This Col. Haynes is the same man who was
n member OF the Freesoil Convention lately
held in Pittsburgh, and who there made
speech urging all the Freesoilers to support
Gen. Pierce. -ssr az -,
Col. Haynes addressed the meeting assem-
bled under the above call. We have room
to-day only for few extracts from his
speech. We quote as follows:
ave differ with Gen. Scott and his purity
on important principles. In the first place,
he was born and educated i'm the South, in
the atmosphere of slevery. Neither has he
at any time expressed himself directly or in
directly opposed to the institution OF slavery;
peliuluS the passage Oh tne IuSlllsesldN law
hewas acting as Secretary OF War and gave
his influence in favor OF that most infamous
measure. 1t must also be fresh in the MEM
cries of the most of you, that he cooperated
with the exploded Union safety committee.
81 now turn to Gen. Pierce, your candi-
date and mine, and take a look at his prnci-
piles. He was born and reared in free
State, and educated in the doctrines OF free
dom; neither was he ever fondled nor nursed
by slave woman. Deeply imbued with the
principles of liberty, he has boldly and en-
phaticaliy said, that he "ABHoRRED AND
LoATHED SLAVERY" When the Southern
Rights party Intercepted both the Presiden-
tial candidates, Gen. Scott replied, but Gen.
Pierce treated them with silent contempt
Franklin Pierce has the honor of belonging
to State which can boast of having sent to
the United States Senate that indomitable
champion of human rights John p. Hale.
"In reply to person who asked the speaker
whether he was in favor of the Baltimore
pl-tform, he said: execrate that platform;
platforms do not amount to any thing, and
can tell you, sir, that if you live two years
from this time you will find the truth of what
say. Do you suppose, said he. that would
vote for any man likely to carry out the prin-
ciples of that platform! Franklin Pierce
will carry out those principles. Will those
Inow address carry out those principles +
Will the Northern Democracy execute the
fugitive slave law! (Cries of never never!
