SOUND SPEECH
We would call particular attention To the
speech Of the Hon L. + i!allct of Boston,
made in nominating Gen. Butler rs the Democra-
no candidate for Governor of Massachusetts,. The
assertion that popular sovereignty. as under
stood IN Virginia, has 10 friends North, is put
10 rest by the bold stand taken by him who
reported the Cincinnati platform. Tine speech
is Worthy OF place in every Southern journal.
The place where made, the Convention to
whom addressed, the subject ma;;crt contains,
and the OCCASION Of c"ia;u,ttn: the nominees
Of the party TO lis sentiments, all rniie to s.
lence the c;.umny tina, has often been levciied
at Mr.. Havt By Southern opposition y
sounder speech. one more conservative OF
Southern rights one more jus; 10 every section,
or more true to the Constitution, We have not
seen.
