in and beauty. The dressing too was much |
of it gargeou*. Any man,-up matter how aged, or

coheourso of people, aod indeed there are but few
, , bon who -could .thus fill the chamber. Mr. Cal*

they would uoi'chain.bur living body to a Mexican
corpse, by annexing Mexico to the Untied States.
Thare is no prelude or peroration to what Mr Cab
tfounwyi. He jumps at once into the very being
of his,subject, and when hejhasclosed, you have
xhe end ‘of'hi* speech. ’ Hisjspeech to-day is not an
«a*y ono to answer, and bust add great weight to
Abe general opposition to the war. “I cannot, op*
•-prove nor can I-support Unsaid Mr. Calhoun,“re*. 1
y yarding it as m war unnecessarily commenced, as

greatly endangering our; free InstitutionsT An
- j. opinion like thLv from a man bo eminent os Mr.
' '• ’ Calhoun, it seetp* to me should have great weight
. -with his political friends. ! The Administration was
:• addressed with great eartnkncss and effect,—and
,' .the question put to the i phrty Senators how they
- - ’ . could, disavowing a wnrof conquest, as they did,
. : . jposh the Government jinto the inextricable en*

The speech was not long, nol mcre imleed than

Mr. Hampton and the War.
Te til Siitou of c*» F*Usbvrs\ GtuiUti
At a time like this when our country is passing
, through a fearful crisis, and when our wisest and
I ablest statesmen apprehend the direst results it be
| comes the people to watch with jealous caretumess
I the and opinions of tbeir public servants, to
whom they have commiu'ed tho immense responsi
bility .of repre*enting their interests and wishes
I in the great council-of the nation. . "With Uiis view
I have collected from the National Inteligencer of
1 last Tuesday, some proceedings in the House on
| Monday id reference to the Mexican "W ar.in which
the part taken by phr representative, Mr. Hampton,
I is of exceeding interest to the people of his district.
} Mr. Hudson, ofMassachuscttes, having moved a
j resolution,’that the committee on Military Atfairs
be directed to inquireinto the erprdimeyot request
inglhe President to withdraw our armies to the east
I side of the Rio Grande, to enter upon a treaty of
I peace making the desert# of the Nueces our bcun
-1 dary,—a motion was made to lay it on tho table, on
j Which the yeas and nays were called, and the
1 motion to lay on the table was lost by a vote of •>

and Mr. Hampton voting in the affirmatively"

■ I ,n oVjed to amend the amendment, by adding
l “*'»crrur uniuxt-wnnVyoru/ uumnstitv-
Jfrnalg begun by tie P> r.idrrU of the Vniud States?
On this amendment to the amendmrntthc veas and
navs wern called,’r.ad it was parried by a vote ot
Ss*to 61. Every Whig ia the House voted for it
except Hon. Moses Hampton, the Ilebrespnlaliye
from this district, whose nanie is recorded, with 60
Locoioccs,' in the negative. I have no remark to
make upon this,strange vote, except that I am
greatly disappointed. 1 sincerely supported Mr.
Hampton, believing that ho would truly represent
the whig* of this district Whetbcr'be has done
so, 1 leave your readers v» jp-’ ”-j, but I cannot think
that in regard to the war, i!. v, .il'erfromtheirbrclh
ren throughout the Uim W.
The sentiments expressed by our correspondent,
are but an embodiment of the feelings of every
Whig wlo ba« heard cf the defection erf their Rep
resentative, at the commencement of a career that
might hive been an honorable one. It is not alone
n fee line cf anger that has been caused by this un
expected desertion of a Whig Member, bat there
.Is.oae of deep son-era', that bo in whom confidence
was entire, should thus deceive his friends. Had
there been a shade of doubt about the course at
Mr. Hampton, his desertion wonld have been less
feh, but to have one who, a few week* ago, with
manly independence, said that bad he been iu
Congress when the attempt was made to declare
that War existed by the net of Mexico, be would
have voted nay, reversing hia opinion so soon,
may well cause Whigs to ask. Who among us it
true? The indelible stain that never fails to mark
• oa e who thus abandons bis constituents, is ah his
own. It is not the Whigs of Allegheny County
who have stultified themselves and abandoned
their .honor..- - They.still can look their brother
Whigs of the limna in the free, and’say we have
not done thi^—we are still the keepers of our pwo
honor, leave' our Representative in tie hands
of the party whose dishonor be has mads his own.
While the Whigs regret the opOstacy of their
Member! upon this cardinal point, there is reason
for congratulation that he bah declared himself so
early in the Session. During his continuance in
Congress, they will feel their district « misrepre
sented, but it will make them more cautious for
the future. The next Representative will be a
man with & head so clear, and a heart so honest,
that the end of a short journey, and the change of
scene will not cause him to forget that he was
sent by an honorable Whig constituency, whose
principles are alike in all places, and under all cir
cumstances.
In continuation of the history of Mr. Hampton's
abandonment oftlie Whip uponone vitalpoint, we
copy from the Post of Friday, the warm welcome
its conductors give their new ally. . Like other men
who feel called upon to abandon their political prin
ciples, he has found it necessary to go farther than
the farthest, and attempts' to make up for age in
service, by, “brilliant deeds” at the commencement
of his servitude.
The War with Mexico.—Mr. Hampton's
Position Defined.
Among the various proposition* that have been
presented to the Home-of Representative* at
Washington, on the subject o£ or connected with,
our affaire in Mexico, the following, (submitted by
Ibe Hon. Moses Hampton,the Representative from
this District) i» hot the least interesting. The pro
position was submitted on Monday iaal, but was
laid over for future consideration.
U’e are pleased to see fueh ground as this occu
pied by Mr. Hampton,because it virtuollysustains
all the leading principJes'contendcd for bythe rnwl
sterling Democrat* The following is the preamble
and resolution referred to:-

sufficicntly wcll versed-in international law, and
the constitution of our country, to know, that the
Stale* whicu may- he formed of that territory, can
not be any other than fm States from the facts
that slavery is not recognized among the pwpfe
of M6iico; that a conqueror has no right to change
the organic laws of a conquered people'; unil that
if this right were recognized,’ our Constitution,
give*’to Congress no power whatever dyer this
subject His preamble and resolution, in ; addition
to other commendable features. clearly opposes the
Federal heresy more recently known by the name
of the Wilmat Proviso. Let Mr. If. but-adhere,
throughout, to the principles clearly deduciule from
his proposition, ana he will nnd himself acting with
the great body of the Democratic party. ;
Comment is unnecessary. What the uniitTd tor*
ces of loco focoism failed to do, has been accom
plished by the one who was selected to fill the post
of honor. A loco foco. member has been elected
by whig voles. ,He has shown his willingness to
sacrifice the honor of the Union, and of the whig#,
to the loco loeos upon a cardinal principle, and we
hare nojguarantee that he will not abandon the
honor and interests of his condiments when inter
nal policy is the subject of debatp. The
will abandon, no doubt,' with the jumc facility with
which he. has abandoned the whig position on the
origin ofthe war, and in relation to the conquest
of Meiico. ; !
Sketch of Mr. Colhotth’e Speech.
Mr; Calhoun on thedth inst,umde the speech so
lone anticipoled, in relation to our Mcxjcnn policy.
His Resolutions having been read,; lie said.in
substance, that in ofleriug to these reset
lutions he had been governed bylhe reasons which
induced him to oppose the war. His original oil
position to the war he did not intend farther to al
lude to than to explain bis present position. He
opposed the war then, because he thought it un
necessary, and could have been easily avoided.
After the war had been sanctioned by the Govern
ment, he endeavored to give that directiou to >t
which would as much as possible avert the calam
ity. The motive which prompted these Ucsolt*
lions was neither to strengthen the Executive |
the opposition. He should speak with
and independence, and us became a Senar j® ,
had nothing to ask from the Govemiuei;' or m,m
HcTwLhed now, as ul the lust sc.-* 01 ’- to • ulvo *

alluded in sontc.dclail t<» bit pre
-■yoefenstve iine, and the good results which
aid grow out of it.. The tnen who had lost
.eir lives would have been sufficient lo huve sc
.-tired nil the line, and the interest of the tnonev
expended would have paid the e<jst. Mr. Cal
houn nrgticd that this would be the ipoliey.of the
Government now. and .that there were stronger
reasons than «m for Us adoption.' jLast year the
Government wits in « flourishing condition. Tlic
money market’ was cosy; our brtttdstuiTx were
shipped to Europe in consequence .of the famine,
but the fact \vus different now.; \Ve might get men,
but we could not get money. '
Mr. C. said he hod convened with on intelligent
gentlemen who ought to know, and his opinion
wua that for a Loan of ferny rhilHnns,\\e could not
get more limn ninety, whichwas equal to seven
per cent. A war of conquest wasdlravowed. but
it was certain the ‘"more successful the war wa
the more certainty there wus; that there would be
conquexL
The vigorous prosecution of the vynr would de
feat all we disavowed. Wc disavow the natiuats
ily—<he seperato existence ul' Mexico. The sov
ereignty of the people would be tratHti’rrcd to u .
and Mexico blotted from the list of nntums. The
President proposed that all the factions m MV*xk‘ i
sluuild be put down, and the cllicet of this wals
ttnictinn to Mexico. '
Mr. (1 said that a.freo and independant llrpuh
lican Government could not grow up under u eon.
eptered people. It might under t imriv power,
un aristocracy, nr a desjwti-ru, but m>l under u five
Republic. But tilts, tinder the progress of opinion,
was deemed an obsolete uica. He protested ut
terly against building up any Government in Mex
ico with a pledge of protection. As Iltudostan,
had follcu into the hands'of Kngiand. from a mista
ken policr, no Mexico woujd fall ;into our own
hands. This']wns the inevitable cnasesjiience of ;i
rigorous prosecution, of and the IV«~
dent of the country was quoted to .prove this. All
who went forward in this war of conquest would.
be unwilling to cotne back. But if iwe meant in
demnity, why not take it oqw,—without expend
ing forty millions more' - AU future indemnity
, would- the-people'of Mexieo,and .urbaj.
would avail usTtTSeeuriag lljiitif If the war con-'
tinned, it would create burdens upon the people
! which neither the present nor a future generation
could wipe out. • !
Bui, continued Mr. C. sliuuld we drsin: con
quest?. Every message disavowed It, and the [in
gress of the war, therefore, • impeached the intrlh
gence, or tbei sincerity of tin* Government, lb
thanked the Army *ineerely;for whhl u had done,
but he feared our thanks would be confined t-i «»<ir
arms. But, as much ‘as wchad gamed-l>y arms,
we had lost in our civil aud political rights. IU
was sorry tyal our should lose any of
the reputation for moderation, justice and wisdom
which distingutshdd it ia Us curly times. We hud.
never before incorporated into our country any 4ujj.
the Caucassian race. If wc took the Mexican*,
we should, aud for the first Ume, take the Indian
race among us. We proposed to take them into
the Uniop. and to place them upon an equably
with the other race, He protested most solemnly
against it. How could we associate with our peo
ple this mixture of Indians- and half bloods? if
the thing was done it might be the end of our
rare.
Before so sensible a body as the Senate, he need
not prove that the conquest of free Staten was hnv
tile and dangerous to our Institutions. All exam
ples proved that the people; u-ho conquered free
States were in turn conquered. The
Union would become imperious, and its patmiMgc
overwhelming. All powerwould bekxbred in the
