Mr. RelI.--Mr. Toonbs.

The honorable Senator from Georgia is
quite bitter 10 his denunciations of John
Bell. Perhaps the recDTd, 10 which he ap-
peals, may account for his conduct. In the
Appendix to the Congressional Globe. vol

IS, 1854. Mr.. Bell in reply to Mr.. Toombs
said:
''The honorable Senator from Georgia, In
the course of his remarks yesterday, thought
proper to declare that had become the ally
of the abolitionists of the North. l have
this to say to the Senator in reply--h the
honorable Senator meane to say that in vot-
ing against the Nebraska bill. in company
with the abolitionists, was their ally-and
to that extent only was their ally; il it was
his object, in making that statement, to let 1t
go forth to the country for effect among the
people, that be had boldly said to my face in
the Senate, that had become the ally of the
abolitionists, then have to say to him that
it was an ad eaptandams argument. as unjust
to him as il was to me, and worthy only of
the shallowest and lowest demagogue. If he
meant to say that had become the ally OF
the abolitionists of the North in sympathy.

MP. DICKINSON To MIR. JONES.
RINGHAMprnN Sent % Is

BINGHANPTOS, Sept. -, 1901.
DEAR SIR-f am favored with yours OF the
18th inst, accompanied by copy OF
resolutions which 1 introduced into the
Senate of the United States In December,
lS47, and extracts from a speech which l
made upon them in that body in January fol-
lowing, and inquiring whether l still adhere
to the same opinions therein expressed. My
answer is as follows: The resolutions related
to two subjects: the acquisition of territory
and its government. That relating TO the
government of territory was intended TO pro-
pose au anti-sectional policy, upon which all
national minds could unite in opposition to
the provisO which was then disturbing the
peace Of the country, and that part oil the
speech which discussed this resolution was
directed to the same end. |, therefore, say
that for all the purposes then presented, and
under discussion, 1 FULLY stand by the resolu-
tons and speech as whole, though upon SO
comprehensive a subject no particular ex-
tract does entire justice 10 my views. The
doctrine since established by the bred Scott
decision was left by me entirely in allegiance;
but stated in general terms, in several parts
of the speech, that the territorial legislation,
which l proposed, would be exercised, OF
course nnder and in allegiance To the Cons.i-
tuition of The United States. The line of ter
ritorial right under the Consultation had not
then been defined, and regarding it a judicial
question ! did not express any opinion upon
it.
Had the question of the present day been
presented / should doubtless have said more,
thought am not aware that should have
said less, or have spoken otherwise than did,
upon the question then under discussion.
Sincerely yours, ID. ). DICKINSON.

Mr.. Buchanan and the South.
IRON the Charleston Mercury OF the alth.l
If Lincoln is elected President Of the United
States, the relations of the Southern States
towards his Administration must be settled
by the present Administration. Mr.. Lincoln
will not be Installed in Office before the fourth
of March next. Long before this time, the
Southern States will have determined their
course; and if this course shall be a secession
from the Union by one or more Southern
States, Mr.. Buchanan will have to guide the
course of the General Government to meet it.
If he thinks that State has right to secede
from the Union. of course he cannot order
any portion Of the United States army or
navy against seeding Stale. Ii b: at
tempts coercion. every Southern man III his
Cabinet, and in the army and navy, Will
doubtless leave them. Congress has no pow
er TO control the Presidents views OF the
Constitution, and the duty 1t involves. He
must, az the Chief Executive of the United
States, act for himself; and enforce his own
conscientious conceptions of the rights OF the
States, under the Constitution OF the United
States. fthey (Republicans) shall
by their aggression and sectional domination,
drive one or more Southern States out OF the
Union, Mr.. Buchanan will not shed the blood
of wronged and inotfensive people, who
seek their safety by separation from their
aggressors and prosecutors. This Is our
opinion. whether Il is right or wrong, should
in no way affect the course OF the Southern
States. They should pursue that course
which, in their opinion, their rights, inter-
ests and honor demand; and as to the rest,
be prepared to meet the consequences, what
ever they may be. For the speedy formation
of Confederacy of al the Southern States.
the best instrument we believe. will be the
sword.

Great KeII and Everett Meeting in
PhIIadeIphfu.

Tuesday night last there was the grandest
demonstration of the season. The arrange
ments were on a very extensive scale. Two
stands were erected on BROAD street. inme-
diately in front Of the Square. ffom which
addresses were made to the assemblage. Pc
ter Mccall presided. Ey-Gov. 3forehead, of
Kentucky, Major C. \. Henry, of Tennessee,
Hon. J. Z. Ingersoll, Col. Martin, Of Tennes-
see, Hon Ed. King, and others, addressed the
meeting. Henry K. Fuller presented the reso-
Iutions, and David Paul Brown seconded them.
Delegations, both Unioh and Americans,
came in from all quarters. The fafge says:
THE procession was large and imposing.
4 number of clubs from neighboring cities
were present. About three hundred Bell and
Everett men came from Wilmington, and u
club of considerable numbers hailed from
Delaware county. Others from New Jersey
and Norristown. The transpareneies carried
contained a number of striking notices"

From the Washington States.
fhe DfsunEOn Programme.

WHAT DOES TT MEAN a despatch from
Washington announces that seventeen thous-
and stand of arms has been ordered 10 Fert
Moultrie. South Carolina. AS the garrison
(oaly three hundred) is already well supplied
the order may we'll create inquiry as to the
wherefore Perhaps Mr.. Clingman's coming
North has somewhat to do with this Southern
march of muskets and cartridges"
We copy the above from New York jour-
nal. Sometime ago we called attention to
the probability that the United States fortifi-
cation In the locality alluded to would be va
Gated on some fimsy prcteAt. We regarded
such an act as part and portion OF the dis
unionist programme to get possession OF
these forts, and there makc rendezvous of
those who were in the league with Yancey
and Breckenridge to precipitate the Southern
States into a revolution. We called the at
tention Of the government and the people to
1t, warning the former against being either a
willfni or Ignorant tool in the hands of the
disunionists, and exhibiting to the latter the
Infamous plans which were being concocted
and carried out to desecrate all they held most
dear. By permitting such action, the Presi
dent would be fdcile pTinceps in the dread
conspiracy against the peace and prosperity
of the Union. 1t Is to be hoped that, instead
of permitting his personal feelings and ami
mosities to lead him into the camp OF Yaneey
and the fire and sword propagandists of the
United League of Southerners," he would
jealousy watch every movement tending even
remotely to break mp the Union he ia sw orn
to protect. He is agent of the people; and
the people will demand that he return to
them uasullied and undisgrsced that which
they entrusted to his hands.
When We, on former occasion. drew pub
lie attention to the 'iarmy orders" touching
the fort at South Carolina. we were met In q
more satiric than serious manner. The Char
lesion Aereavy especially desired to laugh off
the suspicion. 1t was natural for Ii do 40,
and we can excuse its anxiety to divert in
9niry from the subject but it is not so excu-
sable in those who are entrusted with the
forces of the Republic to use them In a way
which shall be detrimental to the interests of
the Union and the prosperity OF that Repub
lie.
The additional seventeen thousand stand
of arms for Fort Noultrie, If fact, de-
mands explanation. In the event of no sat
isfactory reason being giyen-and VIC see
none that can--we must regard it but az
another development of the plan of the pre-
cipitators.
In view of these Indications, it behooves
the whole national element OF the country,
by virtue of the bsllot-box, to put the enc
mics of the Constitution into that imbecile
obscurity where they will be powerless
against the glory and perpetuiiy of the
Union.

all OF which generated into a perfect FLYER
heat when il was announced that Breckin-
rdge and Clay would speak at Owihgsville.
The speaking commenced by the Vice
PRESIDENT, who spoke for some half an hour.
without creating much enthusiasm. He said
ne had been TO the mountains and addressed
the people, At this Douglas man asked
him whether he had answered the Norfolk
questions, TO which he made no reply. He
then went on in vindicatiou of his position
on the slavery question, and of the platform
on which he stands. He closed amid the ap-
plause of his friends.
He was followed by J.. 3. Clay, who started
out By pitching into Bell and Everett for be-
ing uosound on the slavery auestion-EpTat
he called an ou,-and-om oboluisnia This was
more than the Bell men could stand, 90 they
asked him, "Did Breckenridge think so last
winters" and "What about those cid Wing
cohorts of the Nortb?'' To all this he could
make no response. From Bell and Everett
he pitched into DougIa. and johnson; then
the real fun commenced. Question upon ques-
t!0n was then put to him by the Douglas men,
which made him so mad that be scarcely knew
what he was saying, and created shout upon
shout for Douglas, interspersed with personal
denunciations, such a., What you, four
year old, coming to Bath to teach US democra-
cy:' together with other terms. Ills speech
reused all the pent-up feelings of the Douglas
and Bell men. He was followed in short
speech by johnson, of Ark, one of the seed
ers from Charleston.
Alter he was through the most vociterous
shouts were raised for Mayor Mason, and
cheers upon cheers for Douglas. The Major
responded in one of the most whitening and
scathing speeches he ever made. Conscious
that he was right. he spoke boldly, eloquent
ly, and defiantly. lie answered all the lead
ing points that had been made by the other
speakers, together with some points raised by
persons in the crowd with a view of embar
RAISING him. 1t was late when he finished
| his speech, but the crowd stuck to him to the
last. and made the wclhin9 ring with shouts
| for Douglas.
The Whag also says:
In his remarks on Tuesday night in Owings-
| vile, Major Breckenridge expended good
| explaining why he was at the West Liberty
barbecue He said he certainly should not
have been there but for the fact that two
personal friends had pledged him to the peo-
| pie that he would be there, and that when
| ever friend made pledge for him he made
| il rule always to redeem it If it were at all
| in his power to do so.
| Major Mason got the distinguished gentle
man very badly on this. He reminded him
and the people that "a friend" and one of
| his head Electors in Virginia, had pledged him
| TO Douglas and to the people of Virgins that
| be [BreckinIidgel should answer the Norfolk
| questions which Douglas had then answered;
| that it seems this is no memorable rule with
the Major, since be utterly failed so far to re-
dem the pledge of his Virginia friend, and
| when the whole country, too, is DANGEROUSLY
demanding that be should redeem that pledge.

the TACT that Mr.. BRADY, the Brecklnridge-
Yaneey candidate for Governor of New York,

w- A correspondent OF the New York
Herald, travelling in Georgia, transmits the
following: --
Returning from brief but searching visit
TO the interior plantations, your correspond
emit has arrived at these conclusions:
/. That the Northern people labor under
the grossest ignorance in regard to the rela-
lions of master and slave on the plantations.
2. That intense excitement exists in all the
isolated districts in regard TO the movements
of the abolitionists of the North.
3. That the agricultural population is ripe
for revolution and separation.
4. That if Lincoln be elected, men can be
found ready 70 go to Washington. and by
force prevent his Inauguration. And,
5. That there already exists an armed
league. pledged to this and otnef purposes
hostile TO Lincoin's government
Startling as some of these conclusions are,
vet there are frequent grounds for believing
them warranted by the facts.

He speaks in the highest terms Of both
