That is the record of the party ui IS40, when mvself and our friend stood together; and in evert, natiooai convention which haa assembled from that utne down to this, that revolution has been reindorsed and reinacted by the Democratic party of this country. Now let me read the resolution "f the Whig convention of 1S56. in the last g.eat struggle m de by that pirtr to hold n to power: "Resolred. That the Whigs of tho United States dsxdare. as a fundamental article of polit ical faith, wi absolute necessity for avoiding geo graphical parties The danger so pearly discerned by the lather of his country, baa now become fearfudy pprent in Uie agitation now con vulsine the nation, and must be am-ated at once if we would preserve our Constitution and our j lTnion from dismemberment, and t'de name of America from being blotted out from the family of civilized dations.

He omitted that part whieh says "the Abolition minority which rules." I believe ' it is entailing upon the countrr utimii"d evil, and would be false to my country if I did not say so. Then I quoted tho resolutions of Jan , l?bJ, ! adopted by the Democracy of Indian I w , ! on the committee on icsolutions that presented j them, aud lam not bere to shirk tbe resoonsij bility that belongs to a: v of ray political acts ' 1 he resolution read reads: That we will ataiü, with ail out energie , a war for the raaintainance of the Constitution and ! of the integrity of the Union under the Conatitution.but we ate opposed to a war ior the emir. cipation of the negroes or rh 'uniugation of tbe eouthern States.

And I will not believe that he undertook irueiitionally to earble wben he ! quoted it. but it was unfortunate that he did so ; f I and 1 wish to call bis attention to it that he may makaa full and complete correcwou. He says in an address by Mr McF3ona!d.

"To all whom it may concern," will divide the people of live North, because you I will not fubac: I e to k; and it will weld to tret I er the people ot the South. He says "To all whom it may concern." Why it concern everybody every man that haa tiea of earth, every man that has a brother, a father or a friend any one that can mourn ; and if you can find any mau that c anlast mourn regard bim as blighted by Heaven nut here is what Mr. Lincoln satt: "Anv proposition which embraces the reatora tion of peace, integrity of the whole Union and the abandonment of sla en . and which cornea by and with au authority ;hal can coutrol the armusuow a: war against the United States, will be received and considered by ihe executive government of the United State, and will be met with liberal terms on other subetanftal colla'eral poinla, and the beirer or bearers thereof shall have safe conduct both ways." The propositions for peace, and the ftitegrity of the whole Union, that far I go with him but the abandonment of slavery," what is thai? S.mply that fto is to overcome the people of the South and their institutions, and compel them to give up the rights and sovereigntiew of the State upon a question of that kind Yet ia his inao trural address, made when he went into the Presidential chair, on the day of hia inaaiguraLion, be said be bad no power nor purpose to interfere with any of the southern Stales My time is about closed, and I will give way after s tying to my friends to remain, every one, and give to my competitor a calm aod deliberative bearing; aud let it le said that once more in Iudiana that di-' cau take place, and reason can control.
