&ilk], °Vet., laid upon , the table, taken up ,

bills 'by the dozen, for reilrodde in all the
Western and_Seinthwestern States, and In
Some of the State& and covering.ma.: l
ivy millions df the choicest pickings of the pub
lic domain, have been introduced into i.both
houses. Several of them have passed thci Sen-'
ate, and one of theist, granting about a million
'and a half of acres to a railroa& through the
State of Missouri,has passed the Horse.i
'13197 general scramble and rush by railroad
speculators have been of such unparalleled
loosenesi that; as if to escape the wholesale,
corruption of this business, the House of Rep
resentatireN.by a two-thirds majority, havo re-,
oently passed the Homestead bill, ceding away
tlicrentfre public domain, in grants of quarter,
Sections, to actual settlers. '
In this exigency , of wholesale; corruption
and stock-jobbing in the public lands,the nom
ination of Gen. Pierce, and tho. Riltimoreplat. ,
come in very opportunely to the disper
sion of the plunderers of the public treasury.
•
The railreod bills are stopped 7 —the schetnes
• of the. land_ jobbersare suddenly-checked.—
The Baltimore declaration that the true Indicv
of:the government is to appropriate : the land
?weeds to the payment of the necessary ex
penses of the treasury, is thus a timely decla
ration; and if it means anything, it, is binding
upon the democratic majority of both houses..
The public lands are the properly of. the Uni
ted States—ell the States have an interest in
them—and if they - aretO - be - given away to aid
in the building of railroads , ruid canals, New
'York, being ono of the UnitecfStates to whom
these lend& belong, is justly entitled to her
share, according to , her weight of, representa
tion in Congrcsa. . The Democratic platform
Aibnios the constitutionality of the Whig meas.,
me of the distribution of the proceeds of tho
public' lands among, the States; but if, the
hinds themselves are'. to be parceled, out to
railroads, plank roads; or canals, `every State
and territory , in the Union is , entitled to its
shire.._ There is no real distinction bet Ween
giving away a Section of land, and the moth"
for which it will sell. In either forimit !is so
much money from the public treasury. !The
excuse that by giving to a railroad: through
the 'public domain one alternate section, you
double the value of the other section retained
by the government, is but a-triek.. The cost
of the railroad is thus extracted from the pock-_
cis of the poOr settlers,.to the profit of.. the
railroad specalators. '
The whole system of these. railroad projects
is corrupt. It reduces the public domain to a ' ,
mere corruption fund for the benefit of stock
jobbers and speculati ng members of Congr,
It is a matter of public satisfaction, therefore,
that the democratic part - Y.llg . ° put up a candi
date and'a platform of the most decided, hos
tility to
-all these schemes of the land-jobbers.
It is gratifying to see the effect already produ
ced by, the action of the Demikratic Conven
tion upon &agree's. There,hns been a chalk
put upon this land-jobbing, Which we ;hope
will be followed up. The . Homestead bill 7 it
self hangs fire in the Senate;'and it is highly
probable that the Baltimore ticket and, plat
. form wilt bring the democratic majority of the
&mato to the direct question of the policy of
retaining the public dtmain as a fond for the
wtyment of the public debt—N. Y. Heruld.

evening, in front of the city ball., It was or

was the largest 'concourse of people that I

.After the chairman had briefly, but partially
expressed the object of the meeting, the ven

cordial assent to the nominations, and spoke
in high terms of the talents, character, and po

son, • _
Then came the veteran' Demeerat pro

ducod to the assemblage, and was received
with every demonstmfion of. favor. The short
'speech of this timo-honored Democrat was in

• _ The nomination of General Pierce to the
highest office in this repub'ic is calculated to
awaken an interest in whatever is preserved
of his Congressional career, which he volun
tarily brought to'n elose_in 1842; ,at the com
paratively youthful age of thirty-seven. Par
tially to-gratifyn common curiosity about the
character of his. eloquence, of ja aeh is
said, and partially,toillustrate his views of the
disgusting system 'of political prescription,
with which the adatinistratiori of Gen: Hard
serlyis inaugurated, we copy the. lellowing
concluding, passage from a speech delivered
by him in 1842 in the Senate, advocating. the
adoption of a_reschition -cdrered by 31r.lte
chianti, e alling_upon the: President -
the names of persons:T.-alloyed from office, and
of those appointed since the'4th of garch, '4l
"Democratic administrations have, tamed
out sonie—many if 'you - please—political op:
points, to give place to political friends, and
on the single ground that they had the' right
to prefer their‘friends to their opponents. But
on this.point let me observe, that no' man Can
say, froth his individual knowledge, how it is
over the whole country; but here we can
know, an] here we do know; the fact' that , a
majority of•the subordinate officers in the EY
ecutive department have during the last twelve
years, been opposed. to General Jackson's and
Mr. Van Buren's administration.%
They were faithful and competent officers. ,
I believe; at all events they.were not reached
by ono spirit of proscription.- When:l-for the
last twelve years, your political friends have
enjoyed a majority of thoplaces,hoW have our
friends been treated now that the tables' are
turned I They , have not eseafted yont Sharper

chose, sir; for I will say- 7 what those friends
