Mr. Or ants O'Common was then introduced. Ho ‘was delighted to wee such s vast assemblage of itis ens convened tn answer to such « respectable call, ‘nd for auch @ noble object, It was an aamurance egainst the frars of those who trembled for the safety of the Union, Speaking of the Union, and what were its prospects, avd what influence would It exe ext on the future of the human family, This Union was, as it wore Time's last offspring, thefmost glori- ous of all. The Union was the work uf an all-wiee, al-powerful, beneficent being, who had permiteed the wor'd to go on and improve, sep by stop, fur ver 5 000 years, until it epprosched maturity, aad then, he permitted the high-minded and noble Genocso to crows the trackless ocean, and discov tho land we now enjoy, Within the lapse of « fow years, @ sot of mon wore reared up in this New World, of great intelligence and capacity to compre hend the true prinoip'es of justice. In "76 a body 0 mon assem bled together in this land, and laid the fcundations cf the first great, truly free empire the world had ever known. Those patriots, after the storm of war hed passed, framed that Constitution on which cur Union now reste, (Applause) And the question befcre usis whether this Constitution consectakd by the blood of the heroes of the Rew- otution—by the mame of Wasurvarom and the sane- tion of our wisest stateumen in every State—whether We shall pronounce it, coacelved in ortme, « chapter of abominations, « violation of justlos, © league be- tween strong-handed and wicked-hearted white man Sctmpovorish and plunder, contrary to honor, jas ice and truth, our fellow crestufes, The Constitu don, as a solemn compact between the Northern an’ Southern Btatss, binds us to the protection of the slave property of the South, and are we % Uberty to violate It—(erles of no ! no !")—to meek te take mean advanteges of it by wresting its lan- gage?

As long as the justice or injustice of Glavery was only a subject for the discussion of Philosophers, It was harmless, while it consisted, together with other such sentimental ia nothing more than producing » socioty like the Shakers who did not believe in matrimony at all, or the Mormons who believed in too much of It, or the strong minded women who thought they could & ame men’s duties better than men’ themsclves— so long tt was found harmless, but now it is found to be far out of the secletion of speculative philoso- phers—it is found in the hoarts of selfish politio'aus, and has become the war cry of parties, the instra- ment to ft into distinction, rank and political ‘The speaker then alluded to Joum Beown's raid fn Virginie, end spoke of his band as “ ‘The South is not to be blamed for seperating from fhe North, should « man #9 objectionable to them ‘@8 the one propcwed be « ected he if Mr, Seman Petition the South to give us another chance and af the noxt election those who supported him should be consignod t> oblivion, (Three cheers given for O'Comnos ) He concluded by an earnest ‘appeal to men of all pa:ties to join in voting for men of trope rion spaticents, lerespoctive of party.

After reviewing the his- tory of slavery agitation, and denouncing Joun Brown's acts st Harper's Ferry, he sald: ‘The free States of the North entered into the fede. ral compact with the slave Btstes of the South, with thelr eyes open. Wo knew thet they held « large Airie> population in domostie wézi!o, Yet we choose to unite with them in forming & Couimon gov. ernment for specified national objects. After con- trecting those federal relations and adopting the Constitution as the charter of perpotual amity, ia it a friendly procteding, iait consistent with horor and good falth, to turn upon them and arraign them in language of condemnation and Insult, on ths qnes- tion of negro slavery, which belongs wholly to them, ‘and over which we havo nelther jurisdiction nor con- trol?

Tt aggravates the evils which it would reme_ Gy, end produces inoreased soverity by exciting feel. Ings of irritation end insecurity among the only peo- ple who have power over the condition of the slave. ‘The constant Giscussion sud agitation of the slave- FY question in the free States has become an intol- erable nuisance, (Applauss.) A portion of the Northern press seems to consider It the only subject of human interest, They will not allow us to lose Wight of it fora day. In literature, in polities, in re- Ngion, they insist that it ts the great moral pivot on whieh everything must turn. Most of the political agitators of the subject admit that they have no power or disposition to interfere with slavery in the Shatea whore it exists, and many of them even repel she Hoa thut they seek in any way to benefit the ool- ored population. But nevertheless they wage an in- teraitiable war of words, proposing nothing for the Denelit-cithor of master or slave, but leaving the in- stitution fa full vigor, as ® perpetual furget for po, Utieal adventurers, Mr. Huet procesiied at much length to expose the evils of thia coascless egitation, and concluded with ‘en carnest sppeal to his fetlow-cltizens to stand by ‘the Union of the States. I would, he said, invoke them alJ, in the North and the South, the Hast and the West, to be faithful to the mighty interests on- ‘rusted to their hands, May th y pultivatethat(proad ‘and generous patrictiam, which embraces the whole country in its sffections, May they ever look with patriotic disdain on the poor parthran arte which, for selfish ends, would undermine the glorious fabric of cur united uetionality, but with clear heads and honest hearts ever resist the ruthless and sacrilegious tflrta to rend asunder these grand communities ‘which the great Architect of nations has so graclous- ly joined together. (Long and cnthuslastic ap plause.) Jaume 8. Torus, E+q , was then called upon, and addressed the meeting. He began by attributing to our national prosperity the want ef concern ex- hibited fn regard to the Union at the North. Aboli- tlonlem had become the basis of great political movements in party organisation and action, and though the anti slavery sentiment was once nothing ‘but a moral convicticn, It ls now a powerful active sgency for poaltive and aggremive action: ‘The pre. tended object for which the Republican party so long fought, ‘no more slave territory," had disappeared, ‘and for this party, existing as { docs on Abolition. iam, nothing remains but opposing slavery where it exists. Tn 1844, out of 490,000 votes In New York Stato’ but 16 000 were pure abolition votes, That small cloud has within fifteen ycars overspread the whole North. The conflict they ence deemed inevitable has now become irrepressible. He concluded by an earnest advocacy of the principle of nom intervention Detween the Btates, Hon.Joun A. Dix, Professor Mrrommt, and Rev. Dr. followed, with bilef speeches, eulagix. ing the Union, and sppealing to the patrictiam ofthe country to maintain it.
