be effected that does not involve the giving up any
thing calculated to promote the great end they have in
view. They hold to no kind Of excusiveness that
would keep them from entering into any righteous
combination to overthrow the monster slavery. Who
are those who ask the Liberty party TO unite with
lhem? Are they the friends Of this party? so their
words and actions have belied them. I hey are the
men who have publicly heaped all manner of abuse
on the Liberty party And now they come fawning
around u.s. saying we are your friends come let ms
unite and overthrow slavery with one effort" But we
dare not trust them, especially when they say to us
come give up your NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. ultra track
exclusive coursc7 What is this but asking US to give
up our principles We once adopted the course of
questioning men on their principles and having receY-
ed satisfactory answers, gave fem suffrage But
what was the result? Why, men who made the fair

ry instance, violated their ortsovery principles and
promises, before they would depart from the course
their party pursued. But one way was left for u.s.
This adopted, and until we are convinced that
some other way is better, we intend to pursue it, But
it seems to me folly to talk about such union There
is no intermediate step between the Liberty party and
either of the other two parties. We must either give
up our principles or they must their to form union
We cannot give up our principles; and the true an

OUR NEXT PRESIDENT.
shall not attempt to speculate about who the next
man shall be to fill the chief office of our nation but
do not hesitate to give my opinion that he will be
placed in Office by the Democratic party. It appears
to me that there be no doubt of this to one who
takes impartial view of the position of all the par
ties at the present time No union of parties can be
effected at least before the next Presidential election
1t is useless TO attempt such thing. So many have
already been drawn off from the Wing party that it
probably could not bring into the field so large force
the Democratic party 1t defeated at the last
Presidential election in a fair open field fight, with
their strongest man for its leader. 1t is now compare
lively weaker than it was then. Should they run the
same candidate again, there many who would not
vote for him Great numbers of the party have plejg-
ed themselves not to vote for auo Their Shareholder It
} is true that large number would perure themselves
and vote with the party should they nominate slave
holder, yet quite respectable portion ain persuaded,
would not do it. Should the party put up northern
man, the southern portion would 60 to the Demo-
cratic party. So that which way soever the party
d turns, it must meet with defeat The Democratic
party will still bow down and worship Baal or any 9th
er god or demon to keep the ascenGency. They will
either nominate Southern man or a Northern man
" with Southern principles, one whom the South can
rust and as party will vote for him without L,ntng
their conscences We cannot look for anything bet
u ter from such a source The Liberty party will have
very large accession to its numbers yet we cannot
suppose that it will be able to elect its candidate at
the next ele,tion
THE END OF THE WING PARTY.
The Wing party as such, will never elect another
candidate to fill the Office of President have already
shown why must be defeated at the next olection-
Large numbers will then 60 over to the Liberty Party
