The part taken by General Cass in the sub

and his vote in opposition to the treaty are too
| well known to require further notice. Having
been trained in the school which taught him,
in our intercourse with foreign nations, to ask
for nothing but what is right. and submit to
nothing that it wrong. he had the moral cour-
age to stand up for the right, whatever might
be the consequences.
During this session Of Congress, hostilities
commenced between the Uuited States and
the republic of Mexico. General Cass advo-
Gated the most energetic measures for a vigo-
rous prosecution of the war, and for carrying
it into the heart of the enemy's country.

THE MEETING ON MONDAY.

The Democratic meeting he'd at the
court house, on Monday last, in accor'
dance with the call made in behalf OF
the Executive Committee, was attend
ed by a large number of our fe low cl'l'
zens, anxious to hear the addresses to
be delivered, the object Of which was
to bring before them the claims of the
nominees of the Baltimore Convention,
and to adopt measures for a spirited
opening of the presidential campaign.
spirit-stirring music by the Wood
stock Band, which was in attendance,
On motion, Jos. Fl. SAMUELs, Esq.
was called to the chair, and GEO. A.
Hupp and J. GArEwooD appointed Sc
cretarles.
Capt. S. C. WILLIAMS, delegate to
the late Baltimore Convention, was
called upon to "give an account of his
stewardship" After briefly reviewing
the action of the Convention-its diff
culties growing out Of the two-thlrds
rule, the New York question, &c.-he
reviewed Gen. CAss's history, during
the long period Of his public services,
and refuted The base calumnies of an
article which appeared in several ofthe
whig papers recently, charging Gen.
C. with having been black cockade
Federalist, an opposer of Mr.. JEFFER-
SONS administration, and an adviser
of HulPs surrender of Detroit. These
charges, we say, were most successful
ly refuted, and the Epoisoned chalise"
returned to the lips Of those who fabri-
Gated them.
The E!ector for this District, G. B.
SAMUELs, Esq. was then called upon
to address the meeting. He contrast
ed the frank and manly avowal of the
principles Of the Democratic party: by
their conventions, their orators and their
presses, with the studied concealment
of the principles of the Wing party,
for the purpose Of deceiving the people;
reviewing the "Tippecanoe and Tyler
too' campaign of 40, when they had
no principles "for the public eye" the
contest Of "A, when the Wings threw
up their caps for "that same old coon,"
and swallowed HENRY CLAY, bank,
tariff, and all the CROUCH and Ready"
huzza of'48, in which no principle is
brought to light, save that of a seram-
bic for the "Ioaves and fishes.'' He
said that while no one knows what are
the opinions of Gen. TAYLOR, those
of Mr.. FILLMORE are known to De ul-
ira Wing; that while the head of the
great Wing beast was disguised,
its tail stuck out, exhibiting all the
rings and streaks so characteristic of
its paternity.
PHILIP WILLIAMS, Esq, was then
called upon by his Wing friends to adj
dress the meeting. He was sorry to
hear the harsh language Of those who
preceded him (; he had hoped the dis
cussion would have been conducted
with more moderation, &c.; said that
Gen. CAss was 100 radicdt in his
notions, to be trusted with the helm of
the government, in these times of rev.
oIution in the world: that Gen. TAY-
LoR was the man for The crisis COM
pared him to WASHINGTON, and that
he was as well qualified for the presi-
dency as JACKSON was; that, as re-
CARDS the general prosperity Of the
country, it would not be materially af-
fected BY the success Of either rarty;
