I now am bunted down like benst of prey.
An armed troop of mercenaries, (Voin Yankee land,
Already scent nty hiding place. All hope is lost—
from allies of much vaunted courage, no help doth come;
In Georgia, our well trained troops have met defeut
Such as given by Wellington on field of Waterloo,
Alabama’s chief has to our cause proved recreant
And Quitman, the gallant \\ estern chief is bound in chains
To answer for allegiance to Don Lopez,
In face of magna charta and the Union’s laws :
Sir Greybeard’s aged limbs are held in durance,
And Sir Walter —our valiaut Coffin Colonel—
Where now is all the aid lie promised me, his Prince,
And where too, is Whiskcrando—the polished Knight,
That once valiant warred on Rio Grande !
And where is Buonaparte, the fierce and puissant chief,
Who plcdgtd himself to stand so firmly to our cause
Till night's pavilion covers all the scene!
for some of these a hempen doom now waits,
A foot or two of cord will close their jugulars,
Or they will ret like sheep in pestilential dungeons.
Hark ! the sound of footsteps ! Who comes there ?
[Mcreurialis entering in trepidation :]
Mercuiuaus:
fly nty liege, the enemy is close upon thee,
A moment's pause, and those proud limbs will fetters wear
Which human strength to break will not be able—
Our proud capital is now beseiged by land and sea.
On Southern border bristling pikes do barricade the lines
And Itip Van Winkle Rangers gunrd the Northern shore.
‘Ti# death, inglorious death to stay —to fly
l* but* sorry chance, but life is sweet.
Pruc* :
Alas, my friend, ’lis even now too late to fly.
Tlie niyrinidoms of power are at the door,
Remanding entrance. Oh fate, hard fate,
That leads a prince of royal blood to such a doom
A* that oft made for common malefactors.
Door opens, and the Prince and Mereurialis nre seized by
a guard of soldiers, in the uniform of Uncle Sam, and hur

lion. G. M. Dallas offered the following resolutions, ntid
supported them in an aide address. lie was followed by
*liialt Randall, Ksq. The resolutions are ns follows:
I. Resolved, that the Constitution of the United States,
which was wisely framed for the purpose us establishing a
’■ more perfect Union,” and ‘‘ to secure the blessings us lib
wtv” to unborn generations, bas fulfilled the objects of the
patriots who assembled in Convention in the name and on be
half of the people of the United States, ari l is entitled to the
Veneration Aiul snp|srt of their ‘‘posterity.’’
•*. Tliat in succeeding to the guardianship of Liberty *nd
file Union, which were achieved by the blood of our fathers,
we have inherited an iddigatioti to preserve them untarnished
together; Slid it would he <(ally base to forfeit the national
hi l j ndeuc-, *1 to fail a allegiance to the national Un
ion.
J. Th.V- the dfe es the Union Is tt slHetii’icd trust, and
bight to bo dear to overy Amoricnn ; but those citizens nro
-s{K‘oilly it* guardians, who, standing on the spot where In
dr|x ii lenee was diclared, where the Constitution was framed,
and where the Union was rendered more perfect, are ■stimu
lated to its preservation, and find additional motives for the
nerei*oof that pious duty, in surrounding memorials of the
the past; ard here, on the very groun 1 upon which our hc
roie ancestors devo.ed themselves to their country, we renew
t <filename cause, the pledges which they once gave and glo
riiißdv redeemed, of ”our lives, our fortunes, and oxr eacrtd
klßur.”
I. Tliat the Constitution provides that persons “held to
f'fvieeor labor in one State under the laws shcreof, escap
ing into another, shall be delivered upon claim of the party to
whom MK-h service or labor may be due.” For many years,
StJto legislation Contributed menus to carry this constitution
kl provuioti into effect. W hen State legislation was P> p* .ll-
H n duty devolved upon Congress to supply its place, and it
hi. been discharged in confbraiity to fundamental law; and
fie fTHurtmeiits it has adopted are entitled to the 6Uj*|v>rt of
Rilic whole nation.
‘■>. That our c luntrymen nre a law abiding people. They
to chosen representatives in the Congress of the
‘i nited States, {mi.vers of legislation limited by the constitu
tion; and they repose confidence in the acts of a majority
asu inncnstirate with the character of a republican govern
•tiK-iit. When individuals array themselves against the exc
•vUtioH of laws thus enacted, and by so doing trample upon the
fights of the whole people, they are guilty of ut least moral
•treason; an 1 it is the solemn duty of the people to rise up in
*' ,e, r majesty, and by carrying out the regular proceedings of
‘•heir representatives, to vindicate the supremacy and the
’sovereignty of the law.
*'• riiat so much of the act of Assembly of Pennsylvania

” “ the earliest possible moment repealed.
7- That fnrther agitation of the subject of slavery, which
■ ’’•s heretofore promoted neither the welfare of the slave nor
cause of emancipation, can be productive of nothing but
t-, 3- It has been adjusted by Congress, and with that adjust
it slumM lie permitted, incur estimation, to rest
