Two tier of tables, the entire length of Grif fin’s extensive warehouse, groaned with the boun tiful and rich fare provided. A. II. Clmppcll, Esq. officiated as President of the day—assisted by C. W.

The tables, long as they were, were entirely surrounded, almost every scat being occupied—and no lack of provisions at liquors found.

The 4th regular Toast was prefaced by die Presi dent of the Day in a short and thrilling speech, iu which he adverted 1 to the sacrifices wade by the Vo lunteers, in nobly responding to the call of their coun try in maichiug to lhe ( l<a;tle-£c!d—and the hardships and privations they had undergone,—where nothing was to be gained but perils and disappointments.— After the Toast had been drunk, and the cheering i vhicli it and the remarks of the President called forth, lad subsided, Capt.

North ern fanatics and ill-judging philanthropists have sym pathized so much over the fate of the poor Indian, aud told the tale of his wrongs with so much pathos and eloquence, that he at last, stolid as he is, is made to believe it! And in this belief, and in die confidence of sympathy mid assistance from his northern friends, lie has seized the tomahawk, the scalping knife and the rifle, and is dealing death, ruin and desolation a- rouud him We arc among those who have always believed and said, that the worst enemies of the Indiaa race were those misjudging friends, who tvere continually harp ing upon Indian wrongs und Indian rights. They have brought about a slate of tilings they might have foreseen—hundreds of their own flesh and blood have been murdered; and the Indians themselves will be Hjorg rigorously treated, ill consequence ot their mis placed sympathies If Abolitionism i* not suppressed, a more dreadful scene than that now presented on our Indian frontier, will at no distant day be enacted throughout the entire rioulli. Misplaced sympathy for the poor slave, like that for the poor Indian, will excite in him a feeling of rcTenge. and it may not be long before the bloody tra gedy of St Domingo is rcbersed among us. Can the South then be blamed, for wishing the several States to put down the Abolitionists within their respective limits? From al! we can gather, Abolition societies arc mul tiplying in tfie State of New York: and their doctrine ^spreading, proportionate to the increased number nnd wealth and influence of their societies. The Ab olitionists themselves are countenanced and cherished by the people of that State, and their incendiary pro ceedings openly winked at. How ridiculous.' now iusulting then, appears their second resolution ! Let the SoulliJook to it. She con expect nothing from the anti-slave Slates—her safety is in her own ilunce. her own resources. Yi'uircutiiitrynicn call you to tliefii-M <ifh:ti:lr.: your chivalry, yo.pr patriotis and nil tint’s dear to fre emen, urge you Iu the field. Our frontier isi iv iiled, uml Columbus, that flourishing city, 'h<' pride of oik Slate, is iu imminent danger— already we see her citizens fleeing i t every t di rection ; her women and children seeking protec tion among u'.. Go. fellow soldiora, with a solemn resolve, not only to protect our borders, but o carry tlieyv «r into tile enemy's land, and teach our savage foe. that the day of retributive justice is af hand, when they shall ntuiic for the blood nud suffering of our people. The promptness with which you hav. obeyed the call of yoiir country, indicates the ardor of yotir patriotism, atm is highly creditable to you as freemen ; nud shows that you arc ever ready to defend your country’s tights at '.very sacrifice and h izard. To leave your farms at tha middle of tha year will hosinaktug a sacrifice ; hut your farms ami your families wilLuot be neglected; ♦ re is too much wealth, hcacvoleucb and religion iu Tal bot comity to permit it, and I pledge myslf that the wives and children of those who fight the battles ofour country, slutll never suffer while I have the menus to prevent.it. Dismissyqurfears upon that score, repair to tho- scene of war, chastise the vindictive foe and return to receive the gratirudoof your country.
