81 will never vote, and no earthly power
shall ever make me vote, to carry slavery
into Territory where it does not now exist. ,
He had heard Judge Thurman make a
speech for the Proviso against slavery in
the Oregon bill in l84s. William Allen
spoke in favor of the same Proviso. Polk
signed the bin routaining it. Fhis was
good Wing doctrine then. 7s..az r.
"By the way" said Mr.. Corwin, turning
to Eovernor Chase who sat behind him on
the platform, George Pugh says sold out
The Whig party to Gov. Chase. have not
received the consideration yet. Please fork
overl" A. r.rs
Gov. Chase, laughing heartily, gave his
hand to Corwin. and the crowd cheered
Mr.. q. proceeded. He had opposed the
war with Mexico, on the ground that its
object was the acquisition of slave territory.
He knew the South could claim the right
to take slsves.to territory acquired from
Mexico. He was in favor OF inserting rirr
Wilmot PrOviso in the Treaty itself. The
first controversy happened in secret session
on this point. = -
He believed in the full: Powerof Congress
over the territories. Didn't believe in squst-
ter sovereignty. Nobody ever doubted the
power of Congress over the territories, till
somebody wanted to be President in 1S4s-
and SO this ambitious and considerate old
gentleman wrote the Nicholson letter. He
thought he had got up plan by which he
could ride North and South too. -s< .
For his own part, as "a matter of private
belief, and not part Of his confession of
faith as a Republican, he thought when a
State was ready to come in and had power
from Congress to make a constitution, they
might ordain that slavery might or might
not exist, and Congress was bound to grant
them this power. But this W as no part Of
the Republican platform, and he did not
think The question would ever arise. No
territory would ever apply for admission
with constitution authorizing or establish
ing slavery. --4> .
Spoke of the threats OF dissolution of the
Union. They were all bosh. He had seen
the Union dissolved three times in one ses-
sion of Congress. There were few mad
cap men At the South who would be will
ing if they had the power to dissolve the
Union. But were there no repose for such
traitors! Let it be understood that the man
who wants to dissolve the Union wants a
rope around his neck, and we viii have ne
more of this. He would be in favor of ap-
propriating public money sufficient to buy
rope for every such man--that he might
wear it around his neck whi lie he lived, and
take it With him when he died. z
A peaceful dissolution of the Union was
impossible. In the end one portion must
prevail, and the other will be helG as a
colony forever after. There would be nc
| difficulty d; IN sHyfug which party wc'iId pre-
vail in such fight. Freedom must always
conquer! CTremendous cheering)
Mr.. Corwin then closed with an eloquent

From the Daiiv STATE Journal. Sent. l..

From The Daily state Journal, Sept. I.
The meeting yesterday afternoon was .
grand affair. The day was me, the sur
shone brightly, and the people thronged in
crowds to the Park to hear the eloquent
orator, Hon. Thomas Corwin. on the po.
litical issues of the day.. Early in the day
telegraphic dispatch was received stating
that he was sick in bed. at Shat he would
be up in the o'clock traia. The people
were there by the acre snxiousiy expecting
his arrival. They came from the country,
they came from neighboring towns, they
came from their workshops-and quite a
number of ladies' were also on the ground.
The meeting was organized by appoint
ing Col. Noah H. Swayne as chairman,
who introduced Hon. Lucius Case, the Re-
publican candidate for Congress to the
meeting. Mr.. Case proceeded toshow up
the inconsistencies and tergiversations OF
his Democratic opponent until the arrival
of Gov. Corwin, when he gave way.
Upon the appearance of Governor Cor
win on the stand. long and loud cheer OF
welcome went up from the vast crowd in
attendance. He spoke at length. 1t will
be seen that he indorses fully The doctrines
and principles advocated by tie ,Republi-
cans, and holds it to be the light and duty
of Congress to prohibit the extension of
slavery into the Territories He spoke
nearly two hours, and hel1 the undivided
attention of the large audience until he
concluded.
After he concluded Governot Chase was
called for, who made few closing remarks,
after which the crowd separated.
In the evening large crowd assembled
in front of the Goodale House, where Gov.
Corwin was stopping. He was called out,
and went upon the balcony, where he again
addressed the people in speech of two
hours. After he concluded Mr.. Case was
called for. He appeared nd said he would
not detain them at that late hour, but
he indorsed every sentiment uttered by
Gov. Corwin. After music by the band,
the crowd separated with three cheers for
Gov. Corwin.

The Nevada Democrat., 1858-02-10

DOUGLAS ON THE SENATE FLooR.-A Washing
ton correspondent gives the following vivid
description of "the little giant when under full
headway"
HE is very shert in stature, but Of such
physical proportions, aside from this lack, as
Instantly to attract the attention of a stranger.
very large head, connected with broad and
powerfully built shoulders by q short, full neck,
o chest sufficiently roomy to centain the lungs
Of giant and pair Of short, dumpy legs,
complete the physical picture of the "little gi-
ant" if we except the broad, lofty Websterian
brow. and the deep-set, cavernous eyes that
sparkle and glow when excited like miners
lamps beneath it. 1t is the tremendous brain
power, lodged in that perpendicular precipce
of forehead, and shooting out its fires from its
shadowed eyes, that have given him the soubri-
qust which he will carry to his grave. When
excited and in full flow of debate, that massive
head rolls and shakes with the emphasis of his
thought, and the huge hand doubles until the
nails indent the palm, or else the broad, open
hand receives the blow of its mate, and italici-
scs the sentence with stunning report. The
sweat pours from him profusely and falls from
his forehead, or is thrown clear of his shoulders
by those inimical shakes of the bead, as the
rain-drops are shaken from the trees by q STERN
Add to this thick, bushy head of black hair,
and a restless uneasy feeling, which prevents
his being at rest for five consecutive minutes,
and keeps him moving from one point to anoth-
er in the Senate Chamber, and my picture Of
the "little giant" is complete"
