JUSTICE.. October 21, 1844. From the Nashville Union. Wia. PIc.ENS' SPl.ECH AT SHELBYVILL. In the several notices which we have beretofore published in the form of letters and communications, tonching the late greatdemocratic mass ieeing at.Bhelby ville, Bedford county-no report, not even the substances ofihe speeches, made by the distingished guests from other States who were present on the occasion, have been given. Among other prominent citizens from abroad who were present by invitation, the Hion. F. v. PIcKxEs. of 6South. Garolinla. may' be mentioned as one who.signally distinguished himself by 4he eloquence, power, force, argument and ability of the address which he delivered to'the vast assembly of people w ho were collected together as attentive auditors on the occasion. A friend has had the kind niess to prepare from his notes, taken on the spot, the following outline of Mr. Pickens' remarks on two of the subjects which he discussed-Annexation, and the slanderous charge of lisunion, broughi by Mr. Clay and his factious followers against the Southern and Southiestern democra cy. The subjects of the tariff, distribn tion, bank, assumption of State debts, &c., were all haudled by Mr. Pickens with that force, clearness, argument and truth, which has given him so distinguished a reputation as a statesman, both in Con gress and before the people. After dis-. cussing these subjects, he took tilp the sub jects of Annexation and Disunion, and the following is the report of our friend-on the-accuraet of which we have the most implicit reliance-of the suidance of what he said of those subjects. H e sets the policy of Annexation in its true light, and re pels the slanderotas charge of. disunion with the force anid dignity becoming~a southern statesman and patriot. * SPEECH. Of the Hon F. WV. PtcKEsss, of South Carolina, being the substance of so much of his address before the Democratic itss Meeting of the citizens of Tennes see, at Shelbyville, Bedford county, in this State, on the 26th day of August 1844, as related to the subjects of An nexation of Texas to the United Slates, ani the- charge of Disunion. M~r. Pickens said, the question of the annexation of Texas next claimed his at tention. 'He considered it not as a party or sectional question, but as a national one in all its aspiects, There is no class 'of oui citIzens, not a portion of this glorious Republic, whose htappiness, and interests will not- be promoted by its accomplish ment. -The North, South, East and W~est are all interested in it-he considered it s in fluence on the commerce and mattufactures of the. country, as affording a great aud growing market foroursorplus productions; Jne military point of viewv, it would af foi-d a protection to the country at its most ininerable points, and increased security to the domestic; iristitutions of the South; -that-i't would be the insans of consolidat ing the Unrionr, and extending the bies sings of free, overnmieit and liberal insti HI enat itito a history of the country 6:iferring'io the solemn . obligations, con rained in the treaty-of 1803, to the govern ment of France and the people of Texas, that-as soon as -possible they shoutd lbe in *corporated into: the Union, and in the ineati time,-be pi-otected in the enjoyment of their property,; -liberty and religion ; 6nt that these had been violated in the surrender of the country to a foreig'n and d'esnoti6. government, without their con seint-detailed the history of its great strng toe for liberty and independetce, and its glortoaisconsummation Otn the field of San Jacinto.: -In a con.clnsive arguimentL and by an-.appeal to-the. established laws of nattons, he establishidr the right of Texas as the rightful goverinnent dejure as well as de facto-the doctriaes wihieb denied that the government of Texas, founded as it was upon the will of the people; was.a '---rghfutaovernrinett, had never beets. re *'b onizred on the American continent ;-that -the strdggle of that gallant people- was cwasifated by the principles of eur own revolmiish8ay siruggle, and that Texcas h avfiitegeght long years maintained its indepe daneiexico had lost her claims, * nd no.er - pwei- could lawfully in - hfr-o- i Unton. He quoted. Sfr'C1lay e letter-on the jiubject, and answer ' leng 4~ the argtu ~ment, that -it wouhe justcaus ror~ war ionstuaw with his course in 1824 and in 1827, when, as Secretary. under Mr. Ad airs, he attempted to buy it, and drow a parallel between the circumstances then and now. Then, Spain. to whom our Government in 1820 ceded it, had not only refused to acknowledge the independence of Mexico, but was actually prosecuting a vigorous and energetic war against her. Now, Saia Anna, at the time of his inglo rius defeat, had pleged himself never more to wage war with Texas. Since that pe riod no army has ever entered the territo ry ; not a hostile foot treads the soil of Texas. Texas had freguently challenged her eneny to the arbitrement of battle, but i: had never been accepted ; and no intilligent man believes that she could ever be subjugated. He took a rapid view of the consequences that would re sult in the event of its falling into the hands of England or commercial treaties being forned between them; exposed the policy of England, as disclosed in the speech of Lord Brougham in the British Parliament. and showed- that she was triking a blow at the institution. of slave rysaid-the peace and independence of this 'country. In contection with this branch of the subject, - he read from a spcech delivbeed recently by Mr. Vesb ster, at S'riel J. in which he made a irect e abolitionists of the north to 'rally against Mr. Polk, on the ground that'annexation would surely fol. low, and of fits'conneetion with slavery; showed that there as . a party in this country acting in concert with the govern. ment.of England, in their unholy crusade upon the rights of. the South, and the peace and safety of the Icountry, and their designs were one and .thesame. It was in this connectioli that he Alluded to the cry of Disimion jhai had been made by the federal party' from one end of the country to the other, forthe purpose of averting uttenition from"'their own. unholy cnd traitorous designs. Asato nhat whip stcr editors might say, or travelling dema gogues might echo, for vile partizan pur poses. he would not condescend to notice them. But the head and leader of the whig party had thought proper recently to embody the sentiment in a letter, and he would notice him. 'Mr. Clay had, not long since, travelled through South Caro olina, he had sliare I tthe hospitality of its citizens, and received that dis tinguished attlention due to his emineut character-But after this, lie no sooner reaches honie, han he, thinks proper to caterto. the base 'appetite of party, by charging upon the people of South Caro lina what'he knows to he a slander. If it was holy zeal for the Union that promp ted him to denounce South Carolina, where ivas his exuberant patrioutism when John-Q. Adams, in 1842, actually pre sented to the American Congress resolu tions to dissolve the Union? Why did tie pass by the ressolutions of Massuchusetts declaritg the Union dissolved if Texas were annexrd ? Why leave unnoticed the resolutions 'of Vermont, making the same declaration ? The reason was ob vious.-They were his bosom frien's, Between him and Mr. Adams, there i s a tie as indissoluble as that which conne ted the Siamese twins-a s'eparation would be a political death to both, as every one knew there had been a question of of adjourned veracity between them since the treaty of Ghent ; and the secret tran sactions of 1825 were yet to be deyeloped -when, by a reckless and pruffigate bar gain, they seized upon the power of the government in defiance of the popular will, and trampled ttpon the great prnei piles of re publican libprty. 'But because South Carolina does not choose to vote for Henry Clay,.a man wvho has made open w'ar upon her interests for 20 years, then, forsuot h ! she is to he denounced f'or Disuuion. Disloyalty to his person is disairetion to the Union I No-lie took the recent letter of M tlay, contaitnitng the itnfamous charge a~ nst South Carolina, and trampled it beneath his feet into the dust, with that acorn and contempt duet its vile demagogueism ; and thoee whot choose to he his servile and sycophaiitic followers take that and make the most of it.-The truth was, the federal party by rejecting the treaty of' annexation, know thut they have struck a blow at the peace and permanent independence ofthis Uni on, and cowered beneath the power and policy of England, and to avoId the just indignation of a betrayed people, they have the hardihood to charge upon South Car olina a wish to dissolve the Uniou. ^It may be true, that in a portion of'the State a few of her citizens, under a deep end biurninig senise of the wrotngs that has been inflicted en the South by the unwise ac tion of the Government, and the course pursued by the abolimiionists and the whig party in reference to the -Texas question, may have- manifested some excitement, but that was confined to a few ; and lie would say that no where was Union cher ished with greater fidelity than by a major imy of the pieoplle of S. C. For himself,, le appealed to his Maker for the truth of the assertion, that a distmion of this glari ous confed pracy never entered into his in agination. He would refer to a scen~e that Itranspired in the Congress of the UJnion, in 1837, of' whi'ch lie had" been reminded since he .came to the ground, by a- gentleman riow present, and who heard it. WVhen Mr. Adams, in his phutee declared that he'."would glory in'the day and hour when a dissolution of this Union would take place, if Texas were annexed to this country as a slave-State," he arose and replied that- he gloried that stchba sentiment had never been utredi by any Southern man, and rebukedl it 48 un'wvor thy of a mani who had filled the first of~ie in the Republic, and an outrage aponitne country-He would confess, that fdr the Union made by corruprt politicians withi associated-wealth and incorporated mo'n opolies-that Unign engendered, by .the foul embraces of mad ambitioand'hase avarce; a unnatural product, almonster God; loul loathsome filoated, and'.blood shot-len, from revolint in' pofis plarndered from labordaround' siose alrar, priests dyed anthe wool of' federaismn minister at much a 'shrine deWa~aorr .to' wor ship: But for'-olir- ovmbsTniort as it. canme from the 1ian 6our fathers the dispeoner 'of eqmtageb'rthens and equial' bienefits-that Unionf "ihieh has carried our -stars an d -psmatrmudph ovei every sea-thd!tesaspace at hbeiwe and powini abio idlih plrainE. he would spend to vindicate and delbud AND SUUTE CAROLINA'WOULD ADVE4 TO IT,- BEART AND RUUL, NON FOPEvER. In order to refresh the memories .of som of our readers, we-make the following e tracts from the proceedings of the Democr-d State Convention, which assemilld at Colu I bia, on the 22d or May 1843. These extr ts contain the doctrines of Mr. Calhoun with e gard to certain great and engrossinr qest' ns of the day. These doctrines are identical ith those of the Democratic Party of South ,ro. lina. Mr. Calhoun, it will be rememb ed, was a candidate for the Presidency at the Ime this Convention assembled. " And finally, may we not ask, wit out being thought to disparage the just mgrits of other candidates for the Presideiey, wbich one of them do his past history*nd opinions more thoroughly identify wit all the great articles of the Democratic c ed than Mr. Calhoun? He, as far bac as 1834. discountenanced 'he connexio.-of the Government with banks; and wheri in 1837, that connexion was broken assunder, he - was amongst the first to advocate the necessity lor the separation-to plant his foot, without fear of consequences, boldly in the front; and under denunciations add obloquy unexampled for their bitternessin political warfare, to take tip this great measure of reform, and by the force of hts decission and genius. principally contribu ted to sustain and pass it through ?

He recognizes nojustice in tariffs taxing une qually the labor and capital of the farmer. the planter, the merchant, the mechanic, the shipmaster, all other industri6us pur. suits. to give protection to and make the labor and capital of the manufacturer profit able.
