Jifter the subjoined toast was read. “Hon. William S. Ramsey.—Our repre sentative in Congress. dlis.lalents, integri ty and ardent attachment to, and efficient support oftirepublican principles, have been too marked to escape the abuse of his polit ical opponents, but arc known and appre ciated by the democracy of this. Congrcs-- sional District; His affability of manners, and gentlemanly, deportment combined with untiring habits of industry, are a guarantee-, that the interests and wishes of his constitu ents will be faithfully represented.” Mr. Ramsey rose ami addressed the com jianysas follows: Gfnllpmeri:— Under ordinary circumstan ces, I should have'willingly permitted-the compliment just paid me to have passed in silence, as the mere evidence of personal re gard. But the relationship that now exists between us, enjoins upon me the duty of ac knowledging your kindness. Another year has elapsed, and another page has been added to the history of onr country since we last assembled arpund the festive board. Within that period; we have witnesstd_.the bright prospects'ol (ho far mer vanishing under the withering influence of a tropical suri, Nhd again viewed our fields waving with the-fruits of agriculture, , We have seen the mighty ocean subjugated to the power of steam, and beheld the rise and fall of political dynasties. , ■ Witfiin our own bprtWs we have not been the mere spcctatorspf passing events.

Cataline was a ,distinguished Ho man Senator, descendeiLof a' noblß'familyr When he had squandered away his fortune by his debaucheries-an,d extravagance and been refused the consulship, he secretly med itated the ruinof his country and conspired with manyjof the most illustrious of the Ro mans as .corrupt as himself to extirpate. the Senate; plunder the treasury/'jn‘d : dissolve the gbverifnvent.' CicerD Avas- at that- time Consul, and.frustrated by his prudence and management, combined with, his eloquence the'plans pf the conspirators. Bolingbroke remarks in connection with the event, that ■to little purpose would Cicero have attack-, cd Cataline with all-the vehemence that in dignation and even fear added to eloquence, if he had trusted to this weapon alone. This weapon alone would have secured neither him hor, the Senate from the poinard of the assassin.; He would have had no occasion to boast that he had driven this infamoug citizen out of the walls of Rome, ahiit, cx ' cesait , evasit, erupit,- '.if he had not made it beforehand impossiblefor him to continueany longer in them. - As little occasion would he have, had to„assume the honor defeating without any tumult or any disorder the de signs of those who conspired to murder the people of .Rome, to destroy the Roman em pire; arid "to extinguish the! Roman nartie, if he had not united, ny skill and management in the coramdn cause of their country orders of men the most: averse to'each other—-if he had riot' watched'all the machinatioris of th.e conspirators .in: silence, and. prepared a strength sufficient to’resist them at Rome and in the provinces, beforehe operied this scene Qf villairiy to the Senate and tKe pCople. ' In the history of the famous Roman con spiracy,’ and the means applied for its sup pressiori, we read the events of later days -within,the confines of our own Common wealth* Cataline and his band of incen diaries had imitators here, who, . thirsting for power,, aiidT defeated in their aim, were willing to turn the bayoaets of an armed sol- ■ dicry on the people of Pennsylvania, destroy the republic, and reduce us to anarchy.-- These are bold and startling assertions, but we cannot slumber over the distant muttcr ings of the earthquake,-nor-bccome-sudden.-. ly insensible to'the loud explosions that rpeked our political fabric to ita centre.- — We saw the capital of our State, converted into a military fortress. We beheld a thou sand men paraded in all the pomp and cir cumstance of war, and marked for a time the complete dissolution of government. — That these events were the results of a dark conspiracy to carry out the principle of de feating the popular voice as expressed 'con stitutionally at the polls, cannot now be de nied by the most sceptical of political devo 'tees. Indeed, after the close of the late canvass for Governor," the proclamation Was boldly and- unblushingly. made, that the e lection was to be treated asrif it had not happened, and that the votes of the freemen of Pennsylvania were to be scattered like chaff to the winds. This insult, although coming from a high.public functionary, was looked upon at first as the idle menace of a desperate adventurer; and not until the meeting of the legislature wc.i;c the citizens pf the Commonwealth fully aroused .to a sense of their danger. "We then beheltl lhe Secretary of State, the minion of the Ex ecutive, withholding the/ returns of elections from the House of Representatives under pretences the most sophistical, in violation of law and custom. 'The members elected to"'the' ilotrU&.fithfP-fftie-of the counties of the- State by overwhelming majorities, were to be excluded by the Secretary and his coad jutors, and, under illegal and fraudulent certificates, the minority candidates were to be forced into their scats at the point of the bayonet. In the Senate, the Speaker in ac cordance with previous, concert, and'irrdis=- regard of established'usage, seized the chair before the organization of that body, for the purpose of pcrforming'tho iniserable.part as signed him in the plot. Two individuals, the automatons of the triumvirate, appeared,- were permitted to be sworn as members’ of the Senate without the shadow of right,;and and in violation of the common principles of honesty. In addition, preparations were si lently making to,annul thc-popular election of Chief Magistrate, and publications issued under the eye of the Executive, threatening an appeal to arms if these high handed mea sures were resisted! , Was it to be expected (hat (he patriotic citizens assembled at Harrisburg; would sub mit in silence to these iniquitous violations of (he constitution? Did the conspirators contemplate the same quiet victory over the people’s rights, that they achieved in re chartering the Bank of the United States?, If so, they were wofully mistaken. The spirit of patriotism that glowed in the bo som's of our revolutionary ancestors when they pledged their lives, their fortunes, and their sacred honor, on (he. altar of their country, was. not yet extinct. Their sons witnessed a more daring attempt against the liberties of theircountry, than the mere im position of a stamp tax. They bcjhcld an evident design to unite the Legislative and Executive branches of the government, ami to perpetuate the power of the Chief JVlagis trate. They saw before them the shadowy outlines of a despotism, which can thus only be formed by the union of all the depart ments; of the State in the hands of one indi vidual—and is it surprising (hat they pre pared for resistance? Had they submitted in silence," the constitution was a dead let ter, and future generations would hqye pass ed into slavery, or become rthe, victims of revolution and anarchy. : ; The" adyocates~T)lk;ai;biti'ary""government" dwell .upon what they, call the scenes of tu mult— a season. ; They sanctimoniously represent themselves as the exclugiVe' friends of social order, and invoke public-censure upon the citizens who frowned into'insignificance the attempt to;subvert the constitution,' We are also continually "denounced. as dema gogues, mobocrats, and revolutionists, with-, oh t principle or patrloti3in, whil3t.they claim to possess all the decency, talents, and or derly deportment as the peculiar-attributes of their party ori parties, whether hydra headed or -monotonous;" These sage advo cates of ihc.supremacyof theTaws seem to ’ forget, thavthey, immaculate as they are, were.in theirq'Wivproper persons the individ uals .who raised thW s torm, and only,from sheer necessity advocates.of p'eace when, they found tliav,(he: spirits of the deep would not obey their'shy,.
