The PhilantEropist, it will be remem.
bered, is the Abolition prin, in Cincinnati,
which has Iabored to unite its party in
support Of Harrison. The publication, by
his print, of the grounds on which the art
ful Abolition missionary, Blanchard, would
support Harrison, lays open the settled
scheme adopted to draw Federalism uni
versally intp the designs of the Abolition
isis. ifiIreir vores elect the President for
Federalism, they will hold him, and the
party indebted 10 them, bound to carry
Out their views; and they must acquiesce,
or, as blanchard says, ''they will rive
their party into spIinlers !" that is, the
Aholilionsls will abandon them, and they
will fall from power. To avoid this, they
would readily consent, as Blanchard says.
70 give his sect "a free course in Con-
gress;" and he concludes justly. "agita-
tion is thus facilitated, our people eucour-
aged, and our cause advanced"
Now, the Southern people must know
that, even if Harrison is cheating the Abo-
liiionisls as to his real feelings and false
pretensions, still the result expected by
Blanchard from his election by Abolition
votes must be realized. Having the ring
in the nosa Of Harrison and his party, they
will be led by Adams, Stevens, Slade,
Gales. Evans, and the rest, 10 yield "the
free course in Congress" by which the
Abolitioniss expect 10 work out their OBJ

This is matter which admits of no in.
trisue, altering, or compromise.
For the secret tampering with aboIi.
tlonism, now disclosed, General Harrison
should, in our opinion, be treated as an alb
olilionisl, by every friend Of the South and
of the Union.
The danger in which we consider your
dearest Interests placed by this secret ma
