RrtolrgJ, That on this hallowed day we wiould re call, with gratitude aud thankfulness, the memory of our lathers who. in l“7n, on this con- crated spot, turned the tide of war, give strength and hope to our union ami independence, ard led to the estaMi-hroent of both.

The Na* tide -V.v< of the - 1th con tains the following allusion to the Convention, from wbiih we infer that an "xpre-sion of preference for Hon. J no. Bsi.l was declared: “The delegates to the Opposition State Convention, for the most jstrt, left town te . rdiv, intensely gratifi d w th the results of their dtdiberatlous, aud animat- d by a buoyant, unconquerable -spirit. They have entire con fidence that Mr. lie 1 will carry the State, should h- t*e the National Union candidate for President.

E~q , of Loudoun, on taking the Chair as President of the Whig State Convention: Gentlemen of the Convention, representatives ol the Con-titut • • tl l uion Party of Virginia—soon, 1 trust, to Is; expanded into the great Constitutional i uion Party of the nation, with a platform, broad enough and strong <uoigh to contain all the conservative elements that may exist in all the parties into which the country is now un happily divided ; 1 tender you my cordial thanks for the honor you have conferred on me, by calling me to pre side over your delit>erations. On mv part, it is wholly unmerited. I have not the •kill * oicti experience alone can give—no knowledge of parli uneutary law or the rules of order, and have never presided tor an hour over the deliberations of any pub lic assembly. So fur a* the mere preservation ot order is concerned, 1 have no tears of exhibiting any deficien cy ; for, iu an assembly like the one before me, no occa • a wiii arise for calling the power of the Chair into ac tion. Our meeting here, on the 123th anuiver-ary ol the birth of George Washington, from all |M»rts of the Cobi tnouwealth, is owing to various causes. We selected this day because we wi-hed to do honor to ourselves, by at ■ tempting to hot.or hi* memory. He lived for the l u iott—he died iu the Union—he was buried in the Union, and one ot our object*, indeed, the leading object, lor » eh we c une, »n to prevent, by the exertion of every faculty winch God has given n*. the future historian from rvc irdiug it-* m> lauciioly fact, that his honored remains I; • in a d. i.uted member of a once united and powerful empire i>i treeun n. The most precious, and theinostex , H HI im 1 uv a gia'elul country.io the n;em o- v of a great public benefactor, is the purchase of Mo u Ytr m by :hc women of the United Mates. That is no sectional monument. It was not reared bv contri butions from the east or the west.the north or the south, alone. T ey c tie from the entire Union, the efforts of female cr •• i: ude and patriotism were hounded by no geo graphical line-, it is a shrine erected by ull lor the use of all, and one ot our objects here to-day, is, to prevent the pi gii ns who tuav r. sort thither to renew their vows, in ah . nniing time, from being obliged to exclaim, “ II e are no / in ■ r m our <. i roHH-ru " We do not mean, it we can prev. i.t it, that Edward Everett, ot Massachusetts, Iren shall bn obliged to say upon that hallow ed spot, “.l ml ire too are alien*.'’ We came here, gentlemen, because we have seen the country, ia the main, divided into two great sectional A aing the pv-tons and exciting the preju di -1 - of our fellow - iti/. ns, upon a subject, which both ot the political | irtie- ol 1MM» agreed to compromise and forever bain-h from the national couucils—a com pr t i-c which i ot those parlies, iu its separate po litieal organization of 1S32, res- ived should be atinality.

If the treaty u- rejected, the money would be lost, lor no court iu Christendom, no sovereign ai biter to w hom the question might bejreferred, could decree iu favor of the elaiuiant wit- nit violating the maxim that “he who comes into equity for relief must have clean hands.” It ha* never been my practice, and it is not now my p irp« -», t > utter harsh denunciations, but superadded to all ■ e-o evils, actual and impending, we are told by the nig .- st Democratic authority, that the present adminis tration is “reeking with corruption” in almost “all ot its department-," that the “timbers, great and small, are worm-eaten and decayed, and must bo replaced bv new and sound materials, and whether the premise- be true or not, the conclusion meets our cordial appiobation.

Virginia, from the chief Magistrate to the liumb as among us, with being their aiders aud abettors, 1 would try at hast to imitate the exam del of the Iiom.au who thrust his lands into the •lime- .’ ! he l it thine until it wi* consumed. Audi ever, during the cauva-- of ls.v.t, heard the subject al ii led to by am member ol the party to which I belong, . ve p: tor the purpos- of exposing the it justice doue to George W summers, who »u« immolated on the altar ot ja tv, for .g in far le-- degree, in lS-bJ, what the gh prie-t-, who otheiat-d at the sacrifice, justified ,• d excused John !. tcher for doing iu l^ls. Among other names given to us, as I learn from the i ews. ij ei s, an 1 now from my friend, Mr. Flournoy, is that ot "Luiuu Shtickers," aud I for one will accept it, and wear it proudly, lam wiling to be placed in the category with ol the article* ol con f icraii :i. w ho nude a ytr/-ttual Union—with the au • nor- of the Cons'iluliou, who made a m -re prrfttt I’hioh_with George Waahington, who, itt I lid, uttered a shri. k for th Union, the echoes of which will never d e And this day, n.Jlio s of freemen are li.-'en ngto the voice of him. who, though dead, vet speaketh, and if the bronze iljn of the s’atuo which adorns your eap.tol square, could be atiitin’ed with life, you would hear a -hriek for the Uniou that would reverberate through all the p. uns aud mountains of the laud, fiom M line to Tex as, and troin the caps* of the Chesapeake to the golden gate of San Francisco. Gentlemen, it i* in our power to organize a party, which, although it may never be a majority, may yet serve, and pcrbaji*, save the country, in the reign of each of the two last Georges, his majesty’s opposition was more efficient in protecting the rights and privileges of the peo ■•t K: a ; t:...:i his majesty's administration, and this fact i* illustrated bv at least one memorable instance in our history. Iu the Oregon dispute, the issue was fifty lour forty or fight with an tmeoruin issue, or forty-ame, with peace ami honor, anil the latter was adopted, be cause there was an.organized Whig party, which, although a minority, served as a rallyiug point for Calhoun, Kenton, and others, who, on that occasion, left their |>ar iv for their country's good. Wo have lived through suc cessive defeats—sometimes in glory and sometimes iu gloom, but never in shame; and we eau do so again, for whatever may be said of us we cannot be charged with having becu held together by the “cohesive power ol the public plunder.” We have not come here to say for what causes this Union shall be dissolved. That is beyond our province. That we have been grievously wronged by some of the people of the North,and hy some of their Legislatures, is a fact that admits of no denial. But that any act has ev er been passed by the Congress ot the United Stales that will justify Southern men iu breakiug up the l niou, is a proposition that cannot be maintained, and iu saying this, 1 do not mean to express any opinion as to the wis dom or policy of its legislation. The celebrated ordinance of 1787, whether it was tight or wrong, received the sanction of N irginia in the most solemn form. The next legislation on the subject is to be found in the act erecting Louisiana into tw o ter ritories in which it is declared "it shall not be lawful to bring into the territory of Orleans, from any port or place wiihiu the united States, any slave which shall have been imported since 1793, under the penalty of the freedom ol such slave.” And this act received the sanction of Thorn as Jeflerson, then President of the United States, while James Madison was his constitutional adviser and Secre tary ot State. The next was the celebrated line of 360 30" establish ed in 182o, mid sanctioned by James Monroe, who then h id as his constitutional advisers, Win. Wirt, of \ irgin ia, Jo.in C. Calhoun, of South Carolina, and William II. Crawford, of (ieorgia, forming an actual majority ot his cabinet, and all Southern rneu. ’Ihe next was in the annexation of Texas. Congress gave to the President, the option of proceeding by treaty, or under the authority of its joint resolution, and although, that joint resolution by its terms, excluded slavery from that part of Texas, north of 36° 3i>”, aud although if acquired by treaty, it would have been all slave territory, the then President, John Tvler, of Virginia, with John C. Calhoun his Sec retary of Slate, elected to proceed not by treaty, but un der the authority of the joint resolution. The next is to lie found iu the Oregon bill, which nppli'd the \\ ilmot Proviso to the whole territory, aud that received the sanction of James K. Polk, also-a Southern President ol the United States. I am opposed 10 the application of the Wilmot Provi so, for the past and lor the future ; but 1 do insist upon it that the circumstances under which it has hither to been applied, do not justify us, as Southern, incu in breaking up the Uuiou. We are asked to what degree of oppression we mean to submit "before we resist. [ answer, 1 do not know. Too haulers of the Constitution did not specify the cau ses for which it should be subverted. The conventions of the States who ratified it, did not rej.ot it because those causes were not specified. My relations to the Union were not established by the Governor of Virginia, nor by the Legislature, and neither one of them, nor both combined cm change them; and if Wise or Hunter or Douglas should be elected President ol the United State-, liv a purely sect oual vote, and the Governor ol \lu- achiL-etts should,on the announcement 01 that event, take military nos-es ion ot the navy yard at Charles town, and the armory at Springfield, he would in all pro bability be lun g for treason, lor wiiat is treason in the . a-e of John Brown,w ould be tre.isoi ; iu the ease ot N 1 thmnlwl p. Banks. When the people ol Virginia find thrir grievances too into.efable to be borne, they will by legal means cause a convention to be assembled with au thority to issue her sovereign command; and when it com.'*' to me ii thutautheuti ■ form, I will render prompt obedience. And when that day comes, which may heav , 11 iu its mercy forbid, I hope she will act with the dig miv which liccotnes her—that,discarding the doctrines ol IKUIlUl.luuii nuu . ‘ - --» - wilP’boldiv proclaim that “ resistance to tyrrany in obe dience to God. A lew more words and 1 have done. At tin- end ot Mr. Buchanan's term, the Democracy will have been in power twenty-seveu years aud eleven months, out of thirty two years, ami now finding them- ! selves unable longer to carry on the government, they j appeal to us 10 rally under their banner a- the only means | ot defending the rights of the South in the territories ol I the United States, ami upon that banner there will be iuacrib a a: Charlestown, in April next—Stephen A. , Douglas and Popular Sovereignty. And w hat do they liman bv Popular Sovereignty ? That the emigrants to the W<»t shall make the laws, establishing or excluding slavery, as they please. From w hence are these emi grant- and law-givers to come ? Front the free States ol the Union, containing a population ol eighteen millions. From England, Scotland, Ireland, France and Germany, with a population ol more than a huudred millions, all of '■ whom, that have been edit -a'ed, a', all, have opinion.-ad- ; ver.-e to the institution,aud the rest ot them, without ed- I j ucation, believe that liberty consist- only in the abseuce i 1 of all law. But it is said that the decision in the Dred Scott case forbid-a territorial legislature to interdict slavery.— Granted—but can judicial power compel the law making power to legislate against the will of the legislators?— Can slavery exist anvwhere without the special legislation which the very nature of the subject imperiously de mands? If the territorial legislatures will not protect aud govern it hv law, what i- the remedy? I maintain that wherever it may 1 iwfullv be carried under the de ci.-ion of the Supreme Court, if it can find no other pro tection, Congress must give it.

Resolved, That to repeal the acts of Congress prohibiting and punishing the Slave-trade is alike uu wi-e, impolitic uml against the settled policy of the coun try. 5. Resolved, That we regard the unity of Govern ment, ordained and established by the Constitution of the United States, as a main pillar iu the edifice of our real independence, the support of our tranquility at home, o tr peace abroad, ot our safety, of our prosperity, of that very liberty (iuterwoveu with every ligament of our heart-) we so justly prize : that we regard it as of infinite moment, tha? all aim tld properly estimate the im mense value ot our N ttional Constitutional Union to our collective and individual happiuess ; that are cher ish a cordial, habiiuil and immovable attachment to it, a vus’ouiing ourselves to think and speak of it as the pal ladium of our political safety and pro-perity, watching lor its preservation with jealous anxiety, diseouutt-uau eiug whatever may suggest eveu a suspicion that it can in anv event be abandoned, and indignantly frowning upou the first d iwnings of every attempt to alienate any portion of our couulry from the rest or enfeeble the sa ered ties that link together the various parts, aud we de precate all measures and repudiate all purtie.- that tend to its overthrew. б.
