The LOcocos-Northem and Southern.
In jane last de ssmi-ofeial correspondent
Of ne Baltimore 500 wrote from Washington,
asiolipvs;
gbe Cas- DemoeTas &c lhs Free States de-
clare boldly here and elsewhere that if Gene
raj Taylor be elected by the aid Of the south,
they viii organize a party on the basis Of ihe
wilmoi Pgoviso and sweep The whole OF the
free States"
According to the report Of the same writer
the %revengeful organization abovs alluded 10,
is now being formed. In a letter written from
Washington a few days ago, he has the follow
ing in relation to the California bills
The great obstacle to the bill is, that the peo-
pla Of the non-slayehoIding States are disPos-
Cd to pass The Wilmot %proViso.
They wish territorial government, and an
exclusion Of slavery, and this they will have
Since The late election, the feeling has become
the more predominant. Many democrats, who
from pol ,cy, used to oppose the prOviso, now.
say to tn, South, that since they lost their
candidate BY the use Of the slavery question
in the South, they will hereafter avail them
selves OF the entire benef Of the question in
The Nnrth, This is not very patriotic, but 1t
is very natural Mr.. Hannegan has lost his
election 10 the Senate rpon this question,
and n free.soiler--a slavery rosrrictionist--h0s
beaten him. Not a man who voted for either
Of the compromises proposed in the Senate
last session, will probably be reelected from
any non-slasehoIding State"
We wish il understood, first, that the above
was written BY a l%oc0focO leader--one who is
well acquainted with nllthe secret purposes Of
the cliques Of Washington ofice.hoides who
constitute the soul Of LUcofocoism. And then
it may be noted that heconirms Tie statement
made BY himyselfin June last, not however, with
out making an important admission that the
Northern Locofocos who have heretofore OPP
posed the PrOviso were a%ctuuted by mere mo-
lives Of " policy" We have charged this upon
them a thousand times, buttheir %virtuous South
ern allies repclled this charge with great
deal of seeming indignation. Throughout
The whole Of the past canvass, III meeting The at
tacks upon Willard Fillmore, we maintained
that any Northern man who professed to go
fully with the South on the subject Of slavery,
was a time-sevcT and a h~yocrile, and would,
upon occasion bctray the confidence reposed
in him. as did Martin Van Buren,, and as Lewis
Cnss would have done. We now have an ad-
mission Of the truth of our assertions from a
high democratic source-and we, Consequent
ly, " stick a pin there"
In regard to the difficulties between the two
wings Of Locofocoism-dificuItie conse-
quent upon the defeat Of their " pohcy' can
dldaie in the late election--we have only to
say that the deep mut.erings and half sup
pressed curses Of the Northern press against
southern democrats Indicate a family breach
not to. be avoided and perhaps never to.be heal
ed. AT all events, If there be the least anti.
slavery capital in existence at the time Of the
next general election, there can be no doubt
that the northern democrats will try to appro-
pirate it to.the nomination Of an ultra northern
man. They are determined to eschew spoIi-
cy'' hereafter, and to come out fiat footed a.
gOinst any thing like a continuation OfHthat
southern diclatiop under which they have la-
bored for many years -. Whiig,
