The New York Evening Post. abolitonist and free
soler denounces the Adjustment in the biterest
terms Its object is agitation. II threatens asss the

tent defiance, like Satan in hell II declares that these
measures lido not themselves purpor to settle the

The country will see, from these revelations, the des-
perale spr, by which the free sellers. and Van Burens,
and Stewards are acua,ed. Their madness cannot pre-.
vail They would keep the country constantly excited,
and reduced the very brink OF disuuon and ruin about

to meorate the condition Of the slaves they should let
them alone. Suppose slavery the evil which they
depict, is clear that precpitae and sudden emancipa
lion is still greater evil But it is idle to reason this
matter again. The argument is exhausted in the late
debates The country is satiaed and Disguised with the
discussion. The North sees what these madmen are
aiming at. and it becomes their most solemn duty to
observe the compact which has just been made, and to
keep down these factions. If our brethren OF the North
do not all their moral force TO subdue this des-
psraie crew, the country will ultimately rue il in new
distractions and in ultimate disunon.
