republican party-spoke of the principles and OBJ
Jects OF the Democratic party and compared them
gether, and called upon the Democratic party of

In favor of the Constitution and equality of the
States.
After the conclusion of the gentleman's address
there were loud cries for Yancey, which were con-
tinued for some time, when Mr.. Aiken again came
forward and said he had just received a telegram
from kentucky which stated that Mr.. Yancey was
IN that State, stumping, and doing such work that
multltudes were Hooking to the Breckenridge ban
ner The reading of this despatch brought forth
loud cheers
During the noise the President arose and proposed
three cheers for Kentucky, which were given with
Will Cries again of "Pryor-Prvorp
Mr. Norris then said: My friends, you have Just
been told by my friend, Mr.. Aiken that Mr. Yam
cey was in Kentucky, where he should be. We do
not want him here, where we are certain, but in
the West he is wanted to proclaim the true princi.
plies. L must also inform YOU that Mr.. Pryor has
not arrived in the city. He is chivalrous man,
and when he got to Washington to day. he heard
that Tom Corwin had challenged him to meet him
at wheeling, and Immediately upon receiving the
information, he took the cars, and is now on his
way to face the gentleman. Loud cheers1
The President then introduced to the meeting
Charles w. Carrigan, Esq, of Philadelphia
Mr.. Carrigan began his remarks bv saving that
iour years ago II Democrat from PENNSYLVANIA
hao peen asked what were the signs III the political
horizon, he would have answered all WELL or if he
had been questioned as to the labors and work of
the party, he would have replied that the Democ.
racy OF Pennsylvania had just stricken a blow,
whlch had thrown terror into the hearts of all dis
loyal men and cemented together in stronger bonds
the States of the c0ntederacy. He, standing now
Where he stood four years ago, brought no glad
tldngs OF great joy. He regretted to saw that for
tue nrst time In the history of Pennsy vania she
awakened no hope in the breasts of national men,
Her Constitutional Democracy are now buried in
the sackcloth and ashes of a humating defeat
lie was not there to tell the reason of this defeat
put he was there to say where the 225, 900 of her
defeated sons would be found when the worst comes
to pass-they were prepared to preserve the
rights of all the peope-to preserve the Union and
maintain the laws and the Constitution as our
lathers gave them to US, whether in the execution
OF John Brown or his upholders. PENNSYLVANIA is
now waiting the irrepressible conflict fCheers
She is waiting to drive back from her borders the
relentless hordes of Black Republicans, who are
now seeking TO upturn all laws and all harmony of
the Union. Pennsyl lvania wishes to be placed in the
van in this irrepressibe conflict She wishes to
stand by the side of patriots as in the days of the
Revolution, the conflict of American liberty and
American patriotism.
What is Maryland prepared to do Stand alone,
as in 1856? Voices, "No, no! we're ready"
Inc speaker was then going on to speak of the po-
sltlon OF Maryland and the Southern States, when
great commotiOn commenced in the crowd, with
loud cries of "here they comep' "here they come !"

sion OF National Volunteers, each man bearing a
torch, and accompanied by bands of music. passed
along the east side Of the Square, receiving the
shouts OF the dense mass of people there collected
After the left of the line had passed, the Hon.
Joshua Nansant proposed three cheers for them
which were given with a will
After the procession passed. Mr.. Carrigan re-
sumed his remarks. He said he noticed that the
volunteers followed the maxim of the wise virgins
who carried their lamps well trimmed and burn
ing, and he did not think they would be shut out of
the political heaven. He then went to show that
the South ought to prevent united part against
the sectional encr0achments of the Black Republi.
can party, by that they would break its ranks
and dsperse it forever. He then reviewed the doc.
trlnes OF that party and the policy and teachings of
It's eaders-they all looked to disunion and perhaps
civil war. Mr.. Carrigan delivered very beautiful
and patriotic Speech but the lateness Of the hour
prevents us giving any further synopsis of his re-
marks. He was vocGerouly cheered during its de.
livery, and received high encomiums from his
hearers
MIR. Norris then introduced William J, Rose, Of
New lork, who said that he had but little to saw.
lie believed that the party who tonight demanded
the support of the country, and who would on cleo
t0n day ask for the sutrages of the people was the
party embodying the principles of the Constitution
and which could alone preserve that instrument
AT this point the National Volunteers entered the
Square from Baltimore street. The speaker ceased
and they passed the stand and as they did so tbey
were received with tumutuous cheers, to which
they as heartily responded. Theyp passed to Lexing-
ton street, and then turned and passed around the
Square to Fayette street. Volandts band plaved

Mr.. Rose resumed his remarks by saving that il
was not the Republicans aone-not the open foes
only, but there was n party who professed to
De tor the Union-who engaged in dis.
tracing the cause of truth. lie had no desire to
speak unkindly of any party; but now, when
the country was in danger-when the Con-
stItution was threatened, to use milky words-it
was no time to "roar gently a sucking dove"
lie meant the American party. In the State of New
lork, he was happy to say that that party had
joined hands with the constitutional party and were
active In their efforts to defeat Black Republican
ism. But here in the South he found that they
were not fighting for the preservation of the rights
OF the people. Their course only tended to weaken
the power of the conservative party of the country
without the probability of their success proving
benefit to them. [Cheers. He urged the Demo
cracy to make vigorous effort to carry the State
for breckenridge and Lane, and thus assist in eleya
ting to power the only National party in the coun-
try. MIR. Rose continued to speak for an hour in
which he reviewed ably the position of the different
parties, and the results which would inevitably fol-
low the success OF either and closed with another
appeal to the Democracy to do their duty.
Mr.. Norris then proposed a vote of thanks to the
speaker, which was given, and the meeting ad-
iOurned
