Where faith and hops shall gladly wing

The present, which alone Is ours,

terests and opinions, arrayed either side, may re-

The world has already seen that there is not at least

vent cordial union between the parties in the de-
legation of power There is not, can you, any
NORTON Of the people which would more sincerely re-
ioce, than would the Democracy of The North, to find
in this indication and in the Developments which may
follow the desired proof, that the apprehensons they
have entertained in regard to this delicate question nave

satisfaction they derive from that source oe amihisneo
iffoowed BY confirmation Of the impression ALREADY
SO extensively made the minds OF those no nave no
other guide TO their judgments than outward apPearah
ces that abolition itself Isl in this country, after all Du
a political expedient, Destined like the many devices
for the more eectual organization and combination Oh
political factions which have preceded it, to De IN turn
eclipsed and superseded by some scheme invented
for similar purposes.
