Every day furnishes proofs that the wings Of the
North the principal fomeners Of the slavery ag
tation in that section Of the Union. II win be remem-
bered that we, weeks ago. furnished ample proof
showing that Senator Seward was the author Of the
Geddes resolutions which offered in the Legislature
Of New York upon the subject Of slavery. We have
now m analysis Of the votes given on the passage
Of similar series Of resolutions through the assem-
bly, Of that State, which shows that nearly all the
wing members voted for them, while less than one
third Of the democrats present gave their votes for
them. The test question was on agreeing with the
Committee Of the Whole in their report. Upon that
question. the vote was as follows: yeas &c. nays 81
absent 80. Of the yeas. AZ wings, and % were
democrats OF the nays, 10 democrats, and were
wings Thus the great majority Of those members voting
for the resolutions wings, while those who voted
against them were nearly all democrats This fact shows
what sort Of allies the wings Of the South have in the
North. They are nearly unanimous against the wings
Of the South the vital question touching their inter-
ess; and yet the alliance between the northern and
southern wings still rema ms unbroken The resolutions
referred to presented to the Senate by Mr. Seward
