dress the meeting. lie commenced by reviewing the
sautary constitutional and ncontesiable acts OF Pre-
sident Tyler vindicating him from the foul and alan-
derous aspersions of the Wings, and charged home
upon the latter for their many ncongruiies and
aphorisms. He spoke Of the Texas question IN The
most eloquen, and feeling manner, and demonstra cd
to degree of certainty the ultimate advantages That
would accrue 10 the United States, BY their 'mhedl-
aley reanDexing that beautiful but unhappy terrific

for upwards of half hour and during the delivery
OF his remarks frequently greeted with thunders
Of applause.
The Honorable Joel b Sutherland was then call
ed for from all parts al the room, and after some
time appeared before hem. He was most eDthus-
astically received, and made powerful speech. we
have no idea Of giving Mr.. SIS Iemarks--we took
no notes, aud the following hasy and imperfect
sketch is but a draft upon our memory. We shall
fight the Wings, said MIR s., farly-we shall beat
them too, and that is all we ask. We wish TO be
heard every where throughout the length and breadth
OF the land from extreme Of the country TO The
other, for our 10 noble one, and we deserve
TO triumph. There never was question startd yet
for enlargng the privileges OF the people, but that
was done by Democrats Democrat always being
the head and front of every such measure We
have capital and convincing instance IN New Jel-
sey-she has for the first time, through the iasirL-
mentality of the incorruptble Democracy, taken the
power out Of the hands Of the Legislature who have
always heretofore elected the Governor, and placed
il within the jurisdiction Of the people, Tremendous
cheering for some time.) The Wings talk about
James X. Polk being an anti 1 arf man-ha'e
they ever proved it, Never! An extract from let
tiers recently written by MIR. Polk and Mr. Clay, have
been publ shed side by side, and 1t will puzzle the
sophistica and learned to decipher any ollie

the enemy but it won't do: 1t too imsy, too ca

long. They want to know who James n Polk Is

country better than by advocating the claims OF The
Democratic candidates until the eiection-to leave
nothing undone to forward the god cause and The

entered upon the Texas question, and spoke of hal

had consulted together and were plotting against The

for General Jackson, which we're given by the im-
assemblage, rising and shaking he very ioun
dalton of the building by their unanimous and hearty
response. The sight was glorious one, and Will
long be remembered by those participating. 1t may
be termed the first nail driven into the hlg coihn,
by the unanimous voice Of the Democracy OF Phlla-

closing OF the campaign.
