to wea-
ken the energy of the .existing government
in which •*» are all interested as citizens,
and thus seriously to afiect the public inte-
rests and welfare ;
Considering, therefore, that the present
crisis not only presents a fit occasion, but
makes it an incumbent duty, for disinterest-
ed and public spirited men to exert their
influence, to express their sentiments, and
lo consult together for the public good :
Thereupon,
Resolved, As the sense of this meeting,
that it is fit and proper that Federal republi-
cans should embrace the present occasion to
communicate their sentiments on the state
of public affairs, and to exhibit to the view
of their fellow citizens at large, the princi-
ples that influence their minds and actuate
their conduct.
Resolved, As the sense of the meeting,
that the general prosperity end growing
wealth of our country bear testimony to the
value of those federal republican principles,
which laid the foundation of our Union
and conducted the steps of our patriots &sag-
es during the first ten years cf our national
administration, and thnt vie cherish with
the pride of freemen and patriots, the senti-
ments and feelings that influenced the mea-
sures of those days.
Resolved, That the mainfenace ol public
justice, the encouragement and protection
of commerce, enlightened plans, and libe-
ral provisions for public defence, and a sta-
ble and ene.getic system of civil ad-
ministration, are amongst the primary ob-
jects of the constitution and the first duties
of the government under which we live ;
and that the general neglect and various re-
cent instances of disregard of those principles
manifest the weakness of our present nati-
onal administration, and disappoint the just
expectations of the nation at large and of
this state in particular.
Resohed, That the feeble, narrow and
time-serving policy pursued by that adminis-
tration, and the inadequacy of its measures
to the want of a great and growing, tut
disunited and unprotected people, naturally
turn our attention to our state authorities and
jurisdictions, and press upon us the x pedi-
ency of general and united effors to increase
the respectability of out own state govern-
ment in its various departments.
Rfolued, That the citizens now assem-
bled, being in duty bound as federal repub-
licans, to seek the general good of the com-
munity, and .not that of a sect, do utterly
disclaim all concern or interest in the pres-
ent contentions of democratic parties, and
look forward with confidence lo thai period
when the public service, and not the per-
sonal taterest of men, will be the governing
objects of our public elections and appoint-
ments : That when that period shall arrive,
they assure themselves that a large, weighty
and respectable portion of tue community,':
whom intrigue, usurpation and tyranny have
affected to proser.oe, 1 ;it, who, though op-
pressed, have never bees degraded nor dis-
honored, will enjoy that consideration and
influence in public affairs, which the public
good demands, and to which they are justly
entitled, not merely as federalists, but as
freemen and friends to liberty and good go-
vernment : That in the pursuit of those ge-
neral objects and measures of public reform,
and of liberal policy, which the welfare of
this state at the present juncture so urgently
calls for, they pledge themselves hereby to
each other and their country, (and trust that
in this they express the sense of federalists
throughout the state,) that they are stimu-
lated by no party inteicst, (hat no hope of
office or emolument shall influence, no feat
of the power of others shall deter them torn
all proper and honorable exertions.
Resolved, As the sense of this meeting,
that in o.ur free country the right of popu-
lar election is not, the less to be prized, but
rather the more to he cherished, in conse-
quence of its occasional abuses ; that this
right under the auspices of the constitution
and the protection of Divine Providence, is
the main pillar of our security ; that it is
therefore the duty, as it should he the pride
of freemen on all occasions to exercise this
right with a zeal proportioned to the public
interests .at stake ; and under present cir-
cumstances, to use increased exertions to
augment the number of able, patriotic • and
public-spirited men in our state legislature.
Resolved, as the sense of this meeting.
That hi the ensuing election for governor
and lieutenant-governor, it is a duty that
ledtral republicans owe themselves, their
principles and the communiry', to use, for
the best good of their country, the fran-
chise which t'ley enjoy 111 common whii
tllcir fellow citizens at large j and to make
b choice betweentho1 candidates nominal.' d :
That in making sttch-a' choice they ought
to be guided by a liberal vii-\v of the public
interests, and to fit k.-ct ;.i.d support such of
the respective candidates as may seem least
exceptionable in relation to the jrreri points
of difference between federalists and their
adversaries, and most likely to favor and
promote those moderate, independent and
liberal principles, and those reforming and
hearing measures', which are so necessary" to
the p edic tranquility.
