forever check this spirit.- He spoke for about
an hour, sincerely and earnestly, and was lis-

tened to with profound interest and attention.
Hon. Daniel P. Tyler was next called up,

._..'nnd as usual kept the Convention in a roar of

‘laughter during his whole speech-
Chas. Chapman, Esq. on being loudly and
"repeatedly called for, next came forward. He
said we were only called upon in this campaign
a ‘to give a full ‘vote’, for in Connecticut it; had
; passed into a political maxim that a full vote is
at \Vhig victory. He then went. into it review
-of the present aspect and constitution of parties.
in regard to the ‘free soil party, he said it was
1:ornposed of all sorts of odds and ends, now
cndeavoring to aural;_:amate and settle down
upon the Magician of Kinde.rhook. And this
‘man whom the whole country had denounced
‘a nd repudiated as one of the most unprinci;)lcd
and corrupt politicians that had ever been kick-
‘ed out of power, was now proposed as the can-
ididate of pious Abolitionists and conscience
Xvhigs, sprinkled by way of perfume with a
few locofocos. \Vhat was it that the free soil
party claim, even provided that they had a
'-candidate who was decent, who was not a dead
"spolitical hack, whose carcaso long buried and
luow dug up was a stench in the whole political
1‘at.mosphere. \Vhat do they claim? Vfhy
'-that we shall unite with them in sustaining but
one only of our long cherished principles, and
abandon all the rest. This is all there is to it
when stripped naked. Have we not ever been
for free soil? Have the free soil party even
been as free upon this question as the \Vlrigs
\Vhy then select only one of our prin-
ciples and make a party?
The following Resolutions were then pre-
sented ,
Resolved, That continued observation

-deuce in the utility and justice of the
great doctrine of protection to domestic
industry, and that its practical operation
is promotive of the general prosperity,
without injury to any. portion of the coun-
try.

Resolved, That the Whig State Central
Committee, in conjunction with the Whig
County Committees, be, and they are
hereby instructed to arrange and perfect
11 plan by \\-lrich, between now and the
time of the Presidential Election, the
State of Connecticrrt shall be thoroughly
canvassed by Whig Speakers appointed

Resolved, That it be made the duty of
the said Whig Central and County Com-
mittees, in carrying out the above resolu-
tion, to provide, as far as practicable, for
the holding of public meetings in every
£0.-wn. in the State—-said meetings to be
‘held on such days, at such places, and to

ty. \Vheu
The Convention adjourned with three tr_e.-
mendous cheers for the Vtfltig ticket.

 

Local Matters.

Our vi lrige had only a respite ofa few days
last; week, are the “ local excitements" to which
it has been subject. of late, again seized upon us
with “ urtmiligaterl ardor !” The firsttlring in
the excitement line, was it little suspicious look-
ing rag not rernarkable for its very recent. visits
to the wash tub, droopingat half mast from the.
portion oftho Connecticut. There was a tine
waste ofartistical genius in the paint and pen-
cilingtlrercon,—in short, it was well lettered,
and well worded, and though it cost the enter-
prising a rtist a pair of inflamed eyes, upon the
whole, it looked quite unique, atrd richly repaid
his midnight toils. VVe could suggest, howev-
er, a largersqua re of his imzcr garment, as this
one was so small, pcor Mrs. Pnrtingtou could
see nothing but the ominous—'‘ T/zis Placefor
Sale-/" Itis unnecessary to relate the effect;
upon the old ludy’s nerves, but lrer'nzc7ztal-vision
was never clearer than when sheread what onlv
proved rt besecching call fora loco foco nrecting.
Next in course came the world renowned
Razor Strop Man, who has been selling his
straps, rehearsing his prose and poetry for the
last dozen_ years, and still has “ a few more left
of the s.:me sort.”

The next thing on the carpet, the Allegha-
nian’s Concert, deserves a more complimentin-
ry notice than we can now spend time to give.
Sufiice it to say, it was of the highest order.
Last ofull, came St. Nicholas also, under err-
tirely new auspices,———our old friend Reynolds,
having supersecded Capt. Rodman in the corn-
rnand of this splendid boat. \Ve will pocket all
the r'ock.~: she will run upon while directed by
his experienced hand. Ofcourse the reappear-.
ance of the opposition boat, crowned the apex
of oxcitcrnent,and even our stage drivers caught
thecontzrgion, and made tl merry time of it.——
Hurrah for opposition, hurrah for our “ season
ticket 1”

And as for what is to be, it rich banquet is in
store for the lovers of music by he Bcthoven
Quartette of Yale College, assisted by Prof.
I'Iubbard and a celebrated German Pianist who
brings an aeolian attachment; instrument with
him. This will be a new advent to our town
and is to come off on Friday evening next.-

-tlesignaled by the Commluees and due" tion in Buffalo, are dissatisfied with the nomi-

-notice of which shallbe given in the Whig
jpapers of this State. _ '

The Convention their adjourned to meet
.-against 7 o'clock in the evening.

' V I-ZVE.\'1.\'G srzssrox.

The Convention again assembled in the eve.-
.ning, when Hon. Mr. Jackson, of Middletowu,
was called for, who immediately took the stand.
Ile began with expressing his confidence in the
action of thePhiladelphiaConvention. Although
always attached to Henry Clay. and although
he should be glad to see him in the Presiden-
.tial chair, yet it became necessary to select
another man as the V-Vhig cancliiate, in the
view of the Convention. Principle should al-
ways he preferred to inclination, and the good
ofthe whole to personal attachment. He was
to be preferred who could best carry out the
interests, and ensure the success of the \Vhig
Party. Gen. Taylor was in every respect
qualified for this,and a good VVhig. Gen. Tay-
Tlor would restore the country to prosperity.
would correct the abuses of its government,
.and would exhibit to the world the gratifying
spectacle ofa nation of freetnen governed by a

patriot.

Hon. James Dixon was next called for. His
inculcated the necessity of union—the certain-
For

twenty years we had been struggling for good
-government, and the time has now arrived" when
‘we can succeed. He alluded to the name of
_Van Bnren as recalling reminiscences not at
all complimentary to his honesty or patriotism.
The first we hear of him is his attempt to fol-
'low Gen. Jackson. Soon he became known as
.the “ Northern man with Southern principles.”
He once. when President of the Senate gave
the casting vote for a bill prohibiting the circu-
lation of tracts in the South on Slavery. A
pledge of his is on record that he would veto
-any bill which should pass the two Houses of
Congress prohibiting slavery in the District of
Columbia. This was the man who now em-
bodies the principles of the Free Soil party.
‘Mr. Dixon closed with an eloquent appeal to
the '\Vhigs to unite in the support of Taylor.
‘He is worthy of their votes, and should receive
their support. Should he be elected, they
would have (1 majority in Congress, and a full
ropporttinity to carry out the principles of their
party.

E. K, Foster, Esq. of New Haven, at’ the

call of the meeting, made a few remarks. His
contidence in Gen. Taylor was complete, and
he was surprised to find any one doubting that
he was a Whig. Mr. F. noticed the objection
of some that he was a Southern man. On the
so me ‘ground might the South refuse to vote for
a Northern man-—-where then would be our
Union? It? matters not from what district he
comes, we only want to know that he is. a
\Vhig. Let the whigs go on ; they have every
encouragement. They are laboring in tl glo-
rrcus, work—-—no less than to bring the country
-back to the prittciples of the founders of our
‘Government. A

nation of Martin Van Buren. The Lebanon
Star declares that it will not support him; and
the Elyria Courier, the Medina \Vhig. and the
\Varren Chronicle, have as yet refused to hoist
the flag. -The W'hig thus speaks of the rrorn-
ination: '

The masses of the people here opposed
to the extension andperpettlrarion cf sla-
very-—tlrose who looked to the Buffalo
Convention for the present:r,t'0n of a true
friend of Freedom, who ll}/t(.l bcen- tried
and proved faitlrful———will learn with cha-
grin and mortification of the nomination
of I/IAR'l‘IN VAN Bnarau for President. We
know not what the result may be—ti2'ne
and reflection may pronce in the public
mind a different state of feeling, but the
fact cannot be (lisguised, that the anti-
slavery men of this section of the State,
regard Mr. Van Buren’s nomination with
great dissatisfaction.

John Quincy Aalaravs Qpinion of
Van Bnren.

The following remarks were made by John
Quincy Adams upon Mr. Van Burcu’s conduct
in one of those cases of which the latter says as
late as June 20, 1°48, “It is now a source of
coltrsolation to tne that I pursued the course I
then adopted.”
“ A small schooner was secretly sent in the
dead ofwinter, to New Haven, where the court;
was sitting, with the following order-—-I venture
to say the most extraordinary act of despotism
ever signed by a President of the United
States: _
“The Marslral of the United States for
the District of Connecticut, will deliver
over to John S. Payne, of the United
States Navy, and aid in conveying on
board the schooner Grampus, under his
command, all the negroes, late of the
Spanish schooner Amistad, in his custody,
under process now pending‘ before the
Circuit Court of the United States for the
District of Connecticut. For so doing,
this order will be his warrant.
“Given under my hand, at the City of
VVa.shingt0n, this 7th day of January, A.
U. .1840. “ M. VAN BUREN.
“ By the President: Joust Fortsrvrr,
“Secretary of State.”

This order, says Mr. Adams, was on its face
positive. sweeping, unconditional. No specifi-
cation of persons, no names, not. even their num-
ber; all the negroes,late of the Spanish schooner

pending before t.he Circuit Court of the United
States. "\Vas this order given in a country
where the rights of persons are words without
meaning? In the kingdom of Dahomey T In
the region where the bow-string is the Warrant
of "execution ? It was given in the land of the
Declaration of Independence-—in the land of
the self-evident truth. It. was given bya Pres-
ident, the United States. It was of course
null and void; and if, before the decision of the
court, it had been delivered to the M arshal,and
he had executed it, he would have staked not
only the lives of the negroes, but his own head
and that of I\_/Iartin Van Bnren, the signer of

the order. upon the event.”

Mr. Trumbull offered a motion of thanks
to the \Vhigs of Middletown for their hospitali-

Amistad in his custody, under process now,
