JACOB VEY, Jr., As the time is rapidly=aching when the Democracy are to a standard bearer for the nexteGuberitatorial contest in this State, it is essential that the De mocracy of this:county . sbauld be prepared to indicate their choice amongst the dis tinguished names suggested' for that posi tion. Among all the various persons pre sented to the:consideratiosi of the conven tion soon to assemble no one has stronger claims, and certainly no ate in all the ele ments of a popular and successful candi date is better 'calculated to rally the full and united strength:of the'party and carry it through the conflict with success, than the lion. Jacob Fry, .Tr., of Montgomery county. His intimate practical acquain tance with the resources of the State, with her wealth and productive capacities, his deep, sincere and patriotic devotion to her interests, render him peculiarly fit for the position of tiovernor of this great conser vative commonwealth, and his high moral worth and universal reputation for un bending honesty, will gather around him a weight of influence, extraneous and outside of the party orillaniration, which could not ho brought to the support of any other candidate. That be will run largely ahead of the party vote, particularly in the central and Eastern portions of the State. is a fact of which I am well satisfied from observation and personal intercourse with gentlemen of all party denominations in those sections. lits rigid, uniform and in flexible integrity, his stern fidelity, the soundness of his judgment, and his un doubted ability, in all positions he has been called upon to till, give him a strong hold upon the regard and esteem of all parties and render him a peculiar favorite of the nitu.ses of the I,eopie who may regard these qualities u+ touch more essential to a high executive functionary than brillianey of intellect, high scholastic, and classical at iainments and splendor of genius which to a great extent unfit then for the dry, (lull, but necessary details of official husi- ll= The successful wanner in which he has conducted the strain the Auditor lien oral's deliartment 'rat e s hiM capaci ty and furnishes liaranty of an intelligent, honest ful discharge of the duties of trate of the State the people tad poet.— voritiern. no ea expediency, no pecuniary advantage has ever been able to swerve him a hair's breadth from the strict and rigid law of official duty With him official position imposes high and responsible obligation, which it should be the aim of the incum twilt to deieharge to the hest of his judge merit and with fidelity to those affected by the mliiiiiii4tration of the office, and not an object merely of political ambi tion or pecuniary benefit. The peo ple of this commonwealth are capable of appreciating the services of (len Fry, his utt-werving integrity, the high moral prin clple that has ever actuated him, and his nomination will inspire an enthusiasm that will inc%itably lead to him triumphat elec tion. I trust that the Erie County Democracy will second the choice of other portions . of the State already most significantly indi cated, and with great unanimity send del egates to this Ith of March convention in favor oftho , listinguished subject of this ar ticl DEMOrRA'r.

ED. Onsitnits:—lour Washington county correspondent did not anticipates controversy with the Professor, when he alluded to certain facts connected with the Institute at Pt. Ed ward. The hint was thrown out for thane who might:understand, with the hope that a prop - fir corrective would be applied to the evil of which be most seriously complained. The writer was not put to the dishonorable shift of "Ploping with any of the Professor's unruly steers," or gathering up rumors that might be "lying about loose" for want of owners. this source of in formation he is willing to trust still further He cared nothing for the efficient music teach er, and is willing, for the sake of peace, to admit that his dexterous flourishes of the fiddle bow were only equalled by his inordinate and ridiculous display of vanity. The case of the lady student, from Ralagh, if his memory serves him, IS strictly true, and did occur in the Institute, the Professor denial to the con trary notwithstanding A large proportion of the exhibiting class freely indulged in a re hash of stale political sentimentalism, about Bleeding Kansas, Southern Slavery", the weak nese, imbecility and tyranny of the national executive, to the immense delight and mani fest pleasure of the assembled hundreds in the Hall. Every actor in the drama was cheered, save two—one, a young man who essayed to say something sensible, but failed to give birth to his mighty thoughts, the other, the student, who by accident, was last in order though not least in merit She had listened to the ap Otiose given to her classmates, and it is no great stretch of fancy to suppose she indulg ed in anticipations common to our nature In sty le and address equal to the best tin the stage, she told of her home, 'mid the orange groves of the sunny south, and from her heart ascend ed a pure and holy prayer to Him who holds the destinies of nations in his hand, for a more cordial brotherhood among the States, and the perpetuity of the Union. Rut she stood alone lier fervent aspirations swept no chord of sym pathy In that vast assembly none felt so poor as do her reverence. The applause evinced by that popular audience, if nothing remarkable, was very discreditable to their prejudices and if the Institute cannot control public opinion , it can keep out of its exhibitions, the apple of discord, fr. e ducassios, on questions of political economy, State policy, and fora/ prejudices,— questions which have disturbed wiser heads and abler councils than appears to be the qualification of nick patriotic young men as the Professor appears to cherish , and by so doing remove the occasion for illiberal disminina hum of.favors towards candidates for distinc tive honors. Such exhibitions do not evidence great intellectual qualifications, or advance ment in studies; but are calculated to meet the disapprobation of those who pay their ed itors, and, eke their preachers, for that tied of entertainunsaL Public opinion expressed in as Institution is in most eases the handiwork tad Mks elite ImaiMilips, and, en Ales Pro few" neithey provesteh b .the canes *or repcor od the insult, I hare yet to 1011111 skid, tile Is an Immortbla con licit. reititiil lorr&en of temporizing and The Professor's admission, that "free spk is torersted on the stage, within the wholesome limits, which forbid indecent, profane or infidel expressions—and the same Genus in criticising public men and measures, as is customary with acknowledged party lead ers in the U. S. Senate," is in the writer's bumble opinion very far from being a recom mend to the Institution. A little wholesome re straint upon the patriotic ambition of your unfledged statesmen would hardly be reckoned an abridgement of free speech. which too often is but a milder expression tot free persecution Besides, who ever heard of party leaders and the U.

I knew them to be utterly unwarranted by the facts of the case, and that the accusation was as unjust as any accusation could be. The simple declaration, aside from the circumstances which surrounded it, does not give it its full force. The Senator from Georgia had for some time indulged in his peculiar description of the Opposition par ty and of the Abolition party in the North; and then, to my utter amazement, in round terms. without qualification, he declared that a large portion of the Democratic po et the North were as rotten on this sub ject— Mr. Pugh—"As corrupt." Mr. Bigler—As corrupt on this subject as the Republican party or the Abolitionists. "This subject." What subject? The Sen ator was reviewing the whole scope of Ab olition feeling in the North, and said that on this subject a portion of the Northern• Detnocracy were as corrupt as the Aboli tionists. Now sir, I tell him in all kind ness, and without fear of contradiction, that his arasertion is without any founda tion in fact : the accusation IS totally and entirely unjust. I say not only that no portion of the Denia•rate• party sympa thized with Brown in his atrocious outrage upon the sovereign State of Virginia: but they do not synnottlubi with Abolitionism in any place whatever, or to any extent whatever. I was gratified with the Semi ator's disclaimer, sir, an far alit went; hut justice at his hands requires that he say of the Northern Detirieracy, as an organiza tion and as a body, what you cannot say for yourself, that is, that we have labored day after day, in seiuion and out of season. in defence oft he rights and interests of our sister States. Iverson—Mr. President, I Kahl that very thing in the remarks which I uttered. I gave credit to the sound portion of the Northern Democracy in language which (soul(' not he misunderstood. I referred. when I spoke of the rottennebs of a por tion of the Democratic party, to that por tion of Democratic party which, under the lead of Stephen A. 14mglas, has denied to the people their right,. in the Territories of the Union. Mr. Bigler—ltiatenness of the I )emovr.it ie party on the slavery question' Str. the Senator can hardly realize the ..tten-ive.. ne•-u4 of-the term. I know, or. he doe- not intend to apply it to mys+.lf; but it kiiiiitnit when applied to any portion of the I>.•uto cratie party. Why. thousands of wit nes will spring up in every Northern State, on every hill-up and in every vane), on every rostrum, and on the corners. of the streets, daily and hourly contradicting every statement he has made. The Oppo sition of every shade, contradict They call us the dough-faces of the North, yielding constantly to Southern dictation an 4 Southern aggressions. Now, sir, I can see one view only which may have led the Senator front Georgia into error on this question, and it is this : he has confounded the different phases of the alaves7 question, as he has shown here Nis worm and adopted his own peen views " lies would go with him in - he . local policy for a Territory • but. I (lo say that l have never disooverc:d anywhere, any portion of them sympathising with the Abolition party ; and as far as the raid of John Brown is concerned, it has been de nounced in every corner of the country by Democrats, and by the Democratic press, in terms of bitterness equal to those used by the Senator from Georgia. I have heard Brown's foray denounced in all parts of my State, and I would be, glad to convince the Senator that on that point he is utter ly mistaken. The Northern Democracy not only do not sympathize with Brown. but they denounce him and his raid in the bitterest terms possible ; and further let me say that the people of my State, the Democratic party a a whole, and a 'large element of those who act against us in that State, have entertained the most profound contempt for Brown and his abettors, and were ready. at any hour. to have gone to the - aid of Virginia, and to maintain her to her just rights, and have repelled any in vasion of her territory. Not only that, sir. but I cap say to that Senator safely, we are not only bound to Virginia and the South by the conventional arrangements that bind the sovereign States together, but b) [ every tie that can link together a common [ people. descendants of a common parent ' age, actuated by similar and noble motives. If there he that entire alienation in the North from the South that some s ena t,, r , undoubtedly feel that there is, I have never encountered it ; God forbid that I elver should. That there i• too much of it, that there is bad feeling there on the part of a band of will fanatir., and that the.e men find countenance for their acts in much that has fallen from di.tinguiihed men of the Republican part). H true ; but. sir, the Democratic party, nor Imv portion of hax never countenanced or sympathriced in these sentiments and movements. . I am aware that Democrats, thousands of them, will tell you that slavery should not go into this Territory or into that.— They have thi:e right to do that. Their judgement is as sacred to them as yours is to you. They are not Abolitionists. They will tell you, in all probability, that, if they lived in your cotton or nee growing States, they would be for slit% cry there ; but look ing at Kansas, its climate, its soil, and all its surroundings. they way, -- No, we will not vote for slavery in that Terntory : we will not vote for it there as a matter simply of local policy—as a mere question of isilitical economy.•' They would judge that the in, stitution would not advance such a State, because it is too far North, These men are not to be called Abolitionists. They do not go about daily exciting the popular mind against the institution or slavery. I t is not they who allege that it is immoral and wrong and oppressive anti unjust to hold slave. They do not belong to that class of setimentaleas who excite popular indignation and discontents in regard to slavery ; who attempt to make the world believe that if they had the control of the question, they could, in some way or oth er, elevate and 4ignify the African race.— No, sit ; they are a different class of men ; .and it diii,seem to me that the Senator from Georgia had confounded these two classes, and in that way fell into error. Now, sir ; I do not agree with all that Judge Douglas has said on the Territorial question ebut I do not agtee that he is an Abolitionist., I have never heard that al leged anvw'bere. This controverted ques tion, with regard to slavery in the Territo ries, seems to be endless. I will declare in a very few words, as I have declared here before, what I have to say on it, awl that is simply this : tin not claim that the Constitution establishes slavery any where or' prohibits it anywhere, but the Constitution most expressly declares that the States are perfeetly «slued, and provides that new States shall conic into the Union on terms of perfect equality with the old. It is not denied that the Territories are the property of the States in common, Congress being simply ths trustee' of the Stittat this property. It is, thetefore,'perfor#e of I this perfect equility and the principles of equity wad justice, that these common owners have an equal right to the occu panty and enjoyment of this common di}. main, so long as the Territorial existence -eemaina—so long as the Territorial govern ment exists. aril among those who had supposed that the..corritnon law of England and the common law of this country, to gether with the fugitive slave law, would afford all the protection which the owners of slaves would require in any Territory. and no legislation would be necessary. We all know that there is a deferred question under the Kansas-Nebraska bill, touching the measure Of authority which the people of *Territory may exercise over the sub ject of slavery. It was understood on nil hands that that was a question for the ju diciary, whenever the exigency arose, and not for Congress , and I may say to the Senator from Georgia now, that whenever it shall be alleged that a Territorial Legis lature had tranac c ended its legittniate nu thority, to the detriment of private rights. that is a question for the judiciary ; anti when the judiciary gives its judgement 111 such a case, I say the whole power of the Federal Government must be employed to carry out the law thus defined. 1 simply maintain the broad doctrine of allowing the people in a Territory to exercise all the authority over the question of slavery whirl th'ey may exercise under the Constitution and laws, and when a dispute arises as it whether they have transcended that au thority, that is not a question for Coheres-, but for the Courts. 'I hat is the Democrat ic doctrine, AS I understand it and foi hold that, I do not agree that I am an Al. olitiotust, or those whom I re-present at, Abolitionists. %o, sir , we are the en. , tries of Abolitionism We .1. , nt.t. t disturb, to any way or fOrni. by w.orti "1 deed, the rights of our Southern friend- Sir, 1 may say to the Senator from ties.' ght that, froin the hour that 1 tint caane into politic..l.l life to the present day, 11. ti.• never gone through a polith.al in which the right of the South wets not an important. if not the kitting issue We have been assailed constantly in th, North by the Republicans. they are no, assailing the heinis-ratie party every 41:1‘ on the ground that they are -ttbservi,iit the South--that they are pr .--laversmet. —that they seek to extend the in-tithtinti of sla‘ery.
