Harrisono i Damooratle Meetingo A much larger number than ooold be accomtnodat* edsasembledst tho Exchange last night. For a list ‘ of the speakete we refer to the -offlolal report of tho meeting. Several moet effective addresses were do- silvered i that of Mr. Surd, of Bryan county- a Scott Whig in 1881, but an ardent supporter of Johnson, Seward, and the admlhlstration now-was one of the most entertaining to which we hato listened for many a day; It is too late, while we write, to at tempt any sketch of it, or of the remark* ot other gentlemen, though muoh that was said is well worthy of being plsoed npon record. - The Indications were, we think, decidedly favora ble. Let the spirit of the meeting animate them next Monday, and the Democracy of Chatham will prove to the State how unjust is tho suspicion that they intend to prove false to principles and duty. «In uniting .to Foreigners, Jews and Catholics.*' The Augusta Coiutitutionalitt, of Wednesday, has a scathing review of a communication, denouncing the President, which appeared in tho Chronicle tf Sentinel, over the signature of “ Examiner." Tho Constitutionalist is inclined to aUribnte its authorship to Mr. Toombs, from tho similarity of some of its sen. timenta to opinions expressed by that gentleman. We wish we had room for tho remarks of our cotem porary, bat as we have not, we will content ourselves with noticing some of the matters of complaint made again&t tho President through this leading organ of the Jenkins and Bartow party. Wo premise by say ing that the article of “ Examiner,” who is supposed to be Mr. Toombc, is addressed to the President him- self. We beg oar friends in this city, especially such as are so unfortunate as to be either •' foreigners, Jews or Catholics,” to notice the offences with which this enemy of the administration taxes the President: 1. —“ Foreigners." The first charge is in these words: “ To* Insult the pride of Native Americans, you search for foreigners to fill office.” Fellow citizens of foreign birth! what do you think of that charge against Pierce ? There is, no doubt, foundation for it. There are, perhaps, men of that class holding office under the administration in every city of tho Union. Examples may be found even in Savannah, te which we should at once be pointed if we were to deny it. What, then, is to be done about it? Is it a sin for which the President is to be re buked ? Is it an unpardonable offence in him that he baa insulted “the pride of Native Americans,” by searching for “ foreigners to fill office.” If so, let our citizens of foreign birth rebuke him for it, by sus taining Jenkins and Bartow, tho candidates who run in opposition to the administration. The great effort of our opponents is to “ rebuke” Piebob by electing his enemies. If yon ure not willing that ho should be denounced and repudiated for the appointment of your brethren—men of your own unfortunate class, who left home and kindred in the Old World to And liberty In the New—then vote for Johnson and Seward—friends of tho administra tion, who stand prepared on all occasions to defend its appointments against these Native American at tacks. What say you ? Are you for Jenkins and Bartow, or for Johnson and Seward ? 2. —" CATHOLICS.” Tho Roccnd crime with which Pierce i? charged is thi3: " You (Franklin Pierce) have placed at tho , disposal of the Catholic Bishop a man-of-war of the Navy, at tho very time too when they (Catholics) ure attacking the freedom of onr educational system.” Loath as we are, and ever have been, to bring re ligion into political contests, wo pass by this charge in silence. Let it speak for itself. We only say that if for this offence tho administration is to be destroy ed, the blow should come from Catholics themselves. If the^ wish to indict it they cau do it by votiug against JOHNSON aud SEWARD, and for Jenkins and Bartow. 3.—“ JEWS.” Last H is said to tho Presidents “ You openly re ward a Jew for using foreign money to advance yout election.” Upon this charge—that of appointing a Jew—tho Constitutionalist remarks : Now U re tlie gravamen of tho offence is not that tha President has rewarded a partisan friend for using money to advance his election, but that ho rewarded a Jkw for do ing so. This is the offence that smells to heaven in tho nostrils of this Whig puritan. The sarcasm thus pointed at the President and tho Jews, has special reference to Mr. Augusto Belmont, a gentleman of the Hebrew blood and faith, of tine abilities, enlarged commercial Intelligence, and liberal fortune, whom the President, scorning narrow prejudices, sect, aud race, has appointed Charge to Belgium. We do not propose to offer a eulogy upon the Jews. or to defend them against aspersions or proscription. It is tin- necessary. The native Jews are citireus of our great coun try. on terms of perfect equality with other native citizen*. The naturalised Jew citizens are on equal terms with other naturalized foreigners. Thoy have equal rights, and they # ate capable of maintaining them. The laws of the land, * and the justice and good sense of the country, will com bine to protect and vindicate therli. They liavo their ob jectionable traits. What nation of people has not 1 But what race of men is more temperate, more Industrious, more regardful of the value of education, more charitable to the poor and tho sick of their own people ? How many Jew drunkards, or Jew paupers are seen In our streets, or our poor houses? Temporanco, industry, frugality, and thrift, mark their course, wherever the legal disabilities, which in Europe have bowed them down almost to tho dust, hare been remorod. They have, in Europe, in spite of op pression, furnished many great men to Oil high places In statesmanship, in war, in letters, and the arts. While iu this country Jews are found occupying some of tho high est walks in professional and political life. D’lsraelT, a - Jew, one qf England's ablest of living statesmen, lias ex pressed wonder that the Jews should be repudiated and sneered at by Christians, when ho whom they h»H aH 1,10 Saviuur of mankind, whose life was the subllniost example of purity and’ virtue, and ills precepts the most perfect code of morality vouchsafed to man, was of tho Jowish race. We havo uo comments to add. Wo will offer no defence of the President. We leave these charges, ouo and all, to be auswered by “ Foreigners, Cutho- lics and Jews ” at the ballot box next Monday. What say yon gentlemen—is Pierce “ guilty or not guilty” of some great crime in having committed the offences hero charged to him? If you say yes, vote for Jen kins • an,d BARTow—if you say no, vote for Johnson and Seward. ^ Itobt. Toombs in hla speech before the Convention that nominated Jenkins for Governor, denounced tho foreigners In America, who had by energy and native talent arison to eminent stations under the Government, as “ a set of lied Republicans, German .Jews,” Ac. Wlmt say you, Gormans, Irish and Frenchmen, are Toombs and Jeukins the would honor?—Federal Union. ' In what admirable contrast with the tone of Fed- edral Whig orators, and of the Native American presses, is the following eloquent extract from an ad dress delivered by Judge Johnson at Mercer Univer sity In 1847. We desire to call to it tho special at tention cf our fellow-citizens of foreign birth. They will And its author eminently worthy of their sup-’ port: Iu tho benevolence of Its policy, our government throws wide its doors to the emigrant from every land; and thou sands annually avail themselves of this asylum for the op pressed. They come into onr midst, incorporate themselves with our society and after the requisite residence and legal formalities, they assume the duties and rccoivo the privile ges and immunities of citizenship. They come ignorant of our laws and Institutions and entertaining natural sympa thies for the customs and Institutions which they have lert. Heretofore, however, emigration ha* not been sufficient to destroy the homogeniousness of our population. But the recent accessions to our territory, tho happiness which is enjoyed by the free citizens of this republfo, and the mis- erifei consequent upon want and oppression, which exist in the old worifl, must greatly augment the Influx of foreign ers to this country. In view or this, many Indulge the ap prehension, that It may introduce a mixture of population, •o different In tLelr political affinities, as to jeopard social order and thwart the legitimate operations of our govern- Ilarper’s BUgaalno. W« have received from Col. Sibley, who has tho periodical for sale, the October number of Hatper*S Magazine, In it the “ Bleak Housa” is oonoloded. The publishers announce that they will Boon com- mencotbe publication, in aucceaslve numbeisoftho Magaxlne, or a new novel by Thackeray, entitled, «The Newcomen t Memoirs or a Most BespeoUtblo Family.” The Ant chapter will probably appear in December, with the commencement of tho 8th vo!< nme—a good time to subscribe. to tha genius of our Institutions, and would betray a self ishness unworthy the expansive design* pf our Uonititu- tion. Others, again/ insist that our laws of naturalization Should be so modified, as greatly to prolong the time of probation, But this would not meet thejapprehended dan ger. For the evil does not consist in their possessing tho right* of citizenship 5 but rather in the fact of their Igno rance of thd principle!of our government. There is no, reforming and enlightening power In the denial or. or a pro- traction of the probation lor, the right* of citizenship.— But, on the contrary, rather a discouragement to reforma tion But extending to the emigrant the benefit* ot natu ralization law*, he reoeire* a personal interest In the gov- ernment: feel* that It protects hU pepwnfhbi character, hie indusury and hi* property.

Letter from Bulloch County. Messrs. AHitori t—Som* few weeks since I thought I saw a stratagem planned by those crafty Whigs to defeat our party in electing a member to Congrosa from tho First Dis trict ; and so, endeavoring both to dlvover it to our party and at the name tlrao to do battle in tho cause of Democra cy. I mado a charge on tho foo, with lnnco couched and vIsot down, wlion—miralite vfzti f—who should bo tho flrat to encounter mo In tho shock but a doughty knight in tho person or Mr. C. A. L; Umar—one whom I had been taught to consider as a very Duguescelin in the Democratic ranks. But thi* is an age of wonders, any how ! Well, gentlemen, In reply allow me to say, that in my first communication my words were, • As sentinels on the watchtower of Democracy, allow mo to apprise you.” Ac., meaning by scntineU, In the plural, the editors of the Georgian, of course, and not myself. “ As a sentinel,'’ was a misprint, as you will perceive by referring to tho original manuscript. No; 1 profess not to bo so vigilant or far-see ing ns to merit so Important a post as sentinel on the watchtower; but am only an humble and, I trust, a true follower In the enrap of Democracy. The gentleman rates me rpundly for, a want of vigilanco in not having discovered tho stratagem sooner, (tho dis semination orthoso piebald tickets); und states that it wns known In “Chatham. Cherokee, Chattooga,'’ and tho Lord knows where, long before the matter came to my knowl edge. Now,.the gentleman haa surely forgotten that we don’t all take the papers In this poor wiro-grass region— that wo have neither locomotive, railroads, nor telegraphs, as they havo in Chatham aud Cherokee—and that •• there’s mighty few of us high larnt.” At any rate, if I was late in tho discovery, I wns sooner tbnn the most prominent in the county, for I was the first to apprise General Cone nnd others of the fact, as they will testify. He goes on to say, "that 1 knew moro about tho matter than I would have peoplo believe,'’’—that •* I knew previously of the existence of those tickets, and whence they came.” To that I reply that, on my honor, I did not. Mr. Jns. Young, Sr., handed mo tho tickets in question a abort time before I sent you roy first communication, and he positively stated to me that be knew not whence thoy came,—that thore.wa* no lettor accompanying them,—and that ho supposed it piece of Whig manauvring. I appeal to him for the truth of this assertion. How then was I to know whenco they came, or that I was doing Mr. Bartow injustice? Ho says that “ it is well known that Mr. Bartow is absent from homo.” Indeed ! Why I was not aware of that fact be fore. Well, vie Bulloch folks must really bo excused for not having duly informed ourselves of the arrival^ nnd depart ures of such great men; for, as I said beforo, there are hut few of us who “take the papers." Greatevents might hap pen in this country, and wo be none the wiser. But wo have lately got to growing black-seed cotton, nnd I trust will improve betimes. Mr. L. intimates that it Is well that Mr. Bartow is not at home, or my hide would not hold shucks. Well. I declare, if there be so much danger, it is a lucky thing for me that ho is not at homo—that’s a fact.' To say truth, I could not resist the temptation of exposing what I considered fraud on our party, iu sending to Bulloch these Democratic-whig tickets—tickets that were “sort o’ bo, and sort o’ not so.” Other counties to which they were sent, it la to be hoped, will know how to appreciate them. As for the peoplo of Bulloch, they consider it as an insult to their understandings to attempt to make Bartow go down glibly with them, by mixing together on the same tlckot the names of Johnson. Bartow and Henry—just as children are sometimes induced to take nauseous physic, by smoth ering it in a spoonful of sweetmeats. The gentleman *• can’t go Seward.” itseems. Very well: but because he can't go for an objectionable candidate of his own party, I should llko to know by wlmt process of reasoning lie arrives at the conclusion that ho must needs support a whig 1 And I should think that when one could not possibly go right, that he was not bouud by any rule of othics to go. for the more love of going, and so go wrong* even, rather than not go at all. This is like tho story of tho man I hoard of somewhere, who, by hook or by crook, became wound up like n watch, nnd who. for tho lifo of him, could not stop himself until lie had run absolutely down. That would, Indeed, be a rich fltoro of impulse—sufliclent to turn a grist-mill. Hut It appears that Mr. I.. goes for Bnrtow ot all hazards. Now, I really think that Mr. Barlow should have been let nJone—his friends were ceitainly too obtrusive. TVhy. he declared that he could not bo prevailed upon, by no manner of mean.*, to accept the nomination from tho whigs as a can didate for Congress. No. not he ! Couldn’t tbluk of such a thing. But hy a deal of coaxing, at lust, with modest mien and averted eyes, he has been induced to act the maid’s part, say-no," and take it. Mr. L.'s objection to Mr. Seward is, that “ ho nominated himself, and then forced tho convention" that met at Holrarsville *• to confirm that nomination.” This, I suppose, is the -‘head nnd front of his offending.” If 1 am rightly informed, ho was first re commended by the gubernatorial convention that met at MUlcdgevillo, although, in the gentleman's “judgment,” ho is “unfit for the position ho is aiming at." He then announced himself as a candidate, (mind you. he did not wait to be courted nnd coaxed into the measuro, like his opponent.) and tho convention that met subsequently at Holrot-svllle confirmed tho nomination. They could not havo done otherwise, for they intended to nominate him anyhow. If thoy had chosen to nominate any otbor per son, Mr. Seward would doubtless havo acquiesced, and would havo “ come down." But, by-the-way, thisjs truly a fine compliment of Mr. L.’s to the HolmesvlUo CouveuUon, In assorting that thoy were “ forced to coufirm tho nomlna- of Mr. Seward.” What a precious tot of ninnies they must be in Mr. L'h estimation! Yet lahppe and pray that our friend Mr. L. will “ turn from tl^rror of his ways,” and not only oschew Barlow, but avoid even the apjiearance of running after the strange gods of whiggery. In supporting such an ultra-whig as Bartow, has the gentleman well considered tho issues that may arise during the next two years? Is ho indifferent? Can ho bo indifferent whether whig or democratic principles are in the ascendant in the national councils for so long n time ? The election Is close at hand, and It will of course be useless for me to ssy anything farther upon tho subject— not by any means caring, like an angry woman, to •• havo the last word.” I havo done—happy if I ahull have suc ceeded In ray humble efforts to neutralize the exertions hitherto made to seduce our Democratic friends from their allegiance Yet one more word. My friend Mr. L. scorns to think that I, as a sentinel, was surely “ asleep at my post," and of course deserved “ to be thrown ovorboard” by our party. Well, Mr. L., by hla own admission, had these tickets print ed at “Mr. Purse’d.tho Democratic h»ad-qunrters.” Now, 1 submit It for the consideration of tho gentleman, which Is tho worse, and which most deserves to be thrown over board by a tegular court-martial of our party, the one who l,a* unluckily becu caught napping at his Democratic post, or lio who, claiming to be a Democrat, lias yot gone into the Democratic armory to got weapons to fight for Whiggery; and whether, to say the least, ho does not doservo to be placed in the same category with 8auma.vdkr.

From tho Kufaula Spirit of the South. Revival* or itullgloii. News comes to ns from abroad, from many places, of great religious revival*. One has just closed in the Methodist Church, at Enon,Macon county, aboutsix- ty having come out and declared themselves follow ers of Christ. Just before its commencement, a re ligious meeting closed in. the Baptist Church ofthe same place, during the progres* of which, several inndo a profession of religion. In so small a place as Enon, we could hope, that, alter bo many have enlist ed under tho bannerof the cross, that few are left to advoente the cause of Satan. In Glennvillo likewise, nnd in Cuthbert. Georgia, they have had considera ble revivals. The result of their religious labors In these places, we have not ascertained. From many other places we hear of similar meet ing, and we trust that where they havo occurred, they will not be followed, as is sometimes the case, toy a deadening reaction, and moral apathy upon the hearts and religious feeling or tho people. Our ob servation in life would lend us to fear tiiis. Iudeed we have sometimes though that it is a natural result of religious excitements, os they prevail at the pres ent day. They seem to involve, at times, some other ngency than that ofthe Holy Spirit, nnd’to bo stimu lated by other than its divine breathings. Wo do not pretend to judge howCVer in this matter, nor arc we to be understood as condemning these revivals. We sometimes think, howcvcv, tijnt the Devil uses Christians themselves, not uuftcquently on such oo- cosions, as a means of hindering the influence of the spirit of God, nnd of thwarting the very object it is the design of religion* meeting* to accomplish. Wo have, at time*, seen what wo considered more of an anxiety on tho part of some, to increase the number of their membership, to ehlargo their influence, nnd thus become tho domiunnt ruling sect of n community than un earnest, heartfelt, nnd holy desire, fur the true and saving conversion of souls. Wo may be mistaken, but we have frequently been thus impress ed. This impression lias been strengthened too, by the fact, that we have heard of bitter complaints laid against some, who, having professed a hope un der the ministry of one denomination afterwards con nected themselves witli the churoii of another. Sucli feeling and motives the Devil never falls to turn to his own advantage ; they open a wide door in the church for hU operations, they bautsh the Influence of tho Holy Spirit in a great measure ; eat religion out of the heart, and never fail to iuduce lukewarm ness, barrenness, and rellgous stagnation in any com munity. Hence, we verily believe, one reason why wc see so many professing Christians who never produce “ the peaceable fruit* of righteousness;” ana so many re vivals of religion atteuded by so little appurent good in their final result*. In an unholy zeal for tiio mere enlargement of the membership of our own church, and the promulga tion of our own peculiar religious tenet*, we overlook or forget the true end for which the church and the preaching of the gospel were instituted. Wo lose sight of this, in our blind devotion and partiality to church dogmas, doctrines and discipline. We too often pervert or disregard the trim end of Christiani ty by an unwarrantable zeal to have others umbrare our own religious full Is. To change the heart, not to proselyte the individual to any Ret of tenets, is its aim ; which it seems to ns we often reverse. In tiiis way Christ, is often wounded in the house of his friends, and tlie Christian' Church generally reduced to tlie lamentable condition in which the Angel found the church of Sardis, “ thua hast a name that thou Hvest, and art dead.” Living lor Show Only. There are two kind* of people in tlw world, those who live for comfort, nnd those who live onlyforehow. The latter are more numerous than might be suppos ed. They crowd every condition of life, but arc often- cut found among persons in moderate circumstances ; and exist in tlie country as well as in the city, though more numerously in tlie latter. To keep up appear ances, they sacrifice comfort, economy, aud some times even health. Ambitious of living as handsome ly as their wealthier neighbors, nnd forgetting tnat people of sense never estlmnto others by outward show, they pinch, and pure, aud often almost starve, iu order to wear flue dresses, have rose-wood furni ture in the purlor, orgivc expensive entertainment*, instead of livinig within their means, nnd thus being always independent, they are continually exceding their income* nnd making themselves* slaves to debt. Nor do they, after all, secure that gratification to their vanity, which was the paltry reward for which they sacrificed so much. Much as they strive to out shine, there is nlwav* somebody, whom they know, to surpass them ; somebody who lias a finer house, or more elegaut furniture ; somebody who wears acostli- er brocade, give* a handsomer party, or drives a su perior equiqagc. A man must lie more or less of a hypocrite who lives systematically for show. If lie would look into his heart narrowly, he would find that, in other things besides his style of living, he was striving to appear what lie was not. A person cannot have a weakness of this description without its affecting bis entire character, even though it may be unconsciously.— Tho truthful man feels inexpressibly degraded nt seeming to be wlmt lie is not. He scorns as much to act a lie ns to tell one. It j* also, we fear, a mark of a trivial nature to live for show. Life is ton coherent a thing, and involves too many serious duties, to be consumed in a petty pursuit of appearances. It is ns if Boldlere, iustead ol deleading their camp, should spend their time in chasing butterflies. The wise man lives for his own comfort, for the good be may do, or for tho elevation of his family ; but never for show. He does not, however, imitate a hermit, by repudiating altogetber the elegancies of life, but confines himself to such as arc within his menus. He thus escapes being barrassed with bills, lie thus avoids the pang of envy; and he is secure al ways of knowing that he is esteemed for himself alone. The man who lives for comfort, gets the happiness for which he bargains. But ho who lives for show, pursues an ignis faluus, that eludes his grasp, and cheats him continually.—Philad. Ledger. Gov. Steven*’ expedition. Letter* from tlie exploring party of Gov. Stevens, dated at Fort Union, on tlie mouth of tho Yellow Stone river, Aug. 2d. have been received at St. Paula, and are published to the Minnesota Democrat. It appears that the train has passed over 725 miles of tho proposed northorn route of the Pacific railroad, and that the success of tho expedition, thus far, have been eminently successful. The Democrat adds ; We have tho most positivo assurance that Governor Stevens, on his arrival at Fort Union, Vas not only pleased with the country which he bad traversed alter leaving this place, but that ho was so fully convinced that tho great northern route combined so many ad vantages over all others, that its early completion had ceased to bo considered by bim as problematical.” Vicksburg, Shreveport and Texas Railroad. From-the Ouachita (Monroe) Register, of the 13th inst.,wo learn by a letter from tho engineer of this road, that the location ofthe section from Red River to the Texas lino is now completed, and that the dif- flcnltiesmet with on the preliminary survey havo been greatly Reduced. For a distartce of twenty miles that lino of location does not vary more than a hall mile in length from an air line; it has bnt four slight curves, making nboutfifiOO feet curvature; tho balance is on straight lines. These curves are bo Blight that thoy will, In practice, amount to very little or noth ing. There will be no excavations needed, nor any embankments as high as thirty feet—only 3200 lin ear feet of trustlo-work and fifteen culverts. No difficulties were met with in getting titles of-re- linqnisbment for tho right of wsy, these having been conceeded by the proprietors ofthe land over almost the entire line, without a dollar of cost to the compa ny. The engineer also succeeded in letting contracts to the planter* for clearingand grubbing the track, at prices considerably underestimates. Dr. Flournoy took the contract from tho Texo*11ne to the eastern boundary or bis plantation, a distance of over eight miles, and agreed to take the entire amount in stock ofthe company.

Ho pledged himself to an abolition society, In favor of Immediate action for abolishing slavery in tho Dis trict of Columbia, and for the Interdiction of trade in slaves between tho Southern States. Yet, under /heao circumstances, Mr. Webster was supported in • . Georgia, for President, by tho Jenkins wing or the >/ Whig party, and Mr. Fillmore had only a few months previous been the favorite candidate iu the Baltimore Whig Convention, of these very whigs for the Barne office. Mr. Dix has never taken ground in opposition to the acquisition of territory, because it was slave ter ritory. and has long since, been pledged not to op pose the acquisition of Cuba on any such ground.— Ill* opinions are less objectionable to the South than those of either Mr. Webster or Mr. Fillmore : Yet, tho Georgia Whigs, who were willing to trust tlie whole Government in tho hands of cither of theso Northern men, are denouncing the President, for placing Mr. Dix in a subordinste office, nnd decline that the appointment of such men, places the coun try and the rights of the South “ in great and immi nent dangtr." ^Cnn there bo any effrontery or hypocrisy equal to Letter of Gen. John A. Dix. New Yoke, Sept. 21, 1853. Dr. I. P. Garvin— Dear Sir : In my letter «f tho 3lst ult., I intimat ed that I might, in a few days, write you more fully on the subject to which it related. My objects were, 1st, to show, hy what I havo said on former occa sions, that I was not, in that letter, expressing any new view* on the puiut referred to, ami 2d, to sus tain, by reference to the past, the repreaentntions of puiiticul friends in your State. I should have written you ut an earlier day but for my inability to procure Home of the materials I required. 1.—ABOLITIONISM. The first great movements of the abolitionists in this State were made in 1832. To counteract them a meeting was called in September of that year, at Al bany. without distinction of party. Hon. Wm. L. Maroy, then Governor of the State, presided, and I, then Secretary of State, addressed the meeting and offered the resolutions, all of which, with a Hingle ex ception, were drawn by myself. Among them were tho following: >• Ilcsohxd. That, under the constitution of the United States, tlie relation or master nnd slave 1» a matter belong, ing exclusively to tho people of each State within its own boundaries ; that the general government baa no control over It, that it is subject only to tho respective arrnngu- mentH or the several States, within which It exbt* ; nml that auy *tteinpt by tho peoplo or government ofany other Stato, or by tho geiieralgovernment; to interfere with disturb it would violate tlie spiritoftlie compromise,which lies at tlie basis of tlu- federal compact. *• JtesolvaL Thnt tlie Union of the States, which under I’rovidenco lias conferred tho richest blessings on tho peo ple, was the result of compromise aud conciliation, that we can only hope to maintain it by abstaining from all inter- fi-rence with the laws, domestic polloy and peculiar inter ests of every other State : and that all such interference, which tends to nllenato one portion of our countrymen from the rest deserves to be frowned upon with indigna tion by all who cherished tho principles of our revolutiona ry fathers, ami who desire to preserve the constitution by the exerciso of that spirit of amity, whicli animated its framers. “ llesolved. That, we deprecate as sincerely as nny portion of our fellow citizens, tlie conduct of individuals, who ure attempting to coerce our breth;en in olhe.-States. into tlie abolition of slavery by appeals to the fears or tlie master and the passions of the slave; that we cannot but consider them as disturbers of the public peace; nnd that we will, by all constitutional and lawful means, exert our Influ ence to arrest the progress of measures tending to loosen the bonds ofUnlon nnd to create between us au ourSoutli- ern brethren feelings of alienation an I distrust, from which the most fatal consequence* are to be apprehended. “fiesoh'cd, That while we impulc no criminal design to the greater part cf those, who have united themselves to abolition societies, wo feel it our duty to conjure them, ns brethren of the same great political family, to ubandou tlie associations l»to which they havotmtcml.nnd to prove tlie purity of their motives l.y discontinuing a course of con duct. which they cannot now but seo must leud to disorders nun crimes of the darkest dye. Unsolved, That wliilo we would maintain inviolate the liberty of speech nnd tho freedom of tho press, wo consider discussions, which from their nature tend to inflame tho public mind and put In jeopardy tho lives nnd property of our fellow-citizen*, nt war with every rulo of moral dutv nnd every suggestion of humanity ; and we shall be con- strained, moreover, to regard those who. witli full knowl- edge of their pernicious tendency, cuntinue to carry them on. as disloyal to the Union, tho integrity of which can only be maintained by a forbearance on the nnrt of all from eve ry species of intvuslou Into the domestic concerns of other*. •• llesolved. That the inevitable consi-qucnco of the uncon stitutional and incendiary proceedings in relation to slavery in the South, must be to aggravate the condition of the blacks by exciting distrust and alarm among the white pop- illation, who. for their own protection and security, will be compelled to multiply restraints upon their slaves und tliu* increase tlie rigors of slavery. * •• llesolved. That tlie people of the South will do us great injustice if they allow themselves to believe that tho few among us who are interfering with tho question of slavery, are nellng in accordance with the sentiment ot tho north on this subject; and we do not hesitate to nssure them thnt line great body of tlie northern people entertain upiu ions similar to thoie expressed in these resolutions. '• Filially llesolved. That we make these declarations to our southern brethren in the same spirit of amity which bound together their fathers nnd ours during a long and eventful struggle for independence, and that we do. in full remembrance of thnt common association, plight them <>ur faith to maintain in practice, so far ns lie* fn our power, wlmt we have thus solemnly declared.” These* resolutions, which I offered as chairman of a committee, appointed on my motion, were enforced hy a speech from myself sustaining the several posi tions assumed iu them, as a mutter of obligation and duty.nrUing under tho political compact between the State*. My sentiments are unchanged ; and I have no hesitation in sayiug that nothing, inconsistent with them, will bo found iu uuytliiug I have said since that time. 2.—KREESOILISM. In August, 1840, when President Polk asked of Congress two millions of dollars (afterward* increas ed to three millions,) with a view to terminate the war with Mexico, a proviso was proposed by Mr. Wii- inot, of Pennsylvania, and adopted by the House of Representatives, prohibiting the introduction of slave ry into any territory which might be acquired. It was sent to the Senate on tlie last day of the session, hot wns not acted on. In 1847 it was renewed, and in tho meantime a large number of tlie non-slavchold- ing States had passed resolutions, instructing their Senators, and requesting their Representatives in Congress to sustain it. New Hampshire, Vermont, Rhode Island, and Pennsylvania, in the order in which they nrc named, preceded New York in their action on tiiis subject. The ground taken in Congress nnd in most of tlie States was. that, os slavery had been ubolished in Mexico, it ought not to be revived or allowed to be introduced into any territory she might cede to us, ns long ns the latter continued in tlie territorial condition. The right of a State, on coming into the Union, to establish or legalize slave ry, as a local institutioh was generally conceded. I have always considered it above all control or inter ference by tlie federal government; and on the 1st of March, 1847, in my llrst speech in the Senate, on tills subject, I mnde the following propositions with a view to tlie settlement ofthe whole question : “1 All external Interference with idavcry in tho State* is a violatiunjof the compromize* of the Con*lituti»n, ami dangerous to tho harmony and perpetuity of the Federal Union. ••2. If territory U acquired by the United State*, it should, in respect to shivery, bo left ns it is found If slavery exist* therein, at the time of the acquisition, it should not be tlie subject of legislation by t.’ongre**. On Iho other hand, if slavery does not exist therein, at the time of the acquisition, its introduction ought to bo pro- ’ lubited while the territory coutinucs to be governed as such. -• 3. All legislation by Congress in respect to slavery in the territory belonging to tlie United .States, ceases to be onerative when tlie inhabitants are permitted to form a State Government; and tlie admission of n State into tho Unlnu, carries with it. bv virtue of tho sovereignty sucli admission confers, tho right to dispose of tlie whole ques- tion of slavery without external interference.” These propositions I considered in substantial ac cordance with the resolutions of tho legislature ofthe State I represented, and they were in conformity to ray own opinions. It did not, of course, escape my notice, at the time I mado these propositions, which were reiterated in 1848, in the word* in which they are above given, and I think I so stated to some of my associates In the Senate, that their adoption as a final adjustment of the dispute would- bring Cuba into the Union, when tho proper time should arrive, as a territory first, and a State afterwards, without any question as to the existence of slavery in that Island. This, then, was the position of fourteen of the thir ty States in 1848—tlmt if any territory was acquired from Mexico, (slavery having been abolished,) it should continue free from slavery as long as it whs governed as a territory, leaving to tho people, when they should organizo a Stato, to decide for themselves what their condition iu this reaped should be. ThU position I sustained from 1847 to 1849. My convic tions of its justice were, I trust, a* sincere as the opinions of tho.se from whom I differed. I have never attempted any explanation of my action on this •question, otherwise than as my recorded speeches in the Senate explain it; and I am sure that nothing, will be found in them which can be justly considered offensive by thoso who dUagreed with ine. To the people of the State of New York, whose instructions, given through tho Legislature, I obeyed and defend ed, I have always been ready to account', 8omo of the 8tate Legislatures in 1848 went further, and passed resolutions agaiiiBt tlie admission of any future slaveholding State into the Union. I never isaented to such a proposition. On the contrary, I relieved It to be irreconcilable with our obligations to fibers—certainly to Texas, and it was inconsistent #lth my own views of State sovereignty. The long-pending controversy was settled after my arm of service In the Senate liad expired—1st, by .he admission of California into the Union, with a lonstitutlon, formed by herself, prohibiting slavery; ind 2d, by the organization of territorial governments or Mexico and Utah without pucli a prohibition.— These acts wore regarded, and generally acquiesced n, as a settlement of the whole question. This was oy view of the subject, and I have so treated it on .11 occasions. '\ 3.—FUGITIVE SLAVES. 1 have always acknowledged the right ofthe slave- •olJing States, to demand the surrender of fugitive f laves under that provision of tlie constitution which equires the surrender of persons hold to sorvice nr ibor, tho right of Congress to legislate on the sub let, and the obligation to pass an effective law. In a debate in tne Senate of the United States, on bo 26th of July, 1848,1 made the following remark*: •‘The Northern 8Ut*s have been repeatedly charged In hie debate, and on many praviou* occasions, with eram- Ion and violation* of the oonatltutlonal compact in their ctlon on the subject of aUrery. with regent to the ear- • ender of fugitive eUvee—the coee moet frequently cited- ' tie poeaible that there may have been *cme action, or 1* etlonju particular 8toto*, pot in rtrict eooqrdonoe with good faith tb«y ought to obeerra in thle nejwct.

I use the term law, In IU largest zenio. not only a* Including What Ira* been specifi cally decreed, but a* comprehending the general order, on the preiervation of which the Inviolability of *11 publlo au thority depend*. The law la the will of the people, coniti- tutlonally expressed. Whoever array* himself against it, excepting to procure it* repeal in the mod* prescribed by th# fundamental compact, commit* an act or treachery to the people themselves. “The law 1* the basis of all popular supremacy. It Is the very feature by which free government I* distinguished from despotism. To uphold it i* one of the highest duties which Is devolved on us as freemen, It is always possible that those who are intrusted with it* execution may err in the perfoimauce of their duty. They may employ un necessary, arbitrary or eveh wautoneeverity in enforcing It. For nil this they may be held to a rigid account. - But no orror in the execution can Impair tho obligation to uphold it, It must be understood, and without reservation, that tlie lew is to be inflexibly maintained.” 4.—TUB UIOilER LAW. In July, 1850, shortly after tho promulgation of Gov. Seward’s higher law doctrine, I referred to it in an address to the Democracy of Herkimer county, in tiiis Stato, published Immediately after, in the folliwv- ing terms: “ In the maintenance of principles, which we bellevo to bo vital to our honor and prosperity, let us not forget that we havo duties to perforin In a two fold relation, to our selves, and othors to our sister States as members of a com mon union, which we are pledged to maintain under all Its constitutional forms, and to our democratic brethren in this Slate, with whom wo have been associated In number less contests and trials. Our first duty is fidelity td the Constitution, lfwefalllathe observance of nny one of these requirement*, how can wo call on the people of other States to be faithful to it? if.aa lias been said theer ia Power above tho Constitution, hie will, no fur a* It has been revealed to u*. inculcates obedience to the government under which we live, while it it administered in accordance with the tundam-ntnl compact, submission to tho laws, fidelity to duties arising under the Constiution, and a spirit or justice to onr political associates. I am in favor of conforming to all its requirements and of carrying them out fully and in Rood faltli, no matter what thoy may be. No one of onr obligations under tho Constitution can be less Imperative than another. Disobedience to one is infidelity to all.” I btillevc l have In the feregoing remark* and ex tracts from speeches heretofore delivered, covered nil tho ground of imputation against me, including the proceeding* of the Baltimore Convention of 1852, which contained nothing of importance not asserted in previous Conventions except, an endorsement of the compromise measures as a settlement ofthe sla very question, nnd a deprecation of all future agita tion of it “ hero or elsewnere.” In these proceedings I expressed at the first meeting held in this city to rntily them, my cordial concurrence; and I was, du ring tlie greater part of the lute canvass for the Pres idency, in tho field in this and other States. It is witli great regret that I havo, for the first time in my lile, felt constrained to vindicate myself from the imputation of sentiments I have never entertain ed or uttered. I hud heard, previously to the receipt of your favor, that I was assailed by whig speakers in tho South as an abolitionist; nnd I was willing to leavo^ny vindication to time and ovents as the best corrector* of ull such misrepresentation and error.— But when told by yon that they were used as instru ments ot assault upon the President and the Democ racy of Georgia, I felt that no personal consideration should induce me to Remain silent. In connexion with the subject, I deem it due to myself to Bay, that liefore my letter to you of tlie 3Iat ult., was written, I had expressed to the President a desire to be reliev ed. as soon as the public convenience would permit, from tlie office I now hold—an office which nothing but the hope of being useful to the Democratic cause in this State, would have induced me to accept—and that I am not, and have never been, by any act of my own, a candidate for any other.
