Whig AnttSlayery.

Mr.. EDIToR 1T is claimed that the wing party is
an anti slavery party and that there is no need Of
Liberty party. When the question Of slavery was
strongly identified with annexation and Mr.. Clay was
out square against it. and the wings were ralying for
him upon that ground, many thought-and was among
them-that the work of anti slavery was being pretty
well done by the wing party. After Mr.. Clay chang
ed his ground hesated; but being committed, went
on. now see that there never any strong ground
of reliance upon Nj. Clay or the Wing party to pre-
vent annexation We should, under him, have been
drawn into it, in some way or other The way in
which he drawn from his original ground of oppo-
son to it, showed that he was not, at least much op-
posed to annexation We might, under him., have a
voded war, but we should have had Texas with its
perpetual slavery. Mr.. Clay is not at heart, opposed
to slavery, as his speech in 1889 fully showed. And
yet the leading wings even at the north and east are
much in favor of him for the presidency they ever
were; and nothing will prevent his nomination again
but fear of the Liberty party.
The leading wings in Vermont very little about
slavery They scold about it and call it hard names;
but they would, after ALL jump at the chance of elect
ing Mr.. Clay, or any other wing stakeholder They
will scarcely tolerate any who takes right hold of
slavery though he was in earnest This is one rea-
son why certain of them who control the party have
been trying for time, to get rid of the present
governor in which they have at last, succeeded. He
has been too much in earnest in opposing slavery to
suit hem ard they have thrown him overheard, after
using him to carry the party through trying crisses
understand he going to leave the State, and don't
blame him PheLpsiSm is in the ascendant, with milk
and water anti slavery The party is governedby men
who care nothing for slavery, and as little for high
toned morality Swearing and getting drunk are not
hafas bad as honest, thorough-going abolitionisn.
To follow the lead of such men witha view to attain
anti slavery objects is running after igns fatuus
They are mere partzans driving at party success,
without much scruple about the ways and means. And
the body of the party following in their train with
out knowing whittier they are led.

The following is an extract of letter from Dr. j. H.
SNoDaRAss, editor Of the Baltimore Saturday ptStor,
TO the late Liberty Convention held at Chicago H.
What Northern man can resist this faithful rebuke, COM
ing as it does from one in the very midst OF the great
est slave market IN the United States and beneath the
shadow of the dark prison walls where ToTey was
murdered by inches for acting out the generous lmpu
ses of his nature? It's generally known that Dr. 3
has long been under the ban of the save-mongers tor
his faithful testimony against their Internal business

made to suppress his excellent paper as an ncendary
publication.

The same may be said of Pennsylvania and Maryland
Oh 1t is painful to witness the apooglsm OF the free

with the seility of nonslavehoders, so mixed up are
our interests, and so terrifying are sayey-protectng

should be so much of this feeling where no immediate
interest beckons and no penentay rowns, IS no less
surprising than lamentabe. refer not now, to the

The Tariff~nA Compromise,

The tariff question is yet in suspense, the final vote
upon McKay's new bill not having yet been taken in
the Senate Conflicting opinions are ven relative to
the prospect of its passage The probability ls' we
should think that it would pass-for when have the
South undertaken work without finding the means Of
accomplishing it Mr. Webster, it is said, was to have
made great speech on the subject on Friday last, ant
bring forward proposition for Compromise, similar
to the one in Notification times by which duties would
be gradually brought down to the revenue Standard
How dignifed for the North, after being brought en-
rely into the power and at the mercy OF the South e
humbly beg for the boon of dying by inches, rathe
than at a blow-nnd how magnanmous it would be il
the South to grant the prayer, all udeseved as it is
And why may not Mr.. Webster immortalze his nam'
as the great Compromises" Mr.. Clay has and pre-
pare the way for the Presidency?

1t is amusing to contrast the tone of the South
ern Press, and the Southern Representatives in
Congress, ON the subject Of the tariff, and the
Northern Press and the Northern Representatives
on the subject of Orcgon-we mean that portion
that held to 81 40.
There is boIdness, decision, and energy in the
former They denounce and threaten as if they
were the lords of the universe. Said Mr., Sea-
born Jones of Georgia, when speaking on the
tariff in the House of Representatives., and twit-
ted with the Punic faith of the South, ooh eX-
cuse us-excuse the slayeholders-w their
interest compels them to break their promises to
the North but gentlemen of the North, you
must not violate promises made to shareholders"

innocent apd guiltIess as the infant. " Down
with the treachery of those free State Represen-
tatives in Congress, who dare oppose the great
measure of the South and the country, and let
their names be held up to public scorn."
And it is thus ever that the South acts when
she has point to carry. She braves every op-
position and breaks it down, and then laughs al
and spurns from her the very men she frighten
ed into her support. Who Of these time-servers
get third or fourth rate office! What one a

these North men made of? Have they been ca.
joled and cuhed about so much by and for the
South, until they have lost their selfrespesct as
well as their courage? They stand in contrast
certainly to Southern members as the intelligent
slave does to his master. They may impore
demonstrate, even threaten; but dare not act out
their thoughts and purposes. They cover at
the very moment they should stand up, and let
Southern lords know they had place to fill,
and that they meant to fill it.

"The existence of slavery depends alone upon po-
tcal power: take that away and the whole fabric falls
1t has no foundation in morals religion, in the
common sympathies of the people"
The above paragraph is from the last Bellows Falls
Gazette, and rd no little difficulty in reconciling
the sentiments 1t contains with the unmeasured cen
sures which, in the same article, are heaped upon the
Liberty Party for refusing to aid in placing the govern
ment in the hands of that most successful champion Of
slavery, Henry Clay, who even now boasts of having
effected the Missouri Compromise, by which infinitely
more gained for slavery than can be by the
annexation of Texas. And yet the Gazette " calls
upon the Third Party to up to the work of cur
failing the slave powell" What other party than the
Liberty Party we ask has ever for moment underta
ken to take away political power" from Shareholders
and their abettors?

Slavery in MARYLAND,

Baltimore correspondent OF the Worcester
County Gazette under the date of June 3Oh.
writes as follows:
An interesting case was tried before the
County Court, held in this city, on Saturday
last The facts, as developed in the trial, we're
simply these A female slave, owned and ln-
ing in one of the southern counties of MARYLAND
entered INTO an arrangement with her mistress,
by which she was to pay her $3.50 for her free
dom. Permission was given her to 90 to Wash
ington and labor, as a free woman, that she mirht
be enabled to pay the stipulated sum She got
employment at Gadsby's and obtained and trans
United to her former mistress $3.50, leaving S2I
due, Now mark the sequel Having labored
hard thus long, and got thus near the north star
she Is seized and brought to Baltimore and sold
TO that eXecrabIe flesh and blood monger, Hope
ii, Slater, for $3.50 Now the friends Of the
girl have brought an action to recover her free
dom. Slater defending his property.-The DO
stlons taken by the friends of the girl are first
that she was free-that her mistress had virtual.
ly given her lreedom--that she had been ner.
united to act for herself as though free. Sec.
ondly, that slave, once having been sold, OF
hired out of the State, by the free will of the
master, cannot be brought back into the State a
slave such is the law of Maryland Reyerdy
Johnson, Esq, and Others advocated the cause
OF the girl ably. Yet there is Iitlo or no doubt
but that the tyrants claims will be sustained
and this victim of refined cruelty will be sold
