That did not entertain the same sentiments with YOUR
own Campbell, whom you ran for the Office of Gov
crnor Of this Commonwealth Other, VINO had your
support, expressed opinions OF the same sort George
F. SOmmers entertained and expressed IN the Legsa-
ture Of Virginia the sentiments and you voted
for him since II you Endorsed him then, how you
bring il as a charge against Mr. Buchanan that he en-
tertar ed these opinions 1t If desperate SHIFT, got.
ten up for the occasion. What are hs opinions now
How stand his votes You have heard the catalogue

most enthusiastic admrer TO point his hnger 10 one
of his in Congress touching slavery that was no,
against tee South every shape and form Checrsl
repeat what has been already 30 eioqucntly rkeu,
where is the evidence that lie has ever retraced one
lot Of these opinions The evidence Il a. strong as
Holy Writ that he never has retracted any opinion OF
vote of his. Docs he not stand upon the mutilated
| plstform of the Philadelphia Convention from which
the South threatened TO secede aud did Seede ~ pa
| ICheeisl. What is the platform OF principles mat ar

Won but | tell you that there IL not an opponent OF
buchanan not a STAKEHOLDER, not Nirgnlan mat can

ia. f. allure Of doubt or ambiguity about 1t lCheersl
II il full and comprehensive and MIR. Buchanan plants
Won ak more than that And if you want any assu-
yorce of his fidelity in carrying out those principles
look to his former ICneerr. His whole life,
| from his youth up, shows that wba he says IS truth
SPOKEN in the language of sobeiness caution and pu
dence Cheers Every action OF his lie Is guaranty
| that these pledges are given IN honesty and IN
good faith Loud cheers. But there ia another proof
beside hcse-a proof which gives you the fullest As
surance in reference TO the soundnes5 OF the Demo-
cratic party on the question which most interests YOU
We have heard the first guns in this concet. The
| bnte has commenced upon the TANKS OF the army;
| the pickets already driven down, and the Black
| Republicans marching against you and have al
ready carried two States in tie North with an unprecc-
| denied majority. While the Black Republican hosts
with banners flying, were mastering upon the mount
aims aud assembling upon the hil-tops of Maine, and
| the Democracy were standing there DONG battle tor
tile Constitution aud your rights, where ask, were
those friends of Fillmore who vGunt so much about
| their zeal to uphold the Constitution lCheers How
stands the battle at the North Ii Is battle between
the black hammered hosts Of fanatlcsn and DemOc-
racy Where if Fillmore IL he Is true to the South,
if he is that you can vote for then ought he not
influence his friends at the North to come TO the aid OF
the Democratic party who 20 nobly battling 10 de-
feud and sustain your rights In the contests which
| have lust taken place in Maine and Vermont, the
Democratic party alone stood by you, unaided 80 far
AZ has been ascertaned, ny suge VOC rom 'hG
Fillmore ranks Are you ready, then, TO rally round
the platform of that party, will YOU orsake II But
| our opponents say that Mr.. Buchanan IL not to he
trusted; that he has rquacr sovereignty prochViues.
Such 10 be the ground OF objection 10 hn 80 lar
az can ascertain from the newspapers ana orators
who oppose him. They say that the platform is good
enough but that bir Buchanan Is disposed 10 iav"r
| the doctrine oi squaiter sovereignty. Now, when
thew make that charge does il not follow that they
ought to show you how Ia escape such an eva,
| and seek to influence you by proper example
| | would ask, in the first place what Is squat
| ter sovereignty 1t means that those who 90 INTO
| a Territory may, upon It's organization, say whether
Slavery shall exist there or not The opposite OF TINS
doctrine is that the Territory shall first be admitted
into the Union before any acton is had IN reference to
tins matter 1t Ii not pretended that TIE Democratic
platform is founded upon any such doctrine Us sIuaer
sovereignty. Ii il entirely unexceptioudDie III thnt
reepeat, and candidate stands sqnalcly upon II

ask how he stands upon this subject The doctrine ct
souater sovereignty first engraiied III tue acts
