TOT Tue FREEMAN.
Mr.. EDIToR:-A plain man, unacquainted with
political legerdemain, would come to the conclu-
sion from reading the wing papers, that there was
concentrated in the character of Henry Clay, all
the exceencies, the high moral virtues, and heav-
emily qualities, which can be connected with human
nature.-But let him turn away from these false
representations and eulogies, these rhapsodies of
heated heads, these paltry ebutions of unprinci-
pied partizans, and read the language of Clay de-
liberatey uttered in Congress -'I know there is
visionary dogma which holds that negro slaves
cannot be the subjects of property; that is property
which the law declares to be propery;" how chang
ed would be the character of the man. Would he
not ask, can the man who thus discards the Di.
vine law and substitutes human enactment, be a
fit ruler ola Christian people; Can he who thus
tramples on the principles of the Declaration, and
sets up the civil code as the standard of right and
wrong, be the man whose praises are so often and
so loudly sung? Shall erring, Auctuatng human
opinion or human law determine what is right? In
one country we see theft allowed, if perPetrated
with cunning and skill in another, piracy, if con-
Quoted with intrepidity; in short, the most inhu-
man practices, the greatest denominations and out
RACES have been author ised by law. The blacklist
crimes have been enjoined by legislators and de-
Tended by philosophers, even in nations we have
denominated civilized and enlightened. What
shall we think ofthis standard when we recoect
the institutions of Lycurgus, and the regulations
hof Plato, and when we find suicide applauded by
the Stoics, and the murderous combats of Gadia-
tors defended by Cicero, and exhibited by Trojan.
Who cannot see in that sentiment of Mr.. CIay's,
disregard of those great commands on which
chang all the law and the prophets, pa reckessneSs
of the principles of love to God and love to our
neghbor. Can party politics so blind the eyes of
men as to pass over unnOtlced, such an odum on
religion, such dangerous and fatal sentiment!
This sentiment goes to confound in one, things and
beings, which the Almighty has separated by inf
mite EXTREMIST is setting at naught, and tramp
| ling on the most sacred and eternal DISTINCTIONS
impiousy derding the intrinsic value of ratona
and immortal being. This man has deep rcgarC
for all lao which promotes his pecuniary interests
and gives license to to his depravity. He mani
tests a most sacred regard for the laW of fashion
or honor, and yielding to its requirements he at
tempts to take the life of his fellow man in bar
barous duel.
Such is the man who is held upin the Louisville
Journal as paragon of excellence, and that full
some euIogy is copied into the wing papers o
Vermont and banded abou. with great exutaton

Mr.. PoLAND:-
MY Dear Sir:-As much has been said and
written, of late, respecting certain party having
but one idea,' | desire to submit, through the
medium of your paper, few thoughts for the con-
sideration of the public. do this the more readi
ly inasmuch as have had my attention called to
the fact that numerous political speakers, as well
as writer's, connected with the public press in vari-
GUS quarters ofour country, have, as it appears to
me, vainly attempted to make it the subject of
taunt, of ridicue, and misrepresentation. Parties
arrogating to themselves the names of ''Whig"
with others to determine) have been especially
prone to apply the phrase to those who could not
conscientously agree with them in every particu-
lar. 1t was first promulgated by the great leader
of one of these parties, Henry Clay, in the Senate
in 1889, when he said ofthe abotonists &c A SIN
gle idea has taken possession of their minds
This has served as standing text for that, and
for aught | know. other parties to the present
time, But what is quite singular, these parties,
at the north, pretend, at the same time, to favor
this very " idea," and profess, occasionally, to
belong to that " despised Glass; which Mr.. Clay
has endeavored to place &C without the general
sympathyr'
1t is well and profitable, occasionally, amid the
strife and discord of party warfare, to pause and
reflect on the first great principle which conSti-
tutes and is the very essence of government IN
which the people, not their servants, or privi-
legged number or class, bear rule. shall not I'M
dertake to maintain the proposition that such a
government exists on the face of the globe; but il
it dOes-if such a government can be pointed out
then pledge myself to show you a government
in which the rights of one, Whatever may be hi'
condition, are not considered superior to those o
another, whether those rights be natural, civil Of
religious Any government which falls short o
this, is mott democratic government; and any par
ty that maintains principles or measures, or sup
ports any man who falls short of this, is not
Democratic party. We lay this down, then, as
fundamental principle, natural. inherent and NOR
al, as well as political, lying at the foundation o

Another WhiG Mob,

Overseerism seems to be spreading at the North,
although the followers have hardly yet got cour-
age to follow their leader by using cold lead to
break the will of those who refuse to submit to
their dctaton In addition to the case of protracted
violence at Troy, which is described by our cores
pondent, we find in the Buffalo Gaz. that the same
spirit has broken out in Eric county. Mr.. J. Kill
bourn, gentleman of character, well known in
Worcester county, describes the transaction in
which our esteemed friend Charles H. Stewart,
Esq, of Detroit, the distinguished repeater, was
stopped from delivering lecture on the princi-
piles of Liberty, at Aurora, Erie county, N. Y.
on July SCth:-
Mr.. Stewart, who is native of ireland, twelve
years resident in this country, formerly an asso-
cae and intimate friend of O'Conne, and in all
respects gentleman and Christian, opened the
meeting with prayer, and commenced his remarks
by saying that he should not attempt to prove the
superior claims of the Liberty party over that of
the Democratic party, for the simple reason that
they laid no claims to the votes of aboitionists on
anti-savery grounds; hut that as the Wing party
profess to be the anti slavery party land the only
which could do any thing efiectually, to advance
the of abolition, especially referred to the
Wing party were equally unworthy of the suffra-
ges of Liberty men.
At the moment the wing party was announced
as being protessedly anti-slavery, Il disturbance
was commenced by Lafayette Carver, ESQ, a law
yer, and n leading wing of Aurora, who pronounced
the assertion to be false, continued to abuse Mr..
S. in language of the most insulting character, till
he forced him to suspend his remarks. Carver,
in spite of all the efforts to call him to order
though justice of the peace-continued to dis
turb the peace, by taunting Mr.. S. with being an
Trishman, a Iocofoco,' aud of being guilty of the
objectionable sin of presuming to instruct Ameri-
in the political principles of their country.
When requested in the most respectful mannernot
thus to disturb the meeting, but wait till Mr.. S.
got through, when he would have an opportunity
to answer him to his hearts content, he declared
that he would not .'si still and hear his party utti-
fed, parceled out Vcith set Of damned niggers."
1t will be borne in mind that the head and front
of Mr. Stewards offending, consisted in represent
ing the wings to be prOfsssedEy favorable 10 aboH-
tiOn 1t is hoped that in future Liberty men
will not expose themselves to insult by calling
wings aboltionsts. }. KiLBOURN.
