True democracy is the antagonism of slavery
sham democracy is anything for the sake of votes,
without heart, without principle, without con-
scence,-a tyrant and a sycophant by turns, I'M
scrupulous in its use of means, and seeking merely
its own advancement, without any reference to the
real interests Of the country. AS the sham often
nuts on the airs of the true, and uses its set phra-
SEES, and prates great deal about "the dear peo-
ple :" it is sometimes necessary to caution the I'M
suspicious that they he not deceived, and by the
impudent professions of the false, mistake it for
the true democracy. A little honest scrutiny is ali
that is needed to detect the cheat. When you hear
n man denouncing the Banks, and defending sla-
very, advocating universal suffrage, and the dis
reimbursement of our cOored citizens, euloglzng
the sub-treasury, and sneerng at men on account
If their complexion, mark him for Il counterfeit
democrat, and act accordingly No party thatju
tifes slavery or pleads for its continuance, or leg
isatcs for its support, or elevates its champions to
Office can Justly claim to be acknowledged all
this, ana more, is done by the party in our country
which arrogaes to itself this title. But again we
say, be not deceived by names. The so-caed
democratic party is welded to a hateful oigarchy
and is democratic only in name. 1t oheys the be-
hest of slavery, and wages cruel war against the
rights of man 1t is the enemy ofhuman progress.
1t tramplos upon the weak in its allegiance TO I'M
holy power, and every friend OF God ana humanity
should therefore repudlate IT. 49,
Let Us not be misunderstood. We do not say
tbat there are no true democratic principles, nor
democrats in this party. There are undoubtedly
many. But the party, as such, is corrupt and pro-
slavery. Itsleaders have sold it to the shareholders
for southern patronage-and when any ofits prom
inent members, like Leggett or Morris, have dared
to stand up like ffeemen and rebuke the insoence
of the slaveholding oligarchy, they have been de-
nounced as fathess to the party. We speak of no
torious facts. Look at the conduct of the demo

NUMBER 16.

cratic members of Congress from the free States!
HOW baseiy servle has it been, with some fewno-
bic exceptions. How unscrupulouslv have thew
surrendered the rights Of the North in compliance
with Southern dlctation. They have gone, almost
in Il body, against the sacred right of petiton-and
when the infamous Atherton distanced all COM
pettors in the race Of servity, he was rewarded
by democratic Legislature with seat in the Uni
ted States Senate. We might relate hundred
Kindred facts in proof of our proposition that the
democratic party, as SUCH is mere tool in the
hands of the Slave Power and is utterly unworthy
the confidence of freemen. Let no abolitonist be
deceived into its support by the name it BEARS
The slave has nothing to hope for at its hands,
1t Is the antagonist oil democratic liberty and there
lore should every true democrat abandon it, as a
testimony for democracy.
And as regards Van Buren, and Clay, the only diff
ference between them in respect to slavery, is.
that one IS Southern man with Southern princi-
pies, and the other 'Northern man with South
ern principles" Both are prepared to do the bid
ding of the Slave Power-Clay, because he is a
part of that Power; Van Buren, because this is the
price which he must pay for Southern patronage.
Neither is entitled to the suf'rages of men who,
loving freedom for themselves, demand it for ali
men, IN the name Of God and humanity. There
are many democrats who call themselves aboli-
tIonists-and we entreat them, by their regard for
consistency, by the love which they bear the slave
by their desire to preserve unmpaired their moral
influence, by their hope that our country will be
saved from the vengeance that stnote guilty Egypt,
and by their confidence in God, to break off from
party that has proved itself so false to human
rights-and, taking Liberty for their watchword,
unite with those who, in accordance with our Dec
laraton of Independence, and the spirit of our
Constitution, would rescue the Government from
the usurpations of the Slave Power, and make it
the protector, instead of the destroyer, of Human
Rights.-Ch. Freeman.

THE MOONLIGHT REVEL.
BY THE LEYDoN BARD.

Oh, come to the revel! !-5tis summers call,
And great is the feast in her banquet hall;
Most luscious and sweet are the daintes rare,
Which her taste has set in profusion there
Bright flowers shall sparkle in robes of dew,
And scent the still air with their odour too;
Rich fruit from the boughs of the golden pear
The strawberry red from its vne-webb'd lair;
Whilst thefounain's foam shall meier cease to chimt
Its murmuring song, at the gleeful time.
Oh, come to the revel!--'tis balmy June,
Whilst fairis the face of the silver moon;
Resplendant the stars in the arch Of blue,
And calm has the eve by the twilight grew.
Eyes brilliantly black will be there to smile;
Sweet voices to charm the most sad, the while;
And light fairy figures, with graceful pride,
To the music soft, in the dance shall glide;
And merry delight, as the favored queen,
Shall alone preside DER the joyful scene.
Oh, come to the revel! l!-'tis silent eve,
And sweet is the welcome you shall receive,
Come walk in the vale, and the starit grove,
See the light of life, hear the notes of love;
Whilst every heart shall aloud rejoice,
When melody streams from fair natures voice,
O'er the sward or brookthrough the bending trees
Shall trembe the mountains inspiring breeze,
With gifts for the sad and charms for the gay
Who then from the revel shall bide away!
