the three, for ZACHARY TAYLOR.
The scene which here followed was beyond de
scription For about fifteen minutes the shouts of
appreciation and dissent were kept up in an inces
SAINT roar; cheers for CLAY were given again and
again and one man proposed three groans for Mr.
Boris His proposition was not heard in the con-
fusion. Some one seized Clay banner to carry it
awev This was resisted. All the time, Mr..
Boris stood with folded arms, looking on the
troubled scene before him. Partial order having
been restored
Mr.. Boris asked Have | not swallowed that
pill with WHY faces enough Cries of spit it up.
Don't make us sw allow it, &C. have done it in
obedience, not to the Philadelphia Convention, but
TO my sense OF patriotism to keep out worse men,
and prevent worse calamities Loud cheers and
marks of disapprobaton, amid which Mr.. Bolts
took his seat The uproar continued for some
minutes.
Horace GREELEY, being loudly called for, at
length came forward and said
do not propose Fellow Citizens, to speak to you to-
night on the subject of the Presidency the hour late
and you hardly in frame Of mind to listen TO the
frank expression of views which may differ from your
own. But there some remarks which just now
fell from our distinguished friend which, with your
leave, will make a very few comments | alude to
the question of Free Soil.

tence on the part of of you while listening the
remarks of our eloquent friend that subject There

in his views On the CONTRARY, Il the more incum-
bent you TO hear him at,entyey and thus learn how
this matter ia regarded at the South and what IL really
the issue. IL Is time that the North and the South
should understand each other. Let us az least know
wherein we differ. will refer only 10 two points in
our friends speech which must consider mistaken.
He regards this question of Free Soil essentially a
struggle for Political Power. cannot regard IT, To
me- It's Moral aspects TAR transcend in importance its
Political He says il makes difference to the Slave
whether he his shackles in Virginia or in Cali
ornia But though IL make difference To- the Slave
10 makes great difference Slavery In Virginia

not responsible, for over ii she has control But
slavery in California or in any Territory Of the United
States your business and mine II the business OF the
North Ii goes there by our permission. II must be
sustained there by laws enacted in and behalf
| Il must be upheld by power. 1t must exist upon
responsibility. Regarding Slavery as do, cannot
consent % this IL IS a matter Of conscience with me-
and trust with the North While leave Slavery
alone in the States which choose tolerate IT, have
right to be exempt from its intrusion the territory
common TO US all. Should the South resolve To sepa.
rate from us she might fairly claim portion Of the
common territory but while we remain one People
she has no moral right to demand of the establish

One other point Our friend agreed that the dfus. on
Of the slaves wide surface would tend TO weaken
Slavery. | cannot concur in this view On the con
