We have devoted a large share of our paper

interest, deeply interest most Of our readers.
This great meeting Of $4,000 freemen, was not
the result of party drill no mere party excite
ment would have drawn together SO many
thousands, collected from every State in the
Union. This Convention was not an assem-
bly, Of Office holders, laboring to perpetua,e
their power but an assembly Of men who
felt that their liberty was endangered, of men
who are determined to he free. And we
doubt not, the influence Of this great gather
ing will be fel, for good, through the extrem-
ties OF the land.
The proceedings Of the Van Buren, Conven-
ton held at the same place on the 9Th inst.
are not without interest, even TO the wings
They show the party to be in a state which
encourages the wings to nope for the most
complete success to crown their patriotic CT.

the cunning of the Fox, Qhe ruling passion

the party feels that his foundation is lettering
that his deares, anticipaions are in danger o.
being utterly bligh,ed, and his expectations
scattered TO the winds. In short Mr. Van Blu

that the people cannot be much longer gulle6
by his policy or his arts and that they vii
no longer submit tamely TO his attempts Il
mislead them.

SATURDAY.. Nav 9Th.
The House was engaged during The whole
day in the consideration Of the bill To ensure
the moe faithful collection OF the revenue
from imports. The debate was very able,
and perfectly good-naiured and parliamentary.
The principal subject Of the debate was the
amendmen, TO the Sd section of,he bill. Both
the original section and the substitute propos-
ed 10y Mr. ADAMS were strongly objected to 10y
several gentlemen. The amendment provi les
that "whenever a suit against any collector or
other officer of the customs, for the seizure of
goods, wares, or merchandise, unlawfully
imported into the United States, or forfeited
for the unlawful entry of the same, shall be
tried in any court OF the Unit ID States, in
which suit is involved any question of duties
on impurtations Of goods, wares, or mcrchan-
die. no person having the same interes, with
that of the party to the suit, in the question at
ISSUE shall bc competent as a witness on such
trial, unless called to testify by the adverse
party"
II was objected 10 the proposition that II
was subversive of the common law and Of In
divdual rights. A long and learned argurncn,
followed on the legal question, in which
messrs Hoffman, Adama. Sereoapt, LincolH,
Briggs, vanderpool and others took part.
