'ln 1841, soon af'er the Tatiff bill was adopted, the
Whigimembers of Cong , ess in passing through Phila
delphia, were feted and flattered for their conduct du
ring, the session. Mr M'K g !firs ,of this state, replied
for them, and took occasion to compliment ST•NLEY,
of North Carolina, for his vote in favor of the Tariff:
••Thist man," (said Mr Mc K. speaking of Stanley,)
'"was restrained from voting for the Tariff bill by the
feelings,rmd almost the direct instructions aids [ whir, ]
constituents. But when he saw that the vote
of the Speaker would KILL THE BILL, he forgot
all, himself, his ptivate views. his sectional prejudices,
he gave his vote, and thus saved the Bill."
"Saved the bill "—and from whom? From the
Vandal hands of the Locidocosl From the rude as
souks of President Tyler? Oh, No: Mr M'Kennan,
a prominent whig, thanks Mr Stanley, another whig
leader, for saving the Tariff Bill from the murderous
intentions of Mr Speaker WHITE, a still g-eater whig
gun, and the friend and neighbor of Henry Clay—the
- organ through which Mr C. now writes letters to the
Wilk. Mr White ems determined, according to Mr.
MeKerman. to "KILL THE BILL." and Mr Stanley.
disregarding his private feelings and his sectional pm.
jodieee, wbirh, of course, woad(' have led him to follow
Mr Wntra's lead, 'saved the bill,' from his fellow
Mr White.
And yet the whips of Allegheny county have the
seenderioni effrontery to pot forth the assertion the' the
present Tariff was 'supported and carried in Congress
by the whits.'
We have produced evidence from the record of votes
in. Congress, and from the . mouths of the whig leaders
themselves, to show the falsity of this setsumptionpand
we now fearlessly charge the whig leaders with seek

SKETCH OF MH. N SOCLAKF ' S REMARKS.
Mr. MAORAW being loudly called for, took the
stand and spoke in substance as follows:
My Fellow Democitii la—You are here to-night to
respood to the nominations of the Democratic. Nation
al Convention, and you have, by this immense outpour
ing, most nobly ond triumphantly responded.
Your presence here to-night advises our Federal
whig opponents to dispel their hopes of discord and
disunion in our party; it tells them that we have bui ied
and forgotten all personal and sectional feelings about
men. and are united and determined to battle manfully
for the principles of the good old Gallia. Nothing
now mars ocdisturbs onr harmony; we are brick main
into line—anti as rank and file, with our chosen
candi
dates. POLK. and list-LA= the one the cherished friend
and neighbor of the illn.triuns JACKSOI, the other
a Viet ted and dial irri;shcd Penn ylvanian, are rea
-1 dv far the c•mtest. Thi. united manifestation of *p
probotism on our part has .bread) dismayed and con
'fused our enemies.
It is but one faint voice, my friends, of the thousands
which have already gone forth in response to the hap
py result of the delibet at ion of the convention. Every
hour is big with the joyful intelligence that the democ
racy of the c..uitry are'satisfied with the nominations.
A democrat from Westmoreland county, to the kind
ness of whose fair daughters you are ii;lobleti for this
beautiful hitnner, the motto of which urges you
ONWARi), inform* us that the, gallant democracy ,:f
that sterling County. are delighted with the nomina
tions, and will not compromise for any thing less
TIMES. THOUSAND 0/ A MAJORITY. The great BP..s-
Tosr, when he heard of the nomination of Col. Petit,
exclaimed—he don't swear, my friends. as does the
idol of the Whig party—set down :Missouri for a ma
jority dry( TMOU,S AND in his favor. * *
The Whigs will endeavor to convince you 'that the
Tariff policy will be endangeted by the election of Col.
Polk. They are now at work to make that the great
question of the campaign—what claims has Mt. Clay
upon the people of this district for their support on
that question. In 1833. when Gen Jackson, assisted
by Col. Polk, was endeavoring to settle the twill upon
a reveuue basis, that it might be permaneut—that it
might be separated from theexcitement of political con
tests—that it should no longer be food for the insincete
politician, Mr. Clay intruded himself unceremoniously
upon the legislation of Congress, with whatl—with g
high protective measure? Noc he abandoned that—
withsomething permanent and reliable?—no; but with
the Compromise Bill—that measure which Mr. Den
ny denounced as a surrender of the great tariff princi
ples;
that measure which you hays been taught to ab
hor and despise by whig speeches in this old build
ing--w measure, my &Mork, which postponed health
ful legislation in 1833, the proper' time for action on
the subjectefor nine years. This was all done thin
Mr. Clay might be called the great pacificator. Well,
what was the conduct of the whig party in 1840
They elected Gen Harrison President, in the face of
his declared opinion, that ,e was in favor of the corn
promite et, and never would agree to its being alter
ed or repetded, as expressed in a letter to some citi
zens of Zanesville, Ohio—and John Tyler for Vice
President ; who, solitary and abuse voted against the
force bill in the Senate, and who always was set down
ns an anti Tariff man—so much for this- great whig
party; so much for their exclusive tarif pretensions.
Let us for a moment look at the conduct of I%r. Clay,
on this subject. When the whig party came into pow
er, under Harrison and Tyler, Mr. Clay was in the
United State* Senate. Ife was styled' the Dictator of
that body, and his conduct there will justify the ap
pellation. re a few shoat days Gan. Harrison was no

Government, under the Constitution, fell upon Mr.

which Mr. Clot: defined to be " a splendid associtr

• Mr. Black rose, amid the plaudits of the audience.
and proceedvd to make a most effective speech. We
are only able to give the following very imperfect re
port of what he said:
Mr. Black. in opening, alluded to the remark of the
chairman, that a cloud had hung over the destiny of
the democratic party. The cloud wa+ n momentary
discontent; hut it. said the speaker, and all the clouds
that lowered upon our hopes, are now honied in the
deep bosom of the ocean of a general union. To the
disappointment and discomfiture of 31,11' opponent..
where schism wan hoped for, harmony and good feel
ing prevail: and we begin the contest with the MAP
promise of a glorious triumph. Over the length and
breadth of the country the democracy are united,—on
. broken they begin the struggle; unbroken they will
end it.
