THK UNION, Till’ CO'VSTITl'TION, AND THK LAWS. 8PKKCH Of THK HON. JOHN J. CRITTENDEN, At Louisville, on the evening of August 2nd, li-GO. Mr. Crittenden said: It is thought, ladies and gentle men, and I hope it may he so, that without the foimality ol an introduction I may venturo to address myself to you as oue who is not altogether unknown iu this city.— It is by an urgent icqttest, fellow-citizens, that I obtrude myself on your atteution on this occasion. I do not seek opportunities of sptaking—it baa become rather irksome, aud although compelled to observe the course of politics and take an interest in them, it is a subject on which I havo loug since teen fully satisliud. 1 uni no orator, nor have 1 any pretensions to advise you, hut I have no opinions that I care to couccal, aud when it is the wish and pleasure of my countrymen to hear me ou any subject of public coucern, I fe< I some difficulty in refusing compliance. It is iu obedieuce to sucli a re quest that I now appear before you for the purpose ol addressing you on a subject with which, I am sure, you are already quite familiar. Ti e political occurrences of our time have been of a character to strike so deeply in the public mind that there is scarce ot e so uuubs.rvaui as not to b i familiar with them. 1 fear that I can say t olhing calculated ei ther lo interest or ins ruct you. Kellovr-citizens, great questions are row pendirg and great events d. pend upon their issue. A Presidential election always involves to no inconsiderable extent, the tl.e public wrRare erd the progress of our Government, and the importnice of rhe struggle increases in propor tion to the character of the times, and the character ol questions depend ug he fore the people at he moment.— Perhaps there has hern no time past when questions el a lucre critical character were depending ilmu those which are now hi fore the people. Vou have before you a variety of candidates unkrosn on any former occua on, and these arc, to sonic i vlent, hi ought before you by the variety and interest of the questions involved I have it particularly at heart to in..ke known lo you the principles of this new pirfy which has riceuily sprung iuto cxislr me, and which has placed before you it* candi dates for your judgement and election — 1 nit au of corn se the ('onstitulim al I’nionParty, and their raudidates,Hell and Everett (Cheers) Fellow -citizens, it »»s a high public necessity, a great exigency iu public affairs, that lorcrd this party iuto i v ialeuoe. What, last whiter, was the state of our couu try" Two great put lie* seemed to occupy the nholi country. There was no other of tultl.ient important to attract the least public attention. Those (uirties wen sweeping on in a tierce contention that involved evert public interest on one tide or the other. What was thi character of the question, what was the subject about which those gnat parties were marshalling their hosts and preparing for a great encounter iu the a| proovhir g Presidential election ? One of those parlies was tl.e De mocratic, and the other the Republican party Tin question debated before them was that most i veiling ol all questions—the question or slavery. This was con ducted between than not with the temperance that marks the discussion and settlement of ordinary poliiieat ques tions, hut with the fierceness of enemies; aud the ques tion involved not cm r. ly the fate of parties, but the Ian of the count)y—Union and Disunion were involved ii the question. What good io i!d poi-dbly conic ot such a contest ? There was danger enough in it, but no good to tkocouutrv could Is- he mil for. The one writ- intis neoessardy be cout|ttercr, aui the other be tramplec into the dust. Victory to the one was proscription to the other, which threatened by resistance and force el arms to oppose the rxcrci-e of the powcia of government This was the prospect. There acre thousands of men everywhere who looked with concern, and, i may s>y. apprehension ami awe, to the result of stteh a contest What should thtv do* To jeiti one cr the other of then parties was to mingle in the eonll'ct and in the eviL Tic only way was to s'and forth liko men ami form anothei party; to form a par*y for the countiy; to form a party that would stand between these two hostile parties anfl prevent, as far as possible, any collision between them which might prore dangerous to the country ; and, if i< could uol succeed, if it should even b-‘ scattered between the opposieg hosts of seclionali-m in their mighty eon H ot, it would yet break the shock of the encounter, and save the country. It might bo that the presence of such a party appealing in the field of con teat—calm, patriotic, with suitable and proper representatives at it, head—would make such an appeal to the reuse and pa triotic feeling of the country as would draw aside these combatants— draw them to a patriotic standard, and uuite them together and govern the country. This war the oljeet and expectation. It was with these purpos s and upon these principles that this Union party sprang into existence and took its place amid the contests of the partisans. (Applause.) It took its aland between the Democratic and Republican | allies. What was the basis upon which it presented its.If? It came on no art.li ctal pDtlorm. It cjuic with no studied creed. It came upon a great and high principle. In this simple lan gmgeit was expressed: "The Constitution, the Uuion, and the Knfoiceineut of the I.iws." (Immense cheer ing ) These are our principles. Wo want no platform to captivate or ensnare men. We appeal to them upon the simple principles of patriotism and of self-preset vat ion for their glory and the glory of our land. | Applansr.) — These arc our principles ; here are our purposes ; To maintain the Constitution which our fathers gave us ; to maintain the Union which exi-t«d anteiior to the Consti tution, and which was only lonlirmtd »ud sanctified by the Constitution; to enforce lue hwsol'our cosutry ev erywhere. (Applause) All can understand this. It is a plain enunciation of principles. No subtle discrimina tions, no dubious resolutions, no ad captandum phrases, no {reads proclaimed to bind the hearts and blind tin judgments of tuon; but principles inherent in the gov eminent and common among all the people—"The Un ion, the Constitution and the Daws.” ((treat applause.) Hi re is aground broad euough for you all to stand up on. We come with no old paitr feuds and accusations We come as a new party—a party diawii g its strength Irom the Constitution. It has sprung from the bosom o' that necessity which seemed to tequire and demmd its interposition for the sake of the country. I came with uo accusations, no denunciations. It eante as a peace maker to take its stand upon our owu uative laud, stid to implore our brethren of all political parties to cease that desperate struggle in which they seem about to eugige, and to spare their country. We came to make a ptrty for the country. Tin re were parties enough striving for their own interest We w anted a party to strive lor the interests of the couutry and the whole country. (Ap plause.) We nominated candidates. They ate before us. You know their characters. Mon of tried integrity; men of age and experience ; men practised in the gov ernment fur long periods of their livis, and ill every branch of it—as Senators, members of the House of Rep resentatives, is Ministers in the Cabinet,as foreign Minis ters. In all ihese vatied capacities, those two gentlemen have clliciated, and where are there two men in our coun try who have come out of these trials with characters mote unblemished than theirs ? (Prolonged applause I Who questions their integrity. You have heard noue make a nuestinn of it What is the language employed by the great parties with respect to ail the ether candidal) sv I will not re peat it. Their is hardly any term of tcproach spared them. These other gentlemen stand up iu l it ir solitary integrity and purity of characttr unsullied aud unques tioned. [Immense applause.| They come wi h the Constitution in their bauds. They coiue imploring their bretbreu to forgire each other, to lay aside their hostil ities, to cease those fierce broils that arc slienaiing sec tion from section aud mt n from men. Let usjoin hands and be one nation, one great aud happy nation. | Ap plause | This is the appeal they make 10 the American people. For itself the party claims nothing hut the char acter of a mediator, entertaining and cherishing the kindest and most fraternul leeling towards all. This is the character iu which it presents itself. I have not, 1 think, overdrawn its features. 1 think our party and its candidate deserves all I have said. Compare them with the competitors that arc now- engaged in fierce contest before you. if li -I! and Everett succeed, what is to be the consequence of their administration? Dees it not of necessity bring together all parties? How can ihey, be ing elecred by uieu from all panics, coining lugcther a mighty host of voters, help saving their country?— [Cheers. | It will be a triumph nf the country, not a triumph ol party. [Applause | Who have the Union uieu to exercise any vengeance upon? Who have they accused? Who have they denounced? As individuals they have their opinion* and feelings wi ll respect to all passing public measures aud to all present public men; but as a party they are but as vest -rday, brought iuto e vstence by the eouutry's exigencies, and for the coun try’s preservation. The come as a peace-maker—as a mediator. They have uo vengeance to wreak upon unv one. Their victory aud tbeir triumph shall be the tri umph and security of all. [ Enthusiastic applause )— This is a victory worth winning. Iu almost all victories that are gaiued in civil cortiicts there is as much cause to nrouru as to rrjoice. If there is oue victor there is oue conquered man upon whom he treads, aud our sym pathies are divided between the ccuqueror and the pros trate man. Ours is a victory free Irem all such tarnish ing reflections. It is one of pure exultation iu our coun try's triumph and iu our country’s geo 1. [Cheers ] Look at the other parties and see what must be the consequences ol their victory. Suppoa; the Republicans succeed, what then ? Mr. Lincoln may be a very worthy, upright, aud houest man. He married a Kentucky girl, and that is a wlioletome influence. (Laughter and up platise.) I am told be is a Kentuckian himself, which is another salutsry fact. Mr. Lincoln may be a very hon est, worthy man; but, in a political point of view, he must be regarded as the represeuta'ive of the party that has made him its leader. He is the Republican leader, aud, 1 kc all political leaders, he must obey the party that brought him iuto existence or be put down and crushed out by it. He must be governed by the political influ ence and voice of his ptrty. Mr. Lincoln is at the bead of the great anli-sUvrry party, a purely sectional party, which, according to all its antecedents, threatens the ex istence of slavery everywhere; »nd the apprehension which his threat excites is increased by the fact thst al though the leaders and wise men ol that party mav not proclaim such sentiments, there arejenough among them in their camp who do bold and proclaim auch Abolition dootrion a* must make everv man South feel uneesy in his condition and in bis property, Tee mere fact of Mr, Lincoln's election would be, therefore, a great calamity to the country, though he never should do en set posi tively ofteneivo or irjurious to any interest ol the coun try. His electiou would create end continue an alarm that would keep the country agitated aud unhappy, if not create an opposition and resistance to the govern ment itself. It i» greatly to be desired that he should not be elected. It Is hsrdly necessary to say that we should be forced to apprehend from Mr. Lincoln’s elec tiou that the impulse which (he anti-slavery feeling would receive therefrom would go further than it bis yet gone, and create still greater dangers to tbe peace and security of the South. This ponrading apprehension w ould nr ccsearily make his election a greater calamity. It there fore enters into no competition with the election of Messrs H.ll and Everett on the score of beneficence. Prom them there is nothing to be looked for but peace and se em ity, with all tbe sanction that a manly, brave, and de termined Administration can give to both. (Applause.) "Mr. Douglas and l.i-e party come next You all know, at w< 11 as I do, of tl e rupture that has taken place iu the Democratic party, and in its convention assembled for the purpose of nominating candidates for lire Presi dency. It divided—one party seceded. Mr. Douglas's numerous adherents went to a neighboring house uud made a nomination. The nomination fell upon n citizen of our own S a c—Mr. Jobu 0. UrcckiuriJgc. Now, what is to be apprehended from Mr. Douglas, If he is elected President? Would not the Breckinridge men continue to idlkc war upon him ? Would not the Itepuhlitfuiia continue to make war upon him? and, irri tated by a common defeat, would ibey not be apt to foint au alliance against tbe snccessful rival who had succeed ed to the Presidency ? Yes, Mr. Douglas would be in a very d ftijclt situation iu administering the Government without the support aud maintenance necessary to the usk. I know ttr. Douglas very well, ladies and gentle men. Prom Mr. Douglas personally, I should apprehend no danger. 1 have never been a Democrat, as you all know. (Applause). A frank, fair, and honest opponent of the Democratic party, I have ever been fouuil acting upo;t the Wlig pi inf'pics, from the first to the last. (In orca-ed upplaii-e). But I have known Mr. Douglas in the public councils, and have acted with him. Although gem rally opposed, and especially upon party questions, ve have at times acted together, and particularly upon one moiuentuous ocrcsion, wliott wc acted together iu opposition to that infamous Lecomp lon Constitution. (Deafening applause.) Mr. Doug las wna there making a great sacrifice to his -euse ol duty. (Appla use.) He was sacrificing hi*connec tion, ou that occasion, wi It many old pchtica! filends ; he was breaking up the relations of n long poll ical life; he was sacrificing as finite ling prospects lor the high, si fiice of the Government as any man iu (hr country had I fully believe ho did what he rooerived to bo bis duty ; and, in defiance ol all opposition, tbe rack of tbe I’re.'i dent, ollVuded friends, and open lues, he acted like a man Tremendous choeiiug.) Be might have been mistaken in what In- did, hut that little diminished the value of the set. Ho thought be was right, aud he knew he war •linking a sictilicc, and he was capable of making it win n he bilived the into rests of.I.is country demanded it (Cheers.) lean have no quarril with him ; he is a I'niott man (Cheers.) And a Union man I can always rust, when i believe him to be sincere aud in caruuet, as I believe D.mglas to he. (Goutitiurd applause.) But s'.ill this is no' the question. Mr. Douglass repre sents au old party, at fend, in the lirs! instance, with tin Kepublican party, railing torth its bitterest opposition. uo* hi it’mi wiui tin* etnniirrii wing 01 ois own par u, tlint has nj eied him fur enothei! His would be an ideiinistration of continual conflict. The country could nope for no restoration ol peace and good government, lie therefore ought not lo be preferred, in my judgmet t, to Hell and Kverctt. (Cheers ) 1 have spoken not to compliment Mr. Douglas merely; I hare spjk'ii because 1 desire lo give my testimony to Ids truth. I believe Mr Douglas to he patriot, and I know I ini to be a Union nan by all the evidences that one public man eau give mother of his sentiments. (Applause.) He is a gener ous, bold man, speaking what he thinks, and doing what he knows to be right. (Repeated applause.) But lam opposed to Mr. Douglas. 1 am for Bell and Kverctt.— (Immense applause.) We are now left only to compare Mr. Bril with the (bird candidate who stands in opposition—Mr. Breck'O li lgr. Anil here again, as in reapeet to Mr. Doughs, my rbjection is not to the candidate ts an individual. 1 •hot Id hope that Mr. Breckinridge is not a disunion man. A voice—Yes he is.) He ought not to be. He he 'rn( s to a tribe of faithful, devoted Union tuen—the jibe of Kentuckians. (Great spphtii.-c ) He tr.us; have h en seduced away from the path of his duty, fir front the path in which all the impulses of his hi oJ ought to -sirv him. if he has become a di-unionist. But Mr. IIn ckimidge has made himself the head of a party. He is | art and parcel of the present purposes of that partv; in , a- in the case of Mr. Lincoln, we must judge of his pubic ourse by the paity that he concents to represent. V ho are tliev? There is not a disanionistsouth of Ma •on and Dixon’s line that I know of who does not belong to that i artv. (Applause. I We have fora long time beard in ittcrini a of disunion in the South—more than mutter ing*—tin re than the whispering of such seutinients. We have seen them proclaimed by high men in high places. We have seen conventions assemble for the purpose of promoting the cause of disunion. We hove seen it lirst ss.ni mo th- character ami name of nullification—the State claiming be right to ar.niil the laws passed by the whole people of he United S’ates, to annul acts of Congress — and from that day to this we have seen it assuming one fur n and a other form, one face and another, one pro evt and another, by ibis man and by Hint man, by con 7i Dtious -hs* mblcd for the pui|M>Sf, by open negotiations carried on t>< tween the Suites, and by public declaration? tliat the inoveaiont was poitponcd because not enough States in the Sou h could he got to go into the enterprise to make it successful. We have seen all these evidences of a spirit of Disunion. It is not iiiverial lo say now Irnm what case this sp:rit has sprung ; tint let me for a single moment allude to this snhject. Why are tliev for a dissolution of the Union? What harm has this Union done ? Wrongs may have been done individuals. They may have received wrongs by unjust legi lition upon the part of Congress. Our great meu may not have had their lair sh ire ot public honors fioni the hands of the Pres ident. They may have received wrongs of this sort, bill is the Union the autlioi of such wrongs? What is the tetuedy which must be sought? It is to turn out of their places in the proper constitutional mode those who have misadmimstered the government. The government has done uo wrong. The Constitution and the Union have doue no wroug. They command i •I'.ml justice to be done to every man aud every Stale and every section. Their agents may have disobeyed their injunctions, and every thing may have been done wrong through individuals, lint individuals are amenable. W hat remedy would the destruction of the Constitution afford ? Could they gel out of its ruins indemnity for the wrongs on account of which they would tear iu down ? Could it give any sat isfaction? Could it niako any atonement? No. And yet, by some strange perversity or other, their minds have been brought to look upon disunion ns a remedy for political wrongs. It lias caused uouu of them; the des truction ol it would be a rctucdy.for none, hut the great er' of all evils to the people of the United States. 1 ill >rs have taken a different view of it. They look »' i disaffection towards the Union, qn.J openly avow it. I ultra Southern States pirlwlpaie in this fnoliug, and B ttors in Congress, men, 1 know, of character and re pi ation, espouse the same fatal cause. This is the party ol which we may entertain apprehensions that it will ef fect the dismemberment of the government. Mtuy ol iu numbers are noble-spirited gentlemen. It is only upon this one subject that tliev have becu misled or have misled themselves. Thev have been be'rayed into this delusion. Iii all other respects they aro generous and of high characters, hot the spirit of disunion prevails among tht in, and it is only the more dangerous when entertain ed by such men. They op'ttly talk about it, they write about it, they invite it. They have rocked themselves into the belief that the Government must be dissolved. They want to meet the imagined necessity at once; they want to dissolve the Union immediately, to precipitate the people into it. The people are not so far-seeing as they are. The leaders anticipate overt acts ou the part of the It-publicans, and want now to effect a revolution in the cotton States, and establish a new government.— These sentiments pervade the South and make up the body and soul of the party which has nominated our fel low-citizen, Mr. Breckinridge, us its candidate for the 1‘resideucy. Is lluire no danger that by electing him you would give new energy to that destructive impulse, and new power to this disunion sentiment, and to the cause of disutiiou ? Mr. Breckinridge himsell loliowa iu the lead. Ue is part and parcel of the great party. You see this by his nomination and acceptance of It, anJ can hence foresee with clearness the disasters that would follow his success. Possibly it may be the pohey of those who nominated him to uuile Old Kentucky to this uew Confederacy. Old Kentucky is quite an important Stale iu this Union. (Applause) Sh.< is in the heart of it—she in the heart of it. (Immense enthusiasm.) To nhtaiu her concurrence is ol the grea'c-t possible con sequence to those who fancy that tbry can make a Re public in the Routh more glorious and more prosperous than the great Republic of which we cow form a purl. Such have been iheir plans for a loug time. Kentucky and Tennessee, width old Geueral Gaines called the two military States ef the Union, have lain in the way of that sort of treachery to the Union. (Long and loud applause.) They are two States not easily overcome, and though I would not wish lo diminish the honor of Mr Breckinridge's nomination, as he himself conceives it, yet I imagine there are thousiods in the South who would go for Mr. Breckinridge mainlv in the hope that it might be the means of annexirg Kentucky as a sort of frontier province to this Southern Republic of Cotton Slates that U to be made. (Cheers gnd laughter.) If they can bring about that union, If thuy can bring over old Kentucky and make her an ally of their scheme for the dismemberment of this confederacy and the erection of a aeparatc Republic, it would be a matter of very little consequence whether Mr. Breckinridge was elected or not. ( ontinued cheering.) Thay would rather have Kentucky for their allv than Mr. Breckioridge for their President. (Increand applause.) There is no diaunioo ist iu the South who would not make that ohoioe. I tear this. I am a Union min, and particularly j -aioua of everything that tbrrateoa the exi-dence of the Union. Every one of you, I treat, remember! the farewell ad dress ol George Washington. Upon the tint dawning of anything like an attempt to alien U one portion of the country from another, he tells us to frown lod’gnaut ly upon It and upon the man wbg shall attempt even to impair the tics which bind us together as one people and to he zealous and watchful of the Union as the grrn palladium of onr lights. Tho ground of those su.-pici ons nod .apprehensions is more clearly discerned ever; week. I believe it is my duty to have a lesions regari for the safety and preservation of my country and tbi Union, which I take to be one and the same thing. (Applause.) Old Kentucky has ever beeu the stronges supporter of thia Union, and under no circumstances, trust, will she ever be seduced from that high character She is sprung of a noble race, directly fiom the Revolu tion that established American liberty. (Applause ) Our soldiers, fresh from the field of war with Orest Hri tain, and immediately after the establishment of inde pcndcr.ce, sought in this section that bounty laud whici was ail their country had to give in return for tbeii deathless service. Shall we, their children, pull dowr the work of our fathers with our own sacrilegious bands, or see it torn down by others ? If rn English, a French a Russian, or any foreigu foe should contemplate tin Waring down ol'this government, would you not slircJ the last drop of your heart's blood in defence of youi noble birthright ? Shall wc stand by and see the same thing conU'inpU'ed, the same work done by our own countrymen? Will von stand by and witness that hor rid act performed? Will you allow yourselves to be driven in or drawn in as accotnp ices to such an ignomini ous act? No. Unless Kentuckians have changed their blood, and uhanged tbeir natures, no such thing can take place. (Repeated applause.) Fellow cit'zens, I ihiuk no candid man, upon a fair review of ail there parties, and t‘ eir candidates, and of the vita! comequencM < f the < lection of one or Hie other of them, will hesitate to say that piudeace, patriotism, and reason all say, taka for your Gil ef Magistrate John Hell. I hope that will lie your judgement. I rejoice to ree and understand that it is ro. We have the greatest couutry ou the face of the rarlii. !.ct not our minds be so distracted by mere party strife and confusion that we shall see our govern ment fail to pieces before our eyes, and sacrifice our country to our party, instead of being ready at all times to sacrifice onr puny to onr couutiy. After wc become 'be slave of party, we dare no', in the presence of any danger to the country, turu our backs to our parties anil “ay that we Lavu a country that demands our services and to i will wc give them. Arc wc now utialdc to do this? Hive we lost this spin!; has it gone from among its ? i’rovidencs has given this great country to us. Our who and vaiiat.l forefathers gave us liberty and establish ed a government for us. Let us lake care of it—lake care of the Constitution and the Union. (Applause.) That is all we rrrpiire. We have before ns the prt-.jcct of a xlory unknown to other nations—a piospecl in which our laud will become tho glory ot the earth. Nobler Home nor any of the great empires of sutiipiity or of e.iodcrn times cm compare with whut we shall be at no -li-taulday. We are now thirty million.! strong, yet we have been hut eighty years in existence as a free Lotion From the year 1776 down to the present time, liod Al mighty has blessed us above all other people and si! oth er nations. Where shall we lie thirty years hence, if such prosp rily attends us? A great nation of one hundred million souls, with not enough llu-li to develop alt our re sources. Every man freo to think, free to speak, free to act, free to work. Wnal must ibis mighty freedom pro duce w ith this mighty concurrence of tu arte, ol heads, ol hands I What i aviee, what sunns, what eiti-e! le t in Ill: nutsclvos lo the contemplation ol what our children w ilt lie. S5n.il we not leave them a legacy a* great as iliat •mr fa'licrs left us? let the contfiiipl itlon of the mighty dea’Jnie* involved in our Confederacy engage us un ll we absorb the genius of this Republic ami its Constitution. Let it enter into all our motive* of public action, that we may no longer be the tools ami slaves of parties, of par ty platforms ami of patty convention, I do not intend to disparage any par y in particular, but have not your parties and pi rtfornis limited tbe free doin and independence of your intellect and your action! If you aie tol l that the convention has done so and so, that points are settled by the Democratic Court nliun held at Cincinnati or C hit lesion, do not you my Demo cratic friends, hesi'tle to express the judgment yeti had furmecl, do you not hesitate even to think in opposition io pm ty dogmas? This slavery of intellect is in a ftarful measure degrading. Without tangible authority, it bind* by tome mysterious influence your heart, your head, and your conscience. Tits "tegular nominees,'’the “tegular platform'’—these ate considered gs of authority, they have a talism ttiic influence. You know not whether these conventions lo whose tod you humbly submit y out selves were composed of patriots, pondering tbe good of the common we* lit, or of knaves, consulting the brat poliev of robbing it. When wc forget our country and disobey our Constitution, wc listen lo the turn mops of party. I do not object to party and the i| te»tious of party, so long as they sc< k to establish no exclusive do minion over the actions and opinions of tr.cn,and so long as they ’cave the people free in the exercise of their judgments. But whew we doijbt, wijen tyc think we see our pirty is leading us wrong and that there is a better way to serve our country, every man then ought to have integrity and heart and patriotism and independence enough to act for bis country uttd not fur lids parly. He was made for his country, and let him serve it. His party may be forgotten to-morrow—his couutry will be remembered forever. (lircat applause ) The service* lie renders his coun'ry will be recorded in history; tbe servic s bo render* hi* parly will be forgot* ten and trampled in the dust. In the services we render our country, we fulfil the obligations placed upon us by our Maker. The obligation wc owe to our father and our mother is a sacred one, but not more sacred th m that wc owe to our country. Our services to parly may be recorded in petiv polities. The services leudcicd by this inaii ot that man may bo cast up hereafter, and the aggregate sum fouud to amount to the Vi lac of a little post olliee. Arc tyesc motive* and eot.sid> ra tion* worthy of icentu kittiis V It is no course of action for you. If 1 want to appeal to a Kentuckian, I appeal to Ills honor and to his integrity. (Cheers.) These be long <0 him ns a birthright, as un inheritance from his father and his mother. This government was nourished with the blood of the one and watered with the tears ol the other. It cost your mothers more tears than it did your father* drops of blood to establish this government. It is the r< collection of those days which must enter into your nature in order to (liable you to fulfil your duty to your country. Ladies and gentlemen, I do not pretend to trace tin history ot these parties very particulailv. I appeal to yottr genera! knowledge of the ease. I have occupied yon already longer than I purposed doing, and yet there is one point upon which I would say a word. It is ob jected to this National, this Constitutional Uniat) party, that it has no platfoim. I have casually remarked upon the platforms before. Tbe want of a platform is the re commendation of our party. I do not want a party that will cheat. I want not to sot up my painted party to at tract the people to it by its brilliancy of coloring. The soul of our party is expressed in the simple hut grand words: "The Union, the Uon*titnti.. ...I Out of the grand principles thus announced you may make ns many platforms as you pf-ase. Does not this include everything ? If the Cuiou i.t pie-crved, if the Constitution is observed, if the laws passed by our legis latures ate enforced, what has any citizen a right to ark'.' Will not hia property, whether it consists ol slaves or other things, l>e protected if the laws areeufored?— Here is everything yon want, expressed not in the gaudy and ostentatious largusge of parlies, hut in the simple language of truth, lu very simplicity is its reecommend.itioD. It is Miked truth it its nuked tn-jesty. This is the attraction it has for me, and I trust for you and for all the people of tbe-se Stales. I want toseeoueniau elected President, who, when he comes to take Lis seat, will have no platform chains upon his wrist* and about his t.eek. Bat do Presi dent’* mind platforms if they are not agiecable to them As soou as they get the power lu their Lauda, platforms are forgotten—this is ordinarily the case. Let there then he no deputing about this feature of the Union Party. I want a President elected upon the Constitution; n bold nun who cannot he *cartJ: a man who loves the Union, the whole Union, and will stand by it and con sider it his sacred duty to protect or perish with it— (Applause.) 1 know there are those who speculate upon the speedy di-*olntion of the Union, but they are self-conceited men, iiufailliful in their natures and unfaithful to the great government of which they ought to he proud. They speculate about the destruction of what is as firm and deep as our mountains and 1 hope and believe will last about as long. (Applause) I glory in the thought of leaving to my children and my countrymen so great and grind a country as is this. (Applause.) Is it not surprising, when the great questions of the advancement of our country by tbo culture of its citizens, the dissemination of intelligence, and the improvement of our social condition should engage u*. that a great body of the people are engaged in quarrelling about the li tie questions of ‘'intervention'’ and non-intervention" in the Territories ? 1 believe the question is mentioned in all tho party platforms. I have had a natural aversion to platforms. I hardly ever read a platform In my life, and when I did, I tried to forget it as soon as possible. The Con stitution is platform enough for me. The Constitution and a man to represent the people is everything that will ever avail us. This question about which the Democrat ic pirty is quarrelling, as I remarked before, Is one of the most minute and Important questions that esn well be im agined. Mr. Douglas says, in substance, that when you hive pawed a law establishing a Territorial government, when you have delegated to the people the power to reg ulate their own domestic institution* iu their own war, you have given them power over overy subject ss far as you can glva it. A» for the slavery question, every man has a right to go there with his slaves, but how they must be treated will depend upon the dis cretion of the Terri orial Legislature. It is good policy to leave i to them; for if the oa'iou Interfere, its trans actions will then become national; It attract* the atten tion of the whole people, it srouse* a national controver sy. You want to keep the question of silvery out of Congress; you want to keep It In the Territorhs, and leave the question there to be set ltd by Territorial gov vernment tt-elf. It is a government not designed to last long, a lew year* will convert it intoaS'tte. it is better to confine the quei'ion to these local field* than to oon vulse the nation with It. It is better to boar the ills that may arise there than fiee to greater national ones we know not of. (Applauae) The other side says; But Congress shall interfere;- Ccn , gress shall pass laws s|e;ia!!y taking he question out of t th1 hand* of the Tirior al Legislature; it sbsll pass laws (or tlie protection of ?| cciil pro; erity, .'a»s that arc to apply only in our Tcrrlu rice. I This dispute rclites entirely to 'erritorial slavery aud i to territorial remedies. Does it oc ur to you, that uuder • the existing circumstance, it makes much difference practically whether Congress shall interfere or whether Congress shall leave it to the Leg'slature? In Congress, this session, where «e passed resolutions avowing our mete power over slavery, it was asked, is it necessary now for Congrcis to intiylere? There was no case call ing for the interference of such power by special legisla tion. No Sena'ir would lake upon himself the re-ponsi biliiy of proposing any such ease, except one, I believe, who ventured to aay he thought there was occasion.— Southern Senators agreed that there was no cause now « Msttug upon which they would advise legislation; and yet we are quarrelling about the degree of power which is to be txercised by Congress, not with resp.ct to nny Territories which we now have, but in relation to a case tbit may arise in some future Territory. None is antici pated in any Territory which wc now have to fiU. To make it a practical question you have to suppose a luture Territory of a character to attract id every; that there shall be an emigration of slaveholders to it; that the Territorial Legislature which assumes to deal with properly has committed a !l .grant outrage; and that the individual has called upoirCongress. These con tingencies must ail combine, and then and ihen only do theae learned and tierce disputants insist upon the exer cise of power by Congress. We have no Territory where such a question cau arise. W e have not now a siugic piece ot Territory to which slavery would go if it were invited. Why then tlL-putc about a possibility that will probably newr aiiss. They are so impatient with hav ing nothing to do, that they fall to quarrelling abou what lies in dim futurity, aud by speculation raise up in a spirit of discord a possible qutsltou which may occur tweuiv, fifty, or a hundred years hence, or that may ne ver occur. They remind me of a story I once heard T*o Italians were wall ing out 'ogether oa it bright mid sumnur h'glit. Cue looked up to ti e heavens, thick with innumerable stars, a id exclaimed, “O, tbut I had a farm as spacious as ihc lies yens. That would be an ■ s tate woilb having!” His companion exclaimed, “0, that I had a herd ns numerous a< I lie stars aliuve."— “ Well,” said Ihc other, “ in the name of leaven, what would von do with such an enormous herd? “Why," said he, “l would turu them on to your farm." (Laugh ter ) "You would, aye," sneered the other. “Y«s, what else could I do with them ? ' I pou that they quxrrell d and fought for au hour. (tire, t laughter) Now it decs reem.- to me that we are about to make out just such a Diootndiinr sort of case. (Continued laughter) Hut it is slid Ur. I. ueoin's election will consummate the dissolution ot the Union—that he will not be per milted to take liiu seat! How is that? if a man is elected to the f.egisUluie by a m-joiity ol tbu people in a lair and legal way, though you voted against him, won’t you say he is entitled to his s-mt? Would you not consider the power very arbitrary that would under take to keep him out of his cilice ? You have a right to il et him, or anybody else, and, if a man ia cons Hu (ioually elected I’ceaident of the United States, shell a minority of the people sta't tip and fay, “Wc will make a revolution: this man slull not he I’residcut of the Cuited States; we will hv force of arms resist it and drive him out?" Is uot that a destruction of ail gov ernment? The majority nitt-t of necessity ride in all republics, and if you do uot like the law’ of the ma jority, set aside all free government, and go to some ' place wl ere you will have no election”, where hereditan i rulers shall take the | Lee of your elective government. W ho will -av that if Hr. Lincoln, or anybody else, is constitutionally elected to the Chid Magistracv. he slull not take Ins re.it? Have wu come to tins? 11 so, Id tu change tin; 'Whale gorcrnment, and let the minority rule, though ci.-it iheu would no*- the uu jority men ob ject to the vh ction o( a man by the tuiuority! The Constitution provided tlat tie ttrro of the Prcri dent should be comparatively eliort—but four years— . tl inking that now ami then a tfingcroils nun might hi t lected, but that lie could not, withal the guards that Congress sc: up around him, in the short space of four 1 vears, do much to undermine and destroy the liberties o! i the people. Shall we nuw introduce the principle nf an archy, and suv the in in >1 ctcJ who du.-s uot please us (ihc minority) shall uot take It's seat ? Wou'd not there he time, whgu he misgoverns, to call him to account, ac cording to the constitutional firms providid for such cises ? It is upon great principl e that gorerumen's depend, mil these great principles must bear a relationship to you They must be recognized or you have no govern .Jcnt Mall—nothing but anarchy. it you exp ct j our government to be perfect and glide on without disturbance, you will be deceived. You must expect occasionally to bavc your mil Hdmininratiousand bad government. Hut if thl» government in the main advances your social condition, secures vour peace, adds to your gieatne-s, t is a good government; atiu especlaly, above all tbincs, if it sb II preserve your lib rties and your tight', it i- a covert hi til worthy of your support and p'otectioti. (Applause.) Now, my fellow citizens, I owe you my thanks for your attention to my desultory remarks. And you, ladies, I am glad to see mingle in cauuspl, and, while securing order and decorum bv your presence, add the purity of " set tuner,t which lovily women must ever inspire. (Ap- j. plause ) In vour hinds rest great inure-is. If you can not lie Presidents, your sons and your brothers can be; " and, at last, whether iu oflice or out oi cliieo, you govern us all. ((treat applause.) I have only to say once more, gentlemen, that you have but a simple t»‘l. to perform. Y?t it is a task for men. It is a task which requires coucago. which require* independence. It is to take oirc of the I’tiior, the Con stitution, and the Laws. Take care of these, and be as sured they w ill take care of you. Vour safety lies in the performance of that one little act.
