BY DAVID OVER.
SPEECH OF
not mf.
.it 3 Ratification Meeting of the .Imerican
Republican party, kdd in Ihrrisburg,
on the '2Sth oil.
Mr. K'inkel said he did not come here t 0
nbmit to the nomination of David Wilinm
ti>r Governor, but he came to hail it— not
io aeqniese* in it as a necessity, but to re
i >ice at it—not to say to his follow citizens
r h:t as we had sent delegated to the nomt
: a iug convention we were bound by the
nomination there made, but to say that in
lis judgmeot it was the very best noiuina
• '?< iB that could have been made, ana in ev
=•->• way fit to be ui-tde. David Wiliaot was
-he foremost mm of his age, and of the
vr. Where in the history of Pennsylva
nia can siif-h a spectacle be presented as
icn.igt.i congressional district presents?—
Mx or eight years ngo that District gave
or eight thousand Democratic majority;
it-uow gives the same majority the other
wa* —a change in a siugle Congressional
.!??r:et of s one fifteen thousand votes. —
Ito'.v mu-Ai of that change is attributable to
Davii Wilniit himself? Must not the man
uhi can thus wield the popular seuti
mv.'ii among his friends and neighbors be a
true, sincere, faithful aide mat/? How
faithfully tias David Wilurot, ever since he
introduced Into Congress his gteat. proviso,
extending the Jeffersoniau ordinance to the
'iVrihories acquired from Mexico, adhered
to the nobie stand then taken? Others
fell by the wayside, an t h"\*e had their re
wards in places of honor aud trust from th r
Democratic party- Hut office aud cmoiu
latat had no charms to win David Wiltwot
from his principle. The highest honors
aud rewards were within his reach, if he
had cm.son', i to abandon L;-f<alty to-F;<•■"
dm at tbe bidding of his party. >Kut he
nobly Sfiumed th-m alt, for right and truti
an 1 justice,and in the hour of trial was
••Faithful found anions the faithless,
And faithful only lie."'
Take him, as the record of libs life show
bill., and he presents "a combination and a
tiTu indeed
",Vhere very god hath set ids seal
give Ibe Vurkl assurance of a titan.*'
Mr. Kutikel said it was urged auiongs
Americans who had been Vt higs, ag-iius
Mr. Wtlui t that he had until recently beet
:s Democrat. It was tone. Hut, said Mr
K., when I became an American 1 eensei
to be a Whig, and cert<ed to inquire as t>
the antecedents of any candidate nfl-re
for my support. S i would every tru.
American.
Hut Mr. \V iiiKot bad been hostile to pro
lectioti, and this was made a great bugbeai
amngoli Whigs, ft was true that Mr
•J'iiuMt had differed from the H'hig pirtj
on ihis question, though lie always conce
ded that the irou interest, as a na'iouai in
tcrest, should receive the fostering care o
the government. Hut whatever may hav<
beer, the views of the I*d;h congressioDa
district, iu ti-c past ou that subject, ,1/r. Iv
know that in t!ic last Congress the repre
sentative of that district voted uniformly
witli tiic friends of protection.
Hat it was said again, A/r. ffilmot wis
not an American. A/r. K v■ul J not s"a:n,
t'p and urge the claims of David H ilino
upon his American brethren if ho did no'
il.iuk and know Mr. IFtiinot to be the *4-
vocate of their view-.
H hen the present Executive was nomina
ted li* the American party, and was th.
candidate of that party alone, David M il
iriot and Ins district, gave htut their full
hearty and cordial support, running up at
uupr.-ccdouted majority for him. lluweve:

.Vr. H.limit tikes the nomination as tin
r preventative of those principles. A won.
the rcsoludnns adopted is the following:
"Hcsolvcd, That it is a fraud upon Ou;

their bauelits, any nun who acknowledges a
foreign supremacy, which he Canuot consci
entiously aui without mental reservation,
abj treand for iver teuotiace; whether thai
•ojireoiacr he civil <>r spiritual.
That, scid Air. K., is enough for tnc a
•an American. It embraces *.W vital prin
ciple of Americanism. Could such a rev
coition be pati.cd in a democratic conven

the ever-varying creed of the Democratic
party on the snfjeot of Slaveij, was not ob
noxious to this epithet lie, himself had
gone to Congress from one of the most con
servative districts of Pennsylvania, entei
tiining the most conservative views on the
Slavery question, and yet, because lie had
voted for Mr. BANES for Speaker, and for
the investigation of the Kansas election
frauds, he was takn and reputed an abo
litionist. If one protest against the exten
sion of Slavery, adhering to the policy that
prevailed in the Federal Government, from
the days of Washington to Polk, be is an
abolitionist. If a christian man declared
his belief that all men have God for their
htrtber, and are, therefore, a common
brotherhood, he is an Abolitionist.
, REEDRR went from the bosom of the
Democracy of Pennsylvania to Kansas only
to be stigmatized and sent back an abo
litionist; later, GEARY, from the same polit
ical fold, went with the endorsement of the
chief men of his party everywhere, and he'
cause he would not prostitute the functions
of his office to fasten slavery on Kansas, is
liable to assassination, compelled to resign,
aud branded as an abolitionist. All men
who will not swear to the divinity of slavery
—not only o? the black men, but thai slave
ry is the natural aud inevitable condition of
labor, without regard to color—are abolition
ists.
Mr. K. did not fear the use of oppro
brious epithets. They were poor argument s,
and'had no longer power with tbe,people-
He would not hereafter stand np to defend
against such charges. They were lies, and
he would not waste time in argument about
them. He meant in this canvass, instead
of being put in the defensive to carry tbe
war into the enemy's cantp, arraign the
Democratic party —not for sympathy with
the negro, but with a design to enlatga the
house of bondage until it shall embrace the
free white laborer df the North.
Mr. K. referred to the opinions recently
pi}tir*rth bv the Rickmoul Enquirer on
behalf of tbo Democratic party of the South
that Slavery is the natural and moral con
; diti-iu of the iiliot ing men , wether white or
j Hack, and that the great evil o: Northern
free society i, that it is burdened with a
servile clasi of meekanici and laborers unfit
lor s-lj government, end yet clothed with
the attributes and powers of citizeus. The
great content, Mr. K. said, was; whether
free society or slave society should prevail
in the territories, an 1 in this strggle these
monstrous doctrines were avowed by the
Democratic party. Did they meet with re
buke from the Democratic press of the
North 1 No; rather with acquiescence. It
is for a departure from the ancient laud
marks, for a settled design to force Slavery
, wit!; fire and swotd upou Kansas, for the
bold avowal that Slnveay is the natural aud
; moral condition of the white l.il>orer as well
I as the biuek, that the Democratic ptrty will
have to answer iu this canvass, and in the
overwhelming voice of popular in lignation
their miserable shibolcth <ef abolitionism
will be unheard. Mr. K. referred to the
decision of the Supreme Court of the Uni
ted States in the Dre I Scott case. It was
a mere dictum of that Court—extra-judi
'cial. ar.d carried no force. Even if it had
been pronounced upon the very case, there
would still be higher authority—for higher
than acts of Congress, higher titan decisions
of Federal Courts, was the Constitution of
the United States—itself the supreme law
of the land.
Mr. K. then pledged to the nonsination
of DAVID WH.MOT aud the whole ticket his
earnest and hearty support under all cir
cumstances. It wotild be a prond day fot
Pennsylvania and the North when the bal
lot boxes thould proclaim David Wilmof
Governor of Pennsylvania, lie hoped and
expected to see ifcat day. The National
Democracy claim to have repudiated and
ejected David Wi'snot for the crime of lov
ing liberty too well. It will not be the
first time in political annals that "the stone
which tha builders rejected, bacatae the
head of tba-eorner."
Z7~\ boy who had stolen soma apples,
was forgiven, for rather the ingenious man
ner iu which ho excused himself The
schoolmaster, asking him what he bad to say
for himself, the urchin replied .
'The apples were Tom's. I don't know
bow he got thein, and now they arc mine,
and he don't know how I got them.'

ing, was made by f?ekyl, upon aa old lady
who was brought forward to prove a tender
made to a certain party.

Can never prore a tender m.iid

GETTING KM MIXED.—We once heard
an old fellow, famous all over the couutrv
for tourb yarus, tell the following. Il
was teliiuff what heavy wheat he had twos
in the State of New York.
'My father,' said he,'once had a field of
wheat, the beads of which were so close to
gether that the wild turkeys, when they
came to eat it, could walk around on the
top of it anywhere.
We suggested that the turkeys might
have been small ones.
•No, sir,' continued he, 'they were very
large ones, I shot one of them one day,
and when I took hold of his legs to carry
him, bis head dragged in the snow behind
me.'
'A curious country you must have had,
to have snow iu harvest."
'Well, I declare,' said he, looking a lit
tle foolish, 'I have got par's of two stories
mixed.'
37f~"As you Wive your soul beware of the
world, it hath slain its thousands and ten
thousands. What rurned Lot's wife ?—the
world. What ruined Judas ?—the world.
What ruined Simon Magus/—the world.—
And, What "hail it brofit n man if he gain
the whoie world, and lose his own soul?
1?"A gentleman advertising for a wife,
says;—'lt would be well if the lady were
possessed of a competency sufficient to secure
her against excessive grief, iu ease of ac
cident occurring to ber companion.
( iy The woman that has not touched the
heart of a man before ho leads her to the
altar, has scarcely a chance to charm after
possession and security turn their powerful
arm agaiust her. v
