but he approUsd the Territorial acts Of Utah
and New Mexico, and yet IT Is intimated that
be favon restoration Of the Missouri compro-
mise, because he disapprovss the unwise policy
which reopensd sectional agitation
1t is one tsing to condemn the "reopening OF
sectional agitation produced by the passage of
an unwise provision in an act Of Congress, and
q totally different thing TO attempt the repeal
Of that unnecessary proyision. Indeed, the
very principle upon which that unnecessary
provision of the Kansas act was condemned,
forbids the idea Of disturbing II moo that has
been enacted. The American party denounced
sectional agitation"--and they win be the
last to reopen the sectional agitation" which
they have denounced We affirm that no
prominent member Of the American party de-
sires the restoration Of the Missouri Compro-
mise line-nsy more, we affirm that no such
proposition could now obtain twenty affirma-
tive votes in both branches of Congress.
1t is not our purpose, now OF hereafter, to
discuss the policy or the constitutionality of
the Missouri Compromise act; it has gone,
and cannot and ought not to be revived. The
principle enunciated in the 7th section Of the
American platform, has been almost uniyer-
sally acknowledged as the true policy of this
government on the Territorial questions That
section was based upon the Territorial legis-
lation of 1850, and ii contains all that IL pal.
liable in the Kansas Nebraska act, eschewing
its "squatter sovereignty" and alien suffrage
features.
Upon the principles laid down in the 7th
section of the American Platform, it is our
judgment, that not only the American party,
but the conservative men of all parties will
finally stand Neither the principles of the
Missouri restriction, nor the principles of
"squatter sovereignty" can again prevail in
Congress.
What course the anti-Americans of Virgin
ia, under the lead of the Richmond Enquirer,
may finally adopt on these questions, we shall
not even attempt to predict. The Virginia
Democracy, aoith such leaders, may be hard to
locate.
In the winter of 1848-'9, the General As
sembly of Virginia, having a Democratic ma
jority Of more than two to one, adopted res
olution with unparalleled unanimity, declaring
that, If the principles Of the Missouri Com
promise should DO disregarded, they could
stand upon their sovereign rights and resort
to the "last ertremity 7! Eight years have
rolled around, and now their consistent leaders
sWear that the American party are all traitors,
because, forsooth, they deprecate that "sec-
tional agitation" which the direct repeal of
that previously superseded act has created
Consistency what jewell"

The Express Of last evening contains glowing
report Of the great Fillmore demonstration oI
Thursday night In the Opera House.

Of the New York Bar, Henry 'irinnel, Gov. Bra
dish, Ex-Msyors KIngsland and Harper, Stephen
Whitney, Dr. Francis, J. Philips Phsnix, shep-
herd Knspp, aud others of equal rsspeetabidty
The immense building was thronged In every
part, and the greatest enthusiasm prevailed.
Speeches were made by Mr.. Ketchum, Hon. d.
W. Davis, Of Maryland, Hon. II. Marshall, OF Ken
lucky, and Hon. Mr.. Harris. of Maryland.
The me citing adjourned at midnight, and vast
procession, headed by Dodworth's Band, marched
down Broadway to the Sc. Nicholas, where they
serensded Mr. Marshall, and the other Congress
sional speakers.
On the same evening Msssrs. Marshall and Har-
ris addressed several acres Of Americans In Brook
Ign.
The Express remarks of the New York meeting:
Taken all in ALL this demonstration was one of
which New York aud the whole country may well
bV proud. Numerically, IL was larger than all the
mass mestngs that have been held this campaign
put together; for, besides those within the walls
of the Academy, at least ten thousand people were
assembled in the street, where four meetings were
organized, and where speeches were made, and
cheers given, which fully rivaled, in sarnestness
and enthusiasm those which took place in the
theatre.

The Signs in Tennessee.

A private letter has been shown to us dated
Lebanon, Tennessee, July IL, 1855, from one Of
the most prominent and reliable citizens of that
State, concluding as follows:
present me kindly to - and - Tell
them to be of good chser--Tennessee will go for
Fillmore, if he gets no other State"
letter dated Knoxville, Tennessee, July 10,
says:
"The tide is now setting In the right direction.
Our friends, who have been somewhat dispirited,
are encouraged, and are beginning to look forward
confidently"
We have been permitted to copy the following
from private letter. dated Sparta, Tennessee,
July IT, The writer, We are assured, is a we'll
posted politician and enters cordially into the sup
port of Fillmore and Doneson:
You may rely On the mountain district doing
their duty. All are united and determined to go
into the fight. We are all very much encouraged
in this county"
Another letter from Lebanon, dated the 18th
instant, from gentleman of the highest respecta-
bility, who has mingled much among the people,
addressed to friend here, says:
"And just here, let me say to you, what you
have, perhaps, learned from other sources, Ten.
nessee is in blaze for Fillmore and Donelson ;
not about to be but Is in blaze for the candidates
of the party who cay Americans shall rule Amer
ica." The evidences are nnmistakabie. Every
body sees it-our friends, too, rejoice at it our
enemies, too grow cad at it. Without change
in the current, we will carry Tennessee by a ma
jorty larger than any that has been given in the
State for twelve years. If it continues to run on
as it does aud to increase in strength il has for
the last two or three weeks, We will give our
ticket majority of ten thousand"
