the Barbncue given by citizens in the
vicinity of Mount Carmel. Wo estimate that
there were seven hundred poeple present. The
object of ill is dinner, as \re understood it, was
notliiiifT more than to have a social ingniheiiii.' of
friends and neighbors ; for tlie ptnpose of entertaining
(hose who might usHetnble, the Committee
of arrangements had chosen Co!. M. O. Tai.man
and Lucjex [I. Lojias, Esq*., to speak on the
occasion.
Capt J. F. Caliioun, acted as President, and firs,
introduced Col. Talua.m, who ?-poke some forty
minutes upon maiti rs of State and national polity.
lie spoke with great ease and fluency*. His
diction and manner impresses one with the idea
that he has in a very marked degree, the art of
conveying with nrifnl elegance the impression*
of his own mind to that of others.
lie alluded to the froe negroes in our midst
and advocated tlio pa?e?ge r?f a luw, which
would permit any of them that desired, the privilege
of chot-ing a master and being told into
slavery. Thia is the main feature of the remedy
he proposed by which tlm country conld be rid
of this indolent class. Thin would be eeti:iir>1v
- - J
a liuin.iue mid innocent law, and would be harmleas
if it done no good.
At the conclusion of Col. Taj.man's spcerh,
L. II- Lomax, E>q , arose and held the attention
of the audience during a speech of an hour and
twenty five minutes. lie had for h is Miliject
"The practicability and efF.-ct of u Republican
form of Government. lie handled the subject
with a masterly hand, becoming truly eloquent
in many passages of his speech. His manner
was calm and dignified. Ili* speech well delivered
mid universally commended bv all who
heard it as a learned and philosophical disquisition
upon Government. Onr spuce would not
permit lis to notice at length the various propositions
which he ho ably labored lo maintain.
We must be content wiili stalinc, generally
some of t o points discussed, lie proved the
feasibility of Repuhlicun Form of Government,
drawing upon nature and Revelation lo esthhhsh
the proportion. He argued that inan whs not
only capable of i-e If -Government, but that it
alone was suited to hid nature ; thai thin was proven

was the hintory of tlio struggles of the people

lie alined to and answered successfully the
objections of munnrclii?t to Republican in.-titutut'ione,
showing conclusively th>ir falacy. lie
spoke of the huppy effect of Republican Governmeut
upon the people. One effect waa
that wna opposed to nil Legislation for particular
classes. That the resources of a country
under this form of Government are more successfully
developed, and thus the greut end of civil society
would be developed (viz.) the enjoyment of
the greatest amount of happiness by the greatest
number. He claimed that this form of Gov.

The cause of It* it* tendency in our own Governrn?ut
he thought wt<re owing partly to excess of
liberty, hut inninly to a want of a proper discharge
of duty upon the part of public oDices.
He thought too, that demagogiHiu in our
country, contributed greatly to ihie. Ilo divided
demagogues into two classes, tho vulgar and the
refined. The one glorying in their shame and
openly using all the means in their nownr. to de
grade the people ia order to gniu influence, the
oilier the refined, class claimed to be decent
people, but in his opinion, tliey were the most
disreputable, because they effect their ends under
the garbe of Honesty, and are therefore,
more capable of doing tmsuhieC lie denounced
the poliiicbl hypocrit, and paid a due compliment
to that caudar which render* tt friend or
foe, open Prank and honest, in ihe avowal of hit
opinion*. Such, said he, would do to be trusted
any where, and constitute his bcati ideal, of a
perfect man. Repeating the dying declaration

ORIGIN OF SLAVERY.

of the Unit I'd States, giv>-s an account of
the early trallic of tli - Kuiop?nus in t-lnve*. In
the middle mjes the Venetian* pup li.ised white
men, christians a id ol hers, and sold them to the
Saracens in Sicily ami Spain. In Kn^hmd, the
Antrio J*nxon noliiliiy sold their servants as
slaves to torcigm-is. The I\ntti?nese fust imported

The Soiiih is irreconcilillily opposed to
that princijde ; nod as the South dictates ihe

Charleston platform. Certainly tlm uoriheni

hut granting their undivided sympathy with
Douglas, yet any ultampt to exercise their sectional
preponderance would lie followed by the
immediate secession of the southern delegate*.

The Mammoth Cave Outdone.?D. Ii. Talbot
makes the following comparison between the j
Wyandotte and the Mnmmuth Caves: " Wyandotte

County, Indiana, about twenty five miles below
New Albany, on Bluo River. I have called it a

We rest our claim on the very words of the
