on the subject treated of.n the subjoine
article from the "Stsr;" but this is so muc
TO the purpose, that we adopt 1t as our own
RAJ. Register.
Let erery Wing be at his Post i-Th
l6lh of November is the day appointed b,
law for the meeting of the Legislature o
this State. We hope every Wbig membe
will be here, ready 10 answer TO his name
The election Of Speakers, lei il be borne II
mind, IS matter Of great Importance. sDt
will take place on the first day. We woulC
call The attention Of the Senator's especially
TO the fact, that The Wings have bui sma
majority IN that branch of the Legislature
and II is highly important that every one o.
them should he 10 his seat when the roll is
called. The absence Of a single Senator
may give the Administration party un ad
vantage which all experience has proved
they would not scIuple TO employ 10 defiance
II the will Of the people and every nclple
Of fairness and justice Every Van Buren,
man will, We doubt not, be present aud no
excuse, shor, Of absolute tmposSibiliiy, vii
justify the failure Of any Wing 10 be at his
post, AT THE TINE.
Gratifying Picture If our Corntry.-It
must certainly be regarded as a most graft
flying sign that with all the excitement
which now peryades the country from one
end TO the other, on the Presidential ques-
ton, there is little to offend or alarm the
lovers of good order, or threaten the secu-
Fity Of Republcanism. Millions Of peo-
pie are IN unrestralned motion, and even
ferment. Frequent Conventions Of zeal
Gus partizans, attended by ten, twenty, or
forty thousands, aud listening for hours,
and sometimes days, 10 the most impas-
stoned, earnest and eloquent orators, are
held IN all parts of the land, and nearly
with as much order and quietness as a
Sabbath gathering for religious purposes.
No other country in the world could do it.
The most stable nation Of Europe would
reel like drunkard--would be convuIsed
with revolution, and drenched with blood,
IN such an experiment upon the popuace.
Think Of such Conventions in Paris or
London, with all their note Of preparation,
and eloquence Of speech, and YOU think Of
a revolution. TO the enemies of ropubIi-
can forms, the political agitations Of this
country may appear precursive of its end.
To us, II Is the most assuring token Of per-
manence and power that a great people
assembling, as is the want Of oars, like
waves or storm clouds, are yet so far the
intelligent masters Of their passions, that
they can deliberate and retire from the
most exciting gathering in peace and good
temper.-Philadeiphtu Sentinel.
TnoMAs MoBRIs, late Van Buren, Sen.
ator from Ohio, and who is 4 jealous abo.
Iitionist, thus speaks of General Harrison
aud Mr.. Van Buren, as connected with the
subject Of abolition. Ii will be observed
that he says =" tfeu Harrison, am ;oef
convinced is in feeling and principle,
more devoted pro-slavery man, than Mn
VAN BuaRN, WHO 1 BELIEVE IN FEELlN
is ANTI-sLAvERY.
1t may be true that the Abolitionists wei
graiifod With the selection Of General Harriso
as a candidate for the Presidency II so, 1t va
because Mr.. Clay was rejected, not that the Ia
fell on General Harrison. | am well Statistic
that neither Of those gentlemen ought TO be sur
ported BY Anohtonists. Mr.. Clay's famou
speech in Congress on the slave question has LET
them without hope as to him. General Harrison
| EN- well convinced is IN feeling and principle
more devoted pro-slayery man, than M, Va
Buren, who ! Believe, in feeling is unti-slaver
venture these opinions now, without giving az
reasons for them, which may however do
some future day"
What do our Southern friends think
this If Mr.. Nan Buren, Is in feeling a
aboi,tioaist ought the South to trust him
