The Right Spirit.

The Wabash Express calls on the editors Of The Terre
Haute Journal to define their position the Fugitive
Slave law This call is promptly responded 80, in the
following patriotic and indep pendent style:
Our position the fugitive slave law well on
all the compromise measures was too well known, we
supposed to require repetition. We have written and
all the papers in Terre Haute and yet the Express man
cannot understand position We will enlighen him
again by expressing entire approval OF the fugitive
slave law as well the whole OF the compromise mea-
sures, believing them be final settlement OF long
excited question: and mutual concession by North and
South in order that the peace and harmony of the States
may be preserved all sectional feeling aayed by spr-
it of kindness and moderation and that glorious
Union may still continue he fabric of freedom and
power, cemented together By the ties of interest and
affection, and bidding defiance to time and trial. when
the rains descend and the floods come, and the winds
blow, and beat upon it, it will not fall but be still more
glorious with age, protecting and protected by mighty
community 1t will extend its benefits far and wlde like

pose the repeal Of any Of the acts believing that can
be done without danger the harmony of the States
