Mr. C. proceeded 70 argue that the Bell and Everett
platform was sufficient and showed that grea' deal
more was said about the Territorial Slavery question
than il deserved He illustrated the state OF the case
by the following story: y
Two Italians were walking out together on erlgu
midsumuer night. One looked up to the heavens,
bick with innumerable ars, ana exclaimed, IN,
hal had farm as spacious as the heavens; that
wouh be an estate worth hayingp His companion
exclaimed 90 that l had herd as numerous as the
of heaven, what would you do with such an enormous

But Mr.. Breckenridge has made hmseli tne mead OF
