Now here is another frank admission from Of the
prominent lights Of whigery that the quarrel which I'M
fortunately divided the New York democracy aid not orr
girafe tn auery, but from local causes, affecting the
politics OF that State and this every intelligent man
knows to be the fact After the dispute had arisen, the
a u \
slavery question lugged in by one side as make
weight against the other. 1t made the ostensble
cause OF dssension, while the real
rious and fundamental Yet in view OF these pregnant
and conclusive admissions of two of the leading wing
presses in New York, the INSCRIPTIONS and unprnciped
wing press seeks produce impression at the South
that the reunion OF these two sections, hostile and
belligeren is coalition of the democracy with abo
litionism 1t is most unfounded and foul calumny
upon the democratic party, as have proved by the
strongest and most conclusive wing testimony.
But how was the union efected' Before that euent
took place, the extension of slavery the territories
as made political test by Of the sections Of the Ne
York democracy The other section denied and repudi-
ated il test. Now, what was the result of the nego-
tation 1t amicaby agreed that while every ndi-
vdual should be permitted to entertain such sentiments
he pleased upon the subject of slavery, the question
should not be made party test and should constitute
part of the party creed platform. And yet in the very
face OF this fact the reckless wing press Of the South
charge the democratic party with entering into alliance
with northern aboitonism. II in truth an amicabe
and honorable settlement by the two lately estranged
sections Of the New York democracy, in which both
parties agreed TO drop all cause of dissenson, open
well latent and again rally together their old plat
form Of principles against their ancient and enc
my II is this thorough union, upon fair and honorable
principles that has alarmed the wings, and called
forth from the press Of that party such torrents OF mis-
representation falsehood and viiupeaon, as it has of
late exhibited, and is now exhibiting.
But with what of grace or propnety does the whg
press and particularly the and traitor wing press
Of the South presume TO charge upon the demAsafs-ur
uu1sputed and Indisputable iacs viii give the reply
list The wing party Of the free States, including its
leaders, its presses and its voters are solers and
abolItionists, almost to man.
In the legislature of every free State in the Union
where the wings have had a1najory and in nearly every
popular wing convention in the free States resolutions
hostile to slavery and in favor of the Wilmot Proyiso
have been passed This fact susceptible Of the clearest
proof
g. From the earliest periods Of party history in this
Couuuy oiu icucfdl party, WnOse descendants now
compose the body and soul of the modern wing party
camored against slavery and the southern States as the
wings of the North now do.

slave representation which movement has been followed
up by the wing Legislature Of Massachusetts, from that
day until II received its quieus by the report OF select
committee OF the House OF Representatives at the head
Of which was John Quincy Adams, who presented the
resolutions OF the State OF Massachusetts and who made
report in favor Of aboishing the clause in question
The united wing party Of the free States constantly
voted against the welknown 2Ist rule adopted by the
House Of Representatives to prevent agitation and excite

from the South. which repealed the 2ist rule
T. The united wing party OF the North voted agains,

s. Coming down to the late presidential election, the
wing party put forward candidate for the presidency
