of introducing to those present Abe Hon. John
Bell, of Tennessee, [three cliters for John

Loud and itnperftt-ive* calfe were* then made
jor Mr. 8011, and as soon as tlm,cheering ceased “
I that, gentleman came forward to the balcojiy
and addressed the multitudcf substantially as,
follows:
Fellow-citizens: It would he cofitrary to the
feelings of nature if I diil-.nof feel deeply
sensible of which you have paid
me to-night. *A large portion of you, I flatter
[ have paid •me t.|iis compliment in ap
nroval of the proceedings of the Baltiiflore
Convention, which has just adjourned. [Fond
cheers. J 1 know it is impossible that I alone
can Have caused this large assemblage. I
been put forward by an assembly, formed, as I
tyn told, for the greater part, of pure and
distinguished individuals, patriots, and states
nnjjii a have oxer asuembh’d upon any similar*
, occasion ii? the United Stales. [Applause] I
know that 1 cannot have the Tjnaiiifuous ap
proval pi an assemblage ®likc this. Still I flat
ter mysytif that the large majority of them
have Tnet to-night to signify their appitibatioif
of the decision of the Convention. [Applause.]
I do “not appear before you, as my di*tan
guished friend did tfie ths jiKtico to state, to
make you.a tegular T-'peeli, either upon the top
ics of the* day or upon the issues which lutve
distracted and Agitated the country, or for any
thiigf elsp more than to express my Yimple.ac
knowleduments for the Ifonor done me by the
at Baltimore, and to tnanh you
tlws manifestation of your kindness and confi
dence in me® [Prolonged cheering.]
If ytju will to address few words

about wliyjh therp may be ®great ifitferenc'.'S of

call your attention to the causey which havejed

A gentleman js not merely a person acquaint
ed with certain forms or conventionalities of
life, easy and ‘self-pressed in society, able to
sptyrk, and act, a*iid move in the world without
.awkwardness, and frey fiqmi habits which are
vulgar and in had taste. A* gentleman is some
thing beyond this. At the base of all his <%se
and refinement, and tact and power of pleasing,
k> tire* same spirit whiy.li lies at the root of eve
n* Christian virtue. It is tlyfrthougklful desire
of doing in every instance to othetS as he worrid

alfudes to, never appears conscious of any per®
sonal dftfeet,* bodily deformity* inferiority of’
