sion of sentiment in regard to the all important ques-
ton, involving the subject Of slavery and the admission

turbed our National Councils
Thomas Swami, ESQ.,, President of the Baltimore and
Ohio Railroad, was called to the Chair. He briefly but
clearly and forciby explained the object OF the meeting
Judge J. c. Legrand next came forward and de-
lvered most eloquent appeal He strongly deprecated
the evil which now rested upon u.s. growing out of the
subject in question His arguments were powerful, and
many points in his address eloquent and purely pa
trotc He spoke of the untrng efforts of our venera-
BILE statesmen to reconcile difficulties and preserve the
constitution His speech throughout conservative,
conciliatory, and in all respects highly commendabe.
1t was heard with profound attention. Several other
speakers followed and were equally happy and eloquent
in their remarks.
series of resolutions were read, which strongly IA
vored and urged upon Congress the necessity of peedi-
ly adjusting the difficulty recommending in strong
terms, the adoption of the bill before Congress,
submitted by the Committee of Thirteen
There were probably not less than from eight
thousand persons present. composed OF all parties and
ranks. Profound attention was observed by the entire
multitude. A voice has gone up from this meeting

needed by our national legislators.

day, by the conviction Of both the accused of man

ment towards the deceased. He forced, under
threats to eat sop and refuse filth until he actually died
from the deleterous and poisonous effects Of the abo
mnable filth. s+za
