8 : YORK HERALD, MONDAY, JULY 21, 1856. VIRGINIA WHIG STATE CONVENTION. Willard Fillmore Bndorsed and the Kuow Nothings Bepadiated, CALL FOR A WHIG NATIONAL CONVENTION, &e., &e., &eo. Virginia Whig State Convention. SPECIAL REPORT FOR THE HERALD. ‘Ricumonp, Va , July 17, 1858. The whig State Convention resumed its session to-day, in Metropolitan Hall, the Hon, Wyndam Robinson in the chair. 1 have telegraphed a brief account of yester- day's proceedings, which consisted chiefly of the prelimi- naries usual at conventions—such ag the appointment of a President and Vice Presidents, Secretaries and Commit- tee on Resolutions. There was ® speech or two, but of such little interest a8 scarcely justifies the trouble of re- porting and transcribing them. ‘Soon alter the meeting of the Convention, at 11 o'clock this morning, Mr. We. H. McFar.anp, chairman of the Committee on Resolutions, announced that that commit- tee would not be prepared to report before 4 o'clock, P. representing, as the cause of this delay, an earnest desire on the part of the committee to prepare such a report as would commend itself to the approbation of the Conventien, as well as every member of the party throughout the State and Union. He pieaded as an addi- tional apology for this delay, the excessive heat of the weather, and the consequent difficulty in discharging the duties imposed upon the committee. He asked that they be allowed until four o’clock, P. M., to prepare their re- port. Leave was granted, and the committee thereupon retired to a room in the building. Loud calls were then made for Dr. Tirrell, of Orange county, to addrees the Convention. He yielied to the call, and after the applausetwhich hailed his appearance tubsided, said:— Mr. Puesipent—I certainly feel myself placed in a new position, Though three score years and upwards have passed over my head, curing which time I have attended many de iberative bodies, I have always been content to actasaprivate member, doing whatever was in my power inan humble and obscure way. But upon the present occasion, looking at the cause in which we are engaged, I believe that the most inexperienced and least disciplined in public affairs can throw some light on the questions involved in the present canvass, and render more or less aid towards the success of cause in which we are embarked. And first, sir, Ideem it right forme, in my present condition, to say that although I have approved of many of the principles of the American party, yet, as an old line whig, I siand more as I have stood since 1840—im- moveable on whig principles. (Applause.) Although not an entire partisipant, | have always been a careful observer and attentive listener to all that has been said ‘and done in the progress of the several contests in which that old party had been engaged. I find that the same system that was pursued by the de- mocratic party in 1840 is attempted to be pursued now. I well remember that at the Democratic Couvention beld in Charlottesville, the September preceding the elec- tien, the same system of brag was attempted that is now being played. Mr. Thomas Ritchie, at that time and in that convention proc aimed, that he received letters from distinguished democratic leaders from all parts of the Union, stating that Mr. Van Baren’s election was beyond doubt; and when I Jook to the public record of Mr. Van Buren and compare it with the record of the present candidate of the democratic party, the parallel is per- fect, and the circumstances just such aa te encourage the belief that the results will be the same. (Cheers.) Mr. Van Buren in the State Senate of New York during the pending of the discussions upon the Missouri compromise took precisely the position which Mr. Buchanan occupied elsewhere. 1 prefer Mr. Fillmore to Mr. Buchanan, because he is the physician who, when we had a national disease upon us, Applied a remedy and succeeded etfectually in ridding us its effects; and I now believe, from the bottom of my beart, that if there was no bane(u! influence of party ope- rating at this time apon the country, Millard Fillmore bg J now be elected by acclamation by the people of the United States. (Applause.) This same party, who now ask for a continuation of public (avor, say, if notin words, at least in practice, that they are the oaly party capable of administering the government. They say, in fact, that all who belong to that party are aloue capable of discharging the duties of governmest, while in truth they themselves bave been guilty of all the ma! administration which the history of our go- vernment presents. In what manner have they acted in regard to the administration of the alfairs of our own State, particularly with reference t» our financial affairs? speaker here reviewed the administration of the democratic party in Virginia, show ing that the enormous imposts under which the people re now suffering were applicable to the mal.administra tion of that party. He also referred to the financial opera tious of that party In the federal administration, which he proved to be analogous in their results to those which have beco characteristic of their administration of the af fairs of 0 He said Benton charged the present m with all the crimes and abominations that covlt possibly be perpetrated by any government, apd that they expended from seventy to eighty millions a year, which was an outlay cnexampled in the bi of American administration. Now, sir, whea the democratic party are asked to allow a portion ot the income to be distributed among the States, they turn round and say that Congress has no courtitutional power to appropriate mouey from the federal trewury for works of ,internal improve- ment. | agree with them to some extent. I know that there are great constitutional barriers which surround roment. Iknow that were it otherwise it would dvantage to the South. But what are the facts? lands, and what is the dite ropriating money?

In regard to Fremont, the black republican candidate, I will o ye word. He is ontof the question. But what is the comparison between Mr. Fillmore and Mr. Buchauan’ What are their antecedents?’ Why, sir, we find during the administration of General Taylor after be Was eciected in connection with Millard Fillmore, the state of the country was much as itis now. During that edministration, an’ pending the agitation of the compro. mise of 1550, it made slowfprogress. There were gloom and alarm from one end of the Union to the other. It was then that this man of whalebone, (Mr. Ritchie) as Genera! Gordon, oi Albemarle, used to call him, appealed to all parties for the sake of the Union, to step forward and aid in saving the country. Sir, Gen lor, by an act of Providence, was taken away. and Mr. Fillmore was called to the throne. | say throne,jof course not in respect to the systems of governments which recognize this form of supremacy. but to convey the idea of true grandeur and eminence as it attaches to the proud aod lofiy position which is oceupied by the President of these United States He (Mr. Fillmore) came there; and what did we see in relerence to his administration’ In a few days we see this ay Bg ~ ay; we see the prospects growing db brighter. untii the fgal consummation of that compromise of 1550.

Sir, Itis but a short time ago that those old whigg who have remained whigs in fact, were the subjects of the praise of every democratic eaiwor, and they could not find time and opportunity exough to bestow uy them their most extravagant landatioos. That was e with the vain hove of briuging us over to the democratic ranks. Now that we have come here to re-assert our principles and re-organize our party, and to say that we will not affiliate with them, it scems that we have pitiadle: and contemptible in their estimation. And, sir, since that isthe sentiment, I propose to this Conveution that the whigs of this State shall go forth with a determined ener- gy to make themselves telt in thit State. While am unwilling to delay This Convention by any extended remarks, I feel it 18 proper that I should in the outset recommend the claims of that party—I mean the democratic party—to the South at large, as also to all conservative men throughout the Union generally. (Cheers.) Isay that if their record proves anything, it is that they have oven true but to one principle, and that has been relent ess decapitation of every whig, and, in fact, every opponent they have had; and they have, not- withstanding this indiscriminate proscription upon the whig party, when the American party, unadvisedly as I though at that time, in some few cases, thought proper to lay the hand of proscription upon some member of the democratic party, you found them meeting and indulging in professions of the most virtuous indignation at the proscription which the oid line whigs had been alw the victims of. The democratic orators preached in tones of indignation throughout the State oa the subject of whig proscriptioa, when the most dire aud unrelenting proscription was tised by themselves. These protession:, sir, reminded me of a brazen strumpet boasting of her virtue. {latughter.) What are the claims ot this party to public support? Do you not re- member, sir, that when the compromise measures were the subject of agitation, and when this Union was almost rent in twain by that agitation, the democratic party of Virginia met in primary assembly and declared that the passage of these measures would justify a dissolution of this Union? When they entered this protest against these measures there seemed to be a decided determination to carry out this purpose thus so earnestly proclaimed; but Sir, in their progress, and when Mr. Fillmore summoned to his aid the ability and patriotism of the country, and these measures were passed and embedded in the hearts of the people, these very democratic orators who were previously so much opposed to them, came upon the stump and avowed that Pierce was a better compromise man than General Scott, and they confronted us and swore that we were unsound upon those measures; in fact, they outswore us in the end. Further, they have got a principle in their plat. form which says ‘‘that it is unconstitutional to make interna! improvements by the eral government’ — they say that it is consistent with that Principle to take the money out of the federal at ig Se apply it to the construction of lighthouses for safety of navi- gation; but if an obstruction lies below the surface, that same constitution does net allow you to take that movey and remove that obstruction. (Caeers.) Now, sir, when Isee these thiogs—when I see this party in- consistent with itseif in all its practices—when I see that they rest their claims to preference upom such grounds as these, L say that they should be disregarded, and that they are too incousistent aud ambiguous to be relied upon. (Cheers.) But, sir, what is the claim of this party upon the South? Do you not remember, sir, that when the bilows of our political ocean lashed the very temple of our liberty, and when the storms of adversity lowered over it, Millard Fillmore stood in the fury of that storm, with the patriot. ism and ability of other gallant spirits summoned round um, and as God said, “Let there be light; and there was it.” Mr. Fillmore said, “These billows be calm, and they were calm’’—these clouds that dim the sky of our politieal horizon were =pauned by a bow of promise and of peace? (Loud and long coutinued cheers.) ‘This democratic party waa in danger, and the issue would have been like some horned monster, which, in its progress over this iand, like the trail of ‘the serpent over the glorious land of Eden, would have polluted the blessed objects it touched, but for the deliverance of Mul- lard Filmore (cheers): for, by his patriotism, the last echo of discord was hushed in the sweet notes of his mu- sic, and the winter of our discontent was made glorious mmer by that gallant son of New York. (Applause: | will not detain this Convention longer. For one, | can only say that Iam prepared, to the full exteat of my humbie ability, to do battle in the noble cause which we are here to re-inaugurate. (Loud cheers.) Mr. Joux R. Kuntxy, of Nansemond county, being loudly called upon, came forward and said:—Mr. President and gentiemen—I came here to share in the deliberations of this Convention: but, sir, 1am now, as always, ready and willing t something at least in behalf of this po- liey, which I have always held sacred; for, since I have lad anything to do wita politics, | have been a whig—an old line whig, if you choose—and nothing but a whig. (Appiause.) I came here, therefore, teeliug anxious that this Convention might do something to the re-establish- ment of the whig party upon tha; firm foundation which we bave so long occupied. I came here not particularly to assist in promoting a re-organization of the whig par- ty. for I doubted not that, being actuated by the purest principles of patriotism, as in ¢ goue by—but | came here for the purpose of contributing to the adoption would best tend omsoever among n most competent to promote the prosperity at Union, (Ap plause.) We ail came ducements to incite us, We came bere for the purpose of maintaining the com- promises and the Liiution, a# also those conservative views without which the government cannot be main- tained. (Applause ) I have been pleased to hear the remarks of the gentle- man who has taken his seat. | agree with him thet the democratic party are consistent in but few things. might add that they are in one other thing. They are consistent in the name of democracy, and in ever claiming the spoils. Unless in these respects, I know of nothing in w they are truly con- sistent look at thei past actions. look you, Mr. President and gentiemen of ths Convention. if they can point to one solitary —— which has been before the country for years past they have been united upon. ‘olnt to the tarifi.

They are in thet united upon no one principle; and yet we old line whige are asked to unite with them in electing Mr. Buchanan. They have assumed, in the first place, that Mr. Bucbaaan is to be elected; and, in the next piace, that we ihave no political rights of own—that our oplaions shall be merged in their opinions. I need not tell you how ab- surd such ideas are. they are, infact, but in Keeping with the general policy and actions of that party. We are actuated by that spirit of union and harmony whieh t& the best guarantee of success, and we will do in Our own district everything that is necessary to be done in order to maintain the organization of the whig yand secure uecess, We prefer, as our choice, lard Fillmore, no matter by what party nominated, and that because he was weighed in the balance and not ¢ we can look to bim who bas 4 up against his friends and say that the (Cheers.)

Cheers.) Gentlemen, the whigs of Londoun county are now where they ever have been— faithfo! to the banner of the whig party, and true to its princi (Cheers.) Sir, you may have doubta, you must have doubts to other quarters, but I tell you, you ‘Way entertain no doubts as w the action and as to the yous of the whigs of Toudoun county. Sir, 1 feel it to be an honor 'n to represent those any in this Con- vention: I feel it to be an honor to be able to stand i here and tell you that these whigs of Loudoun, unsedu by the biandiahments of friends or the frowns of others, wil entertain the same principles which they entertained since the fonndation of the y. Sir. we are not attached to the party as a party eare attached to the name of whig, but still more attached to the grent principles which have ever actuated, and now artiate, the whig party. Sir, since the time that the oame whig’ was introduced into the English language | 83 3 a i Fe? : a g ES if if Fé f l , i a u F F if et ife i tee ee ge 2? ; i Fi i B l i B3 was suspended on his occurs to me to inquire they think the course of that man dead (pointing to Clay’s likeness) but still living in the hearts of his count would be, should he be now in our midst? Su purs' Fillmore or Mr. Buchanan—is there any doubt he would récommend? I have not a doubt in my own mind that he would stand forth here this morning, and tell you to vote for the man who, haying been weighed in the balance, was found not wanting. ( ase. ) up- other gentleman (pointing to Webster's like- man from Massach . whose heart was broad enough to take in the whole Union—suppose that this man, woo dared to stand up in C aad advocate and vote for the Fugitive Slave bill, and all other constitutional laws, would appear here and give his advice this morning as to what course we should pursue in this canvass, is there a doubt in avy of our minds that Daniel Webster would tell us, as Clay would tell us, to vote for the man who, having been weighed in the balance, was founa not wanting? Is there a neces- sity for any further argument as to what we should do under these circumatances’ Sir, we may fail. It is not always in the power of true patriotism and virtue to command success; but, sir, it is in the’power of patriot- ism and virtue to deserve success in all their undertak- ings. (Appiause.) I say, then, let us be found ever deserv- ing of that success, though we may not secure it. (Cheers.) ‘Some of those autumnal lights shal! dawn upon other illus- trious geniuses, who, like these two great leaders, to whom I have referred, will light our path to victory again. ‘Cheers.) I bave no doubt that there are even now in usetta men who will be influenced and encou- raged by our action here this day, again to sail under that flag of the Union which is now again unfurled. (Cheers.) There are still such men as Choate and Eve- rett, who are ready to take a stand within its broad folds, and aid in maintaining this Union, one and indivisi- ble. Let us, therefore, enter into this contest, by no means dispirited because of the paucity of our numbers. Virtue ana patriotism often effect that which power and influence would fail to accomplish. Our cause is a just and holy one, and to secure it an ascendency it ia only for us to use the proper exertions. For mv part, my best efforts shall always be directed towards the con- summation of thisend. (Cheers.) I thaflk the Conven- tion for their kind and patient attention to the, few re- marks which I have submited. Mr. Joun M. Srrep, of Lynchbu: called for. He came forward and , Was next loudly i—Mr. President and saw by the papers this morning that I had been anpounc- ed to perform upon another , (refer twoacall for a mass meeting in Capitol square, to come off to-night) and as I came bere to do what I could in carrying out the wish¢s of my friends, I had intended to answer that call. Ibad not supposed, however, that another would be made upon me; but, sir, as it has been made, it is my duty to respond to it. It would bave been more agreeable to me to have passed my time here in listening to others rather thao in 7 if, I think that | am in a condition rather tobe a listener than a teacher ; but 1 think there are some few things that { know, ifany body desires to bear them, I am _ here cheerfully to res) to the call, 1 am_ here, sir, ‘as I take it for granted every member of this Convention is here, not for the purpose of seeking his own. —not for the purpose of placing himself in any office— but, if | know myself, and if 1 know those of whom | now speak, for the sole purpose of advancing the interests of country at large, and of preserving the honor of the ‘State; and as a means of doing these things, of securing a permanent ation of the whig party. I believe, sir, that the two former objects can best be promotes, and in the present condition of things will be only pro- moted, by carrying out these purposes. time has been, sir, and the time is now, when those who pro- fessed to be, and are, old line whigs were the subjects of especial censure and abuse. it has been said recently that we are a brave, a gallant and & patriotic party. Ths was very friendly, a generous compliment, in fact, coming as it did from our adversa- ries. On former occasions the true and patriotic who belonged te the whig party, being deemed incapal by reason of their alliance with that party, to render a ser- vice to the country, were invited into the rich pastures of the democratic eld, and there asked to take the posi- tion of lieutenants—major generals, even—so that they might serve their country. Many of them were invited to act as privates; but soon finding they would not fight in that capacity, commissions were svon forwarded to them. These compliments, which were heretofore be- stowed upon thote who bave showed themselves worthy recipients of such favors, are now reserved for the rank and file of the whig party. In their present po- sition it was expected they would do battle in the demo cratic ranks; it was kpowa that the rank and file were composed of men who had some influence, and it was sought to induce them to tile off to the right and lef; and many of them, tempted by thexe rich flelds, no doubt have been induced to take np with oar oldenemies. But, sir, Lam proud to know, notwithstanding the reflections that bave been cast upon this body—i am proud wo velieve and to express it as my conviction—that, though we are pot numerous, and though our numbers may be dimin ished by the causes referred to, yet that there goos forth from this Convention, as far as | know the members of which it is compneed, but one arpiration, and that isto serve the country. (Applause.) Thove gentlemen who have left us are now fn a different position from us. If we battle, we must do battle as privates ip the ranks. It is expected that we will do battic, but it was not exactly known on which side we should be found. | assert, str, what I believe to be true, that we will be found on neither side, We will not battle with the South against the North (cheera); but, , we will take this px planting ourselves upon the principles of the constitution, whereon all who wish may plant themselves, and throw flag under which all parties may serve their coun- and do what they can to promote its prosperity. (Ap- plause.) 1, have said that the object of this Convention was to serse the country, to preserve the honor of the State, and with that view to reorganize the whig party. Onght not this be done? Why # not \t be done? We have bad no orgauization for the last three or four years. We have’ now no candidates in the feld. There are two democratic candidates, and one American candi- date, Fremont I regard as @ democrat, it being we!l known that he represented California in the l'nited States Senate, as a member of that party. We have to choose between those three gentlemen ; and the question thea arises, who are we to choose? We should look to the position of these men, and decide to support him upon whom the beet wishes and best interests of the State and of the country can be most safely repoeed. (Cheers.) Mr. Fremon was caid by the gentleman from Albemarle, (Mr. Alex. Rivers,) yesterday, i# not to be named. He is out of the question. We bave then to choose between Mr. Filmore and Mr. Buchanan. 1 want to know what there is in the history of Mr. Buchanwn, as was asked frequently, te induce any Southern whig to support him’ Is there any one principle that we bold in common?’ What hae there been in his history to induce us t+ disband our forces, to strike our colors, and to say that we will, for all time to come, yield the principles for which we are contending, apd thereby acknowledge that we bave been in error, and fight under the banner of democracy? for that would be the elect if we were tog» im that direction. Letthe whig party pursoe that course, perpetually disbanded. We look to Mr. nd he is said to be sound upon the Southern n' is he im favor of equatter sovereignty? We look to bie letter of aeceptance, and | think mo man can fail to interpret as bs f Of that doctrine. Itis argued that he equatter sovereigniy== im fact, that be does not mean what he says. He is the nominee of the democratic party, and though he says this in his letter of acceptance, yet it is neld to be not the opinion of the democrats, bot merely of James Buchanan, (Laughter and cheers.) 1 might refer to his celebrated Sanford ietter written in 1548, as evidence that he does entertain this doctrine. In that letter a declaration is made by Mr. Buchanan in substance as follows: “It is dle for me to say that 1 am in favor of squatter sove- reignty; i: is idle for any man to say that I hold that opt- nion, because there bas been no legislation to take from Congrets the power it had over it. Congress has exctu- sive sovereign authority and power over that question, end can act with regard to itas it deems most expedient ” Thus it will be seen that he is in favor of this doctrine, eseerting plainly that Congress has exclusive jarisdiction over the subject. But it will +o; Mr. Buchanan does not mean tl dorsed the Cipcinpats platform M: | understand the logic of the = arguments of on the equivocation, If incinmati nominee and a friends upon this subject, it is that the power which resi led once in the Territories and once n Congress, dose not reside in either. (Laughter.) Here j¢ substantive power, unnecessary authority, to be exer- cised by one or the other of two tribunals. One holds that this power resides in one, and another that it resides in the otber—Bachanap one way. holding one doctrine, and bis friends another. When charged with maintaining that the power resides in one. Mr. B. says it resides in the other, and when charged with the opposite dostrine, it is denied in the same way. Speaking candidly, | know not what are Mr. Bochanan’s opinions upon this subject; and Teay further, that if be ts troeto the position upon which he hae piaced himself, we never will know, at least during the canvass: because, a8 Was said most graphically by the gentieman from Bedford, he is now the candidate ¢f the Cineinpati Convention—he \* not James Buchanan, and can answer no questions. (Laughter). We admit, Mr. Bochanan. that in 184% you were not in favor of aqat- ter sovereignty, because the power was in and now that you are the nominee of the OC) Coven tion, you deem it proper to be silent mpon the question, and to answer no interrogatories which may be garding it. This troly is a convenient mode of von of one’s opinions to the peculiar views of ev wee. .

McFartanp, Esq., Chairman of the Committee on Resolutions, submitted the following pre- amble and recolutions, prefacing that duty with a few re marks upon the unanimity id the commit- tee in the, adoption of these resolutioas, and an expres- sion of their opinion that the preservation of the peace of the country and the perpetuity of its institutions would The question was put and Convention took a recess until depend upon the influence which the whig party would exert in the future;— We, who are here assembled, whigs and the representatives of whigs, are painfully convinced of the ‘of consoli- dating the national whig party, and of its woremitied and activity, if the Union is to be perpetuated and the constitu tion aad laws upheld and preserved. ‘There has not been a time when the influence and exertions of the ‘were more need- ed, and wever before has it ap} to hesitate or waver. ‘On all past occasions it has entered the field, eager to bear the heat and burden of the day, on the slightest appeal to its sense of public duty; but now, when the country is convulaed by in- temperate: contentions, and violence and anarchy, vi- tuperation and abuse threaten the subversion of public order, for the tir tiene the party is missed atthe advanced posts it has been accustomed to oecupy und ennoble:, Tt ts the proud distinetion of the whig party to have rendered invaluable, ser. country, as well when out of power asin, by the rukiea aod rentenig party bigotry.

It was the wi one And restored the which composed the rela- tions of the Union, in former instances civil feud, exasperated to fierce rance; nor has the dominant party refused to seize upon whig propositions ag its own, leas, of having denounced them when their adoption would have insured credit to their authors. Generous and pure aims, such as those which have characterized the whig party, have a power over selfish and crooked counsels beyond influence which is found in mere numb ers. ‘The memories of the past, the hopes of the future and the obligations of the present condemn the thought of disbanding tne whig party, aud of any remission of its untiring exertions. ‘The strength of the party isin its principles. and as these de- ‘end not on acceptance for their truth, neither has the party faltered in its exertions through fear of disappointment or de- teat. i sagt has been that it was better to be right than to sneceed. ‘The immediate and practical question now to be determined respects the course or tion of the whig ly in the ad- proaching election. In the decision of this qiestion there should not be, in our judgment, any hesitatioa or diasent. revailing distinctions—the @distinctions pervading the pub- fe ‘minds-disaffeetion amonnting, even to rebellion un- reclaimed after months of insurgent defiance—the denucia tional Legisla tility which cast their appalling shadows before th with unerring certainty the remedy which is required. The services of a vational.chief magistraic—ot one known for moderation, his inflexible 1 impartiality, his equal and imperturbable atiacbment to each and every section, his in- trepidity in adhering to his convictions, Fone o goons fidelity in arriving at them, and his veneration for the constitution as the object which his love and duty both constrain him to de- tend. With such a man at the head of the administration. of whom the world has had witness that such in truth he was, from having once discharged its high duties to the extinguish: ment of sectional jealousies, the restoration of the reign of good feeling, the maintenance of the honor of the government, Snd the advancement of its welfare, confidence, good feeling and fraternal confidence,would succeed to distrust, crimination and intolerance. Resolved, ‘That haying had no agency in the nomination of candidates for the Presidency, and. declining now to make Any nomination of their own, the whigs of Virginia are lett free to select among the candidates already before the public; but in making thelr selection they consul ind their duty, and by no means me: ‘y whose candidate they may adopt, but they will on all occasions maintain and preserve their time: ‘and distintetive principles, as known to the country, and at- tested by thelr history. 2. ‘That regarding the new party, ebsundly styling itself re- publican, ae wholly committed to ‘a sectional issue, and en- ion: more As hie pretensions scrutinived, and unfit to be considered in a national contest. That ‘looking to the pledge ‘publicly given by the resid ere democratic party, in i's nomination of President Piere that" all agitation on the subject of slavery, in Congress and the reiteration of that and elsewhere, should cease.” he President himself, im his inat hag sa and first message to Congress, tohave been ex- pacted that bis ‘Saminist ion would have eve this agitation by giving its countenance and patronage to the agi- lators, and by disturbing, for mere party eads, compromises that had long preserved the peace and harmony of the coun- “"X.

That no whig attached to his principles and jealous of ‘honor of his country can consistently support the candi- date of this party, especially while, in addition to objections on q Terri- torial right, we find him sustained at the North as he advocate of squatter sovereignty; and at the South his doctrine of the absolute power of Congress over slavery in the Territories has to be met by explanations and glosses fis untenable as they are deceptive; and while, too, he is re- sponsible for the doctrines of the Ostend manitesio, repugnant ‘oevery sentiment of national honor and morality, and calceu- lated to commit the country toa career of foreign aggression must reault in depraving public morals. and provoking with other nations. . That the whig party of Virginia, having cordially accept- ed the compromise of [88.8 necessary concessions to con. ficting views and interests, and being opposed 10 the renewal of the agitation of the question to whieh these compromises re: late, will now resist any repeal or modification of the Kansas Nebraska act. is caloulated to renew and inflame the strife thet at thie time endangers the rights and the Union of the ates. 7. That, convinced that in Millard Fillmore the qualities and endowments are combined which in the foregoing preamble and resolutions are held indispensable in a chic: at the present alarming ermis, and believing that those resola- tions express his opinions, and that their principles will control his administration, if elected to the Presidency, the mem bers of this Convention do not hesitate ‘lo recom- mend him to the choice of the nation [and while they dis- claim all intentions to adopt the principles of another party earnestly invoke their brother whigs thronghont the State to suirrender whatever exception they may take to the quarter whence his nomination proceeded, and to yield hum the active and zeajous support to which he is entitled from the model be has given of a truly national administration ‘6. That this Convention, relying on the efforts ofthe whig party of the nation for the preservation of the Union and the const tution, enrvestly invite their brethren in other Siaies 10 unite with them in.a National Convention, in the city of Balt ‘on the third Wednesday of September next, for the pary embodying and rallying agreat national party, Nort South, Bast and W be prepared, now and at all future times, to exert ihat wholesome control over public at fairs, ever duo to moderate and conservative counsels, and to this end, that this Convention will proceed on lls own part to appoint fifteen delegates and two alternates for each, lo repre sent the whign of the State In such convention. 9. That the President of this Convention appoint a contral executive committer of thirteen, whose duty it shall be, correspondence ond otherwise, to promote the organizat and the activity of the whig party in thie State; and that t delegations from the r ive counties be requested to give to the Chairman of the Central Commitiee the names of such persons as they would reeommend for the active duties of the campaign. Mr. Jouy C. Baunwry, of Staunton, expressed himself diseatisfied with the terms of the resolutions referring to the conditions upon which the whigs were to yield their support to Mr. Fillmore. He eaid, being always a whig, and opposed from the beginning to the principles of the Know bey Tet he was anxious that the distinctive character of whig party, as reflected in its original ope should now be preserved, w avoid any taint asy tof the candidate who was the nominee of the Know Nothing party, and to obviate the evils which would, in his opinion, accrue to the whig party by any implied coalition with the so called American party. He was in favor of embody: such an ex of opinion in the reeolutions as w set forth jitions uy which the support of the whigs would be given to Mr. Fillmore, taking care to repudiate the proscriptive doc- trines held by the Know Nothing party. With that view he would offer the follewing resolution :-— Resolved.

Mr. Jowe & Pevprerow, of Orange county, known formerly as the lone star from Virginia in Con- = being the only whig member in that body om this State, arose and said—Sr. President and gentlemen of the Convention: if 1 were to yield to the inclination of my cwn feelings, I woud have re- frained from a public discussion of my own views upon this cecasion. In availing myself of the present opportu nity to express my opinion upon the acceptability of this preamble and those resolutions. 1 yield as much to these repeated and urgent calle which have been made upon me, doubtiess from a kind spirit ii as from any conviction that it is he me to ex- press my bumble opinions upon an It is ® great mistake to suppose that gentlemen are ready to make speeches at all times. It is @ great mistake to suppose that 92 man can even deliver an address t) any Convention w it special preparation—especially a Convention like thie, eminent for its ability, its character, end infinitely more eo than any Convention I have ever geen in Virginia upon any occasion, on the same notice. A facetious editor described us yesterday evening as resembling an Irish wake, sitting up by the dead boay, creey ing into this hall distrustful of our own purpoves, and afraid to speak out our own feelings. It is the voca- on of te im political parties to deprive them of the bene likely to acerue from the general tone and high character of their Conventions. | mean no particu- ar diecredit to that editor, but I refer to the circumstance only to sey that, ia 4 opinion, the whig party is not dead or disbanded, though it sleepeth, but that this con. vention. upon this short notice, signifies distinctly that even if it does sleep, it wakes up at the sound of the war trumpet, like a giant refreshed by his repore—(Cheers) In a word, gentiemen, I did not come here to make a speech, and | have yielded to the considerations which I have indicated in attempting to do so. T shail now pro- ceed to discuss the points in the resolution which has been submitted by the gentleman from Avugusta—Mr. Paldwin—and I desire to address m: for a mement to the diffenlty preeented on yesterday, and reiterated to. day by two of my ancient iriends—not #6 very ancient so far as the younger of the two is concerned, with whom I ‘was associated twenty-five years ago in this party—(he Feforred to Mr. Baldwin)—when only Tore H those services which have illustrated its character an principles since that time. (Cheers.) With regard to this proposition of my ancient and respected friend from Avguata, that we should make a particular declaration of the determination of the whig party of Virginia not to be considered in immediate co-operation with this American party, Ihave only to say that have no more sy’ hy with that party abstractedly, than my talented and distin.

Is there any doubt as to the course we are to pursue? How long have these doubts existed, if they exist at all? Has it entered into the imagination of the whigs of Virguia to hesitate as to giving their votes between Mr. Fillmore and Mr, Buchanan? How loug can it be possible for you, whigs, to hesitate as to vouing for Mr. Filimore against this fugi- tive candidate from the Souta—this Southern man with Northern principles? I speak of Fremont. He is a fugi- tive trom the South—a fugttive from the democratic party. The whigs of Virginia have met here to deter- maine whether they will aid in the election of Mr. Fill- more against the democratic republican candidate and the black republican candidate. They are all republi- cans (laughter), and ail their candidates have always been repuolicans. Fremont is a demo- crat, apd would be in fact anything that could best promote the chances of election.

(Cheers.) Mr. Pendleton proceeded at some length to review the publiccareer ot Mr. Fillmore and Mr. Buchanan, and to compare rather to the disadvantage of the latter, the bhcacts of both. itis drawing near post hour,’ and have not sufficient time to transeribe his speech in full. ‘A long discussion gnsued upon the resolution offered by Mr. Baldwin, Messrs. MeFariand, Scott and Johuson nen its acoption, and Messrs. Bell of Augusta, and Baldwin of the same place, favoring it. A compromise was at length effected, Mr. Baldwin withdrawing the reso- lution upon a general consent to introduce the words within brackets in the seventh resolution. Mr. Woop Baviory, of Charlotte, made some objections to the third resolution, on the ground that i; was rather ambiguous in its language, and needed a clearer expres- sion of opinion, particularly with reference to the compro- mise measures, (0 which the latter part of the resolution He desired a distinct vote taken upon it. . Goggin and Scott advocated the report of the committee, including, of course, this, their resolution, ‘After some discussion the question on its adoption was taken and decided in the affirmative. The preamble and other resolutions were then agreed to. On motion of Mr. Pexpurron it was agreed that the President be added to the list of delegates to the National Convention. Mr. Srexp then offered the following resolution, which was agreed to -— Resolved, That the President of this Convention be instructed to communicate a copy of the foregoing preamble and resol. tions to Mr. Fillmore, to request him to accept of the endorsement by this Convention of bts nomination to the Presi- dency of the United States. On motion of Mr. McFartanp, the President was in- Structed to appoint the committees called for by the avove resolutisn.
