although the Democracy did carry their collins
in procession through the streets. But Cochrane
and Macay, Sckles Taylor, and the other re-
cIeants would have an emphatic PERMISSION 10
stay at home. The speaker proceeded to show
how the Administration had trampied squater
sovereignty under foot. After attempting to force
Kansas into the Union as a Slave state, they
had declared that because she was determined
tu be free she should not into the Union until her
population had reached $4,000, violating the Demo
cratic principle that Congress has no right to legls
late slavery into out OF any ot the States or Ter
rtores and thus cndeayoring to fix slavery upon |
Kapsas until such time that amount OF population
was reached hoping in the mean time for an opporu
nitv to force her in under Slave Constitution In
conclusion the speaker said he merely arose to return
his thanks for the honor of their nomination. ana I"
state that if elected he would be true TO the principles
of the democracy OF Thomas Jefferson. Great ap-
plause -.
Spirited speeches were also made by Mr.. Terwiiger
and Chss. NJ Briggs. Mr.. Briggs was most enthu.
siastically checred H said that If New-lork did
her duty they need not fear that NiIamsbnrgh woul1
lac behind. Across the river they were so disgised
v the present representative Macay, that Mr. HAM
ilton would receive most hearty ana unanimous sup
port. He believed that the Congressional tlcket
would leave the other side with majority that even
the indifference ot NeN.York could not overcome.
