Columbus, March I,l^0 —wtf ®le Cukmtes ilirttf Wmm, • 1 j a COLCMBU, TIEBDAT, Al LIST 14. IMO. a lima. Howell (obb's Speech. Hon. llowoll Cobb addressed tbs citicer.s of Columbus vu Saturday, lb* Uth iust., in aualab • cals, i'eooise aad argumeut, upon the notilioal L>pw*s of the day. It was no xlaf-trap, >ut an able, deep speech, wbirlt ought to have int conviction u> every cue who heard it. It was •t spooch addressed to the intellect aud uotto the passions or prejudices of men. No attempt will >o made in this briel outliuo of his spoeoii to l\*l low the distioguished speaker through his whole Argument, hut simply few of the points touched upon, lie began bjr tracing the origin of the re cent difficulties in the Democratic party, uud the date when the opposition to the doctrine of protec tion was first made known. When it was that Mr. Dotiglassaw the seeds of disunion in the plain Constitutional principle that it was the duty of Congress to protect alike the properly of each citi sea of this great commonwealth. That when Mr. Huehaaan inaugurated Presidout and took the <>ath of office at the cast end of the Capitol, he announced the very principles as the cardinal doctrines of the Democratic party, and which should govern his administration, for the enunci ation of which Mr. Donglsta denounces him to day. That if Mr. Douglas was the patriot and statesman that his friends would make l.itu, it was then his duty to have announced to the coun cry this fatal dogma of the Democratic creed, and uegan then the war upon the administration.— Not so, however. None so warm and cordial to wards the administration a> Mr. Douglas, and none who received more favors from it for twelve months. The speaker then reviewed the history of the passage of the Kansas bill. Showed the agreement between the North and South at tha time. That many Northern Democrats believed that slavery was in derogation of oommou right, and that the Constitution did uot carry it into the Territories of the Country, On the other hand, the South contended that under the Constl tuution every citizen of the Ini ted State* could carry his property to the common Territories and there it would be protected. That Geu. Cas* was among the first class mentioned. That all agreed to leave this question of Constitutional power to tbs Supreme Court. That the Supreme Court bad decided the question in favor of protection. That Geu. Lass, like a true atatexmau, rtood by the agreement and acquiesced in the decision. - That Mr. Douglas opposed it, and, though com united to the position, that if iho Constitution carried slavery into the Territories, no power on earth could prevent it, yet, he now says, no mut ter what may he the decision of the Court on the abstract question, the right still remains for the people of a Territory to decide the question for t oemselves, during their Territorial pupilage. The distinguished speaker here gave Mr. Douglas some well merited blows, and elaborated at length this point in his addrior Showed the decision of the Supreme Court to be : first, that the Con stitutioii recognised slaves as property; second, that it carried slavery into the Territories; and third, that the power of the General Government over this quest mu. was the power connected with the duty to protect the owner in his rights. #ho. said the speaker, denies the proposition in this audience ? Where is the man who will deny their truth 1’ It reatained for Douglas and his followers. The Opposition Stood committed to them by then* State platforms, though they were ignored in their National Convention. Mr. Cobb argued with a master h&ud the soundness of the decision of the Court; tha right of the sovereign States of the Union to equality in the common Territories; and proved that the Democrat ie party which supported Mr. Breckinridge, was h only party that stood pledged to carry oat the deci sion!) of the Supreme Court. Right here, tbr speaker showed the relative positions of Mr. Douglas, and his associate upon the same ticket, Gov. Johnson, upon this quest foe. By the testi mony of the former, he proved that the latter vi olated bis conscience and his uath of fidelity to the Constitution, in occupying the ground he dM- Uo quoted th following langUH” r. in Gov. Johnson's letter to the Committee, and Judge Douglas’ Harper's Magatine article in sup port of his declaration, to-wit “ Few, at the South, deny the power of Con grats o pass laws for the protection of slave pro perty in the Territories-’ / rortamly tin not.” HkKSCTi EL V. JOHNSON. “It is <i‘JHeult to cemeaive hoir a y per eon who believes that the Constitution confer* the right of j protection ia the enjoyment ot slay# property in tbo Territories, regardless of the wishss of the people and of the Territorial Legikiature, con ftfiafy kit rone<-itnce and h\t oath oj fidelity to I tha Conetitutioa, ill withholding JU'b Congres sional legislation as may he essential to the en joyment of such right under tb* Constitution.” STKPHKN A. DOUGLAS. This was <'oßCluilve testimony, the speaker contended, of the poor opinion Mr. Douglas had f<-r Lis trie ad Gov. Johnson, and those who held hts views. The difference hi their opinions was palpable. Mr. Cobh then alluded to bis attachment to the old Democratic party. That it was the last iiguneat that held the Union. That it fought to any hard battles'; aud he rejoiced that while it waethe last nf gl! jeirties that divided and broke to pieces, it fell ia a glorious cause, and forthe pro tection of our rights! The speaker received great applause as he spoko of the fidelity of the Breck inridge party to the Constitution aad equality in the Uuwm. Repelled the charge of the enemies to the Breckinridge Democracy that they acre for disunfoa, bowcd that if thi. were true, tho true Democracy of the North and all the Detn cratic Senators from the Routb and three-fourths of the Kepreeentativaa from the South were all for disunion. Thai as ha loved the Union in oth er days, an ha loved know; but it was the Union given us by our forefathers; it was the Union , that preserved the Constitution ; the rich legacy left us; it was the Union that acknowledged the equnl rights of the citiseas in eeeh State of the ‘'onfederacy; it was the Union that gave alike pretention to every man in bis property; it was ttie Union of equals, ar.d not of freeman on the •oe hand and vassds and slaves on the other! Mr. Cobb t-onoluded hi* eloquent speech, which we have not attempted to report accurately, but only a sow points, amidst the applause of the larf* assembly before bins. Hen Robert Toombs la (elambu* Hie speech at Mg hi Enthusiasm Mr. Cobb addressed the people of Columbus and vicinity n Saturday morning, the Uth inat.; Mr. Toombs followed at night. We will not re lort his line speech, lie dwelt upon points no alluded to by Mr. Cobh; showed bow John Bell upon every great question affecting our rights for the last ten or fifteen years, had Hood upon one side and the South upon the other ; how his own party deserted him upon these questions, even bis own State, through her Opposition Represen tatives, Zollicoffer and others; how tbu party fell between the two great organisations of tho day. Said the speaker, it eras the motto of a distinguished man, “principia non homineeprin ciple* not men; that it was more than carried out in the Convention that nominated Breckinridge and Lane : that party bad now before the coun try rRIUCIPLBR AMD mkn, but the Oppositon par ty not only did not get their priuoiples, hut hard ly got any men. He repudiated the idea that ho regarded Mr. Bell as sound as himself, as had been reported ; be did not look upon Mr. Bell as an abolitionist, hut thought his principles destruc tive to the rights of the South: laughed at the idea of *he Bell party running such an old fossil as Bell; Ignoring their principles, and that too TH K UNION OF TIIK STATUS.

And in any way or in any manner to yield the right of protection to our property, when under the exclusive jurisdiction of tiie common government, yields it to outlawry so for a* that goverhment is concerned, aud leaves hut one more surrender to hu made and that is the property itself. Again, wo dare not with Messrs. Bell amt Everett, evade such nn is sue, since evaaion under tho circumstuuce* in which the South find* herself, is to give up the right. Their plntforiu is the platform of every man of every party, and of any man and of any priuoiples. it means, if it means anything, too much; and remind* me of the clown's coat, who, after puttfog it on and wrapping it all around him said, “it bad too much fit.” Their election, so far as tbu great and main question is concern ed, would fix nothing nml settle nothing. Or taiuly, so far as the claim of equal protect ion t<> ourproperty so concerned, if it settled it at ill, it would bo ugainst us ami agaiust tbo right.
