Why, gentle Men, when theNdistin. cmished.Secretary of State, Mr. CObli, who from having been a seperfine Onion man, has been converted into-a fire-eater, equal to Mr. Chaubert hithself—when Mr.'Cobb came in to Pennsylvania, - and traversed our Sthte from end to end, and from county to epunty, talking to.delighted audiences all the time,. what Ives the burden of his theme? Why— Popular S3vereignty. ,1 would take the Ar my and Navy, I would use every power 'of the Federal Govriment, I, would surround the Territory but what the people of Kansas should vote, and,•by,their vote the destinies of the future State should be decided. When- evera Southern orator came into Pennsyl vania and called,' upon me, I said to him :--e ' i' Now, Sir, I have but one thing to say to • you ; we have but a single sthin,g before the • people ; every day is making the campaign more and more doubtful ; every day is mak• ivg the popular feelieg, more and more in. tense; Mr. Buchanan himself feels that eve n-thine depends upon the prudenCe, the sa ., e neity, and the spirit of conciliation by which this campaign as conducted, and for God's sake take _care What you say - about Kansas ; leave y•tit• violent Southern feelings at home; • you must not come ti threaten; yoti °over , 'Mr Johnston, and yeti Mr. Scott, 'of Rich. mond, end ,v6is Mr. Extra Billy _ Smith, and ' you Mr. Secretary Floyd, all of you, must remember that if youlose this: battle here. you lose it altogether; it will be your loss, and therefore you must allow us to manage it our own way. And they did accede to that policy, without any protection, and glad= ly. There was no deception in that,fight, at least so far as I was col - teemed. r sowed *the State with private letters and private _pledg es upon this question. There is nit a coun ty in Pennsylvania in which my letters may not he found, almost by hundreds, pledging Mr.,Buehanan, in his name, and by Isis an• dimity. to the full, complete ' and practical recognition of the rights of the people of Kansas to decide upon their own affairs,: (Amdapee.) , Gentlemen, he was elected. He formed his Cabinet. He issued his Inaugural Ad.. dress; and here, at this point, let me *ay, , that the public, confidence inspired , by phis nomination by', the Democratic - party, and the apprehension of his election inspired in the Republican ranks, that public confidence In' the matt was renewed and 'revived by the publivation of his Inaugural Address., The ~ .Ileriblicans, many of them who had 'voted (~rJohn C. Fremont, said :. " We believe in Mr. Buchanan, if he stands by the doctrines, of this Inaugural Address we will stand' by ! • Ji ll ." Now. lily: he donesso, the llepubli - I my ii ii n and the American parties, in y opinion, ‘a,uld have been extinguished ; we would have been one great, happy, national Emily. ' After all, what the great pass of he people in this country desire is a good Government. ' Every man in `his country is not an -office ' seeker. Nine out. of ten are disinterested in their relations to this Government, and they arc ready to vote for'John B. Ilaskin, i , l- Jahn Smith, if they have confidence in he man : and Mr. Buchanan would .have suits l the country as well as any ether man, if he bad but fulfilled his pledges; .and there fisre it was that when his inaugural address was published, they said one to the other- We believe in Mr. Buchanan—we ate, sorry that w' have not voted for him ; ,but we are willin g to trust him and, stand by him to the end. Mr. Buchanan had before,hun a future which Washington, if he had been living, might have envied—a future which, if he had walked resolutely in the path he had marked out—the path illuminated by his - resolutions and pledges—would have allowed him to go down to the grave with the acclamation of the people. Posterity would have pointed to his administration , s tet a model and exam. pie to all generations; Pennsylvania would have had no cause to have been ashamed of her Mee favorite son. No, my f e lhaw.eome try men ; but he did trot stop here. As if for the purposa of acetimulating•pledge upon pledge; as if for the purpose of piling , up . a pyramid of promises. upon this question, what did he do next ? He looked around to see Whom he should get to go to Kansas for the purpose of s_ettlin);•• the vexed question. which had renderedisansas; what it had been graphically 'termed, " the' graveyard"oT Gov; ernors." • He sought no inferior man ;he would -not be tempted to take an' ordinary titan. He selected a gentleman, a states man, ii ho had been presented.by a large por tion of the leading and prominent Men of the South for a seat in his Cabinet; who.had for years represented his State in.the councils of the station.. He Selected Robert J. Walker. And when he called upon Mr. Walker, and asked him to proceed to the :Territory; Mr: Walker said to him: " Why,'Mr. Buchanan, that would finish me forever; . it 'hes ruined 'every-man who has gone there; it will ruin, me. I have reached that time of life when I ' ettimot afford to risk ail • day prospects, and probably the peace and 'happiness •ot:iny fluidly." And he.said further, as if gifted• with a knowledge of the future, ".1 cannot run the risk of being most probably betray ed and deserted by the Administratidn that appoints me." Mr. BuChanan said to hifli, " Mr. Walker if yoti will go there, you will settle this ques'ion in a few weeks. Every.• thing is ready ; here . are- your instructions. I pledge you my word that _everything- you. desire, you-shall have. Mr: Walker, as,,if 'lnstired bytt sublime,snspicion, said, " Mr. I - i Buchanan, -I will not go to Kansias until you allow me to meet your Cabinet face to face, and ascertain -from that - Cabinet in „person whether they ;sill agree that Ishall.go . there , and carry out the pledges svf,t,he campaign. of 1856. :Accordingly a meeting Of:the Cabinet.of,,Me.

I had abundioit pledges as to his course, but s befere. publishing that paper I took care - to write to Mr. Buchanan's Cabinet, and to himself, and told them on what ground I intended to Stand on this question of Kansas.. They were so good as to send me sufficient written. tes. tiint-ny strengthening me in thelposition I had assumed. • I "Went on with Walker .and Stanton; until the Oxford and MeGee frauds took place, when there was a burst of exe • cration_ throughout the country. The whole Detuocratie press had argued - constantly 'the policy - of the Administration up tothat tinia ; but when Gov.

But when the derk, damning deed of . Lecompton was perpetrated, then "'saw, for the first time that those gallant men in the Territory, • ,Walkor anti Stanton, and those who acted with them had been deserted. I saw that Democratic principles had been carried out by them, and we were now called upon to turn. our _backs upon our pledges, and betray our manhood. (Applause.) Gentlemen; there was some thing too much of thiS ; and when the cup was presented to my lips, I refused it.— (Cheers.) Administrations - may change, Presidents may change, but I . had-been too fully committed on this subject to go back to' Pennsylvania • and turn my hack upon pledges which 1 had both spoken and written to thousands of men. I did not fora moment believe that the Administration hail conclud ed to abandon the principles which had put them power; that they were resolved to make their policy a test; su whei'l went to Washington and called upon my Old friend, I said too him, "‘Mr. Buchanan, for.the first time iii our lives we are at variance; I . find mysellStanding by one principle having fol lowed your lead, and you have deserted it."

I told him that li. was very well with an Administration sir: rounded by office-holders and living ail the time in the atmosphereof flattery, that was followed-by thousands of gentlemen who ex. peeted piece ;. that they could come to him and say, " You are right, Mr. Buchanan, we. are down on our bellies, please to walk over us—please trample upon us and we will be. happy and content. and hope-you will believe. your policy is right." "But I tell' you;".said `I,.
