DANIEL WEBSTER was loudly called for, and
rose and delivered speech, which seemed to us,
who are familiar with his oratorcal efforts, as the
greatest speech Of his life. He said:


] enjoy, gentlemen, grea! pleasure in finding
myself in the midst Of the Wigs Of the United
States. come to add one more humble but de-
cided Wing voice to those tones of sentiment
which, springng from this meeting, will gain
confirmation and appreciation from the whole
land. We are assembled 20 perform an impor-
tant duty-to take measures and to express opin-
ions on the election of a President and Vice Pre-
sident of the United States. In times o' great
interest at home, YOU have come together 10 de-


beratc for the good Of your country. Persons
who have honored themselves and honored their
country in every walk and profession of iiie-lnen
from their Agricultural, Mechanical and CONNER
cial pursuts-l,avc come together for dclberallon
;ney have had unanimlty almost unparalleled.
That nomination now before you forms the only
safe rallying ground for all good and true Wings.
But how shall VIC carry out these nominations
Let us imitatc our fathers. When they resolved
to make their country free they proclaimed that
their cause was Just and tleir UNION was complete.
We arc not born 10 such high honOrs rs our IA
thers-wc arc not destined 10 create free States and
Nations-but We are born TO an Inheritance which
we are hound to value and preserve. Let lis bor-
row their patriotism and devotion. Let II 90
forth to the GuIlof Mexco--to the Falls Of the
Missouri-to the East and TO the Wcsi-let II
90 forth with tone aad vigor that will prove lis
sincer!ty--t!at our cause is Just and our Union
TOO is perfect.


The Convention has proposed as candidate for
President of the United States, HENRY CLAY of
Kentucky. For more than thirty years has he
served his country both az home and abroad, use
fully honoraby, faithfully. Ills long career. his
position umong the distinguished men OF the
country, nil have indicated him as the man 10
he nominated. do rejoice with the truest scnt-
ment that there has not been one dissenting voice
To break the unanImity with which you have Sc
ectcd him. L is true there have been subjects
on which We have differed, but | trust we have
acted on those occasions with equal consciousness
OF right and with mutual respect. know hiile
difference between my opinions on any oi the
great leading questions aud those OF that dlStln-
pushed leader oi the Wing Party. II might
have been more becoming in ne 10 have RETAINED
from some of these remarks might have
simply said that he is the nominee of Wings and
that am a Wing. (lIcre q voice was heard.
yes. Daniel. and you shall be next President"
which! called out additional cheers 10 those al
ready so enthusiastically gwen At the honorable
genIcman's announcement As Tor me there
can be 10 more doubt Of the course am 10 pur-
sue than there can be Of my duty.


With respect to the candidate for the second
office, there must have been preferences, but a
wiser or Il better man, III my judgment, could not
be selected. There is no man of purer character,
more accessible manners. or of more unbeudng
Wing principles, than THEopoRE FRELNGHUysEN
of New..etsey. New.JerSey, sir, needs no con-
plimcnts from me. We all know her character.
When The brave troops of Gen. Washington wan.
dcred over her land, tracking the snow with the
blood which flowed from their naked feet, her pa
triolc inhabitants shared with them their food
and garments. Patriotic Revolutionary dust lies
Il, Princeton, Trenton and MonmoG:h; and am
sure that we only want an opportunity TO pay her
4 mark Of respect, in supporting her iayorltc son
for this distinguished office.


The duty before us and other Wigs is 10 re-
store that aScendency which circumstances have
| impaired. We must do the work of 1910 over
again, and do 1t so that it wlli hold. Present cir.
cums;anccs Indicate prosperity in the Country
We must hold to what we have got. and carry
out what failed in accomplishing. We
want to give stability--to settle questions of
national Importance and give them repose.--
Free hands and rcsolutc hearts will work out
our Couutry's welfare, If stability be given
TO the great questions. Every thing will be
prosperous if we put down this everlasting
agitation and adopt SQUAD conservative Why
pnnciplts. Mr.. Clay will be the next President
if We do our duty If we iail TO Go our duty we
shall have Mr.. Van Buren, again. AT the iacn-
nnn of Mr. Van Buren's name there arose such d
cry of No, Mo- that MIR. Webster had to explain
that hc only meant 10 say that MIR. Van Buren,
would be elected ii we failed 10 do our duty l
would not speak disrespectiu!iy of any man whom
u large portion of our fellow citizens have desig-
mated as their preference; but in this he differs
from Mr. Clay, that he does not always express
himself very clearly on public questions. Ii .hr.
Clay is night, he speaks in such a manner that
YOU can understand what he says iii he Is
wrong, you can at least understand him. But
must confess that have not studied the English
language in al its intricscies of positive, mega
tive or doubtful construction, to understand al
