Gov. McDowELL's Observation-Disclosures the

Gov. McDowELLs Notwithstanding the
uniavorabe ttaie OF the weather las, evening, very
large and intelligent audience assembled in the Museum
to hear the address OF the eloquent Vrgnan announced
the speaker Of The evening. The lec,urewhich will
be long remembered the most impressive OF its charac-
delivered IN this cy-was listened to- through
its whole length OF two hour with an attention unbro-
ken by any sounds those OF spontaneous and pro-
onged applause that invariably at the conclusion oil
his glowing and polished periods. " was nearly half
past ten O'Clock when the address Finished and
late hour was impossible TO write out our notes Tor
the paper Of this morning and confined, therefore,
to general reference to the scope OF the speaker
remarks. The matter OF the lecture was separated into
three principal divisions OF which the first was clear
and beautiful exposition OF the nature, powers, and be-
nedcent results OF the American Uniun-showng that II
is neither a mere confedeacy of States a simple
nation OF individual citizens, but wise combination OF
both-for purposes OF government, an aggregation
Of al the States and all the people OF the States and for
other purposes OF government, severance OF them
all into several separately governed Staies-thns giving
The might and dignity OF multitude OF nations to the
acts OF the federal government yet preserving to each
home government for the regulation OF It's local and IN
terror concerns The language and illustrations oil the
speaker at this stage of his remarks too forcibe
and grand TO be conveyed in any sketch like this.
The second division Of the discourse was inquiry
into the nature aud effects Of the institution OF slavery,
the unwarranled and mschievous assaults upon which
threatened the destruction OF the constitutions showing
that the regulation OF il is reserved TO the local govern
ment OF the States in which il exists that consequently,
the other States in way responsible for lis exist
ence and that they should not therefore, wish inter
fcrc with through any desire to escape connexion with
il further that all such interference is productive OF
evil to The slave well threatening TO the Union.
The third and last division OF the lecture was devoted
to general review OF the countless blessings to the hui
racencuding the African family-hat had result
ed from the establishment OF the American republic, and
the folly and wickedness of endangcrng IL by assaults
upon section OF II because OF institution that is not
the choice of that section, and which would not be ame
GRATED by the destruction OF the Union.
We conscious OF doing but poor justice to the great
production of Gov, Mcdowell in the above sketch, but
want OF time prevents from doing better this morning
We will endeayor TO give more OF the lecture to

the most beneficial, conservative, and statesmanlike
character and cannot fail to be productive of great good
