We shall not quarrel with any term The De-
morat may use In speaking Of VIM. III. Seward
Of New York; and &C hope that the intelligence
efihe people Of New York will put him under
Ii. ban when an opportunity offers. But has
,he Democrat been just in his mention Of Ham
iIlon Fisa. the other New York ssn.,ori We
have reason 10 believe thai be was elected on the
ground that he Was no fanatic and though hs
may he an suii-slavery man. yet that he will sus-
tain the campromlse measures Of the last Con-
gress. And notwithstanding what The chilicoIhe
Advertiser has said OF SIR. comin, VIC have not
= doubt thai he will susisn BY his influence and
his counsel. all the eamPromise measures. and

the Mayor Of Lynn. the citizens Of Manhfsld
Springfield" &c. ws.of course know lltlle. ex-
e,ps the action which has induced the Demo-
erst to give Them such prominence in his article |;
and this We think is presumplive evidence that
they are wanting in that intelligence which is
necessary to enable them to comprehend the du-
ties Of good citizcna Bat If we remember cor
recrly. the English Aboli.isnia Thompson met
with very little encouragement, in hrs mission to
the town Of Springfield. and the treatment he re-
esised was any Thing bu, respectful. The ques.
ton Is now undergoing test in the city Of Bo<-
ton. and We shall soon see whether the intcl-
g,nes Of the psople will prslominatc over the IA
n,iicism which evidently perales portion Of
iis citizens in a very great degree.
We are free to confess that the Abolition feel
iny in Massachusetts, has assumed an importance
b. iis alliance with Democracy which may make
IL d,ubifal whether that State should not be On
exception to our rrm,rk. when we spoke Of the
little favor which the fanatics received among the
intelligent portion Of tho people. The citizens Of
Massachusetts,. as well as those Of South Carroll
ma, have. by their action, given cause for the APP
prehension that the Union may I've in danger.
With the united forces Of rree-soilism and De-
mocracy. and Mr.. Rantoul for leader, Web
ser's powerful voice and his patriotic precepts
may be disres,rded. and the Union and The Con-
siiiuion he lramplel under foot. But We trust
I, will no, be so. We have hope that better feel.
inys will prevail; that the alliance which has Civ
en- so much consequence 10 the Aholiiionists will
be broken up; and whether the Wing or the De-
inccra,ic party Is in the ascendcncy, we believe
sha, Old Massachusetts, will be found true to her
s,lf, to the Constitution and the Union. Her
wchs,ers, her Everctts, and the other noble spi-
rits whe have so magnanimousy lahorrd IN be-
half Of tho peace Of the Union, will be as the salt
10 save her.
The editor Of the Democrat is evidently little
afraid Of the doctrine Of accession. He is for il.
and he is az inst il. We DO not like to be trou-
blesanc, hut we must ask one question, as VIC are
not yet fully satisfied, though We are pleased to
see that he has in a measure rctreatcd from the
position in which his first article on % the crisis
seemed to place him. The editor says he is not
ia favor Of secession per Sc. Is he in favor Of it
for the sake Of South Carolina In other words,
If South Carolina should determine to Withdraw
fr,m the Union Tor present grievances. will he
contend that North Carolina shall hear her COM
p,ny! We will not press the question il the ed
iior does not wish to answer.
One word more about submission. The editor
says we have not seen Git to answer his question
OF this point hut infcrs from what we do say that
we are in favor Of submission. The fact is, the
question is silly one. and we gave it the an
swer we thought il deserved. We mean no dis
respect Ii would amuse any one to occupy the
post ofobservaiion that we do, and see how zeal
ously the Democratic papers apply this epithet
su5nissioaist. Il serves them for caption to an
article or for an ending; and if they need an ar
eumcnt, they parade this in with all the pomp Of
heavy artillery which isto completely destroy an
apponent. But LET them have occasion 10 use
