many secretaries have been sacrifice d. Who next is
TO fail victim to the heartless policy OF Van Buren,
isn't
But let us moment examine the few words we
have quoted from the Boston Democratic Review,
which the Globe so heartily commends TO every "de-
mocrat" in the Union. We gather from them the
following admissions:
l. The democratic party had become in many
places exceedingly corrupt
!. short time ago no man that had reputation
70 loose among the democratic party dared boldly TO
advocate true democratic measures and doctrines
D. But few years ago they, the democratic party,
were opposed 10 the Sub Treasury and treated that
very proposition with contempt
T. Gen. Jacksons proclamation against nullihca-
lion, written by that old democrat Edward Living
slon, surpassed in lis strong centrazng doctrines,
any thing that the bodes leaders Of the federal party
ever attempted.
5. The speech Of Governor Marcy, In the Senate
Of the United States declaring that "to,he victor be-
longed the spoils' is pronounced and denounced as
disgraceful and demoralizing.
The above distinct propositions and confessions
are contained in part OF one paragraph. PROPOSE
tons which the whole party advocated and defended
from one end Of the country TO the other and confess
sions uf impolicy and departure from principle
which we began TO oppose early in 1887, and for do
ing so were denounced as (eaevalist by The organs
Of the administration
Now, indeed. the GLoBE has the unblushing mo-
destyto commend sentiments which were worse than
heresy when uttered them TO the perusa of every
true democrat Of the Union! Conscience! thou art
indeed jeicei

posing important and highly desirable amendments to

Some Of them went so far as TO challenge him to
fight duel on the subject. One IN particular named
the rifle as weapon, and assigned time and place
giving him the only alternative of being murdered
! In the streets. He wished Il understood however
that in noticing them he had no view of asking the
action OF the House upon them, as question Of pri-
vilege.
Mr.. A. went on 10 say that from The time The frs,
petition had been presented in the House for lhe
abolition of slavery In the District of Columbia he
had never voted in favor Of the object And iftbat
question were to be decided this day, he would not
vote for It. as In his opinion II was NOT expedient
He would not say that his opinion might moi he
changed amer full and fair discussion Of The sub
jec but his present opinion was decidedly adverse
10 such proposition.
He said he had read with much care the arguments
adduced in favor of the abolition of slavery in The
District but they had failed 10 convince him Of the
! proprely Of IL. II was evident however that h..
! had been misunderstood on the subject in the South
and hence the origin OF the letters he had received
| He could not believe that there was cause for Sc
rious apprehension, however as il was much easier
10 talk about numbering man than 10 do Il; although
the subject of abolition may be Of sufficiently ex-
citing nature TO arouse the passions osome 10 the
| performance Of such acts.
MIR. A. then alluded 10 the number of petitions he
was constantly receiving, accompanied with press
ing letters desiring him TO do justice TO them. I'm
der such circumstances he said he felt il his duty 10
present them sngly and individually to the House
as he thought the petitioners had right to have
their petitions considered in respectful manner He
made that explanation in order that the House might
know the nature and circumstances under which he
| acted, and with a view Of removing the odium
which had been east upon him
He then adverted TO the resolutions offered by him
on former dav, relative TO The conduct Of MIR
Stevenson our Minister to England, and maintained
that in doing he had been ac,uated by no person.
al feeling bur because be considered II the duty of
the House 10 take the matter under consideration.
Mr. A. concluded by showing that even among the
abolitionsts Of the North he was not considered as
advocate TO the full extent'of the principles Tut
ground Of his uncompromsing adherence TO the
right of petition, which RICH, he would, at all risks
ever maintain.
