Foss, the reporter of this unfortunate speech
alluded to-, but also affidavits from various per-
sons of various sections, sustaining him most
ably and unequivocally in the language attri-
buted to Gen. PIERCE. We care not to what
particular tenet of religion or politics those
persons lay claim-their oaths are there. They
are the oaths of American citizens, swearing
to the truth for the sake of the truth, that the
humble may be protected against the mighty.
They are direct, palpable, conclusive, final,
defying contradiction--and one of the dearest
and noblest indications of unpretending in
tegrity against the assaults and Vaccinations
of a powerful party, which the political history
of this country has ever yet exhibited.
We await the decision of the people!

a Clincher.

The Charlottesville Aduoca!e remarks that
since General Pierce denies his New Boston
speech altogether, the following testimony of
his own organ-the New Hampshire Patriot-
becomes of the highest Importance:
He (Gen. P.0 is known always to have acted
heartily with his party in New Hampshire, and
we have proved incontestably that throughout
the prolonged agitation of late years, they have
uniformly been found on the side of the free
sellers, and against the South. Gen. P. did
but echo the sentiments Of his party in his own
State, when he launched HIS BITTER DE-
NUNCIAT1ONS AGAINST SLAVERY
AND THE FUGITIVE SLAVE Law.
This extract, says the Adeocate, probably has
reference to the speech at New Boston; but
that is a matter of small consequence. It's im-
portance consists in the admission that General
Pierce has launched 'his bitter denunciation
against slavery and the Fugitive Slave Law
the place where, or the occasion on which he
did so, is entirely immaterial.
How do Gen. Pierce's friends propose to get
this? Bring out your certificates, neigh
Dor, to prove that your candidates own organ
is not worthyfof belief.-NoJoM Beacon.

Young MEMS Scott and Graham Club
Quite a large and enthusiastic meeting Of the
Young Wings Of Iberville assembled at Oril.
lions New Hall on Tuesday evening last to
form themselves into a Scott and Graham
Club, to battle for the success Of the Wing
nominees in November.
Previous to the organization Of the Club,
the meeting was addressed effectively and ably
by Mr. Dawn N. Barrow. We trust that this
young gentleman IS not susceptible Of f~attery,
or can be injured by public eulogium-for we
Cannot let this occasion pass without congra-

Mr.. KERR, from Attakapas, in obedience to
a call, then came forward and addressed the au.

which created a fine sensation in the meeting

Young Mems Scott and Graham
Climb

At a meeting of the young Wings of Iberville
held in The. Orillion's New Hall, on Tuesday the
7th inst, Mr.. LOUIS DEsoBRY was called to the
Chair, and Mr.. H. MILE appointed Secretary,
Mr.. d. N. BARROW, in an appropriate and effec-
tive speech, stated that the purpose of the meeting
was the organization of a ScoTT and GRAHAM
Club for the Parish of lberville.
Mr.. E. w. BLAKE was then loudly called up
on, but he excused himself, and made fair promises
for the future.
Mr.. KERR, of Attakapas, was then hailed to the
stand with shouts of applause, and he delighted
the audience in a speech replete with eloquence,
Judgment, wit and humer.
Mr.. BARROW proposed the following Resolu-
tons, which, on motion of DR.. BERRY, were adopt
ed:
Whereas, we have become convinced, beyond
a shadow of doubt, that the Democratic nominee
of the N ational Convention is far from being asia
vorable to our institution of slavery as we had
heretofore supposed him; and whereas we are
thoroughly convinced that the Wing National no.
minee is unexceptionable in this and every other
respect-therefore, be it
ResoEyed. That we hold it our duty as Southern
ers, as Wings, and as Americans, to enter into the
support of that great patriot, Statesman and SOL
der, WINFIELD ScoTT.
Resotred, That We organize ourselves into a Club
to be called the Scott and Graham club of the
parish of Iberville.n
Resolved, That our officers shall consist of a Pre-
sident, Wee President, Corresponding Secretary,
Recording Secretary and Treasurer. |
The meeting then proceeded to the election of
permanent officers for the Club, and the result was
as follows:
LOUIS DESOBRY, President.
DAVID N. BARROW, Vice President.
f. w. BLAKE, Rec. Secretary.
R. l. MILE, Cor. Secretary.
O.. LABAUVE, Treasurer.
On motion, the proceedings of the meeting
were ordered to be published in the Southern Sem
incl. The Club then adjourned to Saturday eve
ling, after the members had enrolled their names
lnder the banner Of Scott and Graham.

Appeal to the EreesoiIers.

That Gen. PIERCE is a Freesoiler. and there
fore entertaining sentiments highly obnoxious
to the South, particularly in the present state
Of our political affairs, there are too many in
disputable proofs for doubt to rest in the mind
of any one. If we throw aside the evidence
of his own lips as expressed sat Washington"
and the anti-slaVery remarks he made at New
Boston, now fastened upon him by the strong
est evidence that could possibly be produced,
we find many other reasons in support of our
assertion. At the late meeting at Hillsborough,
N. H., in honor of Gen. PIERcE's nomination.
we perceive that the rankest Freesoilers in the
Union (Van Buren,, Dix, Stanton and others)
were present and made speeches ON the occa-
sion. Among these celebrities was the Hon.
WIN A. GoRHAM, of Indiana, who is said to
have made a great speech. if the Democratic
journals in that section are to be believed
The following is an extract from that speech,
published in the Portsmouth On. H.) Gazette,
a Pierce and King organ. Says Col. German,
in his appeal to the Freesoilers:
@:7Nere is noy no reason why any intelligent
man, who has heretofore acted with the Freesoil
party, should continue acithin its ranks, as its
tendency is plainly a reviviDg of those agita-
ting questions which at one time threatened
the existence of this glorious Union. What
can Freesoilers hope from the Wing perty?-I
What has that party euer done to commend it to
their support? Come back to the Democratic
fold and you shall be received Nth uelcome
hands and hospitabb hearts"
Thus, broadly, is it stated at a PIERCE
in his own town, that NOW no Freesoil- |
has any reason to be found out of the De-
ranks. Why? Because FRANKLIN
PIERCE is the Democratic nominee for the Pre-
and in him the Freesoilers have a firm
No other inference can be drawn from

cond paragraph of its leader last Saturday was

course of Presidential candidates-for we VEN
ture to assert that no other Presidential candi-

the extremity of writing a similar letter to
crush a similar charge if so. there never was
q more signal failure. 1t seems to us that a
man in the exalted position Of Democratic no.
minee for the Presidency, should have scorned
to notice frank falsehood, nailed upon him in
the face Of hundreds! And this very notice
which Gen. PIERCE descends to in the above
famous letter, is another strong point in favor.
of the allegation made against him. This will

human nature Well-its motives and its prompt

EThere is a talented young Irishman in
Cincinnati named Gibbons, who, though not
heretofore a Wing, has deemed it a duty to his
adopted country to enlist in the Scott ranks.
Being a good speaker he has been induced by
the earnest solicitations of friends to take an ac-
tive part in the present canvass, and in so doing
he has incurred~the displeasure of the Cineinna-
ii Enquirer, the organ Of Locofocoism in South
western Ohio, which let no opportunity pass of
abusing him-ealling him an aapostate,1 and
applying to him every opprobrious epithet in
its biflingsgate vocabulary. The abuse of the
Enquirerdoes not seem, however, to have much
effect upon Mr.. G., as will appear from the fol-
lowing note addressed by him to the editor of
that sheet:
To the Editor Of the Eaquirer-Sir:-I most
cheerfully accept the name of Apostate from the
%corrnptions of Locofoeoism. You could not
do me a greater favor than to say that | am an

Union be thirteen stars, white, in a blue field,
