Correspondence of the Charleston Courier


WASHINGTON, July 6.
The 4th of July, just passed, was every
where celebrated with more than usual spirit.
In nearly all the cities, appropriations were
made, by the authorities, for the expense of
popular celebrations. As the people of this
country have few holidays, the 4th of July
viii never lack due observance. Here we
had very fire weather for the occasion-the
heat having been moderated by copious rains.
The number OF visitors from abroad did not
equal expectations. There was one company
of volunteer infantry from Baltimore. The
chief officers of she Army and. Navy, now
here, numbering about forty, escorted the
President and Cabinet to the Capitol in full
uniform. Several ex-members of the,Cahi-
net were also present. The procession 70
the Capitol, embraced "the brethren of the
Mystic Tye," whom the President had spe-
cially invited, according to usage, to assist
in the ceremonies of laying the corner stone
Of the new edifecs of the Capitol. After
the stone had been laid with Masonic honors,
a brief Masonic address was delivered by the
Grand Master, who used on the occasion the
same apron and the identical mallet that
was used by General Washington, when he
laid the first corner stone in 1893.
A public address was then delivered, at
the Presidents request, by the Secretary Of
State, from platform on the steps of the
Casters Portieo. Mr.. Webster acquitted him

The SOUTHERN RIGHTS UNION PLATFORM.

l. ReSolped, That we hold the American Union
secondary in importance only 10 the rights and
principles it was designed to perpetuate; that past
sociations present fuition and future prospects
viii bind us TO il so long it confines to be the
safeguard to those rights and principles.
2. Resolrcd, That if the thirteen original parties
to this contract. bordering the Atlantic in mar
row belt, whilst their scperate interests were in
embryo, their peculiar tendencies scarcely de-
veloped, their revolutionary trials and triuInphs
still green in memory, found Union impossible
without compromises the thirty-one of this day
will yield somewhat intlc conflict of opinionand
policy,to preserve that Union which has extended
the sway of republican government over vast
Wilderness to another ocean, proportionately
advanced their civilization and national great
ness.
3. That in this spirit we have maturely consid-
cred the action of Congress, embracing series
OF neasures-fOr the admission of California in
to the Union, the orgapizatiou of territorial gov
ernmcnts for Utah and New Mexico the estab-
llshmcnt OF boundary between the latter and the
State OF Texas the suppression Of the slave trade
in the District Of Columbia, and the extradition
OF fugitive slaves, and connected with them, the
rejection of the proposition to exclude slavery
from the Mexican territories, and to abolish it in
the District Of ColUmbia-and whilst we do not
wholly approve, will abide by it, as permanent
adjustment of this sectional controversy.
1. That in our judgment, we win and ought to
resist, even (as last RESORT to disruption OF ev-
cry tie which binds her to the Union, any action
OF Congress upon the subject of slavery in the
District of Columbia, or in places subject to the
jurisdiction of Congress. incompatible with the
safety, domestic tranquility, the right and honor
of the slaveholding States; or in any act sup
pressing the slave trade between the sIavehold-
ing States, or in any refusal to admit as State
any territory heretofore applying, because Of the
existence OF slavery therein or in any act pro-
hibting the introduction of slaves into the ter
ritores of Utah and New Mexico, or IN any act
repeating or materially modifying the laws now
in force for the recovery o. fugitive slaves.
8. Ihatit is our deliberate opinion, that upon
the faithful execution Of the fugitive slave law,
by the proper authorizes depends the preser-
walton of our much loved Union.

Public Speaking.


Col j. j. MCRAE, of Clark county, a full
bloodcd fre-eater, but warm hearted gen
tleman, addressed quite a respectable crowd
at the Court House on Monday last He
spoke nfast and furious" fer two hours The
factis, he let his words get ahead Of his ideas,
and he was often led astray by the 1rillo'-
the-agssp Of what he calls northern aggres-
sion he evidently speaks with view Of
drawing down applause. His manner and
his gesticmation plainly show It, and every
sentence says ''now boys, cheer me. He
forgets to remember, or remembers to forget
that stupid stareTs and loud huzzas' do not
speak the sentiments Of The people.
Ills speech WAS a. 1llere rehash OF his al
most interminable ''reply, which it took US
some four weeks to publish, and as 1t has
been laid before our readers ne need here
say nothing about it. There was one partOf
his speeeh-a litt1c g7art-which he repeated
over two or three times that we win notice
Herolledit glibly and lispingly on his tongue
as sweet morsel. He said that Gen. Foote
'.had the worst memory Of any man that he
ever knew" The Col Is the man in the
glass house and he should not throw stones.
Well fix this fact when We come to notice
''reply which we regret that Ne eannosdo
to-day. We happen to know that Gen.
Foote has the most Tetentiye memory Of any
man that we were acquainted with He may
err sometimes; all men do, but in general
ms memory is remarkably correct.
After the Col. had concluded, GEORGE r.
CLAYTON, ESD, took the stand and never did
we listen to a more argumentatiye or effect
tive speech. He cleared away the rubbish
he smoothed the path and made all things
straight. His adversary was driven from eT-
cry position he had taken, and the triumph of
reason and argument, of the union and the
constitution VAS complete. Mr.. Claytons
manner Of speaking is most pleasing and
Happy. He enunciatas his words slowly and
distinctly, and every sentence tells. ne
i hope he will mako It convenient to ad
dress the people of the county again before
the election. We wish every body to hear
him, Coluaabas Democrat.
