able and convincing speeches to large audi.

heard in thispolitical canvass. Every position
he assumed, was impregnaby fortified by rea.
son, argument, and facts. He reviewed the
whole know nothing political position, in re.
gard to Foreigners and Catholics, and with a
masters hand, exposed their falacy, aud uncon-
st'tutionality. He showed they were section
alparty, both in the. General Government, and
in this state, and proved it beyond the cues
ton OF a doubt. Equally clear did he estab.
lish the fact, that the democratic, was the only
true, national, and conservative party in exis.
tcnce at this time. Take it all, and all, it was

IN the present political canvas, we have not
heard his speech surpassed by any one. His
audience were perfectly delighted, and the ap.
plause with which they responded, showed how
cfectually he found his way to their hearts

mean,) is going home to the north, and no

And are the masses of the people to be de.
