SEsArn.-Mr. Davis resolution was taken
up.
Mr.. Douglas concluded his speech of yes
terday. The folio wing abstract gives fair
idea OF the most of the remainder
The Charleston Convention decided he was
it's choice as candidate for the Presidency.
He bad no desire for that Office; be preferred
seat in the Senate, and his name would
never have been presented at Charleston but
for an attempt 70 prescribe him. He was
forced to allow bis name to be used in self
defense. He bad no such lust for off, az
would induce him to accept the nominate on
when be found himself not the choice of the
majority. He would scorn to accept the
nomination under such circumstances. He
Was glad the Democratic party had deter
mined to preserve ito organisation. IL was
the only conservative party OF the country
numerous enough to save the Union. He
was proud to be among its upholders, against
those who aim to destroy it because il would
not change its platform. The attempt to
destroy the party was entrusted 10 worthy
hands. Yancsy had cause to be proud Of
bic achievements there. In '48 he proelaime cd
the same doctrine, and could not get his
State to secede with him.
So shuh uoaouuuoh uishoiUbious 0nU again
urged in favor Of non intervention, under
which the South had got slave territory no
TO latitude 38, when in 40 and $50 they oniy
claimed up to SO deg. 30 min. IL was The
only platform upon which be could stand
IL was not susceptible OF two constructions.
The only difference was az to judicial CUES
ton, which would be settled by the courts
The Tennessee platform was liable to two
cootructions. He wanted no double deal
ings, but wanted them TO stand upon the
Cincinnati Platform as all had understood
IL. II the doctrine Of Intervention prev nj ed
| the irrepressible conflict would continue until
enc section was subdued by the other, o,
they be obliged TO separate, in order to live
quietly. Non-intervention vac the banns,
under which all the conservative men could
unite.
Davis replied at some length, denying
Mr.. Douglass statement that the Charleston
seceders contemplated disunion. The SenA
| tor from Illinois was like the witness on thu
stand who commenced at the deluge and had
| gone over vast cunt Of ground, but hat
not come down to the present time. TIL,
Supreme Court had made all the deeisiont i
eeuid make on 3 political question, and i
was now necessary that public men shoul,
