Mr. President, ladies and gentlemen, nml fellow- citizens: I am greatly indebted to you for the kind and hospitable manner in which you welcome the announcement of my name. It would no: be easy for me to do justice to tne feelings which 1 ex perience this moment in rising to such a reception as you have given me. You have truly stated, sir, that twmty-two years have now elasped since 1 had the pleasure of meeting my fellow-citizens o! the county of Essex on an occasion like this in this place. Twenty-two years! a very considera ble period in the life of man, sir. It is not without emotion, sir, that I now look around these tables —and behold so few of those present this day that tendered me a cordial and hospitable welcome on that occasion. I miss many a respected and many au honored form I would gladly meet here this day. Sir. I call to mind that venerated patriot Gideon Foster, whose presence on that occasion gave it so much of its dignity and interest—whose venerable form seemed to be the connecting link that united this generation with the fathers of the Revolution. He passed away and with him many younger men, indeed, who then stood iu the front ranks of active life. 1 believe I should speak the truth, sir, il l should say of those gathered together on that oc casion, more are resting beneath the sod o f the village churchyard than are alive and with you this day. But, sir, though they have gone—though men pass away—the fruit of their labors remains; the work of man, sir—the work of his hands, of his mind—his work in the field, in the factory, oil shore, on the sea, his intellectual work—“the word fitly spoken” and written on the page—above all, virtuous deeds in every department of life—these make the man, sir! It is not the coqioreal arm, but the vital action, the work of the immortal principle within, llie individual has passed away —the good men are gone, but the fruit of what they counselled, of what they thought and did, remains with us. But if, sir, I am inclined on this occasion to yield to some melancholy feelings in missing so many I would gladly have met here, I console m>.self in the contemplation that the memories of the good men remain. And, sir, the ranks, are not only closed up but wonderfully re cruited; and, sir, in comparing the year 1858 with the year 1836, when I bad the honor of meeting my fellow-citizens in this place—comparing those two years together, I believe we shall make out a progress—a progress not easily to be paralleled in any other country in a similar period in the history of the world. 1 might, perhaps, apply this remark to the progress in agriculture. I had intended to say a f.-w words on that Subject, but the gentle man oil my right (pointing to I)r. George 13. Lur ing, the orator of the day) was so entertaining and instructive in another place, and your excellent President on my left, has spoken from such practi cal knowledge in several departments of agricul ture as to make it supcrtluous, almost impertinent, for me to say anything on the subject, I will rather, follow ing the train of reflection you have sug gested to me in recalling the recollections of my former visit—I will rather attempt in some larger respects to point out the progress made by tho country in these two and twenty years. (Ap plause.) In the first place, then, in the mere point of population, have you considered that within those two and twenty years the population of these United States lias nearly doubled? Have you re flected upon the significant fact that is contained iu these few words—the population lias nearly doubled!—that another America has sprung into existence, not only to take the place of those who have passed from the scene, but to add more than ten millions to the aggregate. Sir, I understand these figures. The population in 184(1—the first census after my former visit—in round numbers amounted to seventeen millions. In 185b the population in round numbers was twenty-three millions: and in 1860, by the past estimate, we can make the population to be thirty millions. Three millions of these may be taken as immigrants to whom our vast domain has furnished a home and refuge from the destitution and oppression of Europe; but the other ten millions are native to the soil, bone of our bone, flesh of nur flesh—fellow- citizens and brethren. (Loud applause.) Ten millions of brethren added to tli" population! Mr. President, what achievement of diplomacy or of war, what conquests of hostile provinces, what annexation of foreign islands, can be compared to ten millions of fellow-citizens, natives of the soil —an added population of three times as many, sir, as the w hole population of America on that tmorning when Gideon Foster went w ith his men to Danvers, to Lexington, and to Concord.— (Cheers.) Then, sir. the great interests ol social life that concern you farmers as much as the navi gator, the merchant, or man of any profession— railroad communication. In 1836 communication between this State and Westward did not extend beyond Worcester. I attended the opening of the railroad from Worcester to Springfield in the year 1831). It must have been two or three years later that the road was carried forw ard to Albany. I suppose at the time of my former visit to this place there could not have been fifteen hundred miies of railroad communication in the United States. Now, sir, there are 26,GOD miles of such communication. I know many of these enter prises. considered as investments of property, have proved disastrous to those engaged in them; but what vast results to all industrial classes in the community have accrued even from the most un profitable of these enterprises. Then sir, another great phenomena has taken place in these two and twenty years—the naviga tion of the ocean by steam. I do say to you, sir, that I never, without sober feeling—I never con template the history of this navigation of the ocean by steam—but it seems to illustrate to me in the most striking manner, the slow steps by which a great movement moves forward for generations, for ages, from the first germ—then, when the hour is come, the rapidity with which it rushes to a final consummation. [Applause.] Sir, Provi dence offered this great problem of navigating the ocean by steam to every civilized nation almost on the giobe. As long ago as the year 1543 there was a captain in Spain who constructed a vessel in the presence of the Emperor Charles V., (I state facts of hut limited notoriety,) and in the presence of Charles X., and the court at Barcelona, he exhibited a vessel of 200 tons propelled by an engine construction which he kept a secret. But ancient documents tell us that it was a monster cauldron boiler of water, and that there were two moveable wheels on the outside of the vessel The Emperor was satisfied with the operation, but the treasurer of the kingdom made great objections to its introduction. Tho engine itself seems to have sprung to a point of perfection hardly surpas sed at the present day: for we are told that it was very expensive, and that tho boiler was apt to exjdode. [Laughter ] No encouragement was given to tho enterprise. Spain was not ripe for it —the age was not ripe for it—and the poor con triver, a certain Blasco de Gucrere, wearied and disgust'd at the want of patronage, took the engine out of the vessel, and allowed the ship to rot in the arsenal, and the secret of his machine was buried in his gravo. This was in 1543. a century passes away, and Providence offers the same problem to be solved iu France. In reference to this we have an extraordinary account, and from a source equally extraordinary— from the writings of a celebrated female, sir in the middle of tliat century, equally renowned for her beauty, for her immoralities, and for her misfor tune in longevity—for she lived to be 134 years of age—(laughter) the famous Mari«n do l'Ornie. There is a letter from this lady, written to her admiral in 1641, which contains these astonishing details. It is an account of a visit she made with the Marquis of Worcester—where do you suppose Mr. President?—“an account of some invention in steam navigation made in a mad house.” Marion de 1’Orme says in this interesting letter, that in company with the Marquis, she was crossing the court-yard of that dismal establishment, almost petrified with terror, and clinging to her com panion, when she saw a frightful face through the bars of the building and heard this voice. "Iain not mad—I am not mad; I have made a discovery which will enrich the kingdom which shall adopt it.” Well, she asked the guide what it meant; he shrugged his shoulders and said, laughingly, “not much: something about the powers of steam.” Upon this thelady laughed also, to think that a man should go mad ou sucii a frivolous subject - The guide went on to say that the man's name was Solomon de Coste; that he came from Normandy four years before and exhibited to the King an invention lie had discovered, by which, by the power of steam, you could move a carriage, navi gate the ocean—in short, if you believed him, said the guide, there was nothing you could not do by the power of steam. Cardinal Richiieu, who at that time was Prance itself; and who wielded the whole power of government—and, iu truth, an enlightened mau, as worldly wisdom goes—was appealed to by Solomon de Coste. De Coste was a persevering man, and he followed Cardinal Richelieu from place to place, exhibiting bis in vention, until the Cardinal, getting tired of his importunities, sent him to the mad-house There he was, sir, and there, the guide wentontosay, Motive Power.”’ Well, sir, the Marquis of Worcester, who was an inventor, was much inter ested in the book and incorporated a considerable portion in his well known work called“The Century of Invention.” But you see, sir, from this anec dote, how France proved iu 1641, as Spain proved in 1453. that she was unable to take up and wield the mortal thunderbolt. (Applause.) And so, sir, the problem of na. (gating the ocean by steam was reserved for the Anglo-Saxon race. Soon after tue time of which we now speak the best mechanical skill of England was turned to wards this invention. Experiments were often made with no success, and sometimes with only a partial success, till^omo time after the middle of the last century, so late as that, sir those germs ot invention w hich had been floating about in the minds of ingenious men for nearly two hundred years, until the middle of the last century when the steam engine—and mark you, sir 1 do not speak of the navigation of the ocean by steam but of the enjine itself, that scarcely inanimate Titan, that living burning, mechanism—was hi ought nearly to a state of perfection by James Watt, who took out a patent in 1703, that great year in which Wellington and Napoleon were horn—and ages after the names of Austerlitz and Waterloo shall perish fiom the memory of man the myriad hosts of intelligent labor marshalled by the fiery champions that Janies Watt has placed] in the field, shall gain their bloodless triumphs not ' for the destruction hut for the service of mankind. [Tremendous applause] All hail, then sir, I say to the mute, indefatigable giant in the depths of the darksome mines, ujpng the pathway of travel and trade, and on the mountain wave, that shall drag, urge, leave, haul for the service of man.— No fiitigue shall palsy thy herculean arm, no trampled hosts shad writhe beneath thy iron feet no widows heart shall bleed at thy beneficent vic tories. [Cheering] Sir, England invented the steam engine; but it seems as if the will of Providence she could not go farther. Queen of the seas as she deemed her self, she could not apply this invention which she had brought almost to perfection—and the nav igation of the ocean by steam, that part of the problem w as reserved for the other branch of the Anglo-Saxon race—the branch situated in a region in this western hemisphere whose territory is traversed by some of the noblest rivers that belt the surface of the globe, and seperated by the world-wide ocean from the eastern hemisphere.— It is amazing toj consider how, with the dawn of the revolution, the thoughts of men turned to the application of steam navigation. Rumsey Fitch and Evans made experiments,and those experi ments attracted th e notice of one whom nothing escaped belonging to the welfare of his country— I mean Washington, (Cheers.) And we have a certificate expressing the satis faction with which he had witnessed the experi ment of Ramsey. The attempt proved rather un successful. I rather think it a providential ap pointment that the ocean was not navigated by steam in the revolutionary age. The enormous amount of British capital and skill, if the ocean had ben navigated by steam, would have put in lu r posession facilities for blockading the ports which might Lave had a disastrous effect in a re sult of the whole contest. But sir, the revolution passed and independence was established; the hour had come and the man was there. (Cheers.) In the year 1793 this system of steam naviga tion became matured in the Fulton who found a libera! and active coadjutor in Chancellor Liv ingstone, who in that year 1793, came to the Leg islature of New York for an act of incorporation. Sir, I am sorry to say that America at that first moment could not boast of much keener perception of the nature of this discovery than France or Spain before. Chancellor Livingstone at last bad a petition drawn up of the act he desired passed. It was drafted by the young men of the legisla ture who, when tired of the matters of law, used to call up the “steam bill,” that they might have a little fun. Young America on that occasion did not show himself much wiser than his senions.— (Laughter.) Sir, nothing daunted at the coldness he receiv ed, nothing discouraged by the impartial success of the first experiment, Chancellor Livingstone persevered. Twenty years passed away before steamers were found upon our lakes and rivers, and at that time such a system of steam navigation was wholly unknown, except by hearsay in Eu rope. This application of steam he made a press ing necessity in this country; but twenty years more passed away before English capital was ap plied to that part of the application to which Eng land was so greatly interested as giving her access to the commercial stores of the Western World. But sir, I could not, when the news of the lay ing of the Atlantic cable cam**, I could not hut think what the emotions of Fulton and Franklin would have been if they could have stood upon the quarter deck of the Niagara as she was launch ed at the Agameminon ere the commencement of that electric communication which is the result of their discox-eries and which now binds the two worlds together. (Applause.) Now sir, to come back to the point from which I started, this g-reat developement of steam, this ap plication of the invention of steam navigation has taken p'ace since 1 had the honor of meeting mv fellow-citizens in ibis town two and twenty years ago- (Applause ) There are some other points to which I would like to allude if the time were not rapidly passing away. There is the electric telegraph itself; that was unknown but as a theory twenty-two years ago; it now pervades not only ex-cry portion of our country but of the civilized world; and may xve not refer with satisfaction to the part taken in this brightest and most wonderful application of the forces of material nature to the purposes of in tellectual communication, to the part taken by such men as Franklin, as Morse, as Field, and may I not add sir, that modest engineer whose name I have the honor to bear, and whose practical skill was so conspicuous in all the details of that op eration. 1 might come nearer home and speak of other things in which vast progress lias been made in these twenty-txvo years, and in our im mediate commonwealth and community own immediate dunghill; its vision may- possibly extend over a single State; hut, if it looks be yond, if it casts its eyes from Pennsylvania to Connecticut, or from Virginia to Louisiana, it im mediately repudiates its own principles vith miser ly selfishness and nervous alarm. Analyze the cry of protection as you may, and it can be reduced to nothing but a cry for “bread” from the federal government. What an idea! Great States, sovereign States, appealing to the federal government for bread ! “Tax the people of the Union,” says Massachusetts to the federal government, “ to feed my factoiy operatives.” “Tax the Union,” says Pennsylvania, “to feed my iron miners and forgers.” “Tax the Union,” say he protectionists in Virginia, “to enable our foun- ries to sustain themselves and flourish.” This s a new commentary upon Virginia’s doctrine of strict construction and State Sovereignty ! Can a State he sovereign which consents to appeal to a foreign government for bread and protection? “But this result” says the Philadelphia Press, speaking of the Pennsylvania election, “is not only an uprising of flit' people against tire betray al of their representatives, &c., &c : but is, at the same lime, a tribute to Pennsylvania feeling, and to tliat idea which is cherished by all our people —that of protection to American industry.” A most sublimated State pride must prevail, indeed, when a beggarly appeal through the ballot-box lo the Federal Union fur help and bread can be re garded a as “tribute to Pennsylvania feeling !” .1 Compliment not Intended. The Washington States says that it lias ascer tained, from reliable authority, that Hon. Howell Cobb, Secretary of the Treasury, was the Cabinet Officer who last year went into the Union Office and suppressed the explicit endorsement and ap proval of Gov. Walker's course in Kansas by the President.—The States could not have paid Gov. Cobb a higher compliment than by making this state meut, and we have no doubt of its truth. Gov. Cobb is a true Southern man and will, as long as he is in the Cabinet, see that the rights of his sec tion are not infringed upon, and so far from taunt ing him, for this act, we honor and praise him for it. It may not be out of place here to state that Go\\ Cobb has had a most responsible charge on his hands in the management of the Treasury De partment during a period of almost unparalel'ed pecuniary embarassment, but he has weathered the storm, and by bis statesmanship, tact and finan cial ability, conducted the monetary affairs of the Gov-ernment with wisdom and economy. He is worthy to fill the exalted station which he occu pies.—Macon Telegraph. Advertising.—I have always considered adver tising, liberally and long, to be the great medium of success in business, and | relude to wealth.— And I have made it an invariable rules, too, to ad vertise, in the the dullest times, long experince having taught me that money thus spent is well laid out; as by keeping my business continually before the public, it has secured me many sales that I would otherwise have lost.—Stephen Girard. Some people, however, by their conduct, appear to think that Stephen Girard didn’t know how to make a fortune, and think “there’s no use putting everything into tho papers;’ that their stores are enough known already: and these people will con tinue to jog along at a snail's pace, and are soon distanced by their competitors. There is skill in advertising as in everything else. Advertise ments should he changed often and their phrase ology altered, or they- will be considered as out of date. This is the age of lightning and steam presses. Sleepers must wake up, or they will be left behind.—X. O. Bulletin. Tlie Claque at tlir Paris Grand Opera.—The clla- queurs are exceedingly numerous in this theatre, and I had an oportnnity of gaining some informa tion regarding them. They probably number from fifty to a hundred, and occupy seats in the parterre, very nearly under the chandelier, where they ap plaud at the signal of their director, who sits in another part of the house. Any one can be a claqueurs, and the claque is composed of a different set ofpeople every night. If you want to be a claqueur, you must go to the cafe where they meet before the performance, and a ticket will be gix-eu you which will admit you to the parterree on pay ment of a franc—one quarter of the regular price. At most of the theatres the claqueurs are admitted freely; but for the Grand Opera there are plenty of people—generally poor students—xvlio are will ing to pay a franc for the privilege of listening to a good opera, though probably- they could not afford to pay any more. Of course it is not con sidered quite respectable to join the claque, though it must be confessed they were very intelligent GEORGIA LEGISLATURE. SENATE. Monday Morning, Nov. 8th.

They mistake who suppose that a favorite popu lar error or a pet political heresy will remain dead when ouce killed, or is ever content with one de feat and destruction. Political heresies have as many lives as superstition ascribes to the cat, aud have to he met, combated, and overthrown not only nine times, but ninety times and nine. It is the faculty of truth to rise again when crushed to earth,and survive through eternal years; but it is also the faculty of error to rouse itself often from overwhelming defeat, and to sustain as many knock-downs as a ileenan or a Morissey, before finally giving up the ghost. We have an instance of this tenacity of life in the resurrection of the old pet whig scheme of Protection—a scheme which commanded great pop ular strength when our industry was infant, weak, and apparently in need of the fostering care of government; however incongruous it may noxv be with the industrial vigor, independence, and pros perity of our country. Temporary relapse and depiession is one of the incidents aud evidences of a flourishing aud enterprising industry; aud it is during the temporary existence of such a depres sion in our manufacturing interests, that the old mountebank, Protection, has lifted up its head again, like Fulstaff at Shrewsbery, protesting that it is neither dead nor “embowelled,” and boasting a greater prowess and vitality than ever. The protective doctrine is now presented to the country in a more ingeniuous form than usual. It is adapted in each locality to the predominant in terest aud feeling. The protectionist in Pennsyl vania clamors for a high duty ou iron ; iu Nexv Engiaud, he is eager for a thumping tariff on cot ton and woollen fabrics ; in Louisiana, be has a sweet tooth for a large per-centage on sugar ; aud iu Virginia, Le is airxmus to exclude Eugiish aud Welch rails by a prohibitive impost, and to con struct the Old Doiuiuiun's connexions with the great West with iron made only at Tredegar, Glifftou forge, aud Manakin Town. If the Penn sylvania protectionist is asked w hether he is w il ling to extend his principle of protection to the cot ton aud woollen fabrics of Nexv England, and to tax the masses of the Keystone State fifty per cent, ou their wearing apparel for tlie benefit of the Yankees, he will scout the scheme with indigna tion for its inequality and enormity. If the Vir ginia protectionist, xvlio proposes to save the tivo millions of dollars noxv sent from his State to England and Wales for iron, is asked whether, in order to do so, he is willing that the Virginia peo ple be taxed five or six millions on sugar and dry goods, be xvill reject the project with cliivalric dis dain. So, too, the Louisiana sugar-grower and the New Euglaud manufacturer would denounce an iron taritt as vehemently as a tariff’ tor their owu benefit would be denounced by the Pennsyl vania or Virginia protectionist Thus, the protectionist iu each locality is prompt to repudiate the principle in every application of it but the one intended for bis own especial bene fit. Such is the intense, illiberal, and exclusive selfishness to which protection makes its appeal. It has no catholicity of aim or instinct; it has no breadth of beneficence; it has no nationality of purpose or policy. The anti-slavery agitation was at least sectional; it had an amplitude that at least embraced half of the Union. But the pro tective policy is even narrower of scope ; it is con temptibly lo- - al; its aspirations are contracted looking set of people, aud applauded iu excellent taste, and always at the right time, but ivith a monotonous, heartless clap iu unison, a la machine. The audience generally seem disposed to look upon the claque as a conx’enience: for, as my com panion said, “they are much more familiar with the operas than xve; their ieader is a mail of excel lent taste; they always applauded at the proper place: ami in sport, save other people much trou ble and kidglox'es.”—Paris Car. of Dwight’s Jour nal. Romantic Marriage.—A romantic marriage came off as Beaufort, N. C., on Wednesday evening. A coasting steamboat put into that port, anil the cap tain being taken sick, took rooms at one of the hotels, The landlord, it seems, had an interesting daughter, who. from sympathy, woman like, took an interest in the captain, and problably adminis tered to his wants among strangers. The gallant captain was not callous to such divine attribu tes. Sympathy ripened into friendship, friendship into love, and, as above stated, on Wednesday evening, while the parent of the good Samaritan were in blissful ignorance of what was about to take place, they were married, and after an ac quaintance of but a few days. A “native” who had long wooed the fair maiden, in vain, hearing of the good fortune of bis rix T al, got gloriously how come yon so\ broke all the glasses in the bar room of the hotel, tore up things generally, and it xvas feared be xvould commit suicide.—Xewbem Pro gress, Dead Letters.—The dead letter branch of the General Post Office lias just closed another quar ter's xvork. During the three months which termi nated on the 30tli ultimo, there were found 2720 letter which contained money, amounting in the aggregate to $12,921. For the quarter which closed 3oth June last, there were received 4549 letters and $21,498 in money. For the quarter ending 30th March. 2472 letters and $13,457 in money. Quarter closed 31st December, 21352 let ters and $13,361 in cash. Total in the year 12,- 102 letters and $61,239 in money. Europe. KANGAROO.
