meet the approbation of the other leaders; so a mo
tion was made to lay tbe resoltion on the table till after
the speech—wbea Mr. Cobh, in his «
bowline, foaming and sweating style,
defence; attempting, as we understand, to justify his
voU for the Proviso on the ground that Oregon lies
north of tbe Missouri Compranim line, where slavery
oald be introduced if the Proviso had
tsted, and that, therefore, the South could lose nothing
by tbe incorporation of that proviso into the Oregon
territorial bill. True, «he would not, directly, low any
thing by it—bat indirectly, tivotyb that vote, she
lose every thing. If Ckcigrass have tbe constitutional
right to exclude slavery from Oregon, have they not
also the right to exclude it from California f
what is to prevent the incorporation of tbe Wihnot Pro
viso into the bill fur tbe territorial government of Cal
ifornia! Mr. Cobb has fay bis vole acknowledged tbe
right of Congress to legislate on tbe subject, and tbe
North having a majority m that body, what is to hin
der them from restricting slavery in tho new territories I
Mr. rode, too, has aafietsooed tbe right of Coogreee to
legislate on this subject by signing tbe bill containing
tbe Proviso—which could not have passed but for tbe
treason of two Southern Democratic Senators! Thu* (
it be seen, that tbe great barrier between Southern
rights and Northern fanaticism, lias been broken down
by tbe Democracy—the Hon. Howell Cobb assisting by
bis vote at the first onslaught, and tbe work consum
mated by the treason of Benton and Houston and tbe
signature of the Preriffrnt to the bill—thus establishing
a precedent which will be claimed by the North here
after in tbe citablidunent of all new territorial govern-
ents!
Mr. Cobb, not coatent with a defence of hi* own course
in Congress, poured oat bis vials of wrath upon the
head of Mr. Fillmore, asserting that be had gone farth
er Uian Adam*, Slade, or any of tbe Abolitkausts against
Southern right j. A sufficient reply to such twaddle as
this is tbe him pic statement of the fact that Mr. Con
birawtf bra gone farther than Mr. Fillmobe ever did—
haring voted fir the WILMOT PROVISO, which no
Locofcco will dare say tbe latter did. It is not our oh.
ject, however, to reply to Mr. Cobb's arguments, or to
follow him through his numerous assertions; but sim
ply to allow that hi* abuse of Fillmore will never satis
fy his coosritucnta in regard to his
clarion, we would advise him to take the “ certificate of
good behavior" furnished him by tbe Athens Junto,
who have assumed the duty of regulating Democracy
liere and el-e where, and whenever his constituents find
foult with bis coarse on the Proviso, exhibit that to them
—it may possibly aati-fy them—bis flimsy arguments
and transparent sophistry never can!

ty north of the Potomac who is freer from all taint
suspicion of Abolition, none who, in feeling or
chivalric sentiment of Kentucky, than the trium
phant election of Mr. Crittenden, when opposed by
such calumnies and combinations. It is in evej'y
way a glorious political achievement—glorious in
numbers and still more glorious in the vindication
of a patriotic high-souled statesman, who was se
dulously assailed by the dangerous weapons of
forgery and slander. In doubling the Whig major
ity of the gubernatorial canvass of 1844, he has de
monstrated to the country the deep hold which he
occupies in the hearts of the generous, brave and
magnanimous people amongst whom he was born,
and has won for himself a distinction at once proud
and commandin'. It is no ordinary victory, and
Mr. Crittenden may well regard it as the highest

pulous means with which he was opposed, and

Is m word ol comment necessary 1
True modesty.
The reply of Gen. Taylor to the Chairman of the
Committee for presenting the medal ordered by the
State of Louisiana, (says the Chronicle & Sentinel)
is full of dignified modesty. He speaks of the vie
tory of Buena Vista a* won by his “brave soldiers. 1
Whoever has read the “ Leonidas Letter” writtei
by Pillow, should contrast it with the following
sentence from tbe lips of glorious old “ Rough and
Reaily
true there were high and gallant deeds
done on the heights of Buena Vista, and noble and
precious blood drenched the parched earth and
stained for many a long step its craggy borders;
a ‘ of the glory won there I have i
than a soldier's share. The h<
lead in tbe fight wa* a high one, sad that I fal-
Tho Atherton resolutions, Mr. Wise said, sold
the tiouth, and ho told the truth, says the Richmond
Whig. From the moment when, for vile party
purpose*, the right of Congress to legislate npon
the peculiar institutions of the South wawidmitted
by their introduction, the position of tho South has
been that ofa man sitting npon a barrel of gunpow
der. We were then taught, for the first time, to
depend upon our “ Northern Allies—wo were told
that they were the inen to whom we were to look in
the hour of danger—that they had both the power
and the will to protect us. The South was thus,
by her own sons, placed in the humiiiuting attitude
suppliant seeking the protection, instead of
standing on her own bottom, os, before that time,
she had always stood.
his was all done for party purposes of the vilest
most revolting nature. It was done to secure
’otes of the South for Martin Van Buren, the
very man whom above all others, the Locofocos are
most wide-mouthed at this time in abusing. To
aid his nomination and election, the self-reliance of
the South was destroyed, and she was taught
consider herself as little better than a colony. The
course of the “ Allies” towards her has ever
been one of deception or insult. But for the belief
that these “ Northern Allie*" would have as
the South in establishing slavery in Califomi
New Mexico, the late war would have had few
friends in this section of tho country. The Sooth
never would have consented to the introduction of
more territory, if it had dreamed that it was all to

Hon. John Gayle—Dear SirI have your let
ter of the 15th instant, but my official duties have
been so pressing that I have been compelled to ne
glect tny private correspondents. 1 had ah
as you desire some information for your own satis
faction in regard to the charges brought against me
from the South, on the slave question, I bavo con
cluded to state briefly my position.
While 1 was in Congress, there was much agi
tation on tlie right ol petition. My votes will doubt
less be found recorded uniformly in favor of it. The
rule upon which I acted was, that every citizen
presenting a respe.-tlul petition to the body th;
by the constitution had the power to grant nr rt
use the prayer of it, was entitled to be heard; and
should be granted ; but if wrong
it should be denied. I think all my votes, whether
on the reception ol petitions nr the consideration of
resolutions, will be found consistent with this rule.
I have none of my Congressional documents here,
they being at my former residence in Buffalo, nor
have I access to* any papers or memoranda to re
fresh my recollection; but I think at some time while
in Congress I took occasion to state in substance
my views on the sut^ect of slavery in the States.
Whether the remarks were reported or not I am
unable tossy, but the substance was, that I regard
ed slavery as an evil, but one with which the na
tional government has nothing to do. That by the
constitution of the United States, the whole power
over that question was vested in the several Statei
where the institution was tolerated. If they re
garded it as a blessing they had a constitutional
right to enjoy it, and if they regarded it
tliey had the power, and knew best how to apply
the remedy. I did not conceive that Congress had
any power over it, or was in any way responsible
for its continuance in the several States where it! be tlie victims of their ni
existed. I have entertained no other sentiments . t j, 0 no , e *»

and indignant subjects.
KEEP IT BEFORE THE PEOPLE,
That General Cass labored to plunge our country
into a bloody, expensive, and terrible, war with
England in regard to Oregon.
KEEP IT BEFORE THE PEOPLE,
That General Cass was in lavor of the war with
Mexico, which has cost us 200,000,000 millions of
dollars, and thousands of valuable lives.
KEEP IT BEFORE THE PEOPLE,
That General Cass, contrary to the spirit of our
institutions, and the counsel of Washington ; is in
favor ol making war upon foreign nations for the
purpose of robbing them of their territory.
KEEP IT BEFORE TIIE PEOPLE,
That General Care voted a censure upon that brave
for; Mr. Buchanan a “ blue Federalist," wishing “if
lie had a drop of Democratic blood in his veins, to
tap them and let it out”—since a Democratic Sen
ator; McLane, Carroll, Taney, and a host of Fed
eralists—how many since, have held prominent offi
ces among the Democracy ; Gen. Cass himself,
now their candidate for tbe Presidency, once a Fed
eralist, “ wearing the Black Cockade.” But I
will say nothing more ol Federalism, Mr.Ritchie has
nothing to brag of. 1 will therefore notice his
charge, 1 “Apostacy”— Ritchic-apoetacj. Was there
not once a lime when Whig orators—when friends
ol the Bank were quoting this now*“Procrustes
of Democracy”—when h * deprecated Gen. Jack-
j son's election as a curse to the country, as too little
of a statseniun, who could not interpret the plain ex
pression of one law—and now this jewel consistent,
worship* Jackson as the “chief of glory, tlie idol of
Democracy”—and supposed that to rattle the bones
of tlie departed hero over the • great unterrified,”
will accomplish more than all else beside. But I will
say nothing more of Mr. Ritchie, as nono claim
consistency for him. Has Gen. Cass been consis
tent ? Has he drawn a line and always followed
it? In one part of his letter ol acceptance, he en
dorses tho Resolutions of tlie National Convention
as being his “ political faith;” and in the same letter

deny it.
KEEP IT BEFORE TIIE PEOPLE,
That General Cass cannot get the vote of tlie South,
because he is not sound on the subject of slavery.

That General Cass did not break hit* sword at Hull's
surrender; but that Col. McArthur was the man,
and again we clr<tllen|*e a denial,
clear expression of my views respecting them,
any thing further 1 might now say, would be mere
delusion.” There is a very wide (or has been)
difference between his “ opinions” and these reso
lution*. But the mouth (in which he thought lie
could take Mexico) has been opened and the Demo
cratic platform, sw eet or bitter, has been swallowed.
One of Ihe resolutions says, “ that the American
Democracy place their trus* in the intelligence,the
patriotism, and tho discriminating justice of the
American people,” (good Whig sentiment). To
this resolution, I suppose tho General answers—I

Again. “ Resolved, That the Constitution does
not confer upon the General Government, the pow-
erto commence and carry on a general system of
Internal Improvements.” To which tho General
replies—this, gentlemen, is the most absurd of your
resolution*. In ’44, you were directly opposed to
any Internal Improvement whatever ; but now to
cover political sin 'tis “a general system” you op
pose. You are well aware that the late Internal
Improvement hill received tlie vote* of many Dem-
ocruts—you remember Mr. Polk once thought In
ternal Improvements “ were calculated to promote
the agricultural, commercial and manufacturing
interests of the country—that Mr. Calhoun advised
the construction of National Turn-pikes b, the (ie-
neralGuveriiment—that General Jackson’s adminis
tration appropriated $10,582,882 for Internal Im
provements, a murli larger amount than Jefferson
or Monroe's administration did—that President
Polk reccouiinended appropriations for harbors,
roads and rivers. You know that the Western pa-
