 0F With what consistency can whigs argue the gradual extinction of slavery in Delaware, Maryland and Kentucky, in consequence of not having new territory for their owners to carry them, and with the very same breath. abuse and villify Polk for bringing on the Mexican war, the result of which has been to acquire a larger extent of territory the products of which require slave labour. It will be recollected that this very party and these very fellows are the very men who oppos- ed the acquisition of Texas, to the Union, which they knew would be, and is now a slave State. Still the Annexation of Tex as was wrong, the war was wrong and it was wrong to acquire new territory, but yet these roses of mo- partyismn are abusing and opposing Gen. Cass for being in ia. yer of these measures that have made this opening for the emigration of slavery This was the ground occupied by Mr. Parsons on last Tuesday evening. For the gentlemans own satisfaction, we would advise him to look for one moment at the inconsistency of the thing.

Old Madison in thc Field.

We learn, from the Huntsville Demo- crat, that spontaneous rally of the demo- cracy of Old Madison took place at Blue Springs, on Thursday the 9th of Ju- ly. Extensive Provisions were made in the way of public dinner. Over a thou. sand voters were present. full of euthusi- asm for the Democracy and their cherish ed principles. The Democrat says the meeting was addressed by Col. Nathaniel Terry, Judge Betts, [. c. Clay, Jr., and Cols. Wm. Acklen, and M. A. King, delc- gates to the Baltimore Convention. '"
 "Col. Acklcn entertained the audience with narrative of the proceedings of the Convention, the manner of MT. Cass' mo- imitation, and the course of the Alabama Delegation; in which he vindcateG the conduct of those of the Delegation who sustained the nominees, and exposed in glaring colors the defection of Mir. Yan- cey and MT. Wray, who refused to SUD- port the nominees. He assured the as- sembly that throughout his travels in the North and East, he met the strongest evi I dences of the success of the Democratic nominees. t.e " siol49
 "Mr. King followed in an animated anf brief address, traversing somewhat of the same ground in which he assaled Mir
 Y.'s position with great severity, anc charged him with declaring in Washing ton, before reaching Baltimore, his oppo q sition to Woodbury, whom he afterwards supported, and of refusing to vote fol Wm. K. King throughout the balottins for Vice President. He said MT.

 1 Friend Hady: Things down here are quiet, except in the political world, and with them, the politicians and voters, the times are getting hot. Great enthusiasm is now being exhibited for Taylor's elec- tion-'hurrah for Taylor!' is heard occa- onally-while the Democrats are moving in a solid, silent phalanx, to the attack.- From that rank some have deserted, but they are by no means the leading char acters, nor could they be said to be men ot much influence. And while they have been leaving the Democratic ranks, men of the first character have come over to the democratic from the whig line.
 Bill Yancey is spludging about in this county, making speeches and cursing MT. Cass; but the good people of Butler know Yancey too we'll for him to. effect much. He has but few followers, and they are the ones alluded 10 before--men who have no minds of their own.
 The opinion of a goodly mass here is, that Mir. Y. has solf-aggrandlzement in view more than the interest of the people. As proof of the matter they point to the White Basis question, which he got up to ride into office on. A question entirely foreign to the interests of the people at that time. Some say he is trying to ele- vate himself; others, that he is trying his influence on the people, while not few call him ''weather cock" Indeed, in our opinion, he has fallen one of the lof. tiest falls in the opinion of the people here, that ever man could fall, in these 'dig- gins." 1 do not believe that MT. Y. could get from the people the office of drum-ma- jor.
 l presume you will hear many reports about back-siding in the democratic rank, but don't believe word until you know it to be so. .z
 2 l shall write to you from every point, and shall inform you all about MT. Yancey and the whigs. But when write of Y. do not think me his enemy. 1 am not. I have always loved the man, but despise with others, the course he is now taking.

'o The following colloquy occurred in the House of Representatives the other day. It should be borne in mind that Col. Has, kell was with Taylor in Mexico, was a delegate to the Whig Convention, and yet, with such opportunities answers plain questions with, "I don't know"
 Mir. c. then returned to his appeal to representatives from the southern States. Gen. Taylor, if elected, would not exer- else this power, which had been too much exercised of late. He was the friend of peace, and desired to preserve harmony and good feeling. On no domestic ques. ton would he exercise the veto power.- Eloct him, then, and let whig Congress be returned here from the free States to support him and where was the safety of the south General Taylor do noth- ing for minorities. He will exercise the veto power but in two cases. His posi- ton was taken on this subject. Now there were fourteen slave States, and six teen free States. Let but the masses of the free States be infected by the fell spirit of abolitionism their machinery might very easily call up a servile instruction that would destroy our fields and. drench our homes in blood and Gen. Taylor in the White House would fold his arms, be- come witness and party to all this, be- cause he could not exercise the veto pow CT upon domestic question MT. C.. would ask gentlemen from the south how they could go home and recommend such a candidate to the suflrages of their con- stituents @ Lrog srlf4
 After proceeding for some time upon the dangerous awkwardness and uncer- tainty o.c Gen. Taylor's position, and upon his utter disregard of the whig party usa- ges, Mir. C. put the question whether Gen. Taylor was a Wilmot Proviso man, or not 2 and call'd on the South to an- swer., If, Congress should pass an act embracing the proviso principle would he veto it, or would he not What would be the course of this man whom they have taken for their standard -bearer in stead of the man who for so many years has been the very pillar of their party 8 MT. HASKELL. will answer the gen tleman if he will allow me first to pro- pound an interrogatory with him.
