On the platform were seated a number of prominent Dem- j, ocrats, among whom were P. W.

I speak as a Western man opposing all schemes of di vision still opposing them but I speak to warn. The erection of the Mississippi States into a republic standing on its re sources besought by South and East choosing for itself its own cheapest,-best outlets to the ocean and markets of the world is no dream. It is tne tarn oi every other Western man. Western nidi fall into the scheme with a facility shocking to the olden sense of nationality. I speak of these schemes only to disapprove and to warn ; as in 1861 iu my place in Con gress, I warned of similar schemes of di vision. Cheers Governor Seymour - great cheers means much and well when he says the Western and .Uentrai States desire to stand in the Union protected by all the muniments of the Constitution. They will in time restore that Union let New England do as she please, a voice, "Let her slide. I hey do not intend to desert the ship but they do not intend . to be controlled by the Constitution-breaking, nogro loving phariseeism of New ' . England. Hisses.

Is free trade good when it takes off the duty on madder aud coloring matter for the benefit of manufacturers, but bad if it lets ,' in free cotton and woolen fabrics? Is it right to tax whisky made out of Illinois icorn. and let the. tariff remain high on llhode Island screws? Do you understand that public meetings West are resolving f- to be no longer tributary to New England cupidity, and that men cry out so wildly, "New England fanaticism and peculation ; have made disunion.

' - But these abuses may be remedied by a new Congress. They would be borne, but ' unhappily they are associated with an element harder to master Puritanism. rHisses.1 . This is bred in the bone.

I would not confound the Parkers and Phillipses and the lesser spawn of transcendentalism with the Choates and Curtises, who have cultivated the graces of civil order. I speak of that .ruling element in New England, called Puritanistu, which in Lancashire, in Hol land, at Plymouth or at Boston, ever pre sents the same selfish, pharisaical, egotistic and intolerant type of character.; We find it in our politics to-day as the Tudors found it hundreds of years ago, ever med dling, and only willing to' concede when it cannot help itself. Cheers. Their key note is that slavery is. the cause of this war, and must be extirpated. The truth is, that slavery was meddled with and re turned in violence what was given in wrath and malice. But it does not thence follow that slavery wa3 the cause of the violence; The doctrine of the French so cialist that property is a robbery and therefore should be abolished, is a sample of the same fallacy.. : Abolition is, in the moral sense, the cause of this war. t Cheers. It is the offspring of Puritan.: ism. The' history of Puritanism shows that it always sought to introduce the mor al elements involved in slavery into poll tics, and thereby threw the Church into the arena of politics, made it a wrangler about human institutions, divided churches aud begat ' sectional asperities. Perhaps Wendell Phillips might not be considered by some as a representative of the Repub lican party. But he does truly represent the Administration, with its proclamation of liberty. -Look at the votesin Congresa on a motion of the speaker to lay on the tabic a resolution by Thaddeus Stevens hisses to raise 150,000 negroes. Hiss es. . Why,- one would judge from that that the white race in this country, like the Yankees calf, was ''pretty nearly gin eout." Great laughter ; a voice "They want to get the niggtfrs cheap, so that they won't have the trouble to colonize them." I cannot sec any special difference between the Republicanism that sustains emanci pation proclamations and the real old genuine Congo Abolitionism. Cheers. They are two separate links of the same sausage made out of the same dog. Great and continued applause. These extracts were the germ of that Abolition power now overshadowing us. The influence invoked by these men was the religious seutimeu t in a crusade against slavery. This same tendency to make Government a moral reform society is .observable in the laws punishing Quakers, against smokiug tobacco, against making mince pies and walking in agarden on a Sunday. Laughter. The Maine liquor laws aud tax laws against whisky to stop its use, came from the same Puritan ten dency to mix politics and morals, to the detriment of both. The same thing is observable in the opinion of a Boston law yer, now the counsel of the War Depart ment, Mr. Whiting, who upholds the "right of jjovernment to interfere with slavery, Mormonism, or any other institu tion, condition, or social status into which the subjects of the United States can en ter." Under this doctrine proclamations against slavery are issued. . Kather than yield this censorship over the morals of the nation, new England welcomed war. "That's so !" It is not the first time she has convulsed the nation for her dog mas. : She did it iu 1798. Mr. Cox quo ted Dr. Lord to illustrate the tendency of Puritanism to reduce God to a subservi ency to its preconceived idsas, which, he said were, tho cause of our disorders. The moral balance was deranged between Church and State upon the slavery ques tion. In illustration of these truths, Mr. Cox said : "Every Sabbath you have a sermon from Dr. Cheever, demonstrating that our failures in battle are owiug to the pleasures of God, because of the sin of slavery. He forgets that when we are beaten we are beaten by slaveholders, and that God, by his foolish logic, must be a pro slavery being. The same sort of doc trine was announced by Massachusetts in 1676, wheu Randolph came to New Eng land from the parent Government to find out the cause of the Indian wars. They solemnly announced that they were a pun ishment from God, because the men wore periwigs made of womeu's hair, and the women wore borders iu. their hair also for profancness in the people not frequent ing the meetings, and others going away before the blessing is pronounced! Laugh ter. . The original defects of the Puritan pattern are copied by the present stock. Mr. Cox quoted from history to show how, under the plea of military necessity, the saints robbed the Indians of their lands. He proved that the Puritans persecuted all who differed from them, even those of the Church of England, although when they left England they called it their "dear mother Church." How they inaugurated the spy system in their midst; how they hunted out little girls and old women for witches ; how Baptists Anabaptists, Fanii lists, Quakers, all were . persecuted and punished ;, how the Indians were trans formed into sooty devils, to confiscate their lands; how Roger Williams, Mrs. Hutch inson, Coddington and others wern treat ed and exiled ; how every petty presbyter was made a Pope, every village Paul Pry an inquisitor, and every female communi cant a spy for the detection of the eighty two heresies denounced by the Boston Synod ; hisses, all these were brought forward as illustrative of this amiable character. Murders, maimings and cru elties worse than those of the pit were in flicted by these men, not alone upon each other, but upon the Indian aud the peace ful people of Arcadia. Halleck, a New England poet, in vain ransacked history for worse crimes than those committed by the saints iu peaked hat and ruff. Herod was bad. Worse were The fiends of France, whose cruelties decreed Those dexterous drownings in the Loire and Rhine. ' ' But these Were at their worst but copyists, second hand, Of our shrined, "sainted sires the Plymouth Pilgrim band. Mr. Cox paid New England a compli ment for her revolutionery resistance ; but non constat, she . would have resisted a government of angels. ' He considered the boast that the Pilgrims were the au thors of democratic liberty here as utter ly groundless, proving it from history. The compact of the Mayflower was forced from the Pilgrim leaders. Elliott, the his tonkin, says they did not mean a dem ocracy. No man could be a voter uflless a member of the church, and Judge Story says this disfranchised five-sixths of the people. The penal laws, were framed from the Geotoo code. They punished accord ing to caste. " 'Such was therule too, in Harvard College. New England yet has her Brahmin and 'her Sootee caste. ' The laws even regulated the apparel of men and women, on the Gentoo caste princple. Years of contests for the rights of the people against the magistrates and church leaders eventuated at last in the final eman cipation of the people by the act of the King of England, Charles II. Under the oligarchic rule of the church fearful de- moralization resulted. In trying to make the church political they did - not make the State religious. Is this the civiliza tion to be commended to us now in our trials? - It comes with no grace to the West, at least. What -has she done for the West? Governor Andrew boasts greatly; let us see ! It has sent us such men as Douglas; Seymour and McClellan. Great cheering, . '"Three cheers for Mc Clellan." As to New York, men of lib eral mind but liberal because they have repudiated Puritan teaching. . Cheers. It gave Samuel Adams for the revolution Choate for counsel against sectionalism; Breene and Stark in war, but neither of Puritan! principles. It gave us Arnold in the revolution, General Hull for the late.: war, and General Butler Qa voice, "Old traitor!" - for - this war. Hisses. J Tt voted against Jefferson and Jackson at first against the acquisition of Louisiana. It thundered against those who "differed in doctrine" three hundred years ago.; and its echo is reproduced at New Orleans, in the order from that precious saint, Butler, to close the churches because the ministry do not pray according to Butler's direc- tions. Hisses and goans. It stole the land of the Pequods, just as now it slips through our lines to dicker in Secession cotton, and it will sanction it through the same goodly doctrine. Instead of making the church the tomb it made it the theater of dissension into the Stated Its litera ture was ever vain-glorious. It has gained much in style of late, but it has lost more, in sincerity. It yet, as of yore, compla cently assumes to be a part of the God head. Applause. Its hJrshness made dissent upon dissent, until, through vari ous isms, it has reached infidelity. It is not content with the order of Providence. It must drive the charioto f the sun, and with what result the civil war show3. A voice, "that's so." Its peculiar civilizi tion is the parent of Abolition which found in the Puritan soil the right spot for its bad seed. Therefore it flourished to the overthrow of civil liberty, by inter meddling with State institutions and social systems, entirely alien to itself under tie Constitution. Holding to the higher law and obtaining office under its banner, it spread distrust and apprehension of its excesses among one half of -the States, and rash and unjustifiable revolution was the consequence.' It rallied all its isms to one focus abolitionism and became ag gressive.. It has tried to imitate the clas sic sorceress by giving a new youth and beauty to the state by dismembering it. r Applause. It has substituted a panthe-' ism or platonisu&v -religion, and'Stttik in it that docility ' which is childlike Snd Christian. At the New England dintier here Beecher boasted that the Yankee was the most prying, meddlesome creature in the world the- pickpocket of creation the born radical of civilization '-the head in the body of the Union, etc. Hisses. This is the old egotism. It is this claim of all the intelligence and conscience which comes from Boston and is copied in Brooklyn which has beeu sung by the Puritan for three hundred ysars through his own nasal organ in his own praise. Great cheering and laughter. Its source is from Hindostan. It is even a bad ex aggeration of the Colonial Puritanism. It comes from the coterie of transcenden talism around Boston, ... whose most clever exponent is Emerson. It has its priests, high and low; from the great Chauning, who ministered in holy things with mauy enlarged graces of nature, to the little Channiug, who creeps of Sundays into the Senate Chamber at Washington, to preach abolition and vilify Democracy. ; But this transcendentalism is stolen by this uni versal pickpocket from the Vedas Emer son, Parker, - Phillips, Alcott, only copy the Brahmins. Their doctrines are not strictly materialism or pantheism ; great laughter but they absorb God and nature in man, and make the soul all in all. One of their philosophers holds himself per sonally responsible for the obliquity of the earth's axis ; and of course for air other obliquities, slavery included. Emerson holds that he is God. God is everything; ergo, he (Emerson) is everything. Great merriment. Do you wonder, therefore, that he makes the negro a part of himself and his equal? Increased laughter. The Hindoo said, "Rich is that universal self which thou worshipest as the soul." Emerson says, "Nothing is if th.oij a.rt not; thou art under, over all ; thou dost hold and cover all ; thou art Atlas; thou art Jove." The Sanscrit has the . most per feet description of this idcalogisljc Yan kee :. "I am generation ; I am dissolu tion ; . I am death and immortality; I am entity and nonentity. . Among mountains I am Himalay ; ". among floods the ocean ; among elephants the everlasting. Kg ele phant !" Great laughter.., j'he Brah min of Boston attains to such excellence, for he follows the direction of the Vedas and contemplates heaven by squinting like Butler laughter, with both eyes at the tip of his own nose. ; Continued merri ment. By such processes of unification they proved black and white to be "all one thing." The speaker then deduced from this the infidelity of Parker the skepticism which such a philosophy has introduced. Having traced all these Pu ritan elements which have fomented trou ble, he followed its course in a political point, of view from 1787 till now. " It ever sought to centralize and encroach upon others. When called upon to make sac rifices, as in the wars of this" country, she has been laggard and loth to ruake them. There are nojj 19,000 deserters from the Massachusetts troops. She forgot in 1812 her hatred of State- rights, when the Gov ernor of Massachusettsrefused troops to Madison agftinst Enghvnd. She fostered secession in the Hartford Convention, and dissension when Texas was admitted. She discouraged the war with Mexico by pas quinade and pulpit. Her day of reckon ing howeerj.-has- comeJShe will not be thrust out of .the. Union, but she will be humiliated in it. ," Already her proclama tions, running counter to the-popular sen timent, 'have produced a paralysis of, the State.'i.: ',' '-:;','i'.: ' Where,' then, is their relief in war? War has been called a wholsale grave dig ger who works for wages. ' :Wages may bring New England to her senses. What Wages ? 'A quarter of a million of North ern -not to count Southern men perish ed ' already. Fortunes totter, . industry palsied, bankruptcy soon to follow this riot in speculation. ; Such war, with the gib- bering abolition fiend behind it, produces ho' Union , It is not intended to produce Union unless slavery dies.". But it is de-" termined to prevent the Democracy from restoring the Union, , by making division eternal. But, by the God of our fathers ! though these States may be torn apart temporarily ' by the extremists, the Dem ocracy, if it takes a lustrum to do it, will never cease to labor until the old Govern, ment and Union is ours again. : Tremen dous cheering ; threa cheers for the speak er three cheers for Ohio. Let the Mid dle and Western and Border States stand firm. The dissonant din of these idealo gists of New England will be drowned in the popular voice; the fratricidal hate they have engendered will be assuaged, and into the lacerated bosom of this na tion will be poured the hallowed and heal ing spirit of mutual confidence-and concil iation. . Thus will the nation reform itself. Tremendous and continued applause. ... Coming to grief Some of the vile tools of tyranny are already coming tjb grief. The Police Commissioners of New York City, holding their offi ces under and by virtue of State , Au thority, allowed themselves to be set aside by a creature of the Lincoln Imperialism named John A. Kenedy who usurped their functions. . Gov. Seymour has summoned the truculent Coiiimissioners before him to answer for thoir conduct in the affair.

BEiflAREST Physician, Surgeon and Obstetrican OFFICE S. E. corner of Washington and Sansome streets, San Francisco, Cal. Ofiice hours, from 9 A. M. till 8 P. M. Consultations Free. Thirteen years residence and uninterrupted practice in my profession in California, has ena bled me to thoroughly perfect myself in the proper treatment and cure of diseases in this climate ; the ooncurrence of all reliable testimo ny going to show that practice on the Pacific requires very material modifications ol the old stereotyped formnlas hitherto pursued in the Eastern States. . Like all other sciences the practice of the Medical profession is progressive in its character, and I deem it the proper time that some of the profession should manifest courage enough to break through and assault the old barriers and prejudices of the prescribed laws and rules that have hitherto fettered the advancement of medi cal science, hanging, incubus-like, over its de velopments, and give our patients the unrestrict ed benefit of all that is good and useful in all the PATHYS under the names of HYDRO PATHY, ALLOPATHY, HOMEOPATHY, ELECTROPATHY, or any other name. I have given serious attention to all of them, and find much that is good in each. AVith a little com mon sense combined, I have found mcst admi rable results emanating from my treatment of disease peculiar in their developments on the Pacific slope. It is not without mature deliberation that I have taken this step of advertising my name as a Doctor of "Specialities." I know full well that I shall meet with the '-cold shoulder" per haps with the frowns and chagrin, of my old as sociates in the profession. Be it so, I am satis fied that I am right, and take an unprejudiced and liberal view of the whole matter from this stand point, and knowing that I am right, I shall not be easily intimidated from , my purpose. One thing may be assured, I shall do nothing that is ungentlemanly or unbecoming the profession-. With-this statement,-1 -shall leave my professions in the hands of a discriminating public. - . It is the first time in my long practice that I have evpr advertised my profession through the medium of a circular, and have only consented to do so now after years of persuasion by nu merous friends, and the thorough conviction of its nroprietv. Having weighed the subject pro and eon, there is nothing to be discovered but fair and honorable justification in advertising my name and business. My aim is, and always has been, to "guarantee" nothing but what I think myself competent to perform ; and there is no class of maladies under the head of CHRONIC or S PECIFIC diseases, as it has presented itself in California that I have not thoroughly and ef fectually cured even when there was scarcely life enough left to build a hope upon. EF- DR. DEMAREST, as is well known, has always been a friend to suffering humanity a fact that hundreds can testify to, who have known me through thirteen years' practice here. My charges are always exceedingly moderate, and my treatment has uniformly given satisfac tion. My intention is to devote myself more es pecially to office practice and consultations. This is quite enough for one man to do. - - - With an experience of twenty years practice, endorsed by a large number of patients, I com mit myself to the public for their approval. Seek advice in time, and place confidence in no one unless you have previously made inqui ries in regard to his skill and standing in his profession. All advertising physicians are not to be trusted ; and so far as I am concerned, I hope you will fully convince yourself ofmy standing before engaging my services. I am well known in this community, but strangers throughout the country having been so often de ceived, it will be a difficult matter I know, to convince them ; therefore, I say, convince your self before you call. My office is easily found Southeast corner of Washington and Sansome streets nearly oppo site the Post Oflice, over Ullman's Book Store. Below will be found a few of the testimonials received by Dr. Demarest previous to his leav ing home for this country in 1840: - New York, Jan. 14, 1848. . This may certify that Dr. J. D. Demarest, by the assiduity and attention which he has given to his studies, and his uniformly good conduct, justifies me in believing that those among whom he may be placed, can repose conndence in nis professional attainments. VALENTINE MOTT, . Prof, of Surgery, N. Y. University. I concur in the favorable expressions of my colleague. SAM'L H. DICKSON. Professor of Theory and Practice of medicine, N. Y. University. MARTIN PAINE. Professor Materia Medico, N. Y.University. This may certify that Dr. J. D. Demarest has been in my office for tome time past, and has attended a number of my patients for me, with perfect satisfaction both to himself and them. I therefore take pleasure iu recommending him to any person or persons requiring medical service. I can also speak highly of hU maral, as well a3 his professional character, J. WELDONFELZ. M. D.
