OF Scrr Jersey.
We haNr just read with deep interest The
eloquent address delivered hy Col. james ".
Wall. nf New Jersey. Il; lhe conservative
meeting held at Newark, nn the 22rd nit.--
The distinguished reputation oi this gentle
man, his uniform adherence 10 the great State
Rights PRINCIPLES Of the Democratic party, and
. the influence which he wirds in the politics of
his State, give much weight to the sentiments
which he expresses in the midst Of the existing
crisis in cur federal relations Weregret very
luurh that ,hr space a; ol,r disposal docs not
permit us 10 publish Col Walls address in
full. The following extracts furnish specl-
men Of the -cholar-likc chastity of expression
and force Of cloqrcnce which rcr"adr ih" en-
tire discourse
We have assembled here, citizens, 10 rel,rw
our VOWS OF devotion tu common rnuntry.-
We stand here pre- enincntly Tonight by the
altar of our nationality, and beneath the pro-
tccting shadow of that liag whose clustering
stars still cInhlelnizc Il united people We
have cnIue up helc, If | understand the full
purpnrt OF Your call, IL give assurance 10 these
ui our brethren oi the South, nov excited by
apprehcusoHs Of cur !0yalty--that the Nortli-
crn heart sill pul>atrS in unison with theirs,
as in those trial days when Northern aud when
Southern blood lnn in Ole mingled current
upon Your battle plains-that the Northern
eye still turi,s ,ruStihgly to the pole star Of
the Constilution--and the Northern foot is
ready as ever To keep step to the mnsic Of the
! Cn!un.
Referring tn Wa>ngton'S farewell address,
the orator wcaves in the following exquisite
similc:
Let th,. nation then go To il on the next
. birth day Of lis llr,strious author as the dc.
yuut Mu>lrn goes to the llcarcn-scnt 'kaahah
stone in ,hr House ni Allah, as its sanctuary
and saGe.gunld And as lrom the inspiration
that flashes rrom III" Oriental talisinan u; Nee
ca, the No-em ly look conccives that he al
iains lai,l, in his religion that dies not, and 4
s,Irc certainty lis vndnraEce-So likewise may
+! il hr the nations privilege as it looks more
, STEADILY al and rrvrrcnrcS more dcronlly the
truths in that sublime address, TO attain faith
in the perpetuity oithe Republic that will never
. die. and a confidence in its future endurance
! that no apprehension can rhake."
, In conclusion, We call especial attention 10
| the inrciIlr condensation embodied in the fol-
owim. paragraph:
l;n, with an excited people, it il all folly for
vri 10 enter into logical aualysis-to measure,
with ::eolnctrical analysis, how far their fc.l.
; ngs ought to be outraged; to show them, with
! nuthrtpaticnl accuracy. how dcen the iron
ought to enter their souls before they should
sr0an, how much the flesh should culver when
/ the pinccrs tear, and l,ow much blood shall
! follow when the knife is driven For q long
