TuE BARN9uRNERs in this State as we


The BARNBuRNERs in this State as we
read their doings, have surrendered at dis
creon TO lheHunkers but the Evening Post
their organ here. says mo" eve have
not surrendered. 1--WE have only gone into
lheI tIunker's bosom 10 sting them to death
with our abolition, we beg pardon, our anti
slavery principles. Hear the Post:
ave repeat again our conviction, that the
result 10 which these two conventions (the
Barnburners st Utica, and the Union Con,
venton at Syracuse,) have arrived, deserves
to be read with pride and satisfaction by the
friends OF human freedom throughout the ma.
ton. II is destined inevitably 10 place the
Democratic party ofthe Stale of Ne,D York
in immediate and unyielding hostility to the
further extension of Slacery; it furnishes a
basis upon which The Democratic party Of
other States cen'unite in the same patriotic
purpose; it will relieve many Of our friends
from the false position which, by political
association, they have been accidentally led
TO occupy, in opposition to course Of pol.
icy which they approved Of in their hearts,
They will no longer have occasion TO search
for arguments TO defend principles they dc
not entertain, and course OF political actor
at war with all their political and persona
sympathes." ...t

; "We intend this ,ointer 10 haue Lcgis
; lature that dares sag something about slauer!
: "a Legislature owing allegiance TO no slave
S holding President, or slaveholding cabinet
and sufficiently firm to take its stand in be
, half OF human freedom, regardless Of the de
nuncations from Washington, by which tn
6 last Legislature was awed into silence"
The "Wilmot Proviso" thus, it seems
adopted then by the democratic party" i
, New York, and with that, according to III
resolutions at Utica, abolition Of slavery i
the district OF Columbia!
What says the Albany Argus TO ths?-
What says the Richmond Enquirer? Whs
says the Mobile Herald? What says tn
I Washington Union? What says Hunkerisr
I generally?
The Evening Post does not hesitate to So
: that it is going to take the Wilmot Provisc
!. and Slavery in the District Of Columbia, int
f the State Legislature, that is, elect Barnbu
ners wherever it can, and SO secure U.
Senator OF its own kilh and kin, in place
Dickinson and the like! What say all tn
organs here and elsewhere TO all this?
The Post adds: ....
III anything could add TO the glory whic
the Democracy Of New York acquired, il
being the first 10 resist the tests imposed
the slaveholding interests OF the south, a, III
Baltimore Conventional anything coul
farther dignity their disnterested and exem
plary resistance to the extension OF huma
/ slavery since that event--it will be foun
in their corresponding promptilude I
unite with their opponents the moment al
resistance to the principles and the policy 70
which they have been contending, is la
aside" -'. -....
Thus cries the Post, SHE Hunkers hav
surrendered 10 US, - while it owns above,
only mixes in with them 10 sting them t
death! ....
But the people, the Wing people, will b
very likely 10 ask, ''what sort OF princip
is that which supports half Of Cass Stat
ticket, on the Baltimore platform. when tina
half repudates the Buffalo platform, ever
plank"
The ticket is, the Barnburners see, anc
know that California is coming into the
Union, with "a Wilmot Pfoviso" OF its owr
, adoption, and they were very glad TO creeJ
into any hole that the Hunkers left them Il
