No party founded on religious or political intolerance towards one class of American citizens, whether born in our own or in a foreign land, can long continue to exist in this country. We are all equal .before God and the Constitution ; and the dark spirit of despotism and bigotry which -would create odious distinctions among our fellow-citizens, will be speedily j rebu ked by a free and enlightened public opn ion. ' - I ! The agitation on the question of 'domes tic slavery has too long distracted and di vided the people of this Union and aliena ted their affections from each other. . This .agitation has assumed many forms since its -commencement, but lit now seems to be di rected chiefly to the Territories, and judg ing from its present character. I think we ny safely anticipate that it is rapidly ap proaching a "finality." The recent legts Jation of Congress respecting domestic sla Tery, derived, as it has been, from the orig inal and pure fountain of legitimate politi cal power, the will of the majority, prom ises ere long, to allay the dangerous ex citement. This legislation is founded upon principles as ancient as free government it self, and in accordence with them, has sim jly declared that the people of a Territory, like those of a Slate, shall decide or them elves, whether slavery shall or shall not exist within their luoii. " j Trie Nebraska-Kansas Act does no more than give the force of law to this elemen tary principle of sejfgovernment ; 'declar ing it to be uihe true intent and meaning of this act not to legislate slavery into any Territory or Stnte, ijor to exclude it; there from.; but to leave the people thereof per fectly free to form and regulate their do mestic institutions in iheir own way, sub ject only to the Constitution of the United Slates." This pri .piple will surely not b controverted by any individual of any par tjr professing devotion to popular govern ment. Besides, how vain and illusory would any other' principle prove in practice in regard to the Territories! 'This is a p. p axe ut from the fact admitted by hII, that after a Territory shall have entered the Union aud become a State, no Constitution al power would then exist which could prevent it from either abolishing or esiab lishing slavery, as he case may be, accor ding to its sovereign will and pleasure. Most happy would it be for the country if this long agitation were at an end. Du ring its whole progress it has produced no practical good to any human being, whiUt it has been the source of great and dan gerous evils. It has alienated and estran ged one portion of jibe . Union from the oth er, and has even seriously threatened its very existence. lo my own personal knowledge, it has produced the impression among foreign nations that our great and glorious confederacy is 'n constant danger of dissolution.. This does us serious inju ry, because acknowledged power and sta bility always romijiand respect among na tions, and are among the best securities against unjust aggression and in favor of the maintenance of honorable peace. May we not hope that it is the mission of the Democratic jparty, now the only sur viving con8TViitive party of the country, ere long to overthrow all sectional parties and restore the peace, friendship and mu tual confidence jrbich prevailed in the good old time, arfiong the different mem bers of the confederacy. Its character is strictly national, and it therefore asserts no principle for the guidance of the FeiUyral Government which is not adopted and sus tained by its members in each and every State. For this Reason it is everywhere Che same determined foe of all geographi cal parties, so much and so justly dreaded by the Father of jhis Country. From its veYy nature it must continue to exist so long as there is a Constitution and a Union to preserve.. A conviction of these truths tias induced many of the purest, the ablest And most independent of our former oppo nents, who have 'differed from us in limes gone by upon old and extinct party issues, to come into our! ranks and devote them selves with us, to the cause of the Consti tution and the, Union. Uder these cir cumstances, I raost cheerfully pledge my celf. should the nomination of the Conven tion be ratified byjthe people, that all the power and influence, constitutionally pos sessed by the Executive, shall be everted, in n firm but conciliatory spirit, during the single term 1 shall remain in -'office to re store the same hurmony among the sister States which prevailed before this apple of discord, in the form of slavery agitation, bad been cast iriio their midst. Let the members of the family abstain from inter meddling with the exclusive domestic con cerns of each other, and cordially unite, oo fbe basis of perffc equality Mnong them selves, in promoting the great national ob jects of common interest to all, and the good -work will be instantly accomplished. - la regard to our foreign policy, to which . . t .-. yoa have referred kryour coffimuuication, it js quite impossible- for any human fore knowledge to prescribe rules jn ad vancej to regulate the conduct of a- future admin istration in all the -exigenc es which fny arise in our varioqs.Vnd" ever changing re lations with foreign -powers - - The Fedei ai Government musrof necessity exercise a sound discretionjri ".dealing with interna 1 tional questions as- they may occur ; but this under the strict responsibility which the Executive mqsi always fee Jtto the peo-ple-pf the United Slates and ths judgment of posterity. You '"will ; therefore excuse me for not entering hito particulars; whilst I heartily concur with you in the general sentiment, that our foreign affairs ought to be conducted with such wisdom and firm ness as to assart the prosperity of the peo ple at .home, whilst the Interests and honor ol our country- are 'wisely, bat inflexibly maintained brod4 Oar foirWgn policy" ought ever to be basedl'dpon. lab principle, of doing justice to'all'oatits, aud requit ing justice from thera in return ; and from this principle I shall never deplrt. ; Should ,1 be placed in the, Executive Chair, 1 shall use my best exertions to cul tivate peace and friendship with all nations, believing this to -be our highest policy as well as our most imperative-duty ; but at the same time, I shall . never forget that in case the necessity should arise, which 1 do not now apprehend, our national right and national honor must be preserved at all hazards and at any sacrifice Firmly -convinced that a special Provi dence governs the affairs of nations, let us humbly implore His continued blessing up on our country, and that He may avert from us the punishment we justly deserve for being discontented and ungrateful whilst enjoying privileges above all nations, under such a Constitution and such a U nion as has never been vouchsafed to any other people. Yours, very respectfully, - JAMES BUCHANAN. TREMENDOUS FIRE AT SVHACUSE. N. Y. LOSS ABOUt ONE MILLION OF DOLLARS. Stracuse, November 8. -At three o' clock this morning the largest fire that has ever visited our city broke out in the first ward, and, in the short space of three hours, over twelve acres were burnt, and about one hundred buildings consumed The fire originated in the barn back of Grant's i hotel, which had hot been occupied for I three years. It immediately communicated , to Oram s hotel, occupied 03" barney Grant, which was consumed. The loss on the the buildi-g is estimated at $5,000 The store of Mr McGuire then caught fire a nil was soon burned down Joss $5,000. The flumes then spread to the new and mag nificent building owned by Messrs. Slatter ly & Ford, and soon it was in a mass of ruins. It was occupied by the Messrs. Lynch Bros., who hud just got in an entire new stock of goods. The loss on the building will be about $10,000 insured $4,000. The Lynches will lose about $10 000 insured $3 000. A large num. ber of wooden buildings in the rear and ad joining block were consumed. The Avery block, owned by L. G. Ave ry was entirely destroyed. Loss $10,000 insurance not ascertained. -The bank of Salina was also consumed loss on ihe building $6,000. All the books and pa pers of ihe Bank were saved. The Post office and Telegraph office were destroyed, but we learn that all the letters and papers were saved. The water at the Reservoir was turned off and consequently the hy drants were useless. A strong west wind was blowing at the the time, and our citi zens were compelled to stand and see their property consumed with nothing to slop its progress. The entire loss cad fall little short of one million of dollars, and may reach more. Over one hundred families have been "rendered homeless. The fire was undoubtedly the work of an incendia-4 y- , , , AN EMBARASSINQ PREDICAMENT A gentleman tiom a distant Slate came to" Boston a week or two since, says the Transcript, to be married. Desiring to have his nuptials celebrated in the Park street Church, and under standing that the Rev. Mr. Slone," of that church, resided in Brookline, he proceeded to that town and unfortu nately called upon Rev. Dr Stone, of the Episcopal church in that place, and made' an arrangement with him to sol emnize the marriage services in the church 00 the next sabbath, half an hour before the regular services com menced. Punctual to the hour, the gentleman took his station in the broad aisle of the Park street Church, waiting the appearance of the minister. The party stood in the aisle until near the lime for the commencement of the ser vices, when the attention ot the sexton was attracted to the circumstance. Upon behig informed of the interesting ua tu re of their visit to the church, the sexton waited upon Mr. Stone in his study, who, was of course much sur prised, having no knowledge of the par ties, but who at once proceeded to re lieve their embarrassment by solemnis ing the marriage service. . In the mean time the Rev. Dr. Stone of Brookline, was waiting in full cauotiicals in his church, momentarily expecting the par lies who had engaged his services and concluded finally th3t He had been hum bugged. - A GUARDED ANSWER. In one of our court' lately, a man who was Called on to appear as a witness could not be found. On the Judge asking where be was, a grave elderly gentleman rose up, and, wi'h much emphasis, said. , - Your honor, he's gone." ' ; ' "Gone I , gone !" said the Judge, "where is he gone 1" . ? - , uThat cannot inform you, replied the communicative gentleman, 'but he is dead This is considered the most guarded an swer on record. - - - ?. - WILJlLWiOiN & WEL.
