Washing ton--Je tfersOn, and the Wings.
A discussion has been commenced, re.
specting the identity Of views of the pres.
ent Wing Party, and those Of Washing
ton and Jefferson in their day. The dis.
cussion of such matters solely, is of no
more importance, or no more relative to
the questions, whether slavery should be
done away, and the means to be used in
removing it, than has the identity of in.
FAINT sprinkling with the old fashiond cir.
cumcislon. 1t matters nothing, so far as
our duties are concerned, whether Wash.
ington or Jefferson held slaves, or whelh.
er they did not-whether they spoke
against it, or did not. If slavery is
wrong. it is our duty to do what we can,
consistently with other duties, for its re,

move slavery, it should be placed to their

out the civilized world is no longer probematica J;
seems 10 be almost universally conceded that This
stupendous fraud upon portion of the human race
is fast drawing to close, and the great question
with us is truly, what measures are best suited to
accomplish this desirable end in the United States.
"Political action is necessary to pro-
duce moral reformation in nation and that action
with us can only be effectually exercised through
the ballot box. Aud surely the ballot box can new
err be used for more noble purpose than to restore
and secure TO every man his inalenabe rights.
