lawars that it meets with the most unre> lenting bsstility.a. at the hands of the pres ,nt administration and I deem it to be an indubitable fact, that there is an extraordinary affinity of feeling and sen- timent exiting between the administra> ton and the South. The cause of this extreme aversion isclearly obvious. It is at war with g settled policy. and is endangeting its future success in cur popular elections by protiti!ing. corrupt and designing men. msrshaling go easily this igno'sn. and minimizing multitude that have so long and powerfully aided in its support.
 No man holds the inhuman restitution of domestic slavery in deeper abho' renee than myself, and none would rejoice more. at the approach of that day, when all our fellow men iu bondage-emanci- pated d s nthralled. might is:d safety and freedom throughout the length and breadth of the land, and I expect this event will yet arrive. Bu. I do not ex, pect to behold political phenomena so wonderful as that must be. when the re- fuse population of Europs-paupers. felons. or even Catholics shall gather around the altar of liberty here, and honor.bly and effec,ually resist every and any machina.ion and innovation tha. may aitemp. to deseerate its hallowed precincts. Ca'hoIoci.m, which would snslave the world, and every where ex tinguish the light of freedom, will bs found willing advocate of tho Slave in'erts: in this county. Another req son which he as'igns. why Whig z should not par'ici pate in this new movement. is that this new party will ere long be re- quired to take ground upon all the gtcat questions of the day. and that it can take no better ground upon the Tariff and protection 10 home industry, than the Whig party has occupieI for years" and therefore. that the condition of the Whig party will not be improved. by their associations with the "know Nothing movement
 If it's conditions will not be improved in this respect have we any assurance that it will be made worse? Those gfea. Irnciples are and have long been imperative. All the noble exertions of the WIig party to advance those prin- ciples have proved fruiIess, asa false Democracy. with its blighting system aided by the foreign vote has crushed them whenever lhsir sscendency has seemed at all probable. for tie writer comedies tho fact thst '" tho Democratic patty has for years ba,slsd for this prin> ciplc (Free Tr.de) and is, step by step approaching it's re.IIzs,on.'
