These are small points, but aectracy le a great

painted, by Mr. Heisler, and the fixing of the trial
scene is very good. The Scottish music played
throughout the play was generally appropriate ;
the orchestra were ee constantly employed at it
that their rental habit of diving under the stage,
during the play, was necessarily in abeyance. In'
the first met, we were happy to see Dr. Ounnington

unable to enter. -To accommodate those in the street,
a Meeting was organized on one of the neighboring

by F. M. Adams, Esq., moving that Charles B. Trego,

SPEECH OF HON. DAVID TAOOART.
Iron David Taggart, Of Northumberland county, wee
the first sneaker introduced to the meeting. Ile had
crime Mistily, at the sacrifice of private husinems, `.O obey
the summons of the citizens of Philadelphia. It had
been tile gond fortune to make the first Curtin spe4oh of
the campaign. and he then promised to come wherever,
.he was wanted. He intended to ii all he could for
'Andy Curtin!? They had sentiments in common, and
hid worked together in many camnaigns. They. had
- gone through the campaign when Henry Clay wan the
,etendard-benrer. [Cheers.] It did him good to see the
'thrill that missed through the crowd at the mention of
that illustrious name. Henry Clay had been defeated
hr the hordes from foreign shores, who came to
live av tins us. [Cheers end laughter.l There
should be no Auditor defeats. They had the whip

Re had known Andrew Curtin a quarter of n century,
and in all thrit time, lie hover know any thing that made
him regret that he wee hi. competitor in the nominn
lion. Nothing can defeat him, eapeoially if the Chicago
Convention has sense enough to nominate a man who will
concentrate the Opnosition. There was no need to tell
them or lint hour life devotion to the .principles that
brought them together. and his etatmoh defence or the
claims of American induatry. 'there was no shame in
being beaten by such a man. He nailed upon the many
nohlb men who stood by his name, to transfer their
efforts to Curtueli banner. He never knew any trait in
the character of Mr. Curtin which made him ashamed
to be floored by him for thin nomination. As a boy he
could do northing front conic *motions to Cresco Moiety:.
As a man, he was one whose only fault was hie exeess
of good nature. By every consideration of personal fit
ness ha was entitled to support,. and no man need be
ashamed to support him. unless tt were some God.. for
silken „wrotel , who is or wan to ben postmaster or cus
tom-house officer under this DetnooratioAdministration.
In Centre county. where he resides, there is not a man
who does not love him. and whatever may he his colt:-
eal proolivitioe. there is not one who will deny his fitness
for the office. The speaker conoluded amid great ap
plause.

the germ of that contest which has been waging with
such fury, and With such a destructive influence, for
the I sat twenty years, map the peace, of this country.
southern gentlemen believed that as we protect the
free labor of the North, we discouraged the slave labor
of the South ; that their interests would suffer. because
theiecustotuers in England would not be able to pay
so good a prose for the cotton crop, In that
' way we came to make the.- comparison now
PO frequently made between the value of the
slave anu Unit of the labor of the white laborer who
in a free and Independent voter, and who has & family to
maintain. The doctrine of these Southern gentlemen
was. that if they paid twenty-five per cesium on a
piece of calico, or a penknife made at Sheffield. the•
saved for their cotton, and thus increased the value of
their slave labor twenty-five per gent. This was the
'doctrine of the gentlemen from South Carolina to-day.
It Is one of the doctrines and dogmas of the Democratic
tarty. that whatever the majority might agree upon, is
he doctrine that all of them are bound to support; and
further, it has so happeuedehat a great mass of the De.
menthe party to to be found in the States of the South,
and they of the North found that they must sustain thul
doctrine of else diminish Ithe value of white labor in
every free State of the Union. We all remember the
national enntliet we had upgn this 'subject. because
South Carolina said she would not pay the duties levied
upon her. . What a contrast between the behavior of
the President of that day, nod that of the old gentleman
new in thelPreeldential chair I The former swore ha
cliaradmistic oath, Itipplatere]—and said that while he
wan President the laws of the land would be enforced—
and muskets. bayonets, ,powder and dints—these were
his arguments. We hoer the old gentleman now to the
chair say, (when pressed to let the Leoompton bill
easel.' to a gentleman from Philadelphia, that if he re '
fused to allow its adoption," Alabama might go out of
the Union." [Laughter and ironical cheers.] Old
General Jackson had a very different answer to give
these gentlemen when they lifted Vie banner of revolt,

would he moat applicable to its pitizens now, whenithey
are called mien to vote for Mr, Curtin or his opponent.
' He remembered in 1841. after this tariff hod been in ope
ration for two years, while passing through venom por
tions of tie State, he hod seen hand-bills in glowing ea
ting. calling upon the Demonregy to rally for "Polk,

did. [Great laughter.] They got Polk. and they RO ,
Dallas; and this latter gentleman—forwhorn hn wished

lof the United States De would call to their memory
by going bank in this history to a period ineolving the
euestion of free and slave labor. Mr. Calhoun and
Mr. Tyler contrived a trusty by , which Texas was an

to be a member of the Senate in MO, when the tariff

As it was. the two Senators from Texas came into the
Council of the Upton. At that time Mr. Donegan.. in
the chair—that Mr. Dallas who 35 , 88 . elected by the De

upon the repeal of the tariff of '42, and it was
' a tie vote. In that event, the man who had been
elected by the cry of "Polk, Dallas, and the Tariff of
'42" woe called upon to give the casting vote upon that
great mibient, so closely allied to the vital interests' of I
Pennsylvania. [Mildness.] The rule required that he
should aye the reasons for his action, and while he was
inanely lee with this rule in hie peculiarly eloquent,
bland, and persuasive manner, General Cameron pro
duced some of these hard-bills. with the inscription of
" Polk, Pallas. and the Tariff of '42," and bung them up
in the lobby of the Senate, immediately in front of the
Vice President. [I aughter and applause Had Texas
net been annexed. the tariff would not have been re
pealed, end had Mr. Dallas been only, true, the tariff of
'42 would, in all probability, be a living law until this
day. The Demooratie party were induced to believe
that these gentlemen were lust es faithful to the princi

bugged, (to use that mist exuross hum bu g entirely

The people of this land have been led off into voting
against the interests of themselves and-those dear to
them. They have aided in levying a tariff to starve their
wives and children. for the sole purpose of raising the
Price of nogroea. The people sit Pennsylvania. in their
career of madness on this tariff question, had reminded
him of the Apostle's description of charity, " It hopeth
all thingli, believeth all things." [Great laughter.) A

friend from achuylkill. Mr. Campbell. insisted upon the
intreduotion of the tariff bill now before the Committee
