The Democrau have labored hard to identily the higs with the Xative American party, and also with the Abolitionist although nothing could be further from the truth. He was, hy birth right, a foodenough Native, being Keutvckv born and Hoosher bred; but he had no "fellow-ship or affinity with the father under that name in the EabternViiies, and he knew no Indianan who had. If the cries in the East are too much crowded to justify kindness and hospitality towards the unfortunate xtle of other lands, such was not the case or feelings of the people, in the Great est. He did not care where a man was born, if he was a good citizen, and faithful and tine to the Constitution and laws of his adopted country; it was all he ask-d
or an any literal citizen could desire Such men he hatled as brothers and fe'-low-nt.zensjand wishtdtosee no curtailment of their franchises or privileges He would be gle d, in order to silence such charges, to see a reduction adopted in accordance with these yiews, which he knew to be those of an overwhelming majority of the whtgs of Hancock county.

It did not propose to maintain our rights to that territory by braggadocio or bluster, bat when peaceful negotiation failed, by ih union of all whigs and e'emocrats in the defence of so much of Oregon as we jmay have established our title to, whether that shall be found to comprise the whole or a part. We are now told by professional patriots, that it is no longer a question about territory, but one of honor, and that we can't recede or compromise a mile of the land in dispute up to 54 deg. 40

TRESlOENT. ZACHARIAH TAXXEHILL, of Bartholomew. Vice Presidents. Joel Vandevcer, John Flcener, John L. Robinson, James Osborn. James P, Drake, John Labertieu, Austin W. Puett, John Xelson. Alexander M'DonalJ, William Rockhill, Secretary's. D. K. Ickels, F. Covington,
John U- Pettit, George W. Lane, The list of counties were than called over alphabetical.y, and the na.nos of Delegates where given in. A resolution was adopted inviting all Democrats in attendebce to participate in tbe deliberations of tbe convention. On motion of Hon. Samuel P. Mnoney. j ukPOn county resolution was adonV . '.by unanimou8 'acclamation, declaring
,u n HTf :OMB, to be the choice of the Democratic party, as a candidate for Governor, at tbe next August election. This resolution was enthusiastically received, and Governor Whitcomb was called to the stand, w here he delivered a most eloquent and happy response, accepting the nominaiio.i. The several counties then prepared to nominate a Lieutenant Governor, each county giving a vote equal to its representation m the General Assembly. After a considerable time spent La balloting, in committee, the committea return
ed to the convention tbe name of PARIS
C. DUNNING, of Monroe, as the person selected for such office, which nomination was unanimously concurred in by tbe con. vention. Mr Dunning bavin been called.
appeared at tbe 6tand, and in a very appropriate and brief speech, accepted the nom
ination, and returned his thanks to tbe- conventio n.
Several gentlemen were voted for in con
vention, among whom were Messrs. Lane. McCoy, Read and ,'others, and on the final
voteit6tood for Dunning 72, 10rJ.Il. Lane 67, and a few scattering votes.
The convention proceeded to appoint
committees to prepare an address and re
solutions, expressive of the sense and sentiments or the convention, which resolutions were reported bv Mr. Akin, and adopted. Tbe addresson National adairs was reported by Mr. Hathaway of Laporte, and adopted by the convention. That portion of the address on State af
fairs was read by A. F- Morrison, and al
so adopted.
Sundry other resolutions on various sub
jects were .adopted, and many most elo
quent and argumentive speeches were delivered by gentlemen from all portions of
the State.
Tbe highest spirit of confidence in tbe -
success of the ticket was predicted, and a -
most enthusiastic spirit!pcraded the whole
assemblage. Men freely differed in opin
ion on various topics whicb were under consideration, but the whole body of the convention united as one man as to the
great object and aim of its hbors tbe success of the contest and the fiim adherence to Democratic principles, Every minor consideration gave way to the most pat--riotic devotion to tbe cause.
And at the la'.e hour of twelve, the convention adiourncd sine' die.
