The resolutions unanimously adopted, Hoa. F. P, Stanton was then introduced, and addressed the audience as follows:— Geatlemen—When I accepted the invitation of your Sommittee to meet you and address you on this ocsasion, hardly expected so cordial a meeting. I cannot refuse to say that such a greeting from such an audience is pe- Culisrly gratifying to my feelings I am not acquainted; gentlemer—harcly at all acquainted—with the oitisens of this great metropolis; I know but little of your babite Of thought, and still jess of the mode of +peaking to which you ‘are accustomed’. Upon this occasion, thare- fore, I oan only promise to give you a frank, plain and’ candid exposition of my own epiniona in refer- ence to thore great and absorbing juestions upon which you have acted here to night, and 10 promptly and patriotically on the resolutions just ado 1a short, gentlemen, being a Western men, or rather a Southwest orn man, | propose to give you, accordivg to the custom of our country, what we call stamp speech.’ (Great applause) Is is true that there is on thing wanting to give zest to the interest of the occasion, anc that is the presence of an opponent. (Laughter and applause.) For you know, according to our Western custom especially, waen we ara before the people for an election, we travel the district over with our most eloquent men. To one accustomed to ruch occasions as there, you may well imagine it is some wo respectfully what fawe ard rather depressing” depriving one of the stimulus of opposition conflict, to appear upon an ocoa- sion like the present without that stimulus to arouse forl- ings int> action, Nevertheless, gentlemen, I am glad and 4 of this opportunity of addressing you to-night. here in this great city romethirg like an epitems of the great country of which you constitute the great com mercial metropolis, I find individuals from every narter of the country, North, South, Esst aud fest. I find a sort of cosmoyolitan feeling among the Liberal democsats of this city. In order to under. stand the contest of opinions at the present mo- ment, let us go back fo: # short time to the origina of the difficulties, and to the commencement of these recent divisions which have convulsed the country to iw very foundation. It was my fortune, geatienea, to have been a member of {he House of Represen- tatives when Mr. Wilmot, of Peresylvania, ross on the floor of the Houss, and presented that celeorated resolution called the Wilmot proviso. I believe it was well understood to have »een excited if not originated by a very distinguished citizen of your own Sta e—a man who had enjoyed the bighest honors which the democrs- tic party have ever found themselves able to besto w upoa any map. The origin will be found ia the disappointed expectations of thateminent and distioguished citizen of your State. Buthere was provented the ure bich he p oposed to gratify his malig inst the pesce of bis country and the prosperity of tae party which hai done him honor. (Applause.) Such was the feeling of the'Sonth at taat time, as you well remember, when principlas were established for the purpose’ of degraciog Southern rights. We called conventions of the Southern pso plé, and the Southern people very unanimously de termined that th's proposition was a gross violation of their liber'ies, to which they ould never submit Tais, gentlemen, was the universal feeling, and showed in what utter deteftation~in what thoroug’ contempt, were the men held who supported this iniquitous measare Prat time—men who propcsed to lay toeir profave h: ‘upon the very covslitution itself, and bring dow temple of liberty about ourears, (Applause) What did the Southern people do at that time! I was among them at that time, anc I am net ashsmed to avow that I parti- cipated in ail the feeliogs of the Southern people, when ‘they determined that they would not submit to that na- just and iniquitous measure. (Great spplause.) Tae Wilmot Previeo at that time proposed to degrade the 3 utherm States, to prescribe and govern their domestic institutions—to ‘deprive them of equal participation to the benefits and acvacteges of the nation— her property purchased by the common bloed and the common treasure, The people of the South, incited by these feelings, and with their firm determination under this‘sense of degradation, determined to resist all these encroachments, at all hazards, and to the last extremity. ext ft me | Well, gentlemen, I koow and very ankly ledge, and many of you will agree with me, that many good men—mary patriotic men through- out the Southern States, were led astray at that time. A: the first moment of the contest they were uncertain of Pegheryy #0 800m as the smoke cleared away from the field of battle they rushed forward to the contest ani Qasorted their rights. It is true, gentlemen, that thee things seem to be in » measure forgotten by some of the Southe m men—some of thore who consider themselves leader: the South ingly, that there uch & contest in the Northern Btates, in whi al true and patriotic men stood side by side with them in the pro’ection of their Gearest rights ; but I tell you here to night, chat the ps rm people have forgotten, reem- | CRATIC NATIONAL CLUB | | democratic administration countenanoing such a principle triomph, enemien’o ‘The rams, of July 7, 1852, rays: — ilers of tho North are oatremely soldsh his Kote for Concral Seows without m full shure of ‘They keow their obi fall fell »wehit ominee of she Whig Convention, and frem his hi of the 2d August reports Mr. A. chojson to bave said, in a pub!

(Applause.) Gentlemen, the great battle was fought dariog the Thirty- first Congress, and the celebrated compromise measures were dim 1860, which restored comparative peace and quiet throvugbout the whole country. It happened that my humble self having been one of the most earnest defenders of the constitutional rights of the South, and one of the most earnest opposers of the Wilmot Provies, in all ita shapes and forme—it happened to me that 1 op eed several of the compromice measures, with the and tion that something more satis’actory to the South would pave deen secured by our pesition.

Ido not care to inquire into the cause of that separation; I do not care to go to Syracure, and to determine whether ‘the opposite party—the “* softs’? as tl ed io your State—adopted any unworthy, an, 8, of carrying their ends in that convention.

The demooratic members of the House of Representatives met in caucus on the previous Saturday, I thought, gentlemen, that something ought to be done. I was ver; Well satisfied that the Democratic Convention at Balti- more had not intended to do a useless and senseless thing when they established the platform of principles for the party, I felt well satisfied that the declaration of thet paso meant something more then mere acquiescence. was satisfied that it did not intend to give the free soil- era any room to dodge. I was satisfied that it did not intend to permit the free soilers of this or of any State to stand upon the platform, with all their sins sud heresies upon them; and, gentlemen, I thought that we of the democratic party ought to make some declaration on that subject. I introduced a series of lutions, which no doubt you haves all seea. Well, ove gen'ieman who two years provious took his hat and Jeft s similar caucus because it refused to pass com- promise resotutions, and let the matter go to the Balti- more Convention; that gentleman, on a mers quidble, argued that my resolutions must ‘ie on the table one day— that is, uatil the next meeting of the caucus, which will be fn 1865—and the chairnan of the caucus sustained that point My sesolutions are now lying on the tadie,’ aod I suppose they will oo: up about the same time that President Pierce’s arlet letter” will come up. (Laughter and plane.) Bat, gentlemen, what was the meaning of this on the part cf the demosratic organ city What did they mean when the Union contended that the Democratic mation at Baltimore ex- preares not an “approval,” but @ mere ‘acquiescence’ in the Compromise measures? They meant simply to gl the free soilers of the Northern States a» opportunity to stand on that platform with us, without pict pa up their old opinions, That is what it’ means, or it means no- thing. I willcancidly confers that the resolution of the Baltimore Platform on that subject was carefully drawn up for the purpose of meeting objections; bat it was with a view to meet the objections of these Southern men who opposed the Compromise measures, but not by any means to give the free soilers room to dodge. Does any man enyppose that it was to give the slightest favor to the prizciples of free soiliam or Wilmot provitoism? And yet the purpose and object for which that position was ‘Assumed in the goveroment organ was to justify the r sevens free ee into the bosom of ee party, anc wing upon patronage and office. thought, when I introduce! my resolutions into the caucus at Washi that there would not be s South ern man who w hesitate to vote for them, I heard jeveral gentlemen say that they were exactly right; they agreed to every word of them, ‘ proper oovssion.” But, at all ts, gentlemen, wheter correctly or not, I am not the proper judge to Getermine; they have never found ap occasion up to this day to express the «pinions they then avowed, Now, gentlemen, there are some other things which I cannot understand and whieh = may have some diffi- culty in comprehendiog. Not long since I heardee- Vir ginia gentleman on the floor of the H suse of Representa- lves say that he sympathized with the harde—that Vir- ginis sympathized with the harde—the whole Souta sympathized with the hsrds. Then the hards must be right and the softe wrong. But we see some of these sympathisers take the softs to their bosoms, (Laughter and applause ) To sympathise with the hards is to ac knowledge that the administration hes been wrong. I have no doubt that Gen. Pierce is well aware of his errors, and that James Guthrie would give his ears to get that Brovson !otter back again. But the President is aware of bis place, power and position, and it can hardly be expected that he will make a fair back out. I think, however, that the time is coming when it must be done— ‘ashingtoa The question which is to brieog about this result is on} the repeal of the Missoari compromise relative to the government of the Territories of Nebraska and Kansas.

This fully shows the character of those journals whose conduc‘ors are not goverzed bi Prineiple, but merely by an affection for ie spoils; and I am sorry to say that there are several Southern journals who are of this rtamp. I am not in the secrets of this administra- tion, as you know; (janghter.) but it is said at Washing- ton thats Cabinet meeting was held, and that General Pierce was plainly told by rome of his Southern friends that the administration must, go for the repeal of the compromise or b: up. And, not without wrangling, not without titter words, not without dissension, the Cabinet was brought to action. Well, the orders were given out, asd the Union, ard a large portion of the ad- minietration ee oy the House of Representatives, sud- deply arrived at the same conclasion. It remains to be seen whether the softs will sleo come to it. You have heard from Perkins, Hughes, Dean, and th is no doubt tha: others will follow om the same adhere to the Wilmot Proviso wing.

Mr. Manning, of Gloucester, is a hunker, teo, but he was never heard of before his appointment to the collectorship. He was brought forward ata time when there was some contention as to who should have the place. Mr. Pease is a hunker, and not much, even at that. He “hangs out’ at Edgartown, which I take to be about the smallest place this side of the Valley of Humiliation. The ‘nationals’ are looking up, REeonlay as Dr. Wales has been appointed on no less than six com- mittees by the Speaker of our House of Representa- tives. There are some Massachusetts appointments that have not yet been reached by the Senate, which will test that body’s ideas on the coalition here. A rominent Massachusetts member of Congress writes «me that any appointment made here will be con- firmed, no matter what the antecedents of the nominee. Se ends the “crushing out’’ process of C. Cushing, Esq. By.the way, the Post Office at Wor- cester still remains in the hands of a whig, whose commission expired more than eight months ago, and all because the administration hasn't the nerve to decide between to persons, one of whom has asked for the place without being recommended for it, and the other being recommended without having asked for it. Brave men, these ‘“crashers.’ The legislative proceeniney are dull as ever. There is not the slightest sign of any fun ahead, ex- cept that some persons say tlfat the Maine law is to be repealed, which I can’t as yet believe. That would make sport fora time; but the whigs canno} screw their courage up to the sticking place, andare not prepared to march to the tune of the “ Cruiskeen Lawn.” It is not respectable enough for them, and they prefer marching to some more sober air. The ‘committee on amending the constitution are en- £ ed in elaborating some reforms, such as shall to keep themselves in power, and are confident it anywhere.

The free soilers are rather despondent over it, for they believe that the measure is to be decided in behalf of the extension of slavery. The democracy are rather blue, for they fear defeat throughout the free States as the consequence of the discussion of the question, however it may be decided in Congress, | of finding asses ssctied z es Of their papers, there is not one that has come out tact aie ee Tt a bonne szexeal wane in support of the measure, save two or three that are edited by office-holders, and which are the barrel-or- gans of servility. The whigs are in great spirits, for they look to see the democratic party split clean in two, and so be themselves enabled to walk into pow- er easily,’as they did in 1848, I should think that seven-eighths of the people here are opposed to the proposed repeal of the Missouri compromise, and the remainder are by no means active on the other side. The abolitionists had the subject up at their meeting on Wednesday, when they resolved that to repeal that compromise would justify an exercise of the right of revolution on the part of the people. Charles Burleigh got off a shocking. y severe thing at the expense of John Mitchel. Mr. Kemp, an ree y was very denunciatery the stupidity of our 0; ition, were it not that they aye so oniee raeert itas to make it an old thing. e whigs have the most cheerful reli- ance on this stupidity, and joke about it as one of their surest sources of power. They are quite good- natured on everything except the subject of office- holding. There are to be resolves introduced on the subject of slavery in Nebraska. Mr. Rontoul’s monument at Beverly, is described by those who have seen it as a beautiful affair. It is Italian marble, resting on granite, and {s an wu right four-sided shaft, capped and d at the topina pepe beat form. The inscription states the date of the birth and death of Mr. Rantoul, and mentions his labors in behalf of education, tempe- rance, and the abolition of capital Le his cepaaee to the fugitive slave law, &c. The cost of ¢ Monument was $500. The Sabbath is to be observed here, in future, with more rigidnes than it has been of late.

Phis Nebraska business is nuts to the abolitionists, who expect to make almost as much out of it as the whigs, though their gains are not likely to be of so sulid a cbaracter. The cold weather of this week has been very favor- able to the gathering of ice, and tuousands upon thousands of tons have accordingly been “made” in various towns. In Cambridge, West Cambridge, Woburn, Concord, Weston, Grovon, and many other horns, punches,cocktai to be hereafter sold on the first day of the week—at least, openly. People who want to buy or sell them must ae the place where the deacon kissed his neighbor's wife—behind the door of the darkest room in house. The question of using the city gov: ernment’s power t2 enforce the liquor law is under consideration. Otr Sheriff has writs against some of our heaviest rum dealers, which he has been afraid to entorce, hitherto, because of the effect of ao doing on politics, snd now he is waiting for thedeci- sion of the Supreme Court. The law is already en- forced in most places very fully; and should the opinion of the court be adverse to the rammies, yon seed look out for a large allowance for broken glass. towns, it has been housed to an enormous amount. Some of our Boston military are a1 with Gov. It is mortly of a very superior quality, and we shall because of the charact of bis stair have apy it all, te it true! thet wreold winter is Ribas Siohs aie ay pointments. Boston has been neglected, they say, and they think they do well to be angry because of such neglect. They should console themselves with the recollection that, in the matter of civil appoint: ments,Boston had had something more than the lion's share, though, perhaps,nothing more than she has weil earned of the present government. Decidedly, the Boston pekins have the advantage of the military. It appears from official documents that the tetal number of persons relieved or supported as paupers in Massachusetts, during the year —— November 1, 1853, was 26,414. Of this number 11,864 were foreigners. Ishould hardly believe this latter state- ment were it made on anything less than official au- thority, for there are some people who solemnly as sure us that a foreigner cannot be a pauper. The total cost of relieving and supporting paupers was $465,599 24. The number of indigent children re- lieved was 2,630. The condition of our banks is such as ought to alarm prudent men. Their circulation has largely increased since the report for 1852 was made, while sure to be followed by a hot summer. There has been some scarcity of water during this week in the city. The quantity consumed during one day was 13,000,000 of gallons, and the reservoirs were drained. The Beacon Hill reservoir gave out on Thursday at noon, and the very patrician classes were ‘cut off” even more summarily than if they had neglected to pay their water rates, an evil in which they had fellow sufferers, being the colored population of Jay street. An old well was found, and was as greedily set upon asa brackish spring in the desert. There wasa good deal of vexation caused, and some amusing atories are told of the conduct of the water seekers. It was a sort of earthly illustration of the story of Dives, only that Lazarus was out of water too. The following statement of the value of the foreign merchandise transported in bond to Canada, from the district of Bosten and Charlestown, for the five years ending September 30,1853, and which has been compiled from the Custom House books, may rove interesting to some of your readers: — Years.

The increase of banks and bank capital in Smaiete has little to do with any other consideration than its effect on the revenue. If it will increase taat, most people seem to think all will be well ; and so, to save them- selves from being compelled to add a few dollars to their direct tax bills, men of property who would be very wroth if you were to question their intelligence, are content to aid in bringing about a state of things which must end in a blow up at some future day, oy property will be immensely decreased in vaiue. I presume you have survived the onslaught of the Boston Post. No one here cares what that paper may say on any subject. Its nauseous servilit; towerds the Pierce administration has disgu: every decent man in the democratic party, and des treyed whatever of confidence the public had in it before. The manly support of an administration is one thing, while such lickspittleism as the Post is guilty of is quite a different thing. But what can you expect of a concern that is conducted as it is. ALGOMA. The Pome article bronght down in 1850 was ashes; since 1850 it has been almost entirely flour. According to the eld balance of trade theory, the Canadians must be in a bad way if their importa- tions and exportations via other ports much resem- ble the above. Luckily, that theory has been found altogether at war with practice. The new (Catholic) “Church of the Immaculate Conception’’ prowises to be a great ornament to Bos- ton. It is to be built at the corner of iremont and Canton streets. It isto be of freestone, and of the Gotbic order—or disordgr, as 1 once heard a ‘'Gre- cian’ call it. There is fo be a nave and two aisles, with a chapel on each sideof the high altar. The in- terior dimensions will be 180 feet by 75. ‘Two towers, with noble spires, will rise to the height of 200 feet ond upwards. There are to be side eutranzes, in ad- dition to the main entrance. The dwelling place of the pastor and his assistants, with a sacristy and a school houce, will adjoin the church, and are to be so built as to harmomze with thas edifice. The land above that on which the church is to stand, and on Canton street, has been purchased with the intention to erect on it a hospital and an asylum for orphans. The oie which the church is to occupy is well calculated to display its beauties, and to render it a striking point in the city. Withoat having any par- ticular admiration tor the Catholics as religionists, and well aware of the antagonism which their charch presents to liberality aud progress, I can easily agree with those who attribute to them a decided superiori- Damaers Rercssp Por IxsJusies FROM JUMPING vron a THatn WHILE 1x Motion.—In the Supreme Court, in the case of Catharine Crosse vs. the South Reading Branch Railroad Company, the jary retired at about four o'clock Te lay afternoon, and at nine this morning, after being out all night, they returned into coat with a verdict for the de- fendants.
