The Nashville Wing Of the Cd instant brings
us pretty full report of the speeches at Spring
field and GAINESVILLE of the two gubernatorial
candidates, General CAMPBELL, Administra-
ton, and General TRousDALr, Opposition. Gen
eral CAMPBELL said that if he were at liberty
to express preference on the Presidential
question, he would say that he preferred Mr..
FILLMORE as the candidate above all others
he had been SO faithful to the Union, 90 true to
the rights of the South. On the Compromise
and the position Of South Carolina, General
CAMPBELL said:
elf the Fugitive law il sometimes resisted, this
is not the fault of the law. The true position il,
We must xHFoacE TIE LAW 1t every hazard. We
must not try TO make the Compromise unpopular
We must stAad or fall upon il; we must stand by
it. II few fanatics resist, we must cot 60 into
secession and try to dissolve this great Copfede-
racy. but we must stand by the Government, and
compel tho refractory to obey the law. This ID
the true strength Of the South.
"South Carolina il at this moment making every
preparation to secede from the Union she is now
applying stronger and harsher language towards
the Government Of the United States than our "a
thers employed towards England Have you fell
it an oppression? Do you not feel pride that the
| Tag Of the Union IL every where respected! Wha
would It be If the Union were broken up into small
cosfsderacies3 Look at your privileges! Wher.
is there people on earth that enjoys such? Dis
solve the Union, and our rights would be tramplec
upon by every petty foreign power. The move
/ ments of South Carolina arc sympathised with by
| large number of Democrats of the South. She il
dissatished State, and has long been 70, In 1882
she wished to go off upon the tariff question, Blu
General Jackson held her in terror, and anothe
compromise then saved the Union. Think of he

stability would the Government have This vii

The Cuban Expedition.
From the Sapcnnah Republican, Ma,

The CUBAN EXPEDITION ALL ovHR.-From recent
accounts from Florida we are induced to believe
that the alleged expedition to Cuba has been
abandoned. Persons who were understood to be
engaged in it have returned to their homes, and
the impression is general that no further effort
will be made at least for the present. to invade the
island II is said that the leaders in the movement
in the South have gone West. We know not how
true this is. but we feel certain that the prompt
measures taken by the government have had the
effect to prevent the sailing ofthe expedition.

are to put him through in the most approved
Democratic Abolition style.
1t is amusing enough, to be sure, to watch
the twisting and wrigging Of the national De

in Massachusetts,. SUMNER made Senator by

To aid the Union in its amiable effort to see
nothing but absolute nationality in the Demo
Gratis of the North, and to revive the halcyon
days tranquillized by the recollections of the
''old trials" we quote an article from the Ban
gor Jsfsrsonion, Free-soil Democratic paper
published in Maine, in defence of Mr.. RAN
FOULS course. We commend it to the consid-
GRAFTON Of our contemporary, for whose benefit
we have marked few lines for insertion in

From the Je6rsonian.
READING OUT OF rHl PARrY.-Is the "new test
to be retroactive? ESQ, fearful number Of Demo-
Gratis besides the Hon. Robt. Rantoul, r. have, per-
haps without knowing it, lost caste. On the 9Th Of
January, l849, Mr.. Richard X. Meade moved, in
theouse of Representatives of the United States to
suspend the rules to enable him to introduce reso-
luton instructing the Judiciary Committee to re-
port an additional fugitive slave law. The vote
stood on Mr.. Ms motion-yeas IS, nays 100. The
vote of Maine stood thus:
Yeas.-nons.
Belcher, Hammons, williams
But one Democrat from he free States (Mr. In
gersoll, Of Pa.) voted for Mr.. Meade's motion.
Messrs. Smart, of Maine, Thurston, Of Rhode
Island, Stuart, of Michigan, and Jenkins, of New
York. Democratic members of the sOth Congress,
voted may.
They were net in the last Congress, but are
members elect of tho 32d Congress.
Mr.. Meade can avow himself in favor of dissolu-
ton, and no northern Democratic journal de-
nounce him. he is good Democrat But if Mr.
Rantoul, hundred times his superior. disapproves
of the Fugitive Slave law, he Il no Democrat.
He il abused for receiving Free-soil votes. II
tho columns Of the Democratic papers Of this State
are examined, it will DO found that they (ncludng
the Bangor Democracy last fall solicited just sueA
votes il Is thought duogating TO Mr.. RantosI to
csiss.
Tho truth is, when men wish an election they
get all tho votes they can obtain. And this. Of
itself, should not injure any man if he uses dis
honorable means. But will those who arc de-
nouncing Mr.. Rantoul state what Democratic
principle he has repudiatcds Let them say. They
may find Mr.. Rantoul not 30 easily disposed Of;
and those who attack him are admonishsd that
"prudent husbandry of their resources" may be
very proper and very wise.

&. istration of the Government, in regard to what
are called the Adjustment or Compromise mea-
surcs of last session. That opinion is that those
measures should be regarded in principle az
"a final settlement of the dangerous and exciting
subjects which they embrace; that though they
were not free from imperfections, yet, in their
mutual dependence and connexion, they formed
"a system of compounds the most conciliatory
and best for the entire country that could be OBJ
tanned from conflicting sectional interest and
opinions. and that therefore they should be ad-
hered to, until time and experience should de-
monstrate the necessity of further lcgislation to
guard against evasion or abuse. That opinion, 20
far a. know, remains entirely unchanged, and
will be acted upon steadily and decisively. The
peace of the country requires this; TIE security of
the Constitution requires this; and every conside
ration of the public good demands this. If the
Administration cannot stand upon the principles
ofthe message, it does not expect TO stand at ALL"

From the ~. Joseph TdIley Rsgistsr.
Indiana-Congres sion nal.

In the first district, Judge Lockhart Is NOM
mated as the Democratic candidate, beating in
convention Albertson, the present member, G.
G. Graham, B. r. Edmonston, and Smith Mil
Ter, three ex-Senators and ex-Delegatss. Mr..
De Bruler, of Dubois, will probably be the
Wing candidate, but has about one thousand
six hundred adverse majority to encounter.
In the second, Durham, the present mem
Der, is renominated. The Wings have not as
yet settled as to who shall oppose him.
In tho third, Robinson, tho present member, will
be rcnominated, though strongly opposed by other
aspirants. There win be warm canvass in this
district after the Wing candidate IL nominated.
In the 4th, Julian, F. s., 10 in the field for re-
election. but is opposed by portion of the Democ-
racy who supported him in l649, and who will pro-
badly present Democratic candidate. s. w.
Parker, d. p. Holloway, of the Palladium, and
John 8. Newman, arc tho Wing candidates for
nomination.
In the 5th, nothing is settled, though il is sup
posed that DR.. Ritchey may be the Democratic,
and w. w. Common, Of Hamilton, the Wing can.
didnte.
In the 9th, German, the present member will
probably be re- nominated. George w. Carr, the
| president of the late convention, has announced
himself As candidate, subject to the will of the
people, and hope will be elected, If there is nc
| WING candidate, a. thcre probably will not be.
In the It'll, McGaughey, tho present member
Usher. of vigo. and Harvey. of Hendricks, are
candidates for the WING nomination. No Demo.
crat formally announced as yet.
In the Sth. Mcdonald. tho present member, and
Daniel Mace are candidates for the Democratic
nomination, with nearly equally balanced pros,
poets Of obtaining it. w. X. Rochester, Of La
iayette, is the Wing candidate.
In the 9th, DR.. Fitch will probably be the Demo
cratic nominee for reelection. The Wing candi
date is not as yet agreed upon.
In the 10Th, MIR. Harlan, tho present member
Judge Borden, and d. b. Herman. are the pro
minont candidates for the Democratic nomination
Several Wings have been spoken Of, but no en'
settled upon the Wing candidate, or formally
announced 40 an aspirapt.

in his writings, nor in those of any other philo-
sopher 1t is mere psychological fungus that
suddenly sprung up once upon time, and az
suddenly became petrifaction in mems minds.
We imagine there are very few persons in the
world who will not be amazed when they
find that Lord BACON never even heard Of
that great Baconian apothegm, knowledge is
power. Signor RIccABoccA astonished even
that erudite Englishman, Parson DALE, by
telling him the fact, and we doubt if there
be a ''lsarned pundit" among us who will not
also be astonished to learn it. AS for ourselves,
we would have been willing to bet any reason
able sum that we could command that we could
point out the aphorism in Bacon's works, not
that we ever saw it there, but, having seen it
80 many thousands Of times attributed to the
great philosopher, that we never doubted it was
his property. But, as DIR. RIoCABocCA said to
his abashed pupil, that shall be a warning to us
never to fall into the error of the would be scho
lar, and quote secondhand. BuLwER LYTToN,
in his new novel, puts the matter at rest in the
following not~
"This aphorism has been probably assigned to
Lord Bacon upon the mere authority Of the index
to his works. 1t il the aphorism of the index-ma-
kerr certainly not of the great master of inductive
philosophy. Bacon has, il is true. repeatedly
dwslt on tho power of knowledge, but with 80 many
explanations and distinctions that nothing could
be more unjust TO his general meaning than to
attempt TO cramp into sentence what it costs him
volume to define. Thus, If in ono page he ap-
pears to confound knowledge with power, in ano-
Their he sets them in the strongest antithesis to each
other, as follows: 'Adeo signanter Deus opera po-
tentie ct sapientim Discriminate But it would
he a. unfair to Bacon to convert into aphorism
the sentence that discriminates between knowledge
and power, it il to convert into an aphorism any
sentence that confounds them.''
We take pleasure in transferring to our col
umns the following paragraph from the Pacific
(San Francisco) Ne,oE
eve learn with pleasure that j. H. Clay Mudd,
esq.,, late of Washington city, who has done good
service in the Wing cause in years gone by, in

MONROE.
This want OF the habit of public speaking was
very conspicuous in several Of the older members
Of tho convention, and In none moro than in Mr..
very eloquent speaker; but in former days his
speeches were said TO be remarkable for plain
mon sense, expressed in clear and Ineligible
language. He had entirely lost this, doubt from
| long disuse, before he came to the convention.
His ideas appeared 70 be confused, his delivery
| awkward, his manner perplexed, and his whole
demeanor that of a man overwhelmed by the mag
nitudc Of his subject. To have judged from his
| speeches on the floor, might very we'll have
| supposed that he had clear perceptions upon
any subject and that he had not mastered the par
| ticular one upon which he was engaged for the
/ time being.
| Yet those who know the history of Mr.. Monroe,
are well aware that such was not the character OF
| his mind. He was cmincntly man Of action; he
saw his way clearly in every difficulty, political or
diplomatic, and though he might not be able to
