I find that quite natural, because between both parties there - Is no difference aa regards the Internal policy, and , because only by the inanity of the German citi- tens of the country, the election will be such that ' by and by. the administration will turn their at- . tentlon to other countries, and give every nation free scope. No tree, my German friends, falls with ' the first stroke: It is therefore necessary that, in- ; asmucb as you are citizens, and can command ' v your rotes, yon support the candidate who will ' pursue the external policy In our sense, and en--: ileavor to effect that all nations become free and . , independent, such as is the case in happy Ameri ' Now the next tiling in course is for Kosuth to ' .:.

WHIG CONVENTION. We give as much of the proceedings of this body as our limits will permit. THIRD DAY. Fnday, June 18, 186!. The Convention was called to order at 10 o'clock, and opened with prayer by tho Rev. Dr. Hamner, of Baltimore, The substitute of Mr. Ewing or the second Res olutlon of Mr. Duncan was adopted, The Committee on Credentials made their Re port and after some unimportant bninesf the Convention adjourned to 5 o'clock. Friday, June 18, & o'clock, P. M. Tho Conven tion haviqg beep called to order, Mr. Ashmun arose and said I have been instructed, sir, by the committee of one from each State, who were charged with the duty of reporting to this Con vention a series of resolutions, to present a report which I hold in my hand. And I beg leave to say powers on the other-not impairlug their present efficiency f and we deprecate all further agitation of the questions thus settled, as dangerous to our peace, and will discountenance all efforts to con tlnue or renew such agitation, vchpuver, wherever, or httoevr the attempt may be made; and we will maintain this system as tstential U the Nation ality of tit Whig party, and tie integrity pf tie Union. .- The resolutions as they were, read were several ly received, with demonstrations of applause, es pecially thce relating to the compromise meas ures. Mr. Choate addressed tho Convention fflsde 8pcech which was much applauded,. Among other remarks, he proceeded, in an eloquent strain to urea, that henceforward this issue of slavery he drawn from the political creeds and contentions of both the great parties of the country, which would have the effect of allaying the spirit of strife and securing the peace which we how so richly enjoy, Among the reason adduced why tho compromise measures should he sustained was one that' no man of honor might go out and advocate tho sup port of tho nominee on tbo ground that, by his election, agitation would ccaso, while another should advocate bis election on the ground that agitation would bo increased. Would not every man having a heart in bja, bosom regard with con tempt a whig going iqtp one region, and, from the Northern side of his mouth saying, "no platform, agitation forevsr," and then going into another and blowing out or the Southern side, "no plat form, but abetter in every man's breeches pocket Applause and laughter. Mr. Anderson, of Ohio also addressed the Con vention. He wsi for the passage of the omnibus and all its passengers. He regarded this platform as a trap to catch a man who was always known to have been in favor of the compromise. ; Ap plause.

Tho Whigs of the United States, in Convention assembled, adhering to the great conservative re publican principles by Which ttjey are controlled and governed, and now, as ever, relying upon the intelligence of the American people, with an abi ding confidence in their capacity for self-government, and their continued devotion to the consti tution and the Union, proclaim the flowing as political sentiments and determination, for the es tablishment and maintenance of which their na tional organization as a party js effected : 1. The government of the United States is Qf a limited character, and it is confine to the exer cise of powers expressly granted by the constitu tion, and such as may be necessary and proper for ' carrying the gran ted powers into full execution, and that all powers not thus granted or pecesssri ly Implied are expressly reserved to the States re spectively and to the people. 1 2. The State governments should be held se cure in their reserved rights, and the General Government sustained in its constitutional powers, and the Union should Jbe revered and watched over as "the palladium of our liberties." 8. That while struggling freedom, everywhere) enlists the warmest sympathy of the Whig party, we still adhere to the doctrines of the Father of his country, as announced in bis Farewell Addrcssi of keeping ourselves free from all entangling alli ances with foreign countries, And of never quit ting our own to stand upon foreign ground.
