Rev. Mr.. Libby, Of Parsons6eld, made
scmc very pertinent. remarks on the irst sen
timent. His poin, was the manhood Of man
that the security Of personal rights was oil
much moro value than the rights Of proper
ty-and ,ha, was, in part, tho distinction be-
tween the laws oil America and Of the old
world.
He ayowed himself minister Of Jesus
Christ, and as such, no considered that per-
sonal freedom was so interviewer with tho
Gospel, that they could not be separated
without destroying tho force and value Of
both; therefore. he felt called upon not only
TO discharge his duty as n minister OF Jesus
Christ, but to fulfil his obligation as pri-
yate citizen.
Rev. Mr.. Pierce, Of New6eld, spoke on
the sentiment under the head Of the Clergy.
Mr.. p. was somewhat lengthy in his remarks
the substance Of which, was, that man
was worshiping creature. and that the
influence Of q religious teacher was great
that inasmuch as the influence Of good
minister would be productive Of good, his
bad examples and bad connsols would pro-
duce bad results.
He declared, that, while no did not intend
to interfere with the rights Of Others in the
elective franchise, he should not yield his
own rights as citizen-that, IL il 50 hap
pened that no was associated with any peo-
pie who should claim a surrender OF his
personal rights, he should come 10 the con-
clusion at once that his labors were not use
ful, and should deem i, his duty to close his
parochial connection with them.
He commented upon the political inau-
ence Of Archbishop Hughes. ofN. Y.,-tha,
standing as he does as tho representative oil
the Roman Pontia, and holding the Catholic
vote at his disposal, he can, and has welded
great, IL no, an oyerpoworing influence, in
determining the character Of our national
government.
Aspirants for Office, aware Of the great in.
auence OF the Archbishop, had reached the
object Of their ambition, by political tamper.
ing with-hcnce, it was important that A
mericans by name and principle should for.
get former distinctions, and unto to save
the country from the corrupting influence Of
foreign principles.
Rev. Mr.. Aver, Of Newfeld, offered .
volunteer sentiment, as follows:
The United States Of America A large
and prospercos nation-may they soon be-
come what they profess to be-a land OF lib
erty and equal rights.
Mr.. Ayers remarks were mostly applied
to the stain on our national character by the
existence Of slavery in the mids, Of the mod
oil republic.
Rev. Mr.. Waterhouse, Of Newfeld, offer
cd volunteer sentiment, as follows:
The Restoration of the Missouri Compro-
mi,e-The righteous demand Of Freemsn.
Mr.. watcrhouse stated that he felt proud
that his name was among the three thousand
clersymen thatl protested against. the re-
peal Of the Missouri Compromise - that,
while he had the pleasure Of contemplating
upon that act, he could not forget the NOR
LITIGATION he felt, that Northern men, especi.
oily the representative from this district
should so for disregard the wishes and feel
ings OF their constituents as to vote for o
measure so rcpulsivo to tho feelings Of free
men.
