The President interposed that he knew be would not. Mr- Davis, (continuing.) Within the limits of the Stales they would touch nothing and spoke not for himself alone, but his honored chief himself. (Applause.) But. when they look to their recent possessions in the slope of the Pacific, there were two things which arrested attention. Upon the pages of history nothing was marked more steadily than that, running back to the remotest antiquity, mountains divided nations and as the light or shadow fell upon &e one side or the other, so would the character men be modified and the government changed. But had it not been in the progress of mind in its conflict with the matter, that the United States, had advanced, had gained additional force, and had they not reached the period when they could triumph over this natural obstacle, when they could skip the mountains, tunnel them, or pass them by auy means known to civil engineering. binding men together so that ihe fluctuation of life should become to them as nothing? (Great applause.)

He had ssid that he was a strict constructionist but he had also mocked the idea that the constitution had one construction within the limits of the United Stales-' and another outside of them. (Applause.) He had always mocked the idea that this government could bcild a road outside of the United Slates, and could not build one within it. (Great applause.)

There was another question which involved the question of the integrity of the Pacific possession*: another a closer question to which he knew the hoart of Pennsylvania would respond. It was the question of protection whi^i fn her strength she had always shown herself willing to throw over the weak. If the Pacific possessions should be threatened by a hostile fleet, the Government would have no navy there to interpose for their protection, and if that hostile fleet belonged to such a Power as England or France, it would take all the navy of the United Stales lo keep a road open which would cross either of ihe Isthmuses of this continent. And while the navy of the United Slates were thus employed, what would be more easy than for such maritime Power as either of these to strike at those possession*, and rend them from these States, even lo the extent of the gold regions which lay behind the coast? If. then, as a purely military question, it should become necessary to have an intercommunication, so (hat the Government's munitions of war and men could be thrown upon the Pacific for its defence, the application of the war power of the Government lo this case would be within the strict limits of' the Constitution. (Enthusiastic applause.) But if il could be shown, (and he always held his opinion open to conviction from any quarter,) that these means were not required, not necessary—and by neoes*ary he meant absolutely required—then he would say show the other means that would answer as a substitute, and a strict-oonstruction Democrat, he would accept the proposition.— (Applause.)

After the President had concluded May. lor Gilpin gave toast, "The health of the present Cabinet which was received with three hearty cheers*

The Hon. Jefferson Davis spoke in reply. He said that on the part of those members of the cabinet present, he rose to return their sincere thanks for the compliment tendered them. They stood in ti»e attitude of those who enjoy the advantage of reflected light, yet they thought that they were entitled to the consideration of those present. because they were members of tho Cab* Inet.

Under evefy tftgetftDftf tisnflrudtfon which had been placed upon the various powers of the Government, under every ramification, which ingenuity had suggested to supply that deficiency of intercommunication, in vain had it been attempted to be shown him how the military power of this Government, which consisted in the sinews and strong hearts of its citizens, and could be used on the slope of ihe Pacific, unless there was railroad to transmit it. (Applause.) if then, it could be done, and if that hagard exiited on that ooean, he would say that ihe rest followed as a consequence: the smokeof Pennsylvania coal might be seen on the desert waste, beneath the cloud cap* ped mountains, and Pennsylvania iron, with the very stamp of her own foundaries upon it, might be seen creeping in a long serpentine track to the slopes of the Pacific.— [Applause

It was not alone in her connection with these groat works that Pennsylvania's min era) resources were to be united. She is the great agricultural State of the Union.— Hor manufactures, with their concentrated power wielding political influence, have atattracted attention greater than that which belonged to her agricultural interest yet her agricultural was many times more important than her mineral interest. Nay more she had. commercial interest which exceeded both her mineral and manufacturing interests.— And there was something which seemed to him ought to be peculiarly proud to the heart of Pennsylvania, when she look back to the land from whence her people sprung, and saw upon her own broad bosom those orops which could feed them in the year of famine, and she might ftot only welcome ihem with open portals to a land of refuge, but of support. (Applause.)

He felt that the occasion was notone to wander into those broad themes of discussion. He had trespassed too much already. [Cries of go* oo, go on!]

Mr. Davis (again rising) said he rose merely to call out bis venerable friend, so long the representative of Pennsylvania, and whose name came unbidden when her name was mentioned. [Immense applause.]

He then proposed the health of the Hon. James Buchanan, which was drank with cheers.

Mr. Buchanan rose and responded. He did Oct intend to make a speech, but, after he bad been called out in such a way hv his honorable friend from Mississippi, it would he discourteous to bam and to the Mayor not to say something. He admitted that Cel. Davis was a strict constructionist, tie had never known but one man wh*t could excel his firiettd from Mississippi in that, and that waa a (Head of his from old Virginia. In •idea time*. This gentiemaa was takes elarmmgtv i, awl was at the point ol deatb. and all that troubled his conscience was lest he migfet be baried Am Congressional burying* ground at ihi public expense. He sent for a friend, and, in praspectof atecnity. said: would nearly as fieve take my fikmm of being d—d as to entertain the idea that Congress, without authority from

the Constitution, should appropriate money to bury me." [Great laughter.] That gentleman was more of a strict: constructionist than his Mr. B.*s) friend Davis* for the latter had got so fur as to be willing to appropriate the public money to make a Railroad to the Pacific, with which he himself entirely agreed., In reference to what had brae said of Pennsylvania, he would say that he felt on this occasion like Rob Roy McGregor, "on his native heath.*' He was proud of Pennsylvania. He was born and nurtured in it, snd he might be ss disconsolable as the friend from Virginia to whom be referred, if he supposed it would be his fate lo die out of it. Pennsylvania had always been true to the Union. When clouds low ered over the horizon in all quarters of the country when the bravest hearts quailed at the impending prospect, where did Pennsylvania stand I Where did Philadelphia stsnd 1

The great meeting then held in Philadelphia. without dtMinctinn of party, cotributed greatly to roll back the black tide of fanaticism and disunion. Then Whigs and Democrats in Pennsylvania were found, as he trusted they would always be found, standing in defence of the rights and liberties of the Union. [Great applause.] He was therefore proud to accept the compliments paid to Pennsylvania by his friend from Mississippi. He knew that that gentleman was friendly to the State of Pennsylvania, or at least one individual in the Statie.— (Great applause.) After some further remarks the honorable gentleman resumed his seat amidst prolonged cheering.

The health of Mr. Guthrie. Secretary of the Treasury, was proposed by John Cadwallader, Esq., and was received with great applause.

Mr. Guthrie, repliet^^He was pleased to be able to say that his own health was good' and that the public Treasury over which he had the honor to preside was in an equally jound and wholesome condition. Its resources were fully adequate to meet all the usual necessities of ihe Government, and leave a surplus large enough for any extraordinary exigency. He thought it wise not to permit the accumulation of too much superfious treasure: and as a means of preventing so dangerous a condition, expressed the opinion that an exoess of the Federal finances would be most judiciously applied to.the construction of a railroad to the Pacific. He proceeded in this strain of remark, and concluded amid vociferous cheering.

General Patterson. J. P. Wetherill, Morton MoMichaei, J. W. Forney, Gen. Cadwailader, and several other gentlemen spoke in reply to sentiments calling for response from them, but their remarks were not reported/8 tsrya !M iKZiX&cttil

MS _j jfv ,:0 Hanging Abolished in Wisconsin,' "The worst use you can put a man to,' says Bulwer, "is to hang him." This opinion is getting prevalent now-a-days, and although opposed by a host of well-meaning old fogies, anti-hanging will eventually be the law of the land.

The Wisconsinites, we notice, have just concluded to dispense with the gallows.— A bill to that effect which had previously passed the House, has been adopted by the Senate in a vote of 14 to 9.

It is all nonsense theorising upon this matter. It is very easy to show on paper that judicial neck breaking is indispen»ible, to the existence of society. It furnishes a terrible example to the wicked, say its atlvo oates. The stkme argument would of course, justify public executions. Experience has proved them to be horribly pernicious, and they have been abolished by law in nil but two or three of the Stales.— Hanging, in private will share the general disapprobation when it is once fully understood that fewer capital offences are committed where imprisonment for life is the penally, (hail where the culprit is scragged and sent to the surgeons. "The proof of Ihe pudding," Vise saw, "is in the eating and we submit the following for the consumption of those who don't believe with us. It is from the Free Pre** of Detroit, Michigan, in which Stale banging was done away with more than two years ago. **But thns far the change has worked well We have had comparatively less murders than many of the surrounding States, and we beleive that no considerable portion of our people are in favor of the restoration of the death penalty."—Plain Dealer

He meets the eye of honest toil with th» leer of oonietnpl for that shows true dignity of breeding. He puts on a supercilious grin, when in the presence of those he thinks his inferiors in knowledge for lo be unassuming, is to be ignoble. He does not give the salutation of common civility, when he meets his poor rcquaintance in the public streets because that would tarniah his dignity. He sends the poor laborer home, without his hard earned wages, because it would be unprofessional io pay him. away from his office, and and after business hours. He flares up like a setting hen. and is ready to take 'colfee and pistols for two' at the slightest mark of the waot of deference to bis dignity.— Should any one say to him "At every trifle scorn to take offence.

It either shows groat pride, or little sense he will tell vou -that so-called great bard was an old fool."

Would you know from whence he came, his history will tell you that he came from poverty and low life or at least a condition

which the true dignity of

taught him in boyhood. The promoted slave is always a tyrant. The abused servantgirl, when raised to opulence is cruel to her maids, and hard-heal-ed to the poor. They alone are punctilious in reminding othersoftheir merits, who hold them by a doubtful tenure, and who are conscious, they are assuming to be what ihey once were not.

TkelenaoB^at salt Lake.—Tke Ulndea* Kites* .•••.' -t I A correspondent *f the New York Times is giving graphic pictures of Mormon ism and Mormon dissension. In a recent letter, be gives the substance ot the speech of Eider Snow upon the heretics in the Mormon faitb who are located at the Salt Lake, lor it appears that the unbelievers are bolt] in the avowal of their unbelief and numerous enough to sustain themselves. He s«ys "Snow took op the Gladdenites, and bop. ed the Lord would curse and destroy them. He plainly told the audience, that whoever should be ihe* executioners of divine justice in this case, and slay he Gladdenitea, their wives aud ohildren, from the face of the earth, would-receive a brigh? crown hf ^lory. The injunction to assassinate the Gladden* ites was open and undisguised, and repeated in a variety of forms and, what is more to be lamented, was plainly responded to by Ihe audience. It was a sphere of murder— plain, palpable, frightful and sickening. T.'ie picture was one^whtCh. when onee seen, can never be effaced from the mind. A preacher. in the pulpit ferociously enjoining the murder of men, women and children, for a difference of opinion, and two thousand faces Intently gazing upon him with fantioal approbation—the regions of ihe damned could scarcely present a scene more truly diabolioal. A Gentile emigrant present stood it as long as he could, but fin ally left the Tabernacle with compressed lips and evidently under an uncontrollable paroxysm of indignant excitement. And this is Mormonisni! These are the people who are eternally talking of Gentile persecution? Yes. they have been persecuted as debauches and felons usually are. but never on account oftheir religion. They have ever been a bubbling and seething cauldron of pollution, and oan no more be tolerated in llie bosom of civilized society than gangs of counterfeiters and thieves. You may ask if all Mormons are to come under this savere condemnation. I do not mean to be so understood.—There are a great many Weak and simple minded people, who have no very definite and fixed belief, and glide along with the current, without any positive hurm: there are others who are fanatical, and, of course, dangerous instruments in the h.tnds of ihe rascals who control them there are others, again, who are totally sick of Mormonism, but remain quiet until an opportunity occurs to escape.

He reminded the members of fhe Church of their'convenant obligations,' and strongly urged that this was an occasion in which particular members were lo perforin the duties allo'ted lo them. This was in reference to the 'Danites,' or 'Brothers of Gideon'—a band of of organised ruffians in the Mormon Church, whose business it is to execute the mandates of the Council, 'right or wrong.' That such a band once existed, 1 hav» abundant proof that it now exists, I have no doubt.

Smith had appointed a meeting al his house for this same Sabbath, and. ai the hour approached, a hand of young man assembled around his door, and collected a quantity of atones ready for use, and as the Gladdeniles came and entered the house, a long, six foot, soowling Daniie, by the name of Cummings, in obedience to his 'convenant obligations,' took them by the collar ar.d led litem out. with threats ofextermination. Of coursO, the meeting was broken up nor am I aware that any has sinco been held. After these things, it was generally supposed by (he Gentiles that Simth would mysteriously disappear, as obnoxious men sometimes do here, but ho has been on his guard, and no catastrophe of the kind has yet taken place. In the meantime, conversions to Gladdenism are going on and what is 10 be (tie end of it, I do not know but that ft Is one of the appointed means under Providence, of ending the Mormon impos-

A Yankee Story,

The funny columns of ike English paper# derive more of their "stuff for smiles'** from the journals of this country, than ftom rfny other source. We find in one of them this ludicrous aneodote ot the Bewitched Clocki which was quite new to us:

About half-past eleven o'cfoctc oil Sunday night, a human leg, euveloped in blue broadcloth. 'might have been seen* entering Deacon Cephas Barberry's kitchen window.— The leg was followed, finally, by (fn entire' person of a live Yankee, attired in his-go-to-meeiin* clothes. It was, in short. Joe Mayweed who thus burglariously won his rtray into ihe deacon's kitchen. a,

Wonder hew much the old deacon'rifaae' by orderin' me not to darken his door again?' soliloquized the young gentleman. 'Promised him I wouldn't, but didn't say nothin' about winders. Winders is just as good as doors, ef, there ain't no nails lo tear your trousers opto. Wonder if Sally'll com* down! The^critter promised me, I'm afeard to move about here, 'cause I might break my shins over somethin' nuther, and wako the old folks. Cold enough to freez a Polish bear here. O, here comes Sally."

The beautious maid descended with pleasant smile, a tallow-candle, and a box of lueifer matches. After receiving a rapturous greeting. She made up a rousing fire in the cooking-stove, and ihe happy couple sat down to enjoy tho sweat interchange of vows and hopes. But ihe oourso of truo love ran no smoother ir. old Barber* ry's kitchen than it does elsewhere, and Joe, who was just making up his mind lo treat himself to a kiss, was startled by the voice of the deacon, her father, shouting from his chamber door:—"Sally! What are v«« geting up In the middle of the night for?" "Tell him it's most morning," whispered Joe. 'ii'tsst1'.. .1 "I can't tell a fib!" said Sally. 'v*u' "HI make it a truth, ihen." said Joe and,running to the huge, old-fashioned olocfc that stood in the corner, he set il at five"Look at the clock, and tell me what lime it is," cried the old gentleman. "It's five, by the clock," answered Sally and, corroborating her words, tho old clook struck five.

The lovers sat down again and resumed their conversation. Suddenly tho staircase began to creak. "Good gracious! Il's foth«* er," exclaimed Sally. "The deaoon! by thunder!" cried Joe.—^ "Hide me, Sally!" "Where can I hide you?" cried ibo distracted girl: 1,

"Oh, I know.'"stud he, 'I'll squeeze info' ihe clock-case.' And, without another word,' he concealed himself in the case, and closed the door. sMM-i it 4

The deacon was dressed, and sal don#' by ihe cooking-stove, p.ulled out Ins pipe,lighted it, and commenced smoking dolib^ erately and camly. 4Five o'clock, eh?" said he. "Well I ahall have lime lo smoke' three or four pip?s, ai.d then I'll go and feed the critters." "Hadn't you belter food llie critters fust.sir," suggested the beautiful Sally. JJ "No: smokin' clears iny head, and watcds' me up," replied the deaoon, who seemed not a whit disposed to hurry his enjoyment:

Burr-r-r—whizz—ding! ding! ding! ding! went the clock. "Tormenled lightning!" cried the deacon, startling up, and dropping his pipo on.Ha1 Stove "whai'n creation's thai?" "It's only ihe clock striking five!" said Sally, tremulously.

Whizz! ding! ding! ding! went the clock furiously. "Powers of mercy!" cried the deaoon. ••Sirikin' five! it's struck a hundred already.' "Deacon Barberry!" cried the deacon's' better half, who had hastily robed herself, and now came plunging down ihe staironse' In the wildest state of alarm, "what is the matter with the clock!" "Goodness only knows," replied the old man. "it's been in the family these hundred years, and never did 1 know it to carry otf so afore. I

W hizas! ding! ding! ding! went the olock again. "it'll bust itself!' cried the old lady, shedding a flood of tears, "and (hero won't bi noihin' left of II." "It's bewitched!" said the deaoon, who retained a leaven of good old New England superstition in his nature. 'Any how,' sn he, afters pau»e, advancing resolutely 1 wards the clock, "I'll see what's got into It." *«0h, don't cried his daughter, seizing one' of bis ooaMsils, while his wife dung to ihe other. 'Don't!' ohorussed both the women' together, "Let go my rsiment,' shouted the old dea-* con. 'I ain't afeard of the powers of darkness.' $k- .v-

But the women would not let go so ihe deacon slipped out of his ooat. and while, from the sudden cessation of resistance, they fell heavily on the floor, he daried forward, and laid his hand upon the olock ease. But no human power oould open it. Joe way holding it inside with a death-grasp- The old deacon began to be dreadfully frightensd. He gave one more tug. An unearthly yell, as of a fiend in dtftrer*. burst from the inside, and then the clofek-etse, pitched head-foremost at the deaoon, fell headlong o& the floor, smashed its facte, and wrecked its fair proportions. The current of air exlinguished the lamp—the deacon, the old lady, and Sally, fled up stairs, snd Joe Mayweed, extricating himself from the dock, effected his esoaps in the same way In which ho entered.

The next day all Applelon was alive witty the story of how Deacon Barberry's olock bad been bewitched, and though meny believe bis version, some, and especially Joe Mayweed, affected to discredit the whole affair, hinting that the descon had been trying the experiment of tasting frozen cider* and that the vagaries of the clock-case existed only io a distempered imagination.

However, tbe interdict being taken off, Jos was allowed to resume bis courting, and won tbe coneent of ihe old people to his onion with Sally, by repairing tbe old clock till it went as well as ever. j, lr
