Notwithstanding tho Inclemency of tho woollier on Tiicsday last, a largo number of tho gttizons of Wilkes assembled in tills place to hear tho vlows of our distinguished Sena tor on tho prcsuut slato of political afiklrs.— Never liavo wo wltnossod such an attentive andleiico ns tlio ono on this occasion j It scouted as If all wore eager to Caleb orory word which full from tlio Hon. gentlemen's lips?

For nearly two hours (ills attentive audl- onco listened to tho remarks of Mr. Toombs. Ho began.by .rovlowlng tlio position occupied by liimsolf for tho past two yoars, that ho had not changed a single lota, bat was ready now, as hu has always been, to glvo Ills sup port to tho mon who would plant thomsolvcs upon the broad princlplos of tho Constitution and the country. Alter rovlowlng tho position of parties for tho (last two years, Mr. T. then spoko of the three candidates Ibr tlio Presidency, now be fore tlio American pcoplo. Ho commenced with Ocn. Scott, showing most conclusively that ho had no claims whatovor upon Ills fol- Wu >nu— thav nuipunsiunr station, p spoko of him ns a great Gonoral, admired his achievements in nrms against tho British, tlio Indians and tlio Mexicans; that ho was tho last ono that would pluck a single laurel front his military fiimb. On (his point Mr. Toambs was very cloquont, and paid a just tribute to him as a military ijliteftlan, and that tees alt could ho sold .for him. Gon. Scott was the flco-soli cnndldnto—ho was for .tho annexa tion of Canada—hut not for any more sinvo territory—tills Mr. T. was bitterly opposed to, nnd recommended nil who lliought it a mor al duty to froo tholr slaves, to voto for Scott. Tho IJon. Senator nott' reviewed tho po ll tten] courso of Gon. l’loroo. . Ilo said noth ing disparaging towards tliat gentleman, but on the contrary, s|ioko oflilm as a very con sistent man in all his Congressional career; that ho had always noted with tho South, nnd was tho safest man (oil tlio slavory ques tion) North of Mason nnd D|xpu’a_Uniu_TCn .... . i. roimetl Coo Democratic candidate too highly '; for wo bollava there nro many men North of that lino as sound ns Gen.

Hut when ho stated that tfio contest between tho two parties scciuod to bo wliothor our next Prosidont.should bo a big Gonoral or a littlo General, a fainting General or a sure enough General, they wero non-plus, and we presuino they burnt tholr months a littlo ill trying to eat their porridgo loo hoi! as did a certain General Oror a "has ty dish of soup." Mr. Webster's cluims werenoxt considered by Mr. Toombs. Ho gave his reasons for pre ferring that gentlemen nbovo tlio others for tlio CliiefMagtstracy. Ho admired him ns a statesman, as a friend to tlio Constitution; and contended that it was Wubstcr who stay ed the flood of abolitionism—who killed tho Wilmot proviso—who dared, lu the faco of tho Noitii, and iii dofianeo of ills constituency, whilespeakiug of tlio rights oftho South, bold ly to exclaim, “Oh 1 God, I will be just." Mr. Toombs paid a high, glowing and just eulogy upon the character ami services of llio renowned statesman; said lie should votu for him, and proceeded to show it was tlio duty of every true frleud oftho Unioo to ulovntc him to tho highest ofllco in their gift. On one occasion, said Mr. T., when tills country was being shaken from itseuntroto circumference —wlicu tho Wilmot proviso was bulbro tho Senate—and John P. Halo, that deadly ene my to tlio South, desired lo know If any North ern wan Jared voto against tho proviso, Mr. Webster arose from hts scat and said, “sir, am a Northern man, I was born ninld Hie gran- ato hills of New Hampshirg, hut thank God am an AMERICAN, I voteNO.’ It was then, continued Mr, T. that Webster stopped nobly forth? and battled for tbo South nnd the coun try; He concluded by expressing A wish Hint history might record him thu greatest man on ca rtli, and the greatest President oftho great est Republic on tlio face of tlio Globe.

And tho wlso men thou began to cast lots, for him wliom they wished to be a ruler ovot tliAif people. fi. And there appored to bo a great diversi ty of opinion, among thb wiso men, so that they began to despair of success; 0.

Nay, orled many of tlio wlso men, for In days gone by, ho said ho was notofus,—there is no Democratic blood in bis veins, or ho would lot it out. 0. Then Uio wlso men from the far West, spoko and said, lot ns mnko Stephen, who is also called Doi/oi.as, King, for ho 1b a man of great speech, and will promlso to do many good tilings. 10. But tho wiso mon woro afintd of him for they heard that ho was donblctonguod Hint ho bad taken unto himself a wife, that wm possessed of many nien-Mrvnnts and maid-servants, and would say to tlio Soutli nin your Monel, for 1 own slaves, and to tho North they belong to my wife. 11. And (bo wlso men proposed others, but none of them Wore chosen. 12. -And It caino to pniw aflor, casting many lots, there was a great calm, when a c-ortaln Jnitge from tho laud of kings, arose and sold, 18.

And tlio wisu-mon with one occord be gan to consult, and cast lots again, fora King. 15. And la, and behold, tlio lof fell upon him, whom tho poople thought not of. 10. And ns tlio days of their ministration was about to close; they began to speak with tnnnjMonguci saying, 17.

And moreover onr gallant King, when your honor was at stuko, buckled on Ills ar mor and marched to defend it, and uctunlly fuluted while engaged with tho onemy,—be ing Pierced with many pains. 10. And when tliu wiso had finished their sayings, and had feasted and revuled to their hearts contcut, tliey departed every one to ids own homo, speaking anil praising him, wiioni they would have to hu King, saying, wo liavo :phoson tills man tu rule over us us was our custom,—a man valiant in war—able in councils, end has no superior, nut in all America, 20.
