Our clomestio politica excite comparadvelplit tle attention, and If I should not bear the word mentioned until a month before the assembling of the next National Convention, I should be bet ter satisfied—l am convinced that when the pro ceedings of your Whig Slate Convention shall have been fully canvassed by the precut and pub- Ho speakers throughout .

Gen. Soot, if adopted by the Whip of • tbe rUnion, • cannot be doubted. To the moos of the Whigs of this State the entire section of your convention is gratifying and acceptable. It is in precise accordance with the tenor orpreviotut advices. Strange as it may coned; the most active friends and support ers of Oen. Sccitt in this State are Gov. Seward, Cov. Hunt, and the other leaders of the liberal seetion of the Whigs; while'the influential men of the other wing of the party also regard it as a settled thing, that be will be their candidate, and receive the electoral vote of the HMIs, if their united strength can give it to him. The fact is pretty well known that Gee. Scott, during the hmtCongress was "a compromise man," and tior:erted himself to prounre the adjustment which ea/finally adopted. know this from the fact that he personally and most urgently •solioited his friends among the northern members to vote for the Texan purchase andindemnity bills, the adinisaion of California and the organization of the territorial governments without the provisci, no the only effectual means, of averting civil war —I do not believe, however, that be was favora ble to the passage of the Fugitive Slave Law, or that he considered it any part tell. ad jcistment." In fact, the proposition for that law was not discussed, either openly or privately; to any extent, nmotig members of the Lower House, awl no apprehensions were generally entertained that it would or could pass, forty-eight hours before the perpetration of the net - Oen. Scott will uphold the. fugitive law as part of the laws of the land, but he must not be set down .as a friend of 'it, and is no doubt in favor of giving its opponents a fair chance to effect Its amend ment. .2 , 15 . 51 • tj.

I will briefly state them. At the close of the Mexican war the govern ment found itself' in ponession of half a million surplus • muskets, some of which were slightly damaged, but the greet majority were now, no. blemished and perfect. They ware neatly boxed up, and were in the best condition, nitro lk us good reason why these arms should not hate been kept at thepubliOarmories and arsenals for future use. But they were ordered to ie sold. What authority existed for this prOceeding Idu not know, but I know the sale was ordered. Oa the 27th . February, 1810, 80,000 of-these ' pieces_were rut up at auction in thiscity, and 80,000 of them were sold to Messrs. McCulloch dr. Cc for $l2 cash. These were all dunagol. The parties were to reci vethem'atonce.or pay the government $lOO a month for etonsge.:ti the name time 100 cuteness , and perfeatmuskets were put up and sold to the t came pieties f. , r cash, at $2.71, each. The sale - Van then starred, but the parelussers of the lots sold, offered (ho same price for the balance. Subsequently Gtu., Lane & CO, of thits city, the well known -ocean mall contractors, mode a private offer of f 52,80 apiece tor.-$276,000 new muskete, and the sale Was toade to them at that rricis, on . a credit of One year, and with the privilege of larriag them stored in the goternment depots fisr. that time. Their terms were not so good for tbiegON'ernmen , t Is . $2.76 for each musket. But cornet this late theCOntract tissuct been heft, the . 3nuaketa flare Rot been delivered nor paid for, tbotrAhitte limns of . the lilac named in the contract supired more than a year. ago, These '269,000 email arms, thus contracted to be Bold for $770,000; cost the war depart ment about 51,15.5,000. It may be sli that the be'et thing the 6 , mm:opera coald do was .to got rid of their useleis lumber On any terms. But it will be seen from the follswisg facts that it wee not best to throW them amp, Doi in foci to sell them at any conaidershlo sacrieme from tea tort. The government has three or four armories constantly employed in the productiOn of fro AMIS.

This right to secede is deduced from the ma- tbre of the Constitution, which. they say, is,a _ compact between sovereign States, who have mceserred their :whole sorereigtity, and there- . fore are subject to no supezior: that because they made the "compact, they, cuebreek it, whin, in their opinion, it hasbeen departed from by other '', '' States. Fallacious as this course of removing it, fit entitles State pride, and finds adiroMites in the holiest prejudices of those who have not stn- . died the nature of our Government imfßeitintlyto see the radical error on which it rests. * : The people of the United States formed the Constitution,' acting through the State Legida teree in making the compact; to meet and dis cuss its provisions, and acting in separate eon nations when they -stifled those prodeleam bet the terms used ill it 3 construction ahoy it to , he a government in which the reople of all the States collectively are represented- We are on rione in the choice of the President and Vice President.

When , chosen, they are all representatives of the Uni- , \ ted Staten not repreeentatives of the particular Efate from which they eome.

The Constitution of the tented States then 1 forms a governmmt. not a league: and whether it be formed by. compact between the States or in - any other manner, its character Le the same.— " It is a govern , .
