Pursuant to notice on Monday last
" ' l large number of the citizens of our
.District met in the Court Hons* tn
hear their able and indefatigable
llepresentative, Col. Orr, give an
account of his stewardship. Th?
Colonel, in a spcech of two hours
length, to which we listened with nil
diminished interest ran over tin
nets of injustice which had been per
petrated by the ruling majority in
Congress, and sketched in a graph it
and forcible manner their disastrous
consequences to the South ; he ex
hihited to th<* niinrls of lii? nn<1i?nn<
the evidence of n fierce and insatia
ble hostility on the part of that ma
jority to us and our institutions: h<
tpld how corruptions had crept int<
the Federal Government, and how
strange doctrines, sue)-, as were un
known to our fathers, had hecom<
the orthodox Federal Faith; aiu
how by them the character of the
Government was being, nay, hai
already been, changed from one o
limited to one of unlimited uowers.
For years the North had nourishei
dark and insidious designs agains
the independence of the South. Fo
years she had concealed in her mid
night councils, the toul and traitor
ous purpose of changing by silen
and imperceptible revolutions the
original character of the Fedcra
Government. At fust she approach
ed her ends by slow and cautiou
steps, stealing along through crook
tji .11 ^ - --
ru ituu sucrci ways, and while wi
slept in fancied security her wisard
were working their midnight spoils
by means of this dark enchant
ment, one by one had the bulwark
of the Constitution fallen, guaraut;
after guaranty had been swept aw a;
?power after power had been usurp
cd, until now she had U3 and th:
Constitution under her foot. nrw
backed by a fierce and turbulent ma
jority who were divided from the mi
nority by contending interests an<
geographical lines, she is ruling tin
^ land with a lordly and unlimite<
sway. In this headlong struggle fo
power no means had been too wick
ed to be used, and no institution to<
sacred to be touched by her foul am
l 1 kT
oiui^ nanus, jlno consider
at ions of justice, no feelings of hu
manUy, no principles of religion havi
been sufficient to restrain the Nortl
or to cause to her seared conscience
one pnn# of remorse. And now
emboldened by her late success anc
by our shameful defeat, she openly
avows the acccomplishment of i
purpose inc most fell and terribh
against which human reason cai
provide, or for which human pit]
can shudder, and which, if accom
plished would present to the work
a picture of desolation and blood tlx
darkest to be found on the annals o
human woe. Fifteen bankrupt anc
exhausted States contending in r
strifo of races with all the fierce ani
ungovernable hostility of servile wai
for such would be the consequences
which the North wnnl/t

course are wo to pursue to escapc
from the many dangers which threaten,
and the answer given, dissolve
the Union and establish a .Southern
Confederacy, Ihe speaker was greeted
with shouts of applause.
After Mr. Orr had concluded his
speech, as will be seen by reference
to another page, a Southern Rights
Association was formed, and goodly
number of! he signatures oft he crowd
obtained, and many persons who were
desirous were forced to go away
without an opportunity to sign.
*? We have heard doubts expressed
of thotnith and loyalty of the people
who inhabit these hilt* and mountains,
would to C?yd the "whole South
were as true and loyal as they, there
would be no submissionists or compromisers
then, for the soil we tread &
| upon is not the soil to give birth to 1 ^
| traitors, nor is the air we breathe the j a
air to give vitality to traitors; and | g
there is a spirit abroad among these | '
hills and mountains?a love of free- ^
dom and a hatred to tyranny?a '(
spirit which has dwelt with us since ' ((
the days of the Revolution, a spirit n
which has Made every hamlet a tem- v
; pie and every hearth-stone an altar ?
j of liberty, and which is firing the
hearts of our people to-day, and y
which, when the hour of danger shall J
1 come, will nerve their hands to emulate
the great deeds of their brave ^
i and noble sires.

years, the oilier day expressed to u.s
his opinion that tho crop vvould not

The amount of force can, in any year

Constitutional Onwrvrmv iv
Indiana.?This convention has adopted
a proposition for biennial sessions
\ p-oposition is also pending to prevent
the emigration of fr<*e negroes

law is expedient. The S*a'e Journal
says that there w'll probably be no
separate submission of the regro
question 1o the peo|)!e. and very few
mom1 e s favor its incorporation in
the constitution.
An important uucstion has been
raised in the Northern prints by
those who arc favorab'c to the execution
of the fugit ive slave act. It
hds been contended 1 lint the issue of
absconded slaves born in ihose por
lions of ihe Union in'o which thev
have fled, are not to be classed with
their i arents as fugitives from labor.
This is an attempt to withdraw the
question ef recovery of runaway
slaves from its true character as one
of property* and place it in a false
category as one of personal right.?
The law of property m the South with
regard to slaves must determine this
question. That law makes the issue
of si ves by the mothers side the
property of the owner of tl e parent.
The status of the slave, where held
as property, must regulate the construction
of an act passed to carry
out a provision of the constitu'ion intended
to protect the rights of property
in slaves. If slavery is on institution
governed by local law, all the
incidents and consequenccs which attach
to it by that law come of force
by necessary implication. Whatever
i? the law where slaves arc held
with regard ty their issue must from
the rule of interpretation for a statute
of congres, designed to secure the
owner in his right#, precisely as such
a rule would gouern the courts of the
State from wnich the slave had fled.
It will nos do, therefore, to shield the
offspring of the female slave from the
eflectsof the late act of congress for
reclaiming fugitives slaues, under the
plea that such offspring were born in

The British in India.? John Hull
is very ready to certsure other peoples
conduct but not apt to amend
his own. At present he is disgracing
hunt-elfin India. Since the close of
the Sikh war, the troops there have
fallen into a state of such disorder,
that Gtin. Napier, their late commauper,
has more than once called them
a disgrace to humanity- Lately, at
Allipore, a native vill.igo reaeuted
some insults to its women. In revenge
for this, the officers permitted
a recklessmob of soldiers to sack the
place. Houses were pulled down,
women publicly and ignominiously
stripped; the rings wnicn females
there wear in their noses were focibly
torn away; and one young woman,
who.-e condition should have made
her an obiect of peculiar sympathy,
was brutally run through with a hay
onet, so that she died. Those atrocities
are hitherto unpara!e|ied, at
