Yes! Amos Kendal, born ;d bred in an Abolition State-having never owned a slave,and though a vile Abolitionist himself, like to be Martii Van liuren's noiiiee, this man is brought before the people of South Carolina as ai examile of purity. honesty and veracity- the fountin whence one party draws all its truths; whilst Gei. Green and others, who have nobly defen ded the rights of tile South for many years, are denounced as the vile and prolligato of the Union. Something was said about "particular religious denmuninutions," which from tie garbled accounthof the leared Trio, would seem perfect nonsense to one0 who did not hear rhe -remarks of the speaker. The correct smtement is this, it was su)posed that young mien would adhere to the poli tical faith of their atcestors ani friends 'till arrived at years of imatutrity, hut if upro deliberteio itvestigimioti ol the su bject, they then dil'ered witti them, it was their duty and their privilege to change their fai i; and this wasillustrated by reference to the religious sects of the country. The Speaker is, moreover. accuaed of at temptintg to at ouse tile dutltini party feel ings of the Union micn antl Nuilliers. This we are bound to say, is incorrect; the speak er has iany persoual f'riwnds ofrihe Umon party in the district, anit could have nea ther interest nor depgu to etleet in beveriug the honds of friendship between the two pnrties-But his object was(and he certainly did accomphsli it) to shiew tle iconisisien cy of the Nullifiers and tie complete de sertion of the principles for which they con tended in l82S-32--If they were i error then. why not acktiwi ledge it--why accuse Mr. Va;n Buren of ;a ciatige ofpriu ciples of which lie is enutirely Inioceit. The charoe (of Feder,o-;iji and Auoli tioitmm aainst General Ilarrison was re futed, not by the testimoies of an "old lady'' alone, but by his hi.tory. votes, speeches. letters &c. and the faict of Gen.

Mr. larris, it is true, did challenge dis cussion from which the Harrison party have never shruik, knowing that tiie. have every thiig to gain, and nothing to loose by discus-iot. Mr. Vardlaw did appear, but whether he received more tip. plause than the other speaKers, is questtin able. We admit they were muco louder, as it his palrty were determined to succeed by noise, ifihey failed by argument.
