We canuo, think that Southern Wing leaders
,,esnme so much on the creduliy OF the masses
of their party, as 10 believe that they VIII sustain
The aboli,ion,s, Fillmore, but that their heated

Of No-pariyism. What Wing leader has ever

Wbies from the Northern States while every De-

A Southern leader Of Whisism would have SAID
10 his neighbors and friends thai such conduct
threatened he stability Of our glorious Union, and
that all such men should be denounced in The
most uumeasured terms. But now, when they
have become dislempered with no-par'ytsm, they
seem 10 act as though they thought II rare niT'ne
10 conceal from their friends the startling lacI,
that their leading Wing friends in the Senate OF
he United States, from the Tree States, voted in
favor of Hae's proposition TO abolish slavery 10
the Dissric, OF Columbia.
Should the No. parlyism faction, cnce the "sreat
Wing party" succeed in the coming Pfesidenlial
election, we believe that, al The South, FIJI
p,orene will become Us justly odous asa Hartford
Conveniionist was, after the last war with Eng,
land When The South in just cause is srick
en- down by the "ad and comfort" given 10 her
enemies by her own sons, then indeed may she
exclaim that greater wrong has been done her
Than was contemplated against our glorious
Union by the Hartford Conyenlionisls.
The success OF tho faction arrayed against the
Democracy is possible, though we do not think u
the least probable; bu, as eternal vigilance is
The price OF liberty" we would urge every Demo-
Graf, as well as every other Union-loving citizen
10 be active in the good old cause, and thus r'-
umphantly elect our glorious na'Ionai nnion.lov-
ing standard bearers, whose 'ptivatc virtues" nd
noublic careers" SO fully enttle hem 10 our hea r

TO present candidates for The support OF the Dem
ocracy for the President and Vice President, in
our Judgment amongst all the good and great
statesmen Of whom our parry can So Justly boasl
VIZ could no, name candidates more deserving in

Cass and Buller Boh ut them are "brave old
volunteers" and as such have rendered grateful
service in our country's cause, and both OF them
have also, as STATESMEN, clothed themselves with
honor in promoting The greatness Of our beloved
country.
