As we have minated. we were l

u
from an orator 50 deseryedIy popular.
It is true, we expected to hear Mr..
Davidson eplosize and defend Gen.
Scott, and whig usage and measures
generally, but an effort to initiate
Mr.. Segard, the "higher law divine
Ito whom Mr.. Gml,y ascribes the
nomination Of Gen Scott-into the
favor of Tennessee audience, fell
Ikea wet blanket on US. 1t was
more than we bargained for Under
all the circumstances, We had conclu-
ded that it would be as much as Mr..
D. could do to defend Gen. SCOT, but
imagine our surprise to hear him in
the defence Of Mr.. Sewmd-not
only in his defence, as we understood
lit, but a shield to, and the highest
authority for, the groundwork Of
abelitionism. The remarks that
forced US to understand him thus,
we're in substance these: After as
sorting that Mr.. Segard had been
q democrat up to the time of his es-
pousal of abolitionism and creation
of a sehism among the N. Y.-democ-
.raoy, there never had been any OPP
position made to him by that party.
we thought, as every truly national
democrat will think, it was then
high time it should be done. He
asserted, unequivocally, that Mr.. Sc
@ard obtained his abolition notions
from the teachings of 7Hos- Je17ersOn,
one of the purest men and greatest
statesmen that ever lived; and in sup
port of this assertion, he quoted from
the Declaration Of Independence:
"All men are created free and equal'
and then in that inimitable style
SO peculiar to the speaker he asked
the question, care negroes men?'
He seemed to think Semard had US,
answer it as We would. The forego-
ing is the substance Of his remarks,
as we understood them, which forced
us to regard him the champion Of
MIR. ,Seap@d for the occasion. We
were not alone in this conclusion
many others have so expressed them
selves. We do not mention it for
the purpose of denying the right to
! MT. Davidson of defending who he
ipleases-this we accord to him most
cheerfully-but as an effort unlocked
for in Tennessee. YWe have no dis
position to misrepresent, or detraet
from him. We place our statements
on record from a sense Of duty we
owe the reading portion Of the South,
by our position-that of chroniclerS
Of events.
If any Of our statements as to
Mr. DIS positions are incorrect, We
offer him the privilege Of our columns
