Tar TAMMArr HALL DEMOCRATS in
New York have repudiated any connec-
lion with the Free Soil party. One Of
their resolutions says: -
Rsolred, That we look upon every at
tempt to engraft the question Of slavery or
anti-slavery on the doctrines Of the Demo-
cratic party, as eminently dangerous 10
the existance, both Of the party and the
Union; that, while we regard slavery as
an evil, and should regret IFS extension,
Jet the Democratic party ought not to pre-
scribe faith for its members on the sub
jecs; while under our own government,
some Of the States Of the Union are en-
cunbersd with slave population, and 9TH
en- are free from it, the united Democracy
Gthe nstion cannot have common faith
% such question. The Democratic
party 10 neither pro-slavery nor anti
slavery party; it leaves its members,
North and South, East and West, to en-
tertain their own convictions, on this ir-
relevant question.
Resolved, That we will not become par
ties 10 any treaty or negotiation for what
nealicd union with a body Of pretended
Deascrats, Of a spurious organization and
that i can only admit Of political fellow
dip with them when they, as individuals,
support the principal measures and organ
lssion Of the party.

WHY TENNESSEE WENT LOCO
FOCO

| The Nashville Union of the 9th inst the
leading Loco-Foco paper in Tennessee, (edit-
ed by +. G. Eastman, Vermonter, and we
believe brother of the leading Free Demo
cracy' editor in that State,) has a column of
exultatlon over the recent victory in Tennes-
| see, from which we extract the following ex-
PLANTATION of its causes:
More than all other causes in Tennessee,
Gen. Taylor who had been supported as s. a
true friend of the south, because he lives in
the south and owns slaves" called into his
council as Cabinet advisers two furious and
tanatlcal Abolitionists, and two others, whose
views conceded with the more moderate
Free Sellers. He had thrown away the We
to Power by pledge to which it was known
that the Northern Wings would hold or dis
grace him. His leading friends South knew
this; and they were compelled either to aban-
don him, and with him, all hope of office, OF
| to adopt the s. submission to the IPiknsot Pro-
Uiso' doctrine which they knew he would car
ry out in practice. Under the lead of John
Bell, who wants to conciliate Northern Free
Soil support, they adopted the latter alterna-
tive; and the Wings of Tennessee woke up
In amazement, on the opening of the canvass,
TO hear Neil ). Brown stake his election up
on the issue rendered to the people by the
sixth resolution of the Democratic convention
which proclaimed RESISTANCE TO THE WMMor
PROyISO AND ALL KINDRED MEASURES Ar ALL
HAZARD AND TO THE LAST EXTREMITY. Neil
). Brown denounced that resolution, as lead
ing to disunion, all over the state, and pro-
claimed an acre of Bunker Hill worth all the
valley of the Rio Grande, although studded
with diamonds and filled with slaves. Upon
this issue the people have left him almost a.
lone In his glory. We call attention to results
Thousands of true friends to the south have
voted for Neil S. Brown through the strength
of old party attachments, and yet firmly re-
solved to RESIST when the proper time for re-
sistance arrives; but thousands of others have
dropped him in disgust. John Bell, the mas
ter and Neil s. Brown the servant, have recei-
we'd the most signal rebuke ever inflicted upon
erring master and man, and Taylorism, as
practlsed, has fallen to rise no more forever,
in the very seat and centre of its former power"
Do you see how one of 'em carried TENNEs-
SEE against the Administration; now let us
see if 'tother one can carry Vermont also a.
gainst 1t by going large on the other tack
They are a nice pair of beauties, and one of
them means just the 'tother, though
he has to take another course to effect it.
