When the last resolution was relchel, tho couio',
between the two classes represented IN The ConEenoi
fret took patent form, alihoIgh an aIoe "GToL,e

Mr. UlshOtf;r moved TO amend the resolution, 80 tha'
the General Government, az well az me Sece'Soms,s
should be called upon 10 stay ts hands and leave the
sword unsheathed unil patriotism shall lee une its
,Nv9y which called az au animated and eloquent
second speech from Ihayer, who, a. ne RAJ done 10 7
regular speech denounced the humbug of the enforce.
ment of the laws IS cunning trap by which the
Republicans Turing Oh Democrats 10 their de,
structiOn; and, IN answer 10 one who suggested
that the General Government bad not drawn the
sword, and that the spirit of the resolutions CON
templated that il sboTld not until all measures

in our power. Mr.. 1hayer Is the spokesman OF t'le
payty in the Convention imbued with the Revelation
ary spirit, and the impulses oil the majority are "l'n
him as would also be their votes If ana
more poG,ie men were not on the watch J. b. Skn-

Than restored by speaker who followed on the TeVo-
Ia ionary side when tall, thin form arose VIII an
almoet spectral paleness, but with the glance OF an
eagle He was called 20 take the stand aud as nc
can m from the gloom OF his place under the gal
leri.s recognized the venerable George w. clinton,
looking 80 he was the representative OF the Democ-
racy OF the past-of the day6 Of Andrew jackson.
This was a critical time. ] doubt whether even the
eloquence Of Horaio Seymour who was keeny alive to
Lis duty and was watching his opportunity woald have
been able To- restrain the lmpetuosy OF the mass who
were evidently with Thayer and bis views. Bot Chn-
ton not only checked the Masses he set the managers
reec,ing and thinking, and Of the hardest kind,
was done in that body, in the ten minutes that fol-
lowed than had been done during all the rest OF the
sessions of ths Convention. They were told that the
Union meant the Government, and that tie Union
must be rreserye when be said that he meant It 10
tho senss that Andrew jackson meant IT, Very alnt
cheers at the name Of Jackson What were they talk
ing about Did they not know that whole eomunnltrs
were in rebellion against the Government " NO,
NO fesounded from all parts Of the hall Not re-
helhon, only revolution and other similar cries re-
sounded drought the Convention. IL tell you, sii
Judge Clinton secession rebellion, and no govern
meu can exist for day that cannot put down rebellion
against IT. authority" The true pi u7 of the state OF
things portrayed by him. and which had been most
carefully blinkeI bv every o.hCt speaker, created
mea'nefs evident in al qnnrters, and finally the
JUDGE was called from the PAST TO the present, from
the Democrat Of the days OF a genuine democracy TO
the Democrat Of to dayirou the man to the delegate
by call 10 order which * the first and sjltary IN

when the mover If the amendment withdrew y. Mr.
1heyer who had seconded II, said that, aB he mad
