I cheerfully render my own testimony to tho truth of that statement. [Applause.] It might have been more prudent to defer thi declaration until after a free conference with those friends in Kentucky with whom f have heretofore acted, and by whom my past career has been so generously suataiuud.

Gentlemen, I am familiar with tho poiniw upon i which the democrats have taHod to ngreo. They involve principles which I have frcquenily dis cussed, in Congress and out of it -on tlio stump, at homo and el#owh**re. I nm not now taking a “land for tbe first lime upon those principle*. I made, in 186 J, a somewhat celebrated declare tion, that, between James Buchanan, if be were tho exponent of the doctrine of squatter novorelgn ■ ty, an<l John C. Fremont, ns the opponent of Hi c’oerine of the Wildiot Proviso, I would not to#* up a copper for choice. I was then dismissing tlie Cincinnati platform before tbu people, and 1 then yaw the ambiguity which made it Janus faced -prc an ting one view to the North and an other to the Sontb. Boat hem Democrats aid not believe me. They denounced my suspicions a* the effect of partisan rancor. I told them, then, ; that Mr. Douglas did not entertain tbo same view of the platform they did, and that, one dn v or another, they would find nil tho evils which j could flow from such a persistence in maintain ing party line* at th# expense of important princi* ] plus, would “come home lo roost.” i must, bo , permitted to say I did not anticipate the rupture which occurred at Chorloston, and w:i# consum mated at Baltimore, it may sever the tie* which bound the democratic party together North and South, hut it is a homage to principle. It ex hibits the democrats who have nominated John C\ Breckinridge a* at last awaking to tho fact which I havo stated to thorn a Hiomnnd times, | and as ready to prefer Round principles to un sound party association*. I render them tbe tribute of my respect tor the ••hole* they have made, and I think their country will do tho same. Fellow■-citi*#®*, tho rupture of tho democratic party ha* taken place essentially on the same ground upon which the Whig party went to pieces and which afterwards rent, the American party in twain. Tbo ramo cause floored tho relation*of churches, North and South. Jt i* nor nstoui* ing that under it* force, though ln-t of nil, tin tower of the Democracy ha* fallen. It D evidence whieh a considerate people will regur I that itßr.i: is a wide difference of principle- of ourdina , i tal principle, that no force of party attf i :ic n can withstand, aud which demand) a settlement, : :al and satisfactory.

I understand the matter thu- After tiro vle.lc. gal met at t harleston tb’ committee on rosn lutions wa appointed, and in tlint oommitioo it wn - proposed to reaunounco tho Cincinnati pint form of 11 as tho platform of principles main tuinedby the Dcmooratic party. But a part of that committee, representing constituencies in tho slaveholvling State.-, asked that this ntuimun o s*:a it should he liy explanatory res ointions to this purport \ •*l. That Congress has wo power to abolish slavery in the Territories. Second, That the ter ritorial legislature has no power to abolish slave ry m iu v Territory, tut to prohibit the introduc tion of sluv es therein : nor any power to destroy or impair the l ight of property in flav-- hy any cgislnt on whatever. ‘. Uesolvul, That it is ihe duly of tho Fed eral Government to protect, when necessary, the rights of persons and property on tho high sens, in tlio Territories, or wherever else its eonstitu- 1 tional authority extends. • . That when the people of a Territory * omo to make their Stato constitution whieh is an net of sovereignty - their admission into the Tiilon should r. t depend on tho question whether they ehoo.-othiit their State shall he a slnvchold ing State or a tree State.” Tin*other part of tho committee refused to no rode t” the <• propositions, and, on tho contrary, i.'C .rrd to tho doctrine announced by Judge l*i-llv 1 whieh assert tho right ol the people •<r ;i Territory while in their territorial condition to lugisdftto so n* to oxeludo slaveholders from an enjoymentoftheir slave property in the Territory, and denies to Congress tho power t* extend to them any protection against such unfriendly leg islation. I believe 1 havo truly stated tbo points of dis - : u ncc which uniimatcly severed tho Convention, and havo presented to tho country the nomina tion# of Senator Dougins and of Vico President iJieekinrid u'. 11 ii* also trim that, from the rdavchuhling States, many democrats were pres i r.t who rein <od to leave Iho Convention upon In e points d‘difference, regarding them ns of im consequence: whilo others distinctly coincided with ami embraced the doctrines advanced by tho Senator from Illinois : and upon these points the latter promised the acquiescence of the people of the slaveliolding Slates, to bo shown by iho de feat oi Mr. Breckinridge.

Now, 1 suppose that thearnondiiHiirt proper to Ih- intreducedjfer tho purpose which has been signified hy Iho gentlemen who havo spoken would lie to .strike out those words, and to nay that tho territorial legislature shall have no authority to puss any for establish or excluding slavery in the Territory.- It appears to inc t hat I his is the up-shot, of the whole mut ter.

J tinny he a question far the people themselves to decide, because 1 take it to he clear that it i*n municipal question. Din a question for the decision of tho people in their State sov ereignty, ami there may boa propriety —in ex cluding tliee.xereUo of any power in tho territo rial government for the establishment or exclu sion of slavery, It ha# been advanced that I here people, whilo u Territory, have ii rigid to do anything and ev erything (hut belong- to the right* of man I cannot conceive that they have. Wo have id way* gone upon the ground that there territorial government# were in a statu of pupilago, under the protection or patronage of tbu general government. Tho territorial legisla ture hu . a Constitution prescribed by Congress. They Jiave no power not given by that Congress. They must ad within the limitsof Iho'Conutitution granted Ihom'Jiy Congres#, or else their act* be coino void. The people under the territorial gov ernment are not a sovereignty j they do not con stitute a sovereignty, and do not possoss any of tho right ’ incident to sovereignty. They are, if poll so please to donomiimte it, iu a state of iu clraate government and sovereignty. Jf we well consider thi. question upon tho ground of our pradico ‘luring tho In t half century, 1 think wo will find ono way of disposing of It.

It scorn?, to mo that that i~- all our duty. 1 shall most readily concur in anything which tend* to the performance of that duty.

I'd it or I'nquirer: 1 .--uggosted in a former number of your paper a lino of action for tho Op position party of Gonrgia, looking to a union in this State of those votoi ; wlm ..greed ;ipon the sumo principles. Jf my suggestions had horn adopted by tho Kxecutivo Committee of the party I seriously believe that tho constitutional democ racy would havo met our overtures with u curd in! spirit, and proposed a united electoral ticket, ba- S'-d upon term similar to those indicated by my sclt. It ‘stnio thnl 1 proposojl a course to ho tu kou by the Oppo*iUon w hich was entorply iiulc pon<lcu> of Democratic action iu the premise*; >et I believe that -0.-h a policy would, Iron) its magnanimity, so commend itself to,the Breckin ridge party that their J\\votive Committee would seek a union with u* iu thi* campaign.- The true eolivtilutioiuil theory i*. that the poo pie shall ehooso elcotor* in whoso \ivincijdcs, honesty and good judgment they ha\c confldciicq nnd that those elector-) shall select from among the iatesnunof the Inion tlnno who c principle# nocord with tho majority sentiment for the two highest others in the government.

IVhat a Ap< /<** chance! But if the Opposition nnd the Breckinridge party are united, then tho vote of Georgia s made per Icetly sure against Douglas, and with the certain !y of being easterca for 101 lif ho receive* I 12 electoral votes from other Staton. Thus you sec that the suggestion is not made simply to secure the defeat <<f Betl in Georgia, for it i* tin* only reasonable or probable chance for Bell, under any circumstances, to get the electoral vote of thi* State. Does the übjootion by any Opposition voter, to giving a contingent vote to Breckinridge, arise from any preference to Douglas nr any antieipa ted union between the 801 l men nnd the Doug las party? That question will bo best nu.-wered by the developments of the future. It is thought by some that Douglas bus no strength iu the Stare, but it will not do to rest secure in this opinion if we arc to believe our Opposition pre -. We read each work in our paper* that the popularity us Doiigla* is increasing in the booth, lint they ex hibit tin manifestation of alarm at the alleged rim— ecs* of thi- disguised free soili-m in .ur mids , nor are the Southern Opposition nod the Gonhti tiitioturl Democracy urged to unite together upon their common principle* against this treacherous 100 of .Southern Institutions. Why do tho Union men rejoice at tho increasing popularity t of Doug las. and why if they halo the Douglas theory, nnd behold his increasing strength, do they hesi tate •: help the Breckinridge men secure his de feat ‘ I* it possible that tho Opposition party en courugud tku disruption at Charleston, not from correct motives, but only to divide the democra cy, and now design to encourage Dougins, and assault Breckinridge, for tho same purpose ? I should regret exceedingly such duplicity among mv party friends. But. sumo of uiy friends object to the proposed union beeauso of objections to Breckinridge. If | their accusations be true, he is certainly until to receive the vote ot constitutional men anywhere . 1 but, while I do not constitute myself his defender, ! w will in a short space examines these charges, in order to sec whether it is indued true that 1 | propose to aid uu unreliable man for Iho South iualetul <>t John Bell.
