Jaines Otis,ithe very rn_an_'t‘h‘at', by‘t_lIc_té5:
timony of John Adams,‘ put the ball of the
Revolution in motion. (Applause.) When
from such an advanced period of life, he
speaks to the people of Massachusetts, I
amisure that a majority of them, whatever
other; may door say, will hear him with
great respect. Iwish, his letter may be
read by every voter in the State.
iAf er reading this letter,l referred to Mr.
Otis‘ speecli in the Senate of the United
States, delivered in January, 1820, and I
undertake to say that from that speech
there may be made, without the addition
of a sentence, or a phrase, as good an
anti slavery platform as th.it which I188
been constructed by the architects of the
Buffalo Convention._
Now gentlemen, it is proposed by some
VVhigs to join with others, and to carry
this new party into the-State eleetion,anLl
to attempt by means of it, to revolution
izei the Government of Massachusetts.-
VVhy do they do this’! They profess to
nominate a President. of the United States,»
because they are dissatisfied with the nom-
inations already mude. Some of them do
not like Gen. Cass, and others do not like
Gen. Taylor. Very well; might they not
"have followed the example of Pennsylva
nia and.other States, and limited their op-
positionto these national candidtites.—§
Was it necessary for them, was it for any
just purpose, to carry that opposition so’
far as to attempt to disorganize and revo-
lutionize the State of t\'lassachusetts’l—
N_ow we see some Whigs—I think not
many, but I see them with‘as much grief
as surprise, who have acted with us all
along for years, who have been friends of
Gov. Briggs, and Lieut. Gov. Reed, and
have supported them cordially for years,
but who now join an association, one pro-
fessed object of which is to defeat their.
re-election and bring in new men.
And pray what have‘ Gov. Briggs and
Lieut. Gov. Reed done since last yearl
Nothing. \Vhat did they ever do in their
lives that any of these gentlemen complain
of? Not a single thing. ‘Not a single
vote, sentiment, or word, so far as I have
observed, has ever been awarded by Gov.
Briggs or Lietit. Gov. Reed, on this (pies-
tion of Slavery, which any of-those disci- -
ples of the Free Soil school find fault with.
What thenis to be said in such a case it
Why it appears to me gentlemen, to be’
a, very extraordinary predicament in
which they have placed themselves. They
will judge for themselves, but so it seems
to me. Here are men who have not only
constantly supported ..:Gov. Briggs, but
have received, office" at his liands——nay,
have sat with him, side by side, in coun-
cil, year after year, advising and concur-
ring, so far as I know, in all his recom-
mendatiotis. Now when men under these
circumstances come out to oppose h.im, I
think tney may be called upon, fairly, to
give such a reason for their conduct as
shall satisfy the just and intelligent of the
community. '
' What are - these reasons which they
give! Why the only‘ reason is—We have
found it necessary to withdraw our sup-_
port from the person nominated for the
Presidency by the Whig;l»-‘-ar:y‘;- and we
haae thought it expedient to set up .\=I-r.
Van Buren for President ; and Mr. Briggs
will tint go for him; and Iilr. Reed will
not go for him! Andwlio ever thought
they ‘would l (Cheers) Because Gov.
Briggs and Lieut. Go‘-'. Reed will not join
in this attempt to make Mr. Van Buren
President,these men join an association,
one of the professedand -.u;owed~. objects
of which is to defeat as far as they can,-
every Whig nomtnatiori in the State ol
i\I.issacl.tisetts, I do notjudg'e.any'inan’s
conscience——l leave that to himself; but
cet-tainly, I, for one, shall not envy the
feelings of these gentlemen, when they
find at the close of the ensuing election,
they have done all in their.powe‘r against
their oldest and best friends, without ac-
complishing the least thing which they
desired themselves.
They talk of putting down in this Com-
monwealth the “minions of Slavery.”
Pray, who are ' the minions of Slavery?
Is Gov. Briggs one-of the MI Is John Reed,
a native of this county, known in it as
well as any other man, is liethe-mitn'on"of
Slave power’! My friend who sits by me
here, whom I have been proud to call my
friend in public and private. life for ‘thirty
years, William Baylies, nominated for
Elector in this district, is he one of the
minions of Slavery that these Free Soil
men talk about! ’ ‘I
(“ No, nor a Van Buren Whig~either.”)
Far from it. The Whigs of" the 9th
District have nominated a gentleman ‘to
represent them in Congress. I have not
the pleasure of his acq'uaietance—but I
understand that he is_a very respectable
man, a good Whi_;r,and as much opposed
to the extension of slavery as any man in
the Commonwealth-I mean Mr. Fowler,
of Fall River—and he.is another “ minion
of theslave power.” whose election they
will defeat if theycan. If he should be
returned to Congress, he will in all proba-
bility, upon every question touching sla-
very, give just such ,r_i_vot_e as they would
desire him to give. On every other ques-
tion, he will give a Whig vote, and for
that reason, these,Whigs, who have joined
the Free Soil party will defeat him it they
can! That is the truth of it. In that dis-
trict, a gentleman whom I have not the

Gentlemen, i_t is well known that there
is nothing in this Btifliilo platform which,
in general; does not meet theia’pprobaiio'n,
and the entire approbation of all llle W.l“g§_

should go and_ join the Free Soil party,
what would be the result’! Why, so far,
nothing would happenbut that the Whig
party would have changed its name. That
would be all. Instead of being the Whig
party, it would be the Free Soil’ party.-
We should be all there, exactly upon the
more principles upon’ which we have al
ready stood ; but then they propose to go
‘Vnrther, and do that u hich I agree would
he :1 great change: that is, to put Mr.
Van. Buren at theiliead of the Whig party‘!
(Laughter and applause) ‘
Gentlemen, children at school, you
know, often amuse themselves in drawing
fantastical images, putting the heads of
some animals upon the bodies of others,
and thus producing resemblances of all
monstrous and prodigious things. Now,
[think if one of these juvenile liuiue .-
had a fancy to try his hand at political
caricature, and should draw the Whig
party, and put Mr. Van Buren’s head upm-
it-—or him at its head, rather—he would
make an image that would create more
laughter than the celebrated Gerrymantler.
(Laughter) '
---Gentlemen, it is not to-be disguised that
we are in a crisis. Whether we look to
the state of affairs in the nation, or wheth-
er we look to these newly rising questions
and newly rising parties among us, they

Whigs to do their duty. lam not dis

there will be a union and energy among

character of the Wltigs of this State.-—
They have made their successful efforts
under circtimstances of great discourage-
ment. I have no doubt they will make
successful efforts on this occasion.
Fellow-citizens of Plymouth county,
now and here, I terminate what I have to
say in public, on the political questions
now before the country. I deeply regret
that anything should occur to weult:--"ii the
strength of the party or cloud its pros-
pects; for I sincerely believe its success
is intimatelyblenderl with the preserva-
tion of the constitution apd the great in-
terests of the country.
Gentlemen, the Whig party may en-
counter m't~-fortunes; it may commit mis-
ta.es; but for one, I s/tall follow its for-
turies; because I am more willing to trust
myself, and trust the country, upon Whig
principles and Whig policy than tipon
those of any other political party or asso-
ciation. (Great applause.) I believe that
these principles and that policy have
come down to us from the days of \Vash-
ington. I see that this Whig party
stretches from the North to the Sotith,
from the East to the VVest, comprising
mtich of numbers, mtich of intelligence
ism. In a country like ours, it is not an
easy thing’ to form a party that shall not
be local, but that shall be sound and com
stiiutional, and that shall spread over all
the country, possessing in every State
more or less weight influence, power and
numbers I look to the preservation of
that party; I look to it as a great security
even if it prove to be a minority. The
Whigs, if united and strong, and patriotic,
and persevering, though they may bea
minority for twenty years, are capable of
rendering llie country great. service. For
one, therefore, I am for supporfing, deci
dedly, and with alacrfty, t/ze nonttinarion,

Convention has seen fit to make, looking to
its influences as the only means of escape
from great’ and t/zreatening dangers. (Great
applause.)
