-59, —Speech of Balte Payton, {whig) mLa.
Democratic Mom Mcettug,
A mill meeting or the Democracy of Allegheny
county,’ Was held in Pine township, on Thursday
last, at the house op William Peters, which was
distinguished for the unity of feeling and, enthusiasm
thatmarked the whole proceedings, , , - I
The meeting was organised hy calling Col. JAB,
A. GIBSON, to the chair, and the appointment of
Johr Layton, as Secretary. |
Jous J.. Mitchei., Esq., was hrst called to ad-
drew the assembled mask, which he did in a manner
■reflecting credit upon himself, and highly gralifjing
to the audience. Ctl. Samdei. W. Blacw folloncd,
in a very appropriate and cflcclivc appeal to lus fel
low-citizens; and he was succeeded byiCol.Gmsos,
(the. eh'nirtnan,) whose remarks were received with
the utmost enthusiasm by oil present,—he having
been almost continually interrupted- with the most
• deafening cheers. .
At the close■■of the meeting, -the air resounded
with the continued cheers of the multitude for Cass
and Butler, Longslrcth,.Painter,. and the County
• Ticket. .
Air. Bolts’ Bettor
. This gentleman has deemed it necessary M “*!«•
' fine his position,” in relation to the nomination of
Geni Taylor lor the Presidency; and, in doing so,
-he specks plainly and: frankly. He is not ono of
: thOB« (whatever political sms he may have to an
swer for,) who con forsake old friends, or discard
principles which he has honestly contended for ns
true ; however strongly.he. may he opposed by.the
: • mercenary and unprincipled, whose-solo end and
aim is to secure for themselves power, at any haz-.|
■■ nrd, and regardless of the means by which it must ]
: he attained. Mr. Botts’ letter is long,' piquant, and
..; to the point. We can only make a brief extract
I have not yet said 1 would not vote for General
■ 'Tavlor. If there is no regular organized ticket in
'.'■■■ ..7: -.Virginia for Mr. Clay—and I presume there will not
/ be. for l fear lhero is not whig spirit and .energy
enough left in the State to .get up one-I certainly
. shall vote for him. .* . * * ... _
: The truth is, and it cannot bo disguised, that Gen.
: ' Tavlor has had bad advisors. If he had relied on
the great whig party, and struck for the whig vote
only, and not “spread his net to catch birds ol evc
ry feather,”, he would have bodn elected without
-■ difficulty or doubt. There would then havo been no
, . . .disposition to bring Mr. Clay forward in the brat in
stance, and still lessto.havo opposed-his election
' after he was nominated; and if he is not elected now,
he has nobody to blame but himself .and those by
whoso advice he has been governed. : But whether
. -in the language of the Frenah people to Louis
V- Philippe—“it has coke too eat,;’ is a.question
' yet to bo solved. I apprehend it has. . •
But why are wo left in the dark upon any other
subject?: Wliy arc we not permitted to -know;what
are Gen. Taylor’s viewsof the Wilmot proviso? Itis
■r very evident that every press and every man at the
north that supports Gen. Taylor, does it .on the
ground that he will not, and is pledged not, to veto
that measure. Mr. Webster, Mr. AsSrnun, Mr.
' Corwin, Mr. Baldwin, Mr. Truman;Smith, Thad
■■■■Vw 'dens Slovens, Mr. Caleb Smith, (who has re--
'■■'■'""■pealed Tn his speech in Cincinnati, that he was
assured By the Hon, William Ballard Preston, of
■: ‘ • Virginia, that he would not veto at, and thatlic would
i :' 1 ; : be sustained in the south if ho signed it,) all lake
that ground) while it is equally certain that at the
; couth lio is generally and universally sustained, on
■ v - - the ground that he is a southern man,; a slaveholder,
• and that he wilt veto it. Now I say, in tms caae, ,
■ s both sections of the country; cannot be tyght* and
oneortho othermustbe and tup only way
■ -.. -■■'to avoid It is.for Gen. Taylor to say what.be will do.
.. The people are entitled to know it.before they vote,
■, ;■■■;. I think, perhaps, too much importance is attached to
■ tins Question) both north and south; but that is their
■■'business, vlfit is of half the importance that they
ascriho to it, the fact ought to he known. * ; *.

the houce. If it should, docs any reasonable man

From eYeryjhirnp, amlTrom all their presses, f,c
Whigs havobcon sending forth bitter and, clamor
ous denunciations against the exercise of the °
power.” All their orators, great andsmall, be ow ;
lustily in opposition to the “ one man p->o'<r. *°y

this conservative power, engrafted into the ops•*?

because n 'runs counter '.O-.he will cf the mnjonty,

They for»ct' to tell.their-. admiring friends, that the
great and godd George Washington-presided over
that Convention, aad;voted in favor; of estabhshmg
,he qualified negative of the-President.
get to say that Benjamin Franhlin, Thomas Mifflin,
Robert Morris, and other.: distinguished Pennsylva
mans, were also members of that Convent,on. Why
do they not stale the fact that Washington-himself
cierc, ed that power t Why unmindful of the fact
that'Madison exercised it, and that the illustrious
Jackson sated tho country by his celebrated veto of
the bill re Chartering the Bank of the United States.
But to the subject mow immediately nndet.consider-.
ation. Tliii Horii Walter Forward, the most distin
, guished Whig in Allegheny county, in his speech at
MtFnJdcn’s warehouse, 0,1 tho lJih inst., spoke as

Now let Us turn to ihe other tide of tin's beautiful
picture. The same Walter Forward was a member
or thc RdfimU Convention of Pennsylvania,: which
assembled at Harrisburg, on the 2d of .May, I 53?..
.....25.00
St».(W
Tlio ol'jCqt of ill st Convention .was to. rerise on.
amend the Constitution of Pennsylvania.
On Friday, Jimo Oin, 1537,. the Report of the
Committee on the 22d section' of the Ist Article,
containing the veto .power, being under considcra
ti„n in Committee of the Whole, Mr. Forward, of
Allegheny, rose and said. (See Debates of the I’a.
Reform Convention, vol. ll,psgirSOG.)
Walter Forvvnrtt oullie ‘VOno Blass eo\v
«r.” Its.Jnne, ISM
« When lie (Mr.' Forward,)• etmejo tins Conven
lion, he. liad not expected to lie called npontto listen
to oris attack upon the qualified negative of the gov
ernor, or to tcitntse any attempt . to expunge « /™»‘
the Constitution. .He had heird: no complaint Irons
■any nqarterof the Slate against the exercise of that
power by the Governor ; nor was he aware ol any
question having.been presented to the people for
their consideration, which had elicited trout them
any espreision of feoling'condemnatory of the ex-*-
ercise of that power. He really,thought, that at
least nine-tenth's of'the Convention hod been taken by
Surprise, whenthe attack torts made on THIS SAI.C
-TAIIY PROVTSinif X)F= THE CONSTITUTION.
For himself, he could say that he had nut the flight
est anticipation, of such a movement being made
here. They had heard much denunciation against
the slower, hut no nnAroxs why it should, be ta
ken away. He HAD ALWAYS THOUGHT THAT COUBSE
A BAD ORE, WHEN MEN WERE USABLE TO GtVE-A
BEASOH TOR THE EAITII THAT IS IN THEM. He Would
say, then, at once, that it mas not enough far him—
that it ivas -alleged, or supposed, or believed, that]
this power had been copied from the British govern- ,
ment He repeated, lhat.it was immaterial to him,
I that gentlemen took the trouble to look to France
or England, in order to find out whether a power in |
I our Constitution was copied from them. Ho was ;
I notso prejudiced as tb'rojcct anything that " as good,
i because it might have happened that something like
j tt not the idcnlicaf thing itself—roriEted in Great i
Britain. If gentlemen would go thusfarthey might
pgb further. And, if their argomeut was good for
this point, if was good for every other. They might,
1 with a good reason, make the same charge m reler-
I once to the Seriate, as being a copy of the House of
Lords in England. Indeed, to pursue the matter
further, they might just os, well assail the House of.
Representatives., on the same score, and as being a
I very servile enpiiof the House of Commons. And
. thus,in fact, iiiey might dispose of the whole gov
rcrnincnt of the, Commonwealth. It might he, that
this branch of the Executive power was taken from
England. But,what of that ? What was THEnE,
he would, enquire, in the veto power that was
SO REPULSIVE TO THE FEELINGS OF SOME CESTI.E
-HERt In Great Britain, the power was exercised
in virtue of a high hereditary right. Tlio King was
a King: by birth , and not by election. He held his
l office in despite of the people, nnd for life. But the
peopl e/6C the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania elcc
! md their Chief Magistrate every three years. THE
PEOPLE*CONFER TIIF. POWER on him, and he
I was responsible directlt to THEM for the proper
exercise of it. In'the one case, the power was ex
I ereised by o Chief Magistrate, whojnhcrited it, nnd
was irresponsible to the people for the manner in
which he might use it. But, in the other esse, the
Chief Magistrate was elected, and held his office
undent severe responsibility. What distinguishes
the Senate of Pennsylvania froni the House of Lords
is, thatiwhilo tlio latter is an hereditary body, and
not accountable for its doings, the former is an
elective a sembiy, and net under a very severe re
sponsibility to: the people, whose representatives
they arc.
In the first instance, the power is hereditary, and
is held without responsibility, but here the Execu
tive power is elective, and is ,held under more re
sponsibility. Does the gentleman fin'd any thing
like the veto power ns hero exercised? It can be
sot nsidc by the veto of twothirds, There it is un
qualified, nnd tho king may resist tho whole of the
legislature. Let us look a little into the argument
in favor of expunging this practice from the Consti
tution. Will any roan undertake to dictate a Gov :
ernment a priori for any people? • Is.not Govern
ment formed on experience ? . Tho world is wiser
now than it was eighty years ago, and shall we go
back in tho career of improvement, nnd overthrow
a system which has been pbactically beneficial,
for Tirti. sake -of A theoretical ..coop ? This pro
vision of the Constitution has been tried far forty-seven
years, and has never been complained of. Is
any great evil to he apprehended from it ? None is
pretended to be anticipated. The argument against
it wad altogether speculative, and rested on
some IMAGINARY good. No one .pretended thnt the
EXERCISE of the power WAS PERILOUS, nnd lie
[Walter Forward,] thought, that it was something
to say in favor of a principle that it had stood the
'test of forty-seven pears, and that the OBJECTIONS
TO IT WERE UNSUSTAJNED BY A SINGLE
FACT; But, it was gravely ,asked, why shnll the
.majority ofthe people he deprived of the power of
deciding every thing ? Shall not the majority rule ?
BUT 'THERE! WAS NOTHING in the YETO
which prevented the. MAJORITY 'from ruling.—
This .'was not a question whether tho majority ofthe
people should'rate, but whether a majority oT 133
then should fplc a.miilion and a half, and iri.opposi-.
.tion to the deliberate opinion offitE only,man .in
THE GOVERNMENT WHO IS THE REPRESENTATIVE OF
THE .whole people.--. The people certainly have a
right to- establish check's over their owd representa
tives. --Are the Senate aiid House of Representatives
the people ? They are the agents of the* people,.
L arid are bound by their letter of attorney, Shall
.not ,the .people Jay restrictions upon their own’
agents 7' -Was there ever n Government in which
there was ‘a'shadow of liberty,- where there' were
no rcatrictiorlß.on the Representatives ofthe people?
: Tf tl,c whole sovereignty .of the country [continu
ed Mr. Forward,] was left to the Legislature; with

He is the only man who is pledged to the pro

show that there is no DANOEn op a combination or.

Has any wrong ever been done.by the. Governor
to the people of the State ? ’ls there wry danger
that hio powor will.be exerted lo the injury of the
public interest ? V In ISIS, the Governor put his veto
on the hill chartering the thirty hahkal The next
year the Legislature passed a bill incorporating forty
banks.
This bill the Governor vetoed, nnd the Legislature
passed by a vole of two thirds. Hut that majority
■a/ two-thirds did NOT represent the people of Penn

jority of the ’people, if taken at the polls, would
have been against the law j rind as a. proof Of it, Si

The New Orleans Courier commented severely,
on its appearance, upon the “Apology dijGcneral
Taylor,” and among olbor things: intimated that
its author was Colonel Bliss.. .This is denied) and
the editor is told " that it was not written by Cpl.
Bliss but by Colohef BofliU.” No one pretends in
New Orleans that it was written by General Taylor,
who in it, indeed, admits that he is not the writer
of former letters which he signed and acknowledges.
These he speaks of fla (t leitcrs whicli rcconily ap

My dear Major— r Your highly esteemed letter
of the 28th of November last, accompanied by one
from Col. Wynn j of Lafayette county, Ark., to you;
of the same month hasjujt reached me. While I
feel, much flattered as well as proud Tor the Col’s

especially for the. handsome: manner he has been
pleased to notice ihe'uame, accompanied by the
proffer of a fine highbred charger, m/i/cft, !,regret to
say, such is the difficulty of getting an animal of that
description to this place, or farther west, without
injury, and the uncertainly of his finding mo in this,
section of-country, even were I to make pic attempt,
and should. I succeed in getting him brought here;
and were I to'order him to my plantation,' fie might
bo neglected, which would he. to mfc a source oi
such mortification, as well as in the event of injury
in getting him hero, as to compel me to decline the
Col’s kind and disinterested offer, ■ for it’.’itVA lam
duly grateful, and which fcannot he forgotten by me.

Thue Native Spibit.—A ftw. days ago, a man
who is supposed to have .been born in this country,
called at the door ofthe Mayor’s oiTice, Allegheny,
and demanded admittance;. He said he. woa a Na-;
tive, and had been indulging m a native beverage,,
and came all the way from Pittsburgh to throw his
custom into the hands 'of a Native-Mayor, “for
(said he,) Mayor Adams is an Irishman, and I won’t
patronize him.” He was very cleverly thanked for
bis partiality, and bis case was attended to.
JCr We saw a lad, about ten.years of age; in the
Mayor’s Office, a few evenings ago, who was want
ing to he ehipped-off'to the city farm..' His mother
was to be sent there, becaaso she could no longer
earn a living in the city by her labor. Wo suggest
that some benevolent man or society should take this
little fellow, for he possesses good natural talent, and
wpuld no doubt pay a protector well. . The
