Fellow-citizens: Having been honored with a seat in the recent nominating Con Tention of the American party at Philadel phia, as one of the delegates at large from this State, I feel it due to you, as well as myself, to say something with reference to the proceedings of that body, especially as I find that gross misrepresentation have " gone forth calculated to do great injustice to our cause. I shall give you a succinct nar rative of what I aaurand heard during the sitting of the American Convention, and leave others to draw their own conclusions. The first day, the 22d of Febuary, was occupied in organizing, and on Saturday, the 23d, nearly the entire day was employ ed in discussing the question of adjourn ment to July, and the result was a refus 1 to adjourn "by a decisive majority. The vote on this question was 1'ecidcd by yeas and nays, and it was agreed, that as each member was called upon to vote, he should be at liberty to assign the reason for his vote; and thus a very general discussion was introduced, embracing not only the im mediate question before the Convention, but many others, and among them, that of sla very"; and this all-absorbing subject was discussed in a style, by some of those who afterwards withdrew from the Convention, that gave much '.offence to the Southern del egates, and'which, vkh the then belief that we should not be able to make a na tional nominAtioti, or to "o-opernle in future as a national party, induced several 11 e.n bers from the South to retire from the Con vention. In intimate connection with this with drawal was the question presented by the Pennsylvania delegates, of contested seats, there being two sets of delegates, the one known as the Edie, and the other as the Hunsii'ker delegates. There were several questions involved in this contest, among them, whether the Edie delegates had not forfeited their right as members of the na- tional Convention, because the-State Coun cil of Pennsylvania, which appointed them, had rejected the 12th section of the nation al platform of June last, while it was said the Hunsicker had adopted it. On the other band, it was contended that the. State Council which appointed the Hunsicker delegates was spurious, not having been du ly constituted. The respective delegates ted the great nlti matura of the Missouri restrictionists. On One side were arrayed those who would re strict slavery to a certain geographical line : nn tb nlhpr. tbft Hflvocates bf DOOulaT S.OV- XSl. " ...... my - " " - " t . ft ereigniy, maintaining, the right of the citi zens of every territory to form their govern- ment and social system in their own way, subject only to the provisions of the Feder al Constitution. Now, upon this great issue, what was the result? a rejection of this Missouri line, by a vote of 141 to GO! Let it be borne in mind, nlso, that several southern members did not vote on this question, or the major ity would have been still larger. And let it be also remembered, that the result of this vote was to drive out the fanatics, and bring back the southern men who had previously left. To show that I have attached no un due importance to this matter, let us see iilit ilicr inpn themselves sav. As soon )T I1U - j as they left the Convention they met and adopted a protest, and in this they say, that they "find themselves compelled to dissent from the principles avowed by that body (the Convention,) and holding the opinion, as they do, that the restoration of the Mis souri Compromise is indispensable to the re nose a f the Country, &c they regard the course of the Convention as a denial of their rights and a rehukeof their sentiments, ut it is said, by the repeal of the 12th f the new platform, the National rv.iim-'.l exhibits hostility to the South Had they stopped there, then there might have b''en some ' ground for this censure; but thev did not, tney adopted a substitute whix h a" little attention to its provisions will show maintains the rights of the South and of all sections. Let us see what they are. The 0th and 7th sections are as follows, to wit : Gth. The unqualified recognition and i maintainance of the reserved rights of the several States, and the cultivation of har mony and fraternal good wil) between the ' it;Une ..f ihe several States, and, to this end. non-interference by Congress with questions appertaining solely to the indi vidual States, ami non-intervention by each State with the affairs of any other State. 7th The recognition of the right of the native-bom and naturalized citizens of the United Slates, permanently residing iti any Territory thereof, to frame their constitution and laws, and to regulate their domestic and social affairs in their own mode, subject on ly to the provision of the Federal Constitu tion, with the right of admission into the Union whenever they have the requisite population for one Representative in Con irress; provided alwmjs. that none but those who are citizens of the United States under the constitution and laws thereof, and who have fixed residence in any such Territory, ought to participate, in the formation of the constitution, or in ihe enactment of laws of said Territory or Slate. In the 7th Swtion is asserted the great principle of popular sovereignty, a principle, which w as in affect re-arlirmed by the Con vention that met immediately after, as is seen in the resolution with reference to the restoration of the Missouri line. But the convention did not stop with the avowal ol their principle of popular or citi zen sovereignty; they went further and re jected that ol squatter sovereignity, that fea ture of the Kansas-Nebraska Act which was so justly obnoxious to us of the South. llere is the great difference between the platform of the American party, and the position ol tlte Democratic : The American maintains the principles of citizen sover eignity the Democratic adds to it that. of the squatter sovereignity the American party insists that only those who are native born or naturalized shall take part in fram ing a Stale Government the Democratic that the alien, the unaturalized foreigner, shall have equal rights with citzens native- dieai: authority. : Here- is a gres.1 Rational 1 4ty of character; of strict moral integrity, anJ and conservative principle one -that ex-1 -of conservative, principles; and has" shown all pans of. the conntrv and guarentefcsto.l Federal: 6qferliiineMVherHoibreJVMlsiiie4 each" alP laws whole it , therefore slave law nassed To sum. up the wliote then; 1 he plat-j inalion of Mrf lllmore, for the American Hull I Y UdllUliait i main ioi w- t' - uity of the Federal Union as . theT palladium of li .

Will nnv one assert that driving oU sucti men detracts either from the nationality or conservatism of a party? Does the Democratic party regard the integrity of their party impaired or its pat riotism impugned, because their old politi cal .associate-and co-laborer. Francis P. ..." i a a i i Blair, recently, presided ott tn.' uiac.K Republican Convention at Pittsburg ? Or. because he fmind there associated with him many '.other old Democrats plotting treason against the Constitution and the Union! . t ' Again, it is said by some, that the South should not have oecu pied seats in the Con vention with these fanatics of the North. Should the South withdraw from the sup port of her rights because men are found there Teady to waagainst their dearest in terests? Was there ..ot the greater necessi ty to remain and meet face to face her ene mies, and never stop until they were eject ed. Do the Democratic Senators from North Carolina refuse to occupy soats upon the same floor with John P. Hale, William It. Seward, Henry Wilson, and others, the 1 most bitter foes to the South?
