Big!er, with a copy of his speech on "The Stato of the Union," delivered in the United States Senate on the 21st Jan., for which he has our thanks. His public acts, of which this is one, we shall ex ercise the privilege of criticising just as wc would those of any other public man ; but in doing this, we shall endeavor to treat him with a due degree of respect. As a citizen, and in a social point of viow, we have always es teemed the Governor highly ; we arc free to S. B. ROW, IPITOR ASD PROPRIETOR. CLEARFIELD, PA.. FEB. 6, 1801. CALLING HABD NAMES. When Dr. Johnson called the fish-wife "an adjective," she was startled ; when he pro nounced her to be "a,preposition," she was dumbfounded ; but when he sternly added that, in his opinion, she was no better than "a conjunction," the pride of the market submit ted to the great lexicographer, and wept fierce tears at her first discomfiture. Sundry.Breck inridge editors take it for granted that the Re publican party is to be silenced in the same way that the fire of feeling can be quenched by a shower of subacidulous epithets, and the rock of conviction pulverized by reproachful fcelchings that the way to "conciliate" their political opponents, and persuade them into a "compromise," is to misrepresent their views, and heap upon them vituperative abuse. " Th editor of that highly delectable sheet, the Clearfitld Republican organ of the Breck inridge Democracy, and special apologist of the Disunionists displays an unusual facility in the use of nial-nomenclature and cxtraordi nary dexterity at perversion. In his last issue or two, he labors with unwonted zeal to con vince everybody in general, and wavering sub jects of his own party in particular, that the Republican organization is a conglomeration nf" it A Ktlttlnr ista " ftlilrtnilv rnrrtlnf mnietc " "British-hearted abolition hirelings," "jack alls," "hyenas," "hireling traitors," "fana tics," "hireling demagogues," and '.'coercion ists," with here and there a few "lazaroni," p!ug-uglies," "rip-raps," and "wooden nut meg, philanthropic gentlemen" thrown in by tray of making up a satisfactory variety. An examination of a few previous numbers would doubtless increase this singular admixture greatly, whilst a lull enumeration of the deri sive terms that can be found in an entire vol ume of that paper, would cause a severe strain upon the powers of the multiplication table. The same high and veracious (?) authority is also excessively anxious to make it appear that this "sectional party" is not only a dis reputable, but a very dangerous organization. If a moderate share of reliance can be placed in the accusations against the Republicans set forth by our np-town neighbor, it would seem that they "succeeded by a species of false pre tehees usually assumed by all demagogues and fanatics" that they " have been plot " ting treason against the country for the last thirty years" that their Representatives are determined to " roil on and sptead the ecu blems of revolution, anarchy and despot ism" that they havo adopted the cry of coercion aad the enforcement of the laws," only as "a pretext to bring about a bloody revolution as speedily as possible" that they have " conceived the unhallowed purpose of 'drawing the geographical line,' and thus by 'might to rula right,' or sink the noble old ship with all aboard." If all this were true, our party would be a rather unsafe "in atitution," we admit ; but, fortunately for the country, this is not the case. To a man, its members stand up for the Constitution and the Union, and neither defamation nor misrep resentation can turn them from the path of duty in the hour of their peril, nor induce them to countenance treason, even though it docs ajppear in the enticing guise of "secession." . Having evidently persuaded himself to re gard the phantoms of his fruitful imagination as solid realities, it is not at all surprising that the editor of the Republican should look around for some means to avert tho frightful calami ties of which he is so apprehensive. Being strongly opposed to "coercion," to the em ploy ment of austere raeasures,or to assnm ing an attitude that might appear threatening, we felt satisfied that he could ard would suggest some rcild and peaceful remedy. Nor. have we been ' mistaken in our anticipations. In his last is sue be says tho time has come when " these "hireling demagogues must be suffocated, ei- tber by a halter or tho Immaculate voice of the people." We have little doubt as to the efficacy of such a course of treatment ; but as the offenders can, by it, liavo a choice, it is quite possible that they may prefer the humane application of "a halter," to encountering the alternative of an "immaculate voice." - From what we have said our readers may, perhaps, form -a faint idea of the respectful terms in which the Breckinridge organ speaks of the Republican party, and the rare spirit of ''conciliation" which it manifests. We leave them to judge to what extent such a course and such language are calculated to bring about a speedy adjustment; when, aside from all this, the -Republicans, at every step they take in that direction, are told by tho apologists of secession that they "had to back down."

I admit that for him personally we entertain the best of feelings, and wo had hoped that, in tie hour of our country's peril, he would lay asido entirely the finesse- of the inflexible partizan, and adopt the moro commendable and endu ring policy of the patriotic statesman. In this we have been disappointed. Ill's speech dis plays none of that disinterested magnanimity which he could now, hen near the close of his public career, afford so well to use ; but it is characterized by that strict adherence to party views and party tactics, which marked his course and his speeches during the late Presidential campaign indeed, some of the expressions and arguments it contains will doubtless sound familiar to those who heard him on the stump last fall. For example af ter disclaiming any intention of "fastening the " responsibility" of the inauspicious events " of the last fifteen years," "upon this or upon " that party," he at Once undertakes to show that the "responsibility" of ourresent trou bles rests with the Republicans ; and for this purpose, repeats the old storj of John Brown's mad raid into Virginia, the stale charge con cerning the "Helper Book" endorsement, the origin of the "irrepressible conflict" dogma, and the fact that sixty-nine Republican Mem bers of Congress had voted for the "Blake Resolution." Having glanced at the piorai nent features of " unnecessary hostility" to the institution of African Slavery which Mr. Bigler regards as " the fundamental cause of " the imperiled condition of the country," and thus re-stimulated the leaven of prejudice and misapprehension that exists in the South relative to Republican-doctrines, ho coolly de clares that "the Southern people, to a great ' extent, believe that those dogmas are to be "carried out by the incoming Administra " tion" just as if he, in common with other leaders of the Breckinridge party, had not done all he could to creato and strengthen this impression. And how does it come, while such noble Southern spirits as Johnson, Clem ens, Etheridge and Gilmer are laboring to dis abuse the public mind in their own section, that he is so careful to repeat, in the speech before ns, the allegations which are the prima ry cause of the "southern people" coming to such conclusions 1 Why is it that Mr. Bigler indulges in such language as the following: "But, Mr. 1'resident, the organization ot a geographical party ; that organization against which Ueorge Washington warned his coun trymen.was the fatal day for this Republic. I have been in the habit of saying, sir, every where on the stump, that such an organi zation was inconsistent with the peace of the nation ; that a political association so hostile to the institutions of another sec tion of the country that it could have no re cognition and no members in the assaulted section, must necessarily be an agent of alien ation and hostility among the people. George Washington and Andrew Jackson both fore-4 saw this, and men on the other side should have heeded their warnings. It will not do to say that it was never intended to be a section al party ; that it is based on great truths that can be and ought to be universal. Sir, dis guise it as we may, the Republican organiza tion has had, and has now, but one vital spark of existence, and that is prejudice and hostil ity to admitted rights to the institution of slavery an institution recognized by the fa thcrs. I know, sir, it is said, in mitigation that Republicans never intend to exercise any unconstitutional right; thattheirpurpose isno to interfere with slavery in the States. But Mr. President, tell me when or where a Re publican meeting has been held, since the dawn of that party, where the impression was not left, either by its proceedings or in tho language "of its orators, that in some way or other the Republican organization was the agency through which, slavery was to bo abolished everywhere ? Is this the spirit of "conciliation," and i this the way to bring about an "adjustment ? We appeal to tho common sense of all impar tial men whether this is displaying the proper temper whether tubbing open old political sores, and making such unwarrantable asser tions as the concluding one in the above ex tract, is in the least calculated to induce an opponent to entertain any suggestion he may have to make. As a peace-maker a position to which Mr. Bigler seems to aspire he should have employed truth instead of misrepresenta tion ; and should have poured oil npon the troubled waters, instead of casting into them tho agencies of commotion. Impressed, as it is fair to presume he must be, with the deplorable condition of-the coun try, yet Mr. Bigler seems to think that it is not an herculean task after all to " avert the " impending calamities." It is not necessa ry, in his opinion, to expend " countless trea- sure" or to "shed rivers of blood." "It only requires that opinion, party and preju " dice should be mutually abandoned to attain " the priceless end 7" This is good advice, and very easy to follow ; bnt how does he do it lie asks the Republicans to make unlim- that we shall, for the present, notice. After urging that Mr. Crittenden's proposition or his own should be referred to the people, Mr. Big- er acknowledges that serious objections are made to such a step that it is regarded as "extraordinary," "irregular," and "without "warrant in the Constitution," and bv at tempting to answer these objections ou the ground that "the times are irregular," and that " the nature of the case requires extraordinary measures," he admits their force and correct ness. And yet, a few pages further on, he says: "My logic, Mr. President, is, that if " we are for the Constitution at all, we must " sustain every feature of it." W"e confess we are at a loss how to reconcile Mr. Bigler's " proposition," which sets aside at least one " feature" of the Constitution, with Mr. Big ler's " logic," which demands that " every fea ture" of that instrument mast be sustained! Perhaps his home organ can "illuminate" our obtuse understanding. Meanwhile, as the speech has been extensively circulated in this county, wo trust as many as possible will read it, and judge for themself ot its peculiar mer its. Having done so, if they can convince us that its distinguished author has by it estab lished a claim to the title of pacificator, it must be on the supposition that counter-irritants are more effective than soothing panaceas for tho ills to which he alludes. SECOND SPEECH BY MR. SEWARD. Mr. Seward on January 31st presented a pe tition to the Senate of the United States, sign ed by 38,000 Inhabitants of New York City, (in addition to the 25,000 heretofore presented by him, making altogether 63,000 signers,) praying that Congress would exercise its wis dom in finding some mode of adjustment of our present national difficulties. Tho special committee of the projectors of this petition accompanied it with some resolutions in which they recommend as a basis of adjustment the proposition known as the Border States plan, contemplating certain acts of legislation and amendments to the Constitution of a Pro-slavery character. Mr. Seward, after presenting the petition, addressed the Senate at consid erable length. He remarked that the Com mittee in charge of the memorial are a fair reprcsentetion, almost an embodiment, of the citizens who direct and wield the commerce of New York, "the commerce of a continent, and a commerce which this present year, ow ing to the distractions of the times, is put for the first time in a condition of proving itself to be the controlling commerce of the world." He remarked also that the memorial present ed by this Committee might be regarded as a fair expression of the interest which is felt by our commercial community in the great ques tion of the Union that in other countries, such a demonstration would commend obedi ence from the Government, but significantly added, that in this Republic, such was happi ly not the case. Here tho commercial inter est was but one of many the agricultural, the manufacturing, the mining, being equally po tential, and entitled to consideration. It is perhaps even more significant, that Mr. Sew ard, while commending the merchants of New York for their spirit of conciliation and frater nal kindness, should recommend them as he does in this speech, to manifest their devotion to the Union, not only by speaking for it, by voting for it, by giving money for it, but also by fight'ng for it, if all other means failed and fighting should become advisable. Neverthe less, Mr. Seward, in spite of this significant hint, holds to his expectation of a bloodless termination ot the crisis, and to the ultimate safety of "this great fabric of constitutional liberty and empire." A Convention of the peo pie, called according to the forms of the Con atitution, and acting in the manner prescribed by it, he thinks will give the country relief by the prompt adoption of measures which will show to the world how well and wisely a great, enlightened, educated, and Christian peopje can adjust difficulties apparently insurmounta ble. Notwithstanding these .pacific expres sions, and the general moderation and concil iatory tone ot Mr. Seward's speech, his re marks about fighting for the Union aroused the wrath of Mr. Mason of v irginia, who, in his usual arrogant manner, declared that Mr Seward's speech meant neither more nor less than battle, and that his "honored State'? was ready for the fight, and was not to be deluded by silly propositions to amend the Constitu tion. Mr. Seward replied with force and spirit,- exposing Mr. Mason's misrepresentations, vindicating his own position, and defending the rights and power of the Union. The de bute was continued with unusual animation and great length, Mr. Hale of New Hampshire, Mr. Douglas, and the irrepressible Wigfall of Texas, taking part in it. ,HrE Hodse, Ridgwat.

His card a"ppearrtnmrdTertr3ltJg columns. ited "concessions;" but what "opinion" or " prejudice," and how much of " party," does he propose to "abandon ?" We have yet to learn of his offering to throw aside an iota of either; on the contrary, he adheres most per sistently to what bis organ in this place is pleased to call "The Crittenden-Bigler Propo tions," which embrace the territorial policy of the Breckinridge platform, and look forward to the acquisition of Mexico. Satisfied, as he ought to be by tbis time, that these cannot be adopted, why doea he not set the example of abandoning'? hi$ " opinion, party and preju dice," and advocate, with corresponding zeal, some other plan of adjustment say the Border States or the Adams t Proposition 7 To make iiii4 practice conform. to bis. preaching,, he should dp so without further delays : -Tber is only one other point in the ppecch Letter from Ma. Botts. Hon. John Minor Botts has written a most cogent and patriotic Union letter to his friends in V irginia, in which, after showing the madness of secession, ho remarks : "My earnest and urgent advice then, is, that Virginia should remain in the Union, demanding all her Constitutiona rights, the repeal of all unconstitutional laws or the declaration oi tneir nullity oy the Supreme Court and a just punishment for those who shall resist its decisions. Let her remain in, and, taking side with neither, act the part of mediator and peacemaker between the extremes ol both sections oi the country Recollect that those who now beckonjyou on to destruction, are the same advisers and lea ders that lured you on in 1S54, to insist upon the repeal of the Missouri compromise, which has brought you to your present condition. That was a grievous error of which you had timely warning, but to which you would not listen ; and those who warned you then were denounced as submissionists and traitors to the South, as they are now. Be not deceived by the same men again, who would now lead you into one ten thousand times more fatal : and do not hereafter forget that I . tell you now. when you give up your Union, you sur render your liberties, and tho liberties ot all who are to come alter you." The Great Robbery. It Is ascertaised that Mr. Floyd's whole acceptances were $0,900,- 000. Of these Mr. Russell and partners re turned about $3,000,000, first and last, and can account for half a million more. . It therefore appears that at least $3,000,000 are still float ing about, held by innocent parties, or were discounted by banks and individuals. Large amounts have been recently sent. to Washing ton fromNew-England. which were taken on the strength of Mr. Floyd's assurances, vouched in some, instances by Mr Toucey. Mr. Bai ley, who abstracted the bonds from the In terior Department, has never been examined before the Committee oi Investigation, and for legal reasons, which may appear berealter. The act of 1857, which is supposed to relieve witnesses of Congressional Committees from prosecution, will doubtless be pleaded for the benefit of some of the parties to tbis mammoth robbery. Lawyers already maintain that the indictment against Messrs. Russell, Floyd and Bailey .for a conspiracy to defraud the Govern ment, is for a crime not known in the crimina statutes. They will all probably escape pnn ishment. : -: i:'; THE BORDER STATES ADJUSTMENT. A great many people do not seem to under stand the diflerence between the border States Adjustment, and the Crittenden Compromise. The-essential difference is respecting' the Ter ritory South of 36 degress 30 minutes, be tween the Indian territory and California. The border States proposition is : "That the line of 86 30 shall be run through all the existing territory of the United States; that in all North of that line slavery shall be prohibited : that South of that line neither Congress nor the Territorial Legislature shall hereafter pass any law abolishing, prohibiting or in anj way interfering with African slavery, and that when any territory, containing a suf ficient population for one member of Congress in an area of sixty thousand square miles, shall apply for admission as a State, it shall be admitted with or without .slavery, as its constitution may determine." Tbis is a negative proposition. It permits the operation of the existing territorial laws of New Mexico and California, pledges the non intervention of congress with the subject of slavery, and the admission ot States made out of it without Congressional induiry a9 to the subject of slavery. It is not satisfactory to the ultra politicians of the South, because it does sot commit the Federal Governmeut to their dogma of the protection of slavery in the territories. It would be acceptable to the moderate mon of the North and South for the same reason. Mr. Crittenden's scheme is as follows : "That in all the territory of the United States now held or hereafter acquired, situated north of latitude 36 30, slavery or involuntary servitude, except as a punishment for crime, is prohibited while such territory shall remain under territorial government. In all the ter ritory scuth of said line slavery of the African race is hereby recogvized as existent, and s'aull not be interfered with by Congress, but shall be protected as property by the departments of the territorial government, during its coutmu- ance." John U. Breckinridge says in a letter en dorsing this proposition, that hereafter acquir ed" looks to the conquest of Mexico, and con sequently to the establishment of slavery in it. Therefore those who support the Critten den Compromise, not only support the estab lishment ol a Federal Protectorate over slav ery, in tho only territory now held where slavery has the ghost of a chance, but, support the policy of conquering Mexico, for the very purpose of establishing slavery therein by the power of the Federal Government; and this, not that the relation of slavery itself, with any show of legitimacy, requires extention, but that tho politicians of the slavery section may increase their power, and use the General Government to prevent the preponderance in the Government, to which the Free States are entitled by their real weight and growth. NEW ADVERTISEMENTS. ANOTHER PROPOSITION. Id the House of Representatives at Wash ington, on the 1st inst., Hon. William Kel logg, of Illinois, ottered the following res olutions as a substitute for the recommenda tion of the Committee of Thirty-three. When they were read they produced quite a sensa tion. They are joint resolutions, proposing amendments to the Constitution, to be ratified in the manner directed by that instrument. j Article 13. That in all the territory now held by the United States situated north of latitude thirty-six degress and thirty minutes, involuntary servitude, with the exception of the punishment for crime, is prohibited while such territory shall remain under a territorial government ; that in all the tertitory now held south of the said line, neither Congress nor auy territorial Legislature shall hinder or pre vent the imigration to said territory of persons held to service from any State of this Union, when that relation exists by virtue ot any law or usage of such State, while it shall remain in a territorial condition ; and when any terri tory north or south of the said line, within such boundaries as Congress may prescribe, shall contain the population requisite for a member of Congress, according to the then Federal ratio of representation of the people of the United States, it may, if its form ol government be Republican, be admitted into the Union on an equal footing with the orig inal States, with or without the relation oi persons held to service and labor, as the Con stitution of such new State may provide. Article 14. That nothing in the Constitution of the United States, or any amendment there to, shall be construed so as to authorize any department of the government in any manner to interfere with the relations of persons held to service, in nuy State where that relation exists, nor in any manner to establish or sus tain that relation in any State where it is pro hibited by the laws or constitution ot such State, and that this article shall not.be altered or amended without the consent of every State in the Union. - Article 15. The third paragraph of the sec ond section of the fourth article of the Con stitution shall be aken and construed to au thorize and empower Congress to pass laws necessary to secure the return of persons held to service or labor under the laws of any State, who may have escaped therefrom, to the party to whom such service or labor may be due. Article. The migration or importation of persons held to service or involuntary ser vitude, into any State, territory, or place with in the United States, from any place or coun try beyond the limits of the United States or the territories thereof, is forever prohibited. The Southern and Washixotojt Confer ences. The 4th of February will be memor able in the political history of this country for the meeting of two conferences. The first is the one ivitiated by the State of Virginia, in viting the border and other States to meet them in confeience, at Washington City, to de vise, if possible, some measures for averting the storm which now threatens the fair fabric of the Union. The second is the Southern Confederacy Congress proposed by Alabama, who extended invitations to South Carolina, Mississippi, Florida and Georgia to meet her through their delegates-at Montgomery, Ala bama, on the 4th February. All of the in vited States have responded, and representees have been selected to join in the deliberations of that Assembly. It is thought that a pro visional federative government will be formed and put into operation by the end of February. The provisional government will probably be similar to that under which we now live. The Congress itself, is nothing more than a provis ional government.' They will prepare the form to which all the States they represent shall be pledged. Themselves the represen tatives of the people delegates chosen by sovereign conventions their power in provis ional matters will be unlimited. It is suppos ed theywill mould the incipient nationality to suit the exigencies of the times, elect a pro visional .chief magistrate and order elections for various offiecs.
