REr. Duer's Distress.

the avalanche of news then before US irom
washington. We decided, however, eaas
th;a oouJd the better wait, and are glad OF
# But for everything there is time and
a season.' and this is the time for attending
to MIR. Duer's grievances.
- There were two parties in the Conven-
ton, says Mr. Duer--one decidedly favora-
BILE, the other hostile to Gov Seward and bis
views. Well; whic6 Of these parties adj
Tered to the principles and rieaos hitherto
proclaimed BY the Wdigs Of Neac- York;
That strikes US as the previous question,
which Mr. Duer is careful not to raise. We
appeal to the record to prove that the ma
.jority stepped simply and squarely in the
path marked out by our preceding Wing
State Conventions ever since the question
Of Slavery Extension was raised upon US
by the first intrigues for annexing Texas
to the Union. Trace back the record-we
challenge you to do it The Wing State
Resolutions Of 1850 with regard to Slavery
and its Extension are Identical in spirit and
scope with those passed by the Wing State
Conventions Of 1914, al, 48 and '49. We,
who stand with the majority in the Syria
ouae Convention, are the Conservatives Of
eur we'll known Wing principles, while those
who bolted with Mr.. Duer are the new-lights
and innovators. The gist Of our ofense is
refusing to Jump Jim Crow with Messrs'
Webster and Duer.
But, says Mr. Duer, in substance, the
majority sought to degrade US by requiring
us to abandon our principles.'-No, Sir.
The fact is not sol You had the fullest op'
portunity to express your own sentiments,
and did it; they are on record, and might
have been proclaimed and recorded as en-
phatically as you saw fit. All that the ma
jority claimed was the privilege Of express
ing their owa views and those Of their con-
stituents that was their right, and they
exercised it. You say the existing state of
facts are thus and 80 the majority cannot
see them in that light Would you insist
that they should not recognize the SUMS
shining because you happened to be struck
blind2
\ But we stand by the Adjustm ent,'
y says Mr.. Duer, while they insist on re-
newed agitation No, Sir You can only
make your case plausible by continual mis-
statements The majority's resolutions do
not call for nor imply perpetual agltatlon.'
They do not censure the President, as you
seek to make out; they do not condemn the
Adjustment; they DO not propose any dis,
