The Chicago Convention. One of tiic most conspicuous tpca kers at the late KiviT and Il.trhnr Convention held at Chicago, was D. P. FU-U of New Yrk CM. He was called-to
,l,e s,,d by U.e Co,,,,,; ; J t..-..,sl. d . assent to every oit i ... n, 111 lull, taken ny l.im, we think his retnirks Worthy T the consideration of our , readers. 2lr. Andrew Stewart of rennsy Kama had' i,kjI j mnL-ai jut prc-ef d'd him in a spi-cch. in which ho hid ken of the po.ver of the general government to make rrads, canals and harbors, and to open rivers, as not euf-jfft to any restriction finder the mnstitution. Mr. Field Ii.nl not eiperietl to be railed upon to speak, except in relerem- tu resolutions, which he believed were In he olreret! ! I lie convention, lie had cum here in good faith, to curry out the legitimate nliject of this iiivix aiiuii. He was ready to 1 o now, but furtlir tli. 111 lint, lu: wa not ready to advance a single utep. lie rould assure tliti'n, if they were prepared to support the I.Miludirioii tiiea-iir just promulgated and iidrornvd by Iii ciiiliMiiaii who bail preceded bim, Iii real question wliicli sliould roiiiinaiid I lie attention of Iii convention would nifrje into mere party issues, and engender part strite. Hit bad liiuielf no doubt tbnt our inland l iken and liver, a well ns our sea board, were included in the same category under the rl.ui in the rrmsiitutinii providing for tliu regulation of ruiiniieree. l!ul there be stopped, mid denied in loto that Iii general "over mi. ent bad ii right to put On IriU'ts into the public: treasury, him) baud nvrr money wherever ami whenever a harbor Is wauled in smut: s' linn of the roiiulry. lie desired to explain what In conn-ived to Im the power of lite mnslitutiou in relation to these :! jM'ts. l'heie are I A o thiuses in the cuii40luliu which be would repeat. lit. Congress shall have power to collect tates, duties, ml Imporl, and to promote the general i ll'.ire, c. I.

He o-.-lievrd the eniiiitii!nnn! puwrr under whieli lliey were to act, wan contained in the first of Iben clauses, under the bead of to promote Iii general welfare, and not, as many seem to think, under thu second. The runKtitution invested certain powers in Congress, to levy taxes, estahli.sb post roads, iVc. For auch legiliiioile pur-poio-4 as thee4 Congress bad power tj raise um y. II tlni West desire appropriations, let them look to Ilm constitution. If it gives them power, then ibey will rod ive appropriations. If it does not j;ive them power, then they oiizlit not, and would not receive them. tiiie Congress unlimited authority lo levy taxes, imposts, Ä.C., and to disburse money when and where it pleases, and you grant them too much He wa opposed to this absolute control. He desired to speak of the second clause be bad repeated. Congress has power to regulate commerce with foreign nations, between the several states, and among Indian tribes. Recollect! the power is given to regulate, not to create. Here is a wide difference. What is tbo meaning of the term to regulate commerce ? Is it lo establish Uws and rules to determine when, w here und by whom it is to b carried on? An farther. If ii granted the power some gentlemen would claim, it would give Congress authority to buy up all the wheat, com, and other grain in the country, and thus, whenever it chose, to control the market. I admit the constitution lies power to pass all laws necessary and proper to carry into effect other laws. Well, what laws are wanted to carry into effect the law to regulate commerce ? You want laws directing that lighthouses shall be built along your (.bores; buoys placed where it is necessary, and obstructions removed. All these nre necessary to regulate commerce, but these laws might not make it constitutional f r the general government to grant appropriations to build harbors where there nre none. lo they ? (Yes, yes, from the crowd. ) If that ground is claimed, lie for one would not go with them. They claimed more than was their right i f due. (ve rumcnt bad no right under the provisions ol this clause n the constitution to create new commerce. It was evident that there was a large majority here of one way of thinking; but be could tell gentlemen there were iiianv people m bo are not here, who also think, and it was well for t lie in tu be cautious and prudent in their proceedings. It was not ribt that our government like the ancient potentates of the old world, should order harbors to be scooped out wherever and whenever they choose; thus making commerce wherever it might suit ils pleasuie. (Mich powers as these belonged exclusively to iSute authority. It did not belong to the government except in the territoiies. A voice from the crowd required Mr. Field's opinion whether government bad a right to improve the Illinois river. Yes, (he Illinois river runs through two States (no, 110 a lanzh.) It is not lo be expected that an entire Mraiigei would know the whole geography of your riiate he would say, if the Illinois river bears mi its bosom only the commerce of Illinois, tlnoi government has no right to meddle with it, for the clause says among the States, not in a State (a voice, "no abstractions ") He asked if be was dealing in abstractions well, their forefathers shed their blood on the fields of the devolution for an abstraction, a preamble, and now the wings of our eagle stretch from the Arctic to the Antarctic, and bade a hemisphere. lie told seutlemen that thev bad now heard Ins senti ments, and he believed that the greater portion of their common i-oiintry were with him in maintaining a strict construction of the constitution and they were imt tobe driven, or clinked, or compelled in any way (rum what thev believed to be the true groend. There was n.urb excitement at th"n time in the convention, and a strong desire evinced to have Mr. Field take bis seat, but that gentleman, with commendable energy and dignity, maintained bis plac. He said llint be bad not appeared upon that stand at his own desire ; he was there in answer to a call of the convention, and he doubted not he would le permitted bis reinirks. lie wished to be understood. Ii wis his opinion that government had just as clear a right to build a break-water in Lake Michigan, as in Delaware Bay, but they bad no rilit lo be continually scooping out new harlmri in nil parts of the country, wherever local feel ing might desne one to be made. (A voice, Has government jurisdiction over Hudson Kiver?) Yei, up to the bead of navigation. ( A voice, can the government clear nut the Ohio ?) Yes, for it runs lhriii:!i a dozen States. Thev bad been told that the valley of the Mississippi was to be the ruler of the republic That if government would not grant, they would soon be nble to demand and tak . The very fact that this mighty valley was to rule the republic, makes it very important that the Wet should guard with strict justice liie common rights of the whole country ; unless it does, what will eventually become ol ibe small lat of New York, and the still Sin iller New Fugl iud States? The world is watching for the solution of the problem we are sol inz on ibis Western continent, whether our free institutions can be sustained or not. No one believes thai our government could last ten years were it aeoneolidated government. It is our free and independent State sovereignties which stand like eternal barriers tn check assumption and repel aggression. They know little of history, who think that a great government utretcliing from the Atlantic to the Pacific, can be governed and controlled by anything but an emperor and his satraps, unless the reserved rights of the Stales are firmly guarded, and the constitutional guarantees constantly maintained. When our forefathers sat down in Philadelphia, under the presidency of the father of bis country, they enacted such laws as they deemed necessary for the preservation of this country, leaving other necessary regulations fur the action of the several states. They have made such regulations, and now let us stand by the constitution. So loiig as ynu cherish good faith towards us of the east, we shall feel safe, not because yuu have not the power to injure us, but because you have not the right. The lime will come when Illinois will be as anxious to guard against infractions uf the constitution, as Massachusetts or Virginia is now. Lay down the rules now by which you will be governed fifty years hence, when Illinois will have become more potent than hall the empires of earth. The time will come when you will not want to vote away the treasure of your stale, to states which are yet to add stars to our banner, far towards Hudsou's Bay or the southern isthmus. Keep government within its strictest limits, and all will be well with the republic At the close of Mr. FielJ' remarks, the Convention adjourned until 3 o'clock, I'. M. At the opening of the Convention in the afternoon. Mr. Marsh, ol I.linois, nlTered the following resolution : Thai the Delegates of this Convention ar pained at the expression ol ill feeling evinced this mornirij, while 1). 0; Field, Esq., occupied the stand by invitation if the Contention, and pledge themselves hcncelorih to respect the rights of all, so long as they conform to the established rules of the Convention. He offered this resolution as an lllinoisan,and he trusted that all of the Illinois delegation, the most numerous her, would support it. Mr.-Wentworlli ofiereil an amendment. Mr. Field asked if any allusion was made to him in th amendment. ' Not any, sir. Mr Field would then prefer thst Mr. Wentworlli should emlwidy bis amendment in a separate motion. The original resolution ol Mr. Marsh was then adopted. Abram Lincoln was railed for and took the stand. After sneaking a short time, h g v way for tho cominillee on resolutions to report to th Convention. J.ihn C.

The President remarked that be would not take thu question upon the adoption of the resolutions until niter soiii remaiks from the Hon. J din C. Spencer, of New York, 111 their support and elucidation. We make the folloivitij extract from T.Ir. Spencer's remarks, as illustrative of tiie reasons presented by him in support of the resolutions : The great question upon which we are consulting, and lor which we have met is, to what objects ami purposes, ami tor what kind of improvement, can the general government Ieml its co-operation and aid. It is upon lb. question that we are divided, and from want of a nice discrimination between what should be asked, and what should be given, some of us h ive couliiunded terms and words, and it is upon these we are at issue, mure than upon things, Your committee have endeavored to place us all upon common grounds, mi which our united and unanimous voices cm go f-rth over the land, through its w hole extent, ami with unimpaired influence. There is not in these resolutions one solitary word in opposition to ihe provisions of the Coiistitiüimi, and your committee claim, at leat, that they have not gone beyond that instrument. Another position presented by jour committee is, that the (jovernmeiit of the Cnited States has itself claimed jurisdiction ccr your lakes: that it has power under the Constitution to build light-houses and prepare harbors for shelter. It extends its jurisdiction over the lakes for purposes of revenue. Tins, it was tiue, did not come under the clause tn regulate commerce, but thev require all your vessels, steamhoms, SLc,tu be periodically examined. It cannot he shown from whence this power comes, if it be not under the provisions to regulate commerce. (Invernment havin taken this power justly and properly taken it shall it now stop short, and say it has no jurisdiction in the matter: umler those circumstances cun it deny that it exercises its power as exigencies direct, and prudence requires. Government also chums itithnrity on these lakes in the construction of navies, mid harbors, in the event of a war between us and (Ireat I'ntniu. It is not clear that Ihe general government has power un der the clause of the constitution for the resulatioii of commerce, and was not his, (.Mr. Spencer's) assertion at the commencement of his remarks, that they were con founded upon terms and words, rather than dibenug about, true ? Was there one in this vast assemblage who ever heard the constitutional power of government questioned lor establishing light-nouses, along the lakes.' There was not one, vet be defied anv one lo put bis (infer upon tiny authority under which they possessed this power, except under this very clause for Ihe regulation ol commerce. We say to government, you have taken one step, yes, a dozen steps, and you have no right to arrest your progress. Mr. Ciardiner. of Troy, New York, was then called lor. 11 spoke of the resolutions as precursors lo other lesolutioes, when Congress should be supplicated to es tablish 11 rail road Irom Chicago to the shores of tue 1 acifie.

Tlie divestiture deprives him of nothing which he can claim is a rtgt, when public good requires its sur rentier, and therefore indicts no injury. The proper course then, is to make haste slowly in reform, as tlie mode most exeditious in the end. The reformer is bound to consider consequences, and therefore has no right to "leave them to themselves. He has no right to shoot a mad dog with a cannon loaded with grape and caimister t-hot, in a populous thoroughfare, because the dog is a nuisance, and the least toleration of it is a sin. TIpj mad dog should be killed to prevent him from biting, but not by means that will kill a dozen men. Uur remedy for intemperance would be, first, instruction to the public upon the physical character of the disease; secondly, prohibition of rum selling in modes designed for and direclly producing intemperance among those who suffer most by it, the poor. We would confine all drinking to the dwelling of the drinker. He should not drink out of doors; away from borne, at any public bouse. Therefore we would close every grog shop, and permit no public bar in any tavern. We would leave the wholesale dealer to his frade, taxing bim heavily for a license. We would leave the importer and distiller to their Irades, taxing them with heavy duties and excises. We would make all d.Ptilled spirits dear, and all light wines cheap, und deprive every person of all facilities fjr drinking, excepting al h'n own domicil, or at that of his friends, 'fliese laws would sweep away nine tenths of the present facilities for intemperance ; and in a few years, or the ne.xt generation, public opinion abroad and domestic inilueiice at home would do nearly all ihe rest. In a few generations, the propensity would be conquered. Pa. Ledger. The New York "Courier and Enquirer" hr.s this argument in behalf of Gen. Taylor: "He is a slaveholder ; and consequently his elec tion wnuhl prostrate jn the dust the theasonaele movements of the A!k1 tionists."

th it without a f.ireipu 'demand llour could not have ruled higher than slor.j;l GO ikt barrel, lint in stead of that, it went up to s'J cud over. What caused it! The demand from abroad. And what has now caused a decline of mere than jjy) p-r barrel! The prospect of j'ad crops un the otoer side. The despised foreign market, then, is the regulator of our own. It drive our Hour up to or b-is it drop to half that rate. Even now, the fireiti market keeps the home price !sl or Äl 50 bisher than it otherwise wi'tild be. Yv'e h:;ve tievrr con'enil'Nl, or protended, that tin late cxtravBjfiut prices of bread-lull's were exclu-. sively the result .f the new tarilf. If we have, "fifty times," as the Providence paper implies", it can doubtless quote a single instance. Wo have said, and repeat it now, that "Providence iiaviny withheld its blessings from the people of Europe, free trade (not the tariif of ll(j a'.oiK-) allows us to reap the advantages of the calamity; and allows thctn to buy food of us, and so to mitigate the calamity.". All the benefit we have derived from the scarcity of breadsl tills in Europe, ard all the benefit which Europe has derived from us for the mitigation of the calamity, i the result of free trade, more or less complete. 1 lad the same rate of duties ad valorem been charged upon breadstutfs in Europe, as was charged ujo;i various articles of Earopeatt manufacture by tlif tarilf of (fr the respiration of which we snp.iose the Providence Journal is daily and nightly sigli ng.) not a barrel nor a buliel of breadstuff could have been sent thither from the American orls. unless our own prices had been reduced one-half", or unless the prices in Europe had been doubled. Let this be contradicted if it can be. Of course, upon articles or export from thi country, our mvu tantf noon ii.r orls can only have n n indirect elftt; though this indirect ell'.-et may be large. When the tarilf men deprecated a reduction of duties on the ground that it would inundate the country Willi foreign goods, they asserted the only fact which is necessary to prove this indirect elii ct ; fur it is u law uf trade, established by the experience of ages, that facility of payment increases the price ol the article purchased. If we sell only fot epeciej our sales must be small, and our prices low. If we buy little, we can expect to uell but little. Very high duties check, if they do not prevent, importations ; and for the fame reason they diminish exports, both in quality and price. They do it, likewise, or are liable io do it, by reciprocal legislative action. High duties beget high duties in return. In tlie approach towards free trade, England generously led the way, and breadstulf were among the nrticles particularly favored.

' ed a picture which will net soon be forgotten ny those who witnessed lt. i lie hairof one prisoner, although his face denoted that he had not yet readied middle life, was perfectly wl ite. Another prisoner, a Frenchman, was one of the most noble specimens of humanity I have ever seen. lie bad been incarcerated several years, charged with aiding in some robbery on the road, but had never been brought to trial." And yet a nation that suffers such tilings in its very heart, that mocks nt justice, and tramples upon the dearest rights of the citizen, that restores in the nineteenth century the worst relies of barbarism, such a nation, when engaged in a war with our country, that it has wantonly provokrd, is not only deemed worthy the sympathies of American citizens, but her cause is espoused, and her conduct defended by men who lay claim to the title of patriots. ' How far they deserve the appellation is very easily determined. "The London Times asks, 'Why should Great Britain hesitate to change her navigation laws, and to make advantageous reciprocity treaties similar to those of America 1 Is it not humiliating to British pride to hear it acknowledged in Parliament by her leadinrr statesmen that the United States, not a century old, have the first commercial navy in the world ! Why is it sol llerause the United States are always vide aicak - to their interests." That is a pretty severe reflection on the High Taritf, Henry Clay whigs, who bo long and so madly opposed the extension of our commerce. It was "home league,' "lume industry," home every thing, just as though home prosperity was not mainly supported by foreign commerce and the extension of our trade with other nations. ().

The people could not suppress their admiration, but every few noments burst forth in ttikcns of admiring npprobation. It will not do hereafter to teil a in body who was lcn that Junes K.

General Taylor. We publish to-day another letter from Geneiw' Taylor, which we take from a Whig paper, the Trny W.

I J lie lilchtnotld limes, which was one of the Iirst to: recommend General Taylor as a candidate for the oflice of President, now whistles hi:it down the wind in tin fi'.hiwing manner: "The letter of Oenetal Taylor to the cJilor of the Cin cinnati serial, wbicli wc published ycsieid iy, seems I t he J iiitriKled by the wuter as a mote foimal decuiation than ; anv tint lias yet appeared of bis views in rcgnd t the IVsiihncy. lie slates, without equivocation, that t wo res? can h permit hii.vtdf to le ihe candidate of any party. If (iciieial l al ir adheres to this lesolutn-n, we are cuiisti anted to express an epia on that the Whi patty cannot be expected to suriender their o..uiijt.tion ai.d iheir pnuciplrs for the purpose uf clevaiin bim to the PieiJency. They have rcndcied bim the homage of enthusiastic adiiitiatiou, iiol meirly for bis distinguished services as a soldier, but fur his n.iblt moueiatioii, tin conspicuous g Mid sene, and his calm dignity in rcrciviH' the slights of an alienated administration.

Hut if Gi-i.eral Taylor delibeiately choo-es to decline that hntioiable teliin.u:iil uf their giatituJe, because thej' would offei it at ll'h'gs, we caniu t pciceive that they have any tesouicc but to aictn, any him to the n tiiemeiit he covets, atlhec!oeof the war.wi h 1 tit-i r profoumlest icgrel and jnabjted airetti ni.

Wh-tt Will those papcis say lo this, which advocate his claims to be the Whig candidate " ubj 'Ct to the dt cision of the Whig National Cuuveu tiou ?" (ieiieral Taylor says be will not peimit himself io be a candidate for the nomination at at:y paity convention, and we ae to undeistand by the lei m " paity schemes," thai he will not yield himself to any pirty measuics. Wh it cl um, Hint, has Geneial Talor to the votes uf Wbis, as VVhis ? No man can h vc the vot s uf the whis fr 1'icsident uf the Uni ed States, unless he be a fnm, unflinching advocate of their piinciples. The whole inteiest and :mpoitance of the next Trcsideotial election glows out of ibe pieseut state of alLoi in tins country." A Louisville Whig print pretends that a letter has been written to somebody in Kentucky, in which General Taylor declares distinctly that he is a Whig. The Washington Union denies tlie truth of this, and asks fr the publication of that letter. The public, we think, wili be satisfied with nothing short of the production of the leler itself. Among the most eager champions of Gen. Taylor's nomination wc find a set of men who are not in good odour with either parly men who have shuffled and maniEuvered avvny, in a course of political double dealing, what little confidence tlie public might once have iiaccd iti them. , The other day Mr. N. I Talinadge made a speech, somewhere in the western country, in which he eulogized the old warrior and predicted his election by such a vote as few candidates ever received. It is not tho fault of General Taylor if such men, fallen into contempt with the opposite political associations to whi .-ii they once belonged, and no. longer in a situation to hojh any thing from them, now turn to him, in the hope that, if he should bo elected, they may be remembered in the distribuli.Mi of offices. It is not his fault, but it is'certainly a misfortune. Nobody can be excluded from a party to which he persists in attaching himself, but such turn as these debase the character of any party into which they force themselves. X. Y. Post. Foreisi Ilczzi.

KoMNsuER'i, (Prussia,) June 10. The police has just notiiied the Israelites of this city that they will not be allowed to carry out the decision they had formed lo transfer the celebration of their Sabbath from Saturday to Sunday. This prohibition is founded on a ministerial rescript which expressly foTbids any alteration jn the forms of Jewish worship. The Jewish community of Königsberg have resolved to appeal to the government againft the restriction which it is proposed to impose on them. In support of their claim they allegs that at Berlin tle exercise of the Israelitish reform-id worship diiTor9 essentially from the primitive forms of worship. The Jewish Sabbath. The Journal dea Debats publishes a letter dated Kuningsbtirg, May ltiih, which states that seven hundred Jews of that city had agreed to transfer the celebration of their Sabbath from Saturday to Sunday. This measure is regarded as a remarkable proof of the tendency felt by the Jews to assimilate tliemselves to the Christians iu religious practices.

Herefeis to the whole Western country to bear him testimony to the assertion that, in no case whatever will i; tail to cure it tie directions are strictly followed and carried out, and with this assurance he is fully pi-epire I to watrant a cure iu all forms v hitever of A?ue and tevi-r or Chills and t ever, whether of sliort or 0:1 standing ; nml a I persons s lliiii it are hereby authorized to return the money to persons w ho may have used it us directed, when it shall have lüit ly tailed to cure. In a g-cat many cases a single dose h is been buthcient for a cure, and iu several instances a u hole family have bet 11 cure t by k single Ixiltle with a perfect resttira.iuii of the peneral health. It is prudent in every case, and more c-pccia'ly in those ol loi. standiat, to coutiuue the use of this medicine lor several days aller tt.e disease is clucked. Most usually this nic.iicine wi I reijuire no aid to keep the low els in roo.l or.ler ; should the patient, however, require a caihartic medioine uf er h.iviiij taken three or lour doses of the Tonic, a sin pie dose of Lee's or l ook's Pills, or any ol the ordinary cathartics, will be suthcient. This remedy has now been extensively used throughout the West and Southwest tor the last seven years, and within that period has perm lnen'ly cured over "JOO.OlHl cases, iu all i'.s varied forms, many of which had been of from one tu thiee years standing, and had resisted all the usual remedies known in this country, and in no case did this mi-.:ici:ic fill w here the (UierUorM were followed pro-p;-rl. Such is iu invariable success that a I i-e number of ,espeetable practitioners of medicine, in va-ious parts of the country, u.e and prescribe it in prelerence lo tuinine and all otNer rene-dias. The put) ic are assured that it i not only certain 11 it eihvts as a Tonic, but Wiiiir composed entirely of vegetable nn-Jit'iiies, is pel f.-c-tly innocent in any cases or cir.-urrst luces, and may be givcu to females, intuits, and all persons of debilitated aitl ih lieate constitutions w ithout the least fear whatever of any unpleasant eil ct. This medicine is composed ol" articles of the printest and purest quality, nnd is always made by the proprietor in peisoti, afu-r the esta dished form of pharmacy, (which cannot lie said ol the many Tonics now lloo lii-g the Western and Southwestern country,) mid in this resjiec.t a'oue is rendered greatly superior to the.remedks usua ly prepared and Sold in the country. By i.s ae ient and (lOwerful diaphoretic properties, added to its tonic tiiiali ies, it is rendered eminently su ierior to (tuuiine and other remedies, as a ieneriil and popular Tonic in all cases whatever, where Tonics are proper to I: administeted. The proptie:or, therefore, would respectfully invite practitioners and the public generally , to i;ive it but a lair trial, and they will then tie convinced of its preat superiority over ail other remedies now in use for the ptltposi-s specified. Persons livinj in districts of country subject to Ag;ue and Fever, Chills a-id Fever, or Bilious Fever, would do Well to keep a supply of this valuable remedy always on hand, especially if medical qiA mnnor he rnnvenirntl v Lad. The proprietor has now iu his possession hundreds of certificates of its value, given by persons who have used it, with mi.ny letters from merchants who have sold it largely in their country," as well as from many respectab e practitioners, "who have used it in preference toother remedies, attesting its value.
