"Mr HAALIs rose aud asked 10 be es
cused from serving as Chairman of III,
CorsJnittee on Commerce. He said for the
nine years he had held seat in the Senate
he had almost been a silent member. Upor
the subject iha, had so much agitsteJ the
country, he had rarely uttered a word.
He loved his country more than he loved
any party-more than anything that could
esitate and disturb lis harmony. Although
be believed the repeal Of the Missouri Com.
promise was . great moral and political
wrong, unsqualed in the annals Of the leg
islation of this country, and unequaled In
the history Of almost any country-still
with a desire 10 promote harmony, concord,
and brotherly feeling, he sat quietly amid
all the exciting deblle which led 10 that
fatal result, and opposed il not by HE voice,
but by . consistent, STEADY and uniform vote
not only in accordance with his own con-
v~ictiobs, but in accordance with The in
structioBs OF hih Legislature, passed by al
most an unanimous vote; but the thing was
done in violation OF the principles pl that
party with whom he had always acted, and
in violation OF the solemn pledges Of the
President Of the United States in HE insu-
gursl address.
Since, however, that wrong had been
Endorsed by the Cincinnati Convention in
It's contamination and it's results, he felt Il
his duty 10 declare that be could no longer
maintain party associations with any party
that ins sisted upon such doctrines, and could
support no man for President who ayowed
and recognized those doctrines, and what.
sver power God had endowed him with, il
should be used in the coming contest in op.

A sRari1estisu Nesting"

The Dubuque Express has an extended
account Of 4 Buchanan ratification meeting
held In that city last week. The description
is in something Of the high-fslnrin order and
might very readily pass Tor . burlesqne Of
the proceedings, though We presume il was
intended for real earnest. The speakers
we're the same old line Democratic" Office
holders Of Northern Iowa. who have SO long
preyed upon government. There was Tom
Wilson and his brother Dave. sour Tom"
Rogers and Steve. Hampstead, Gen. Lewis,
and Judge Clark, and last Of all, thar %errstic
wag George Nightingale, who in his eccen-
t~ricities and vagariek, has at last come out
in support of Buchanan.
There is one fact connected with the va
riouf political meetings being held through
out the country that is quite significant Of
the times, and that is, that while all of thos.
meetings held by the pro-slayery men are
being addressed by old-Ine Democrats and
ofice-holders, the most active participants
ia this Republican gatherings are generally
those persons who formerly stood highest 10
the Democratic party.

While The distinguished Sage Of Ashlan |

DIAMOND Cur DIAAo Np.--Some OF the

complaining OF alleged impositioRs prac.
tised upon them by hotel-keepers, cabmen,

pear to have suffered most. This is sur.

that visitors from a sharp city like New York

crowd Of fau%ltdnders:
Doubtless their Cincinnati entertainer
went upon the principle Of diamond cut dia,

loud mouthed advocates of the spoils sys.

prartised upon them. Landlords feeced

TIE WASHINGTON SENTINEL ON THE SUN.
sER OuTRAsE.-The Washington Sentinel
the special organ Of Mr.. Buchanan, and the
warm advocate OF that gentleman's claims
for the nomination OF the Cincinnati Con.
v%ention, publishes an article, approving in
glowing terms of the dssf srdly assault OF
Brooks on Mr.. Sumner. The Buchanan
organ proceeds TO say:
"If Massachusett. will not recall Mr..
Sumner-if the Senate will not reject him
or control him-if the m~an-sen0tor will not
hold himself responsible for such insults 10
his fellow-senators, what is to be donep-

The loud blaster cf the Buchanan men,
and their boast that they can carry Penn
s~ylvania with tws nty and even CITY thous-
and majority, has deceived many well
meaning Democrats into the belief that
their candidate 10 invincibls in this State;
while come OF the opponents OF the Admin.
i~stration have ~perrnitted themselves to BE-
lisve that there may be, really. zone foun.
dation for the boasts 20 freely isdulgsd il.
We do not believe there 10 any reason
for such a conclusion. We admit that Blu
ehanan 10 mueh less Objectionable man to
the people Of P~ennsylvania than Douglaso or
Pierce would have been: but beyond the
fac, that the nomination OF either Of the
latter would have driven many Democrats
from the ranks and that Buchanan will re-
tain them, he possesses no strength that
may be called formidable. His nomination
simply keeps those in the party who would
have been driven from IL, but 1t brings no
outside aid. We have not seen nor heard
of one oid.line Wing, Republican or Amer
lean who will vote for him; and we Know
that there are hundreds OF Democrats in this
county who voted for Pierce who will not
vote for Buchanan.
In 1851 Pierce carried P~ennsylvsnis BY
an immeo se majority, snd he obtained
sweeping majorities in Greene, Fayette,
Wss,moSeland, Armstrong, Clarion, Ven
ango. Butler. Mercer, Crawford, Warren,
M'Kean. Potter, Bradford, s~usquehanna
ans Tiogs counties, II was BY means of
these counties that he carried the State
In 1856 nearly al these counties will give
heavy majeriues against Buchanan, and
the few that will not do so, will be able to
give but noninsl majorities for him, The
change in these counties will mucl, more
than compensate for the few whig votes
Buchanan will pick up in Lancaster and
Philadelphia; and il il does not render his
defeat certain, ii al least leaves Pennsyl.
vania doubtful, and makes it the battle
ground of the campaign. The opposition
will enter the contest with an equal chance
OF success; and if prudence and wisdom
rule their counsels, their triumph is sure
Mr.. Buchanan hss in him no elements Of
popularity ;and if his friends,now jubilant at
their escape irom defeat At Cincinnati,
think they are going to have an easy victo-
ry, they are reckoning without their host.
