from South Carolina though the accrediled agent of this Commonwealth in 1 a mattervitally affecting its sovereignty and the liberty of its' citizens) made a speech at some length chiefly to prove that he and those who were acting with him were true Jo the Whig platform on the subject of slavery that they presented to the country no new issue but were endeavoring to redeem old Whig pledges by a con i sistent course of 'action that consequently they were neither factious nor sedtronai in their spirit or object and finally thajt the Whig party had falsified its professions and promises and selected a man for the Presidency who hadrepeatedly declared that he would not run as the candidate' of aiiy party Sp far as the Whigs of the North are concerned it was very easy to prove that they had basely violated' the most solemn pledges Respecting the extension of sla very but not so as regards the Whigs of the South who have given pledges Mr Hoar spoke in measured terms and in prnfzcirnl though he were simply making an ordinary plea at the bar but i occasionally he gave utterance to sentiments that were warmly responded toespecially if they related to the non extension of slavery was

manfully protested' against the nomination of Gen Taylor and pledged himself to spare no efforts to defeat the election of that two legged bloodhound His speech at the Temple was not one of his best efforts though it was earnest and forcible' every thing in it worth applauding received its due at the hands of the assembly which was evi dently much more ready to hear and endorse the strongest anti slavery utterances than the speakers were disposed to make them The last speaker was Mr Payne a gentleman from Rhode Island who infused' considerable life' into the meeting by his cleat enunciation and eloquent appeals He also spoke most acceptably at the Worcester Convention and promises to be an effective public" speaker''At a late hour the meeting separated all the proceed ings having been
