We commend tbo following from a 4 th of July address delivered Ly SiJaj Wrighl in 1839, to attentive perusal. In these times when sectionalism is doing its utmost to distract the country—when disunion Is openly advocated by infidels and fanatics, a voice of warning from the grave of this eminent patriot may be of use: —

"We, fellow, citizen safe inhabitants of* the most populoni state of tha Union. Do we regret that the compromises are made? That so mnch of onrjn»trelativa strength in the national government was surrendered to secure so great an object? Would we now consent to bring the least possible danger npon this glorious system of government by any effort to regain what was thus generally yielS'ed? Would we even consent to' agitate tho subject to the serious dhquiet of the Union, or of oar sister States interested? At the timo of the adoption of the constitution of tha United States, New York was among the class of the most populous states, but several wore more populous. Under the benign influences of that constitution it is, th|t she has reached her present enviable height, population, wealth and prosperity and certainly we shall not be tha portion of her population who will set the e&raple of placing in jeopardy an invaluable good by tha-uncertain and angraciouspursuit of an advantage unimportant the comparison. ’ *Tp.there bo those among ns. who, misled by a mistaken sympathy, or by snddan excitebdht, upon any subject are forgetting their obligations to the whole country, to the constitution, and the Union, let ns use every efiort of persuasion and example to awaken them to a sense of their dangerous error.; If those who for the sake of private interest,-personal ambition,: momentary political success, are willing to experiment, upon the puhlio passions, to 'treat lightly 4beir constitutional. obligations, to foment sectional jeafdnsies, to raise op geographical diawithin the Union, let the absence. of oar countenance and support convince sachf that the persona) gratification, or. pnblje of-any living'man, are not snhjecU of anflicient magnitude to bo gamed |at tho expense of harmony of the country, the peace or the Union, or a single letter in tha list of oar constitutional duties, \ If a'mong os there be any', which Heaven forbid, who are prepared, for any earthly?object, to dismember onr confederacy, and destroy that constitution which binds tqs together, let the fate of Arnold I’c and let the detestation and scorn af every American bo their constant companions, nntil like him, they shall abandon a country whose rich blessings they are no longer worthy to enjoy." •

Mr. Fillmore’s election to the Presides)' cy will remedy these evils, 3 *nd reform these errors and abases. Thb perpetaatiou and increase of oar vaitiommerce, the claims of human advancement in civ* it, political and social life,-the honor of onr country and the perpetuity of its in* htitutiouj, the sympathies and hopes of the oppressed of every land, the memories of the illustrious dead who gave ns a written, constitution and our form of gov* eminent, the associations of the past, and the hopes of the future—freedom, fratbraity, patriotism—all, all impel us to aid in (he election to the office of Chief Magistrate of our epuntty, the than, who, When in the south-west, rebellion sought to carry out its treasonable intentions, silenced it into submission by tne utter* ance of a sentiment worthy of the prond* est Hays of Roman Republican virtue;— ,l l om sicorn to execute the laics. Icon do nothing elie. It is my duty, and by the blessing 0/ Qod it shall be done " The man was Millard Fillmore, of New York; and New York mar&ell be prond of her son. Jpr And now fellow Whigs, having spoken of our duly independent of our party organization, permit us for a moment to address you on matters intimately connected with our party organization. We have not abandoned pur own separate party. Wo have never intended to abandon it,and least of all, have we now any intention to abandon it. So soon'as the excitement of the Presidential contest is over we propose to perfect all our* arrangements for perpcluatingour party existence, to‘hang onr banner on the .Outer-walls, and to rally again under the standard that has so oft«n waved over the ■ victorious hosts of the Whig party of tpo Union. Our prospects in this respect is a lhou-; sand-foldvrtnqre cheering than it was a short yjjapago, and with each revolving montauwill bnghten yet uiore and more, la the delegates to thKatio^lrijfflhjg^Jnwition at Baltijmjl “ in.mass convep tliat we will ma and beep step to the mPunion which is our proud heritage. Vof the address, when the name of Henry,: Clay was first mentioned, apeffect storm of chWrs burst forth from Uie Convent ion, which-was repealed at the allusion to Daniel Webster. But when the administration of. Millard Fi 11 m ore was referred to in terms of just praise, the enthusiasm. knew 'no .bounds, and far exceeded anything of the sort we ever witnessed at any previous Convention. - The members rose to their feet as one man. and round after round or cheers went forth hnril the.hall rang again:with the uproars of applause, r while hats and band kerchiefs were waved aloft; It was several minutes before the'reading of the address could beproceedcd with. .These demonstrationsofapprovalwerocoDstantly repeated, and were given with a heartiness and earnestness which manifested the sincerity. of;tho Convention..' At the conclusion of the reading .of the address, it ivfta adopted unanimously and with nine cheers. 800 delegates weib,present.

It is a moral impossibility that the electiou.of a President, upon such a platform con restore domestic tranquility, or secure that fricddly confidence, and those peacev fnl relalibhswith the pother gneatpower? of the" world, 'by 'which alone, con. our vast resources,of agriculture, manufactures and commerce be adequately developed. By peaceful means, by, pre-eminence in invention, ''industry.. anil entorprize, our cuuntiy is rapidly acquiring supremacy in commerce upon .the ocean, and a coot roll • ing inflnence 'ambng the; nations of the earth. t A giant progress,marks bur era, and distinguishes our cquplry, and if out rapid aiid honorable adyancpnient is not inrerriiptctl by doibesiic agitation, or foreign embroilment, two mustsoOnbecome firet among the nations, v For no temporary ends; to gratify no personal or evanescent feeling, can wo as Whigs give our support to n party that by perpetuating agitation at home or creating distrust abroad would impede our advancing greatness, i The; harmonious working and'fuller developments of our domestic institutions—the. establishment of peace and; fraternity bnipng ourselves and’of good will toward all nations—the iutercsts of oar commerce and, the moral and political eloyation of our country—these are of far, iar higher moment to us all. both of the North and the South, than mere party supremacy, or the acquisition of: territory on pur own continent and in the islands of the sea. We cannot, therefore, support the Hon. James Buchanan, aliastho Clncinuatr Platform. It Is. a matter of regret that sumo of our former associates have reached a diflereut conclusion. Wo cheerfully convene to , them purity of intention, while wa respectfully .express a; doubt of the wisdom of their decision. .

Of the State of New.York, Aug. 14./56.

Made glorious Summer by tins Son of York. For his ' election will restore peace and tranquility,' and pul a perpetual end to the disquietudes that already threaten the foundations of that sacred temple which our fathers reared with such self-denying patriotism. , A man in known, not by his 'professions.biit by.his deeds. Am! we have deeds by which to judge of . Millard Fillmore:'; When he entered the Chief Magistracy, the presence of a strong mail and a patriot at the helm of affairs, was immediately felt through every part of the ’Union, and from him'whose heart'was as benevolent as his life was pure— whbse yearnings after peace and fraternity .were as anient as, his devotion to'duty was upcame fortli a power of will, 1111 executive energy ;and firmness,-' that spoke words of high encouragement to (he lovers of order and of union, that arrested agitation and. quelled disorder, that held lawlessnessi’in check--and. by. the rtlmtinddlgnified niahiferiation of their presence made disunion quail, and revolution flee Troiu the fair' territories of the United States. *

Fremont. He too is a Democrat, and as his brief presence in tho United States Sen: ate showed. aDcmocratof the same school as thfi present Administration, lie has .made, no recantation of his general political faith. His preheat party associations have not required U of him, Tho solo condition imposed upon him is that lie shall with them on tho inexhaustible Kansas question, and upon all other political doctrines there shall he no questions asked fur.conscience's sake.' , Mr.,Fremont-avails himself of this arrangement, and except on that single issue is a Democrat still. That question disposed of, he is af liberty to indulge his Democratic propensities, and to burthen tlid couutry withthe equivocal hlesbings of-unrestrained Democracy of tho Fierce and :Douglas stamp. Were ;we 'disposed to concede the possibility of Mr.Fromoni’s election, we should look upon his political future with distrust, as wo do look upon •his brief political past with disapproval. In Mr. Frcmontthere is a ntp.u remarkable negation of all qualifications for!the high trust which, he seeks.- : We ha voyet to learn that a young man becomes'filled for tho Presidency simply- because lie has displayed capacity , of phyMcalcndorqneb a .d by the aid of experienced. guides, and of companions as hardy as himself, has traced a new path through a mountainous country; honorable as that may he to his enterprise and courage. We believe the people of the United Stales deem tho Presidency loo high an ofllco to bo thus disposed of. Ami yet, in all soberness and candor, wo know not what other special qualifications for the Presidency Mr. Fremont has exhibited. Hts friends make no boast—as well '.hoy may not—of his twen ty days—more or less—of Senatorial life, but refer to it reluctantly and apologetically. lu truth, the question of comparative merit as between Mr. Fremont and any acknowledged statesman or political leader, cannot be raised. As between him and olherbcroesof adventure it might bo raised. Them remains another and final reason why, as wings, wo cannot support Mr. Ft cm out. This is found in the animus ot the party that has put him in nominatiou. That party is eminently sectional in spirit. As National Whigs, wo have always held that Northerners and Southerners uro classes,of Americans unknown to the Constitution, —which brings us ah on equal terms, in ono category, tab veoflk of tub United States, and the voico of tho majority of the pooplo is authoralive and' binding,’ from w bate vet quarter of tho compass,it may come.

If we thus unite, Mr. Fillmore’s election is secure. We have bad experience enough in electioneering campaigns to know that the cry that ho cannot be elected, is a weak invention of the enemy. Let us try if we cannot secure his return to the Presidential chair.— Who supposes that Col. Fremont, who cannot obtain tho electoral vote of a single Southern State, can secure tho necessary majority of free Stateelectoral tickets? And yet our Republican opponents have no intention of abandoning the contest, and why hhonld we? There is at least ns open a door for Mr. Fremont. Let us as Whigs heaitily help, in the absence of a candidate of our own, to secure Air. Fillmore’s triumphant election. Though disorganized and scattered, we can count our votes by tens of thousands. Added to tho votes of his own numerous .and powerful party, the Whig vote may secure that desirable result. We do not thereby
