But this Is all mere beating the air, even
Il the Wings, or Democrats, OF both, at the
North, were of one mind as TO the Wilmot
ProyiSo. What could they do even to pro-
cure its adoption I Suppose Mr.. Corwin,
who seems the present Wing representative
Of the Win OF idea to be elected Presi-
dent, what could he do, or they that choose
him dol Could they say to Slavery, thus
far shalt thou go, and here shall thy proud
waves be stayed = There, in the Senate,
will sit that iron majority Of Slavehold-
cf5, who will mock at all their impotent strug-
giles. The example of this Mr.. Berrien shows
that the Wings cannot depend on the South
ern division of their party, in a case where
the interests Of Slavery are at stake. The
Provlso can never become a law, and it will
be distinctly intimated that no man that main
ialns It can expect confirmation for any Office,
at the hands of the Senate. The way of es-
cape which Mr.. Berrien has opened will be
made as broad as the Way That leadeth TO
Destruction, and many there will be that will
walk therein. The history Of the Proviso,
last winter, is an antelope of what is in store
for it.. Passed by a Democratic House, il
was, as soon as the will Of the Senate was
expressed, crushed by the very men who had
just voted for it.
We hope that the better part Of the Wing
party, and of the Democratic party, too, will
do stout battle for the principle Of the Will
mot Proviso, because we believe that if any
thing can show them the only %effectual De-
liverance, it will be the experience they are
about TO have. They will find that if they
can succeed in tying this milestone about the
neck Of a Presidential Candidate, it will car
ry him TO the bottom with a most 'comforta-
alacrity at sinking They will find that
there is not strength enough left 10 the peo-
pie of the Free States, even if they were
united, TO a man, to resist the determined pur-
pose of the Slave Power. They will learn
the might of a compact, intelligent Oligarchy
over homogeneous masses, be they never so
massive. They II discover that TO attempt
to destroy, or to limit, Slavery under the
Constitution, is as vain and absurd as to ipht
in letters. From all this experience, and
more, we trust they will come to see that the
only way TO be free from the despotism Of
the Shareholders, themselves, and 10 pat
in a position 10 give elfeclual aid
TO the slaves, is TO Dissolve THE UNION!
1t may look hard, but 1t is much easier than
TO carry the Wilmot Proviso. For the one
can be done by the majority of the inhabitants
OF the Free States, ora portion of them while
other cannot. though they were all united
rs one imam. When the Antl-Slavery Wings
md Democrats will unite in demanding a
reconstruction of the Government; in pro-
claiming the Dissolution of the present Con
ederation, and the formation of a New I'M
on that shall be such indeed when they
put forth their strength against, instead
# under, the present Constitution; when
hey shall meet, not in p%artizan Conventions,
cut in Conventions TO prepare the People for
/ Revolution, or to carry that Revolution in
10 effect; then they will begin TO exert some
independent political influence, and 10 pro-
luce an effect on public affairs. They can
then help to create a Republic in which the
will Of the People will be law, and not the
of a small aristocracy, their natural
enemies, above their reach and beyond their
control. \ Republic, in which there may be
such a thing as political success, without per-
sonal dishonor; in which a career NAV be
opened to men Of honor and selErespect as
well as TO turn-coats and parasites. In short,
a commonwealth, the very opposite Of every
thing that this spurious republic is, and the
realization Of every thing that ii prelends TO
bee.
