-ed his:devious political career,--tbostt who
have known him long -altd well,. to some
of its remarkable points- • •
;First we will take the, anti-elarery, side of
•
this I•-- - '- •
• speech and see how itccorresponds with
ail put life. He stated before the Conven
.
lion that he considered the qUestion, 9L Slit
yery, in its Present attitude,as entirely above
-every other, and he Was willing to drop eyery
'• iltiag else anl sunk° battle upon this alone.
He deemed it theduty of all patriots to join
in the fray, and Om no rest to, the political
Elements pi k - slavery question should be
settled ! Ile said Le was an earnest free in.:-
der in-principle, but was Willing to forego
his feelings on the•Tatlff question till slivery
~
should be attended to, and he most earnestly
, exhorted his fellows in the . Convention to
sh O w the same self-sacrificing spirit l . Ile
' said_ the Dernoc'ratie party cow did not hold •
I
to one.single principle that °nee distinguish- ,
, ed ;" that noble ell, party."
In 1850- the,Fuaitive Slave Law was pass
, 0
ed, and we remember that a great. indigna- i
tion meeting Was held in Montrose soon af- i
ter, in which a large amount of surplus in
dignation teas ejected from several gentle-
Men: And we remember too, that it was an
nounced in that meeting that~'Judge Jessup
had been invited to be present, but declined
on 'the around-that it would be improper for
e
him toltake part in such a 'meeting because
-of his position on the Bench ! It will'. thus
be seen that be -was not very much indig
nant, nor very greatly alarmed then, al;" the
encroachment's of the Slave 'Power,"--not -so
-much so as to, forget his nice sense of proPri
ety as a Judge. A short -time . after th‘s—
some eighteen montbs-e-Judge Jessup went
into the Baltimore Convention as a Delegate
to nominate:General Scott for
,the Presjden-''
cy, and here he showed his hand on the Sla.
very question. He made a speech 'there,
pledgieg himself; and the northern Whig par
'ty tb the South. He endorsed. the Fugitive
Sinve Law' in ;his speech, declared that it
ebouldhe eieeuted,•and soled for Resolutions
endorsing it. in the strongest _manner.. He

and foreignisions which had leen battingl

He very' suddenly became, profoundly yens- i

tar Judge Wilmot fee , ling - that hiaoffic
ial conduct and integrity has been assailed
by publications in our paper, we desire to say,
in-justice to him, to the ipublio and to our
self,: that we did not 'intend to itrißfgn
.the
integrity of Judge .Virilmot'as' a matt,. nor to
charge upon him corruption, partiality or
political bias in the discharge of his respon
sible public duties. We have seen nothing,
nor do we know Of anything, in the conduct
of Jude) Wilmot, to Warrant such a charge.
The publications complained of, were ha s ':

Bret anything therein', contained reilect l .
