A correspondent of the Gazette, writing from Hempstead county of speech made

A correspondent of the Gazette, writing from Hampstead county of a speech made by A. B. Williams, esq, says:
 "The speeches of Co.'s. Can't and Warren and that also of Gen. Joshua Whtmore were not over looked. With master hand did he demolish the hopes built up by the unfar and ungeneroas as saults of the "gallant Can't" and how easily did he destroy and scatter to the winds the oLse logic of the 6 anmortaI Warren,'' of Utah notoriety, while the openly avowea fanatcism of the meteorc General did not fail to receive just and merited rebuke at his hands,
 This strikes us as decidedly "funny." Why ungenerous? Does Col. Gantt owe his election to Mr. Bell? As for Gen. Whitmore, he may fall upon the Bell ringers ikea C meteoric stone, but every where he speaks, he will make the Union shriekers look decidedly smaH. He is one of the best "stumpers in the State, and the South has no truer son or more gallant defender
 Another. correspondent in the Gazette asks:
 < Do you know that lots of democrats in Arkan- sas are going to vote for Bell and Everett2''
 We would like to know them. Is the Hon. NJ. L. Bell, assistant Breckinridge elector, one of the gentlemen alluded to? Is Hon. Albert Pike another7 Is Hon. w. D. Reagan another? Is James Patterson another? Is w. F. Grace another?
 Two of these gentlemen, Reagan and Grace, were whig electors few years ago the former is now making successful canvass for. Breekinridge and the latter is spreading himself" " for the ''litte sucker" The others were all prominent in the whig party and are now good Breckinridge men. We expect our know nothing friends have heard of Mir. Patterson. He was appointed sub-elector and requested to help galvanize those singular old fossils, i" Bell and Ever cit, but having no taste for "primary for nations" and geological investigations, and a positive dislike for antiquities gener- ally, he respectfully declined In fact, we know great many whigs and know noth- ings who are supporting Breckinridge, but have yet to find the first Democrat who supports the 6 fossils''

He (Col Gantt,) charged Mir. Bell with favor ing the reception of abolition petitions by Congress Suppose be did. He saw, from the first, what the question would come to; for the Congress Which re pealed the rule refusing to receive abolition petit tons, was democratic by two-thirds majority. - GGzetie.
 Tie amount of this brilliant point is simply this-Mr. Bell saw the North would continue her aggressions, he saw the South gradually losing her power and influence, and knowing that democrats would at some future time pander to northern freesoilism, he very wisely anticipated them! h other words if Mr. Bell did wrong some of the democrats did also, therefore, Mir.

Inc Sincerity Of the Freedom
ShriekerS. ..r...


We copy below an article from
the Franklin Patriot, published at
Harrington, Maine, which is rath-
err calculated to strengthen the be-
lief entertained by a great many
persons, that there is great deal
more hypocrisy than sincerity in
the professions of the Republicans
of New England: ..
Mr.. Rice, died some three years
ago, in Boonville, Missouri, where
he resided, leaving an estate of
some fifteen thousand dollars,
about half of which consisted of
slave property. Dying without
issue, his brothers and sisters, and
their representatives, inherited the
estate. Three of these heirs resi-
ded in this town, one in Strong,
one in New Sharon, one in Fay
cite, one in Gardner, and one in
Lowell, Mass, and every one Of
them belong to that class who are
ever ready to ''shriek for freedom"
and shed crocodile tears over the
sufferings of the "poor slave" As
these slaves came into their hands
without any effort, cost or sacri.
fee on their part to obtain them
it would certainly be more reason
able to expect their liberation at
their hands than from southern
shareholders who have paid for
their slaves, acquired them as they
do other property, been accustom-
ed to their services and familiar
with the institution all their lives
yet the result proves the reverse to
be true. 1H @ aa'Nf
These Conscientious Anti-Slave-
ry Republicans unanimously deci-
ded to have their slaves sold into
that perpetual bondage which they
have so strenuously denounced as
the ''sum ofall villainies Their
decision has been carried into eff.
feet. The slaves have been sold
by the administrator in Missouri.

1t is a fact that need not be as
serted by US, for it is too we'll
known to be controverted, or
questioned by any, that the Re-
publican party unhesitatingly as
sert, and boldly proclaim before
the people that ''all men are cr'-
atcd free and equal and in accor-
dance with these views, they as
sert that the trainers of the Dec
laration of independence in assert
ing this, meant to include the ne
gro. But the history of the events
then transporting shows conclusive.
ly, that, in that phrase, they only
meant to assert that the subjects
of Great Britain, whether colo
nists in America, or remaining up
on the British Isles, were emit
tied to some rights and privileges
as Englishmen, aid as subjects of
the British Grown.
1t is we'll known to every per-
son at all familiar with the histo-
nv of the American Revolution
that the negro did not then form
an element in American politics.
The conflict then was confined
solely to the Englishmen of the
mother country as represented by
King George and the British Par
lament and their descendants in
the American Colonies.
Tut the false theory of the Re-
publican party is fully exposed by
Mr.. Trumbull Of ILL.,, who under
went one of the most severe trials
in the Senate of =. s., on being
criticised by Mr.. johnson ofTenn.,
as to the truth of the teaching of
his party.
Mr.. T. explained that it was an ab-
stract truth that all men were created
equal, but when we come to form gov
ernments and organize society all per-
sons don't have equal rights. The es-
sei:ion in the Republican platform, as
copied from the Declaration Of indie
penience, was merely the enunciation
Of a great natural truth. In the organ
iza:ion Of society We infringe as little
as possible on that natural right, but nc
government is perfect, and therefore we
do in Illinois make distinction between
tie political right of men and women.
MIR johnson asked him if Arizona
were colonizcd and filled up altogethe,
with free colored people, would ne b.
willing to admit it as q State upon al
equal footing with the other States o
tts confederacy.

not admit any community applying to
become members Of this coafederacy, by
thu admission Of which ne supposed b.
