proud to believe that am now member as you
are, greater portion of you, of party which Is
at this moment stronger and better prepared to
carry another contest in 1874 for the rescue oil the
public lands, than ever they were. Prolonged
| cheers. We go into the contest buoyed up
| by considerations such no other party ever
| had before, still more Imperative than IN the
contest of 1910. 1t is the consideration that
when we had the power in cur own hands we have
lost every measure by the influence Of the Presi-
dent and the veto power, which the people in l84o
declared should be opposed. We fight them for
the same principles as did in 1910; for the
same measures and, thank God, with the excep-
ton of some half dozen, with the same Whlg par
ty in 1B42 as in 1840. Power and patronage
have not bought u.s. we have stood on the nigh
ground on which the people of the United States
have placed US, and there we will remain till ano-
ther victory is achieved. (Cheers.


But there is still another circumstance deseTv-
ing your consideration. If the passage OF this
bill has united US with cords ten-fold stronger, 1t
! has disunted the Democrats (Cheers). 1t has
severed that great party. With Van Buren, On
the one hand and Wright contending for protec-
ton (because this bill gives i). and with Calhoun
on the other hand consepding for free trade and
denouncing this as more than the bill OF aboml-
nations" of 1929 we have in prospect very
pleasant family quarrel (Cheers). Let that quar-
rel go on; let Us take care of ourselves, and when
the time arrives let US staad up to our principles
Jet Us maintain our measures and bind ourselves
together from one end of the Union to the other,
| for the great contest which awaits Us. Thaak
God thank God if there are men who have be-
trayed u.s. there is one who never betrayed his
friends loud applause and three cheers for Har-
ry of the Wess"O.

Mr.. M. resumed his seat amid hearty and en-
thusiastic cheering


| Mr.. STANLr was next introduced to the meet
ing, and was received with three hearty cheers,
After the cheering had subsidized MIR. Stanly spoke
in substance as follows:


ow-citizens, / am to address you under cir
cumstances of peculiar embarrassment. have
heen in the habit of addressing public assem-
blnges, but never Before did | address world.
| (Laughter.) have often addressed the House of
Representatives, be sure, and like and then
to take haRd in rough and tumble debate and
crack whip over the Loco-Focos' ears, but this
is almost overpowering spectacle; but feel it
my duty to say few words in behalf of the Wing
party and return thanks to you for your cordial
ception and greeting in this city.


During the session of Congress which has just
closed, we have had torrents Of reproach poured
out on us from the Executive minions and hire
ling Press; but instead of giving way and falter-
ing in our course, we went on, knowing that it
was right to choose thatpopularty which follows,
not that which is run after;' and think from the
demonstrations which we hear, THAI popularity
follows meritorious public servants. We have
been told that we went there to I" head Capt. Ty-
ler." Nothing is more false. What object had
we in heading Capt. Tyler and going into con-
test merely to thwart his wishes? We perceived
that he was the accident Of an accident, elected
merely by chance-that he wept like child when
Clay did not receive the nomination for the Presi-
dency-and that he would soon be forgotten OF
ought to be; and when the letter of Mr.. Bolts ap'
peared it reproyed on the floor OF Congress by
the Wings, and it was said that although that gen.
teman spoke truly his Own sentiments, yet he did
not express the feelings and wishes of the Whig
party. To say that The great Wing party, after
they had fought against Jackson's administration
for eight years, and Van Buren's 9, who was elected
by him for four years-who had overcome these
grea: difficultes-that they should go deliberately
to work in heading such a man as Capt. John Ty-
ler was most absurd Laughter. We have la
bored assiduously have long been ab;ent from our
homes, and have sacrificed everything for the pub
lie good we have supported ourselves in the midst
OF all the reproach cast Us, sustained by the
consciousness of our own integrity and that the
American people would in the end do US justice
we went on and did our duty, and justice has been
done US and our motives have been appreciated.


We have done every thing to support the Gov

port which we could with our conscience sup
port (for trust we may be allowed the benefit of
a conscience as well as the rest) which we have
not supported. We have given him every mea-

Notes. supplies for Government; we have endea-
vored to carry on the Government. Look to the
