GREAT MEETING IN BALTIMORE.

The Baltimore Republican contains the proceedings ei an immense meeting of the Democracy of that city, held ill Monument Square on the evening of Monday, l7tf ut. Inc meeting, which was a most enthusiastic one, was attended by all the Ward Assoeia- tons of the city, bearing in their ranks hand some transpareneies and banners with sieniii- cant and appropriate inscriptions The ros- rum was beautifully decorated, and the rail- Ing the spacious area was entirely oyerhunq with branches of " oung Hickery.'' having lnterspersed among the branches innumerable lights, which gave cheerful and interesting aspect to the scene. The Republican says Ut IS impossible to give any adequate idea of the numbers who were present, or of the en- thusasm which pervaded this immense meet ing. The entire Square, and some consider able distance to the streets leading to t, was completely filled. To use the language of one oi the orators, there was 'a perfect seq Of heads; ;'-and SO indeed there was. It was infinitely larger than the former meeting held by the Democracy in the same place :-and if Aa struck terror to the hearts of our oppo- nents, we can but feel the utmost commisser- ation for their condition this morning.''
 The meeting was organized by appointing PHILIr LAURENsoN, Esq, of Baltimore, to preside, assisted by Vice President from each Ward, and four Secretaries Eloquent and spirited addresses were delivered by Col Be dlnger, of Va; Hon. Mr. Jones, of Tenn; Gen. Haralson, of Ca; Hon. AIr. Brown. of ind; and Francis Gallaher, Esq, of Baltimore, which were warmly responded to by the au- dience
 hlr. Gallaher from the committee on reso- lutlons made report from which we extract the following =
 ReSotUed, That we freely, fully, and en- thuslastically respond to the nominations made by the Democratic National Convention and in Colonel JAMES K POLK and GEORGE NJ. DALLAS we recognise not on- ly PRINCIPLES but MEN
 Resotoed, That our respect for the memo " of General SAMUEL SMITH, the Hero of two wars, will not allow Democratic Bal timorean to arnish his memory, by giving eountenance and support to his official slam derer, Henry Clay.
 The adoption of the resolutions was follow ed by nine hearty cheers for Polk and Dallas.

inl operation, and the people are about as well contented as ever they were.
 We do not see what-sood Mir Clay could accomplish; but we apprehend much evil would be inflicted His term would be the REIGN OF VENGEANCE. We have not the slightest doubt but that he would particularly wreak his vengeance on those Uhigs who have crossed his path during the last twenty years After using them as stepping stones to reach power, he would turn and spurn them away with his foot He neither forpets nor forgives.
 The chief pleasure anticipated by Mir. Clay Tn the 'one term,' is the consciousness that torture and slay as he will. the people cannot have retributive justice afterwards at the polls. And we predict, should Mir. Clay be elected, the Wing party will go to pieces
 Tn 5O days after the inauguration. The lean and hungry pack will devour themselves. af- ter they run through the catalogue of doom- ed victims.
 We should judge, from Mr. Clay's last Lexington speech, that those against whom the thunders of his vengeance will be first launched, and whose sutierings and final de- strucuon will afford him the greatest pleasure, are those Wings in office who refused to join the hue and cry against the President aG ter the vetoes. The mere fact of Whig having s'retained" office after Mr. Clay had publicly denounced and personally abused Mr. Tyler, will be sufficient evidence of his guilt to convict him. And if some of this class shall urge, i'll justification of the reten- ton ot their places, that they were, by so dolng, the better enabled to iniure the Presi- dent lnsldleusly, the reply will be. ''lf ye have labored for Us, ye have also had your pay, though it came from the enemv-oir with their heads, and put in their places those who have not been paid for their labor"
 Next in order among the victims of sa- crlice, will be that class of Wings who sus- tanned MT. Webster when he refused to re- tire from the Cabinet with Messrs. Ewing, Bell, Badger, Granger and Crittenden The next will be the old supporters and defenders ofGen. Jackson ill '25, '28, and '32, when he was so bitterly assailed by Mr Clay, and who, by some strange anomaly in politics, are now found in the Federal ranks They will be appalled, when Mr. Clay shall unroll his tablets and discover tQ them his solemn VOWS, of l5 or 20 years standing, to accom- pl1sh their destruction. In vain llthey threaten to abandon their party-Mr Clay Will be "one term President!n

From he Utica (NeU York) 0bserpe, WHAT WE ARE TO FXpFCT

Mr. Webster was invited to whg meeting at Memphis, Tenn, and being unable to at7 tend, sent letter ill which he says.
 " should be osthappy of an opportunft, of seelng so many citizens of the State fo- gether; but while this is impracticable. must pray you to tender to your assembled friends my sympathy and co-operation.- 1 HAT WHICH WAS DONE IN 1840, HAS BE- coMENEcEssARY TO BE DONE AGAIN IN l844 LET US DO IT'D
 Thus are we plainly told what to expect Tn the coming campaign. The FRAUDS of Io40 are to be re-enacted HARD CIDER. CooN SKINS, LoG CABINS, de5aucheru. huo. tn cups, btts of leatber, ram's horns. and all the other significant means for marshailing a vrtuous and sensible party to the support of It's candidates, are to be brought up again for the consideration of sovereign people.
 This manifesto from Mir. Webster. comes With the force of command, and we pre- sume the faithful are prepared to obey to the letter. The necessity of that which was done Ill lo40 to secure success, has become appa- rent to the whig leaders. Such measures then indicated a desperate condition, and such measures will now indicate the same.
 We are prepared for every thing but the frauds of that period. Even the whio party are dlsgusted with the fooeries of Gen. Har- rlson's election, and the utter want of enthu- siasm among the rank and file has caused no little vexatlon among their leaders since Mir. Ciay's nomination. Even under the peremp- tory command of the great Daniel, we have no fears that the silly and unmeaning clap traps of lS40 can be again made omnipotent, or will again serve the purposes of an entire campaign.
 We have seen the time when large whig meeting was fed out of hollow log, without the aid of knife or fork, and when as large meeting took their hard cider out of barrel without cup or dipper; but such days are gone by if we can rightly interpret the indi- cations ofpublic opinion.
 We have seen grave Judges, and even cler- gymen, " straining the loud huzza,n in honor of poor frightened Hue coon, and we have seen men in high standing, and who proles- sed great dignity of character, singing .sTip- pecanoe and Tyler too,D until the veriest loafer present hung his head in shame for the honor of poor human nature-but these days are among the things gone by.
 The pipe laying frauds, bribery, and all the other wicked acts which the whigs are commanded to do by Mir. Webster in the coming campaign, furnish most alarming cause for the utmost caution and vigilance on the part of the democracy. Weak and nearly balanced districts should be guarded against pipe laying and other frauds. A sim gle caution will suffice. Let the people re- member that Daniel Webster has told the whig party that "Hat rhich scaS done m 1840 has become necessary to 6e done agoim m 1S44,n and has commanded them to ss DO IT'D

TTOTf IFIt -FT5EUttIe JfTtUW. GREAT BRITAIN AND TEXAS,

We ask attention to the extract from a speech of Mir. Clay justifying Mir. Madison in taking possession of Mobile No one can read 1t without being struck with the simi- larity of our situation now and then. Mr.. Clay says the agents and emissaries of a foreign power were then intriguing to get possession of the territory. This is the case as to Texas-she has been begging to get into our Union for eight years. :" If,' says Mr. Clay, in 1840, you neglect the present suspicious moment-if you reject the prof fered boon, some other nation, profting by our errors, will seize the occasion to get a fatal footing on your southern frontier.0
 So soon as the Texian treaty was known to be. on foot, Great Britain sent an Admiral to cruise in the Gulf of Mexico, and trans ferred her Mexican minister to the United States. The great excitement which prevails in Great Britain, shows that she is determined to get a total footing on our southern frontier. if we reject the proflered boon, and Texas thinks proper 10 enter into alliance hostile to this country with Great Britain, which she may be driven into from necessity, what right would the United States have to declare war against Great Britan and Texas?
 Shall we spend fifty millions of money and sacrifice 100000 of the bravest sons of the south and west to get back from Great Britain that which we refused as gift This is the blindest and maddest folly. Great Britain could send her forces down the Tex ian rivers into the Mississippi, and reach the city of New Orleans before relief could be sent to 1t.
 Mir. Clay thought that we had right in 1910 to secure our southern frontier, inde- pendent of all title, upon "the eternal prin- ciples of self preservation"
 We ask attention to the indignant scorn with which Mr. Clay then treated the threat ened terrors of a British war, which IS now held over our heads by British partisans and emissaries in this country.
 Extract from the Speech of the Hon. HENRY
 CLAY, oa the Perdido line: Delivered in
 the House of Representatives, December
 9, 1910.
 After the purchase by the United States of LOUISIANA, dispute arose as 10 its east ern boundary. Spain claimed that the pro- vince of Florida extended to the Mississippi, while the United States claimed that Louisiana extended to the Perdido River. President MADISON solved the dispute hy taking mili- tary possession of Mobile aud Baton Rouge, and extended the jurisdiction of the United States 10 the perililo. For this act, he was assai'ed in Congress by the federal members; and was delendedby Mr. CLaY, man eloquent, argnmeniaiive, and patriotic speech of which the following noble passage Is paFi

PHlLADELrHrA, June s, 1844. DEAR SlR-ln accepting the nomination with which the democratic national conven- ton honored me, certainly conceived my sell, at the same moment, as acquiescing in the political principles enunciated in the resolu- tions passed by that body, and as engaging with solemnity to cherish and exemplify them, ''in any capacity aehich might be caH- cd upon to act,o should that nomination re- suit in my election to the office of Vice Presi- dent. Had discovered, among those stan dard resolutions, rule of conduct, legisla- tive or executive, with which, in a material feature, my mind refused to accord, could not, without being inexcusablX disingenuous. have consented 10 become the candidate oi the party as whose creed they were justly proclaimed. In recalling your attention, therefore, with this remark, to the full and formal declaration of doctrine published as of the proceedings of the convention, you will doubtless perceive that 1 have given direct and comprehensive answer to your inquiry. As, however, your stated object in requesting this letter suggests to me the expediency and propriety of being, on the two topics to which alone you have referred, even more explicit, allow me undisguisedly to aver, that the re- lation now subsisting between the national de- mocracy and their candidates is appreciated by me, it would be impossible that l should, by any official action, aid in the establishment of another Bank of the United States, or in the distribution of the proceeds of the public lands among the different States, without deserved ly mourning the imputaiion of breach ol good faith and the consequent and worse pen ally of sell-reproach.
