The early statesmen of Virginia whose
names have shed undying lustre upon this
ancient Commonwealth, and whose fame Is
cherished as a rich legacy by all true-hearted
Nirginians. have left on record their testimony

cared that his " vote should never be wanting
for its abolition JEFFERSON, in his Notes on
Virginia. in view Of its evils, said 81 tremble

Just PATRICK HENRY: Give me liberty or
give me death" MADISON states that the word
slave would not be permitted in the Constltu,
ton. by the Convention which adopted 1t, and
the early patriots all looked forward to the
time when Slavery would die out They re.
garded it as an evil to be deprecated, and not
a good to be cherished We love and venerate
the memory Of these men; let us also cherish
the principles by which they secured their
fame Patriotism, Humanity, and Duty to our

Slavery to be sectional and Freedom national,
let us seek to make it so by making the Gen

For the National Era.
RIGHT OF PROPERTY IN MAN.

There can bc no cessation of the great con-
test between Liberty and Slavery, now agita-
ting the Union, until politicians and statesmen
shalt go to the root of the evil, and apply II
radical remedy. 1t is said that slavery itself
is the root from which necessarily springs all
the contention and that no harmony can be
expected until that institution is abolished
But slavery is lott an effect of deeper causes,
and cannot he cradIcatcd till those causes are
removed Undoubtedly. II radical cause of sla-
very Is that great source of nil corruption
pccuulary ayarlCc-but not necessarily so
There is doubtless as much avarice in those
States which are free from slavery, rs in those
where it exists but although with many there
tins propensity makes the mind callous to this
evil, yet IN the mass it is oyerbornc by those
sentiments of Justice and humanity which rem.
der slavery ahhorrcnt 10 their feelings We
must thcrci ne look for another reason why il
is still cherished and advocated in our South
crn regions.
This reason we find in the radical difference
ot sentiment derived from early tuition and
custom, between the North and the South, re-
speeding the right and innocency of slavery
With the people of the North it is nm undeni-
able wrong, as criminal as fraud robbery or
murder; and this seems to them so seli-evident
that they require no more proof of IT. either
from Scripture or legal cnactments, than for
those crimes. On the other hand. the people
of the South are brought up from infancy to
regard property in men rs innocent and iusti-
fable rs the possession of any other property ;
and 80 little do they doubt this, that it is al
ways assumed or implied, and never made II
point of discussion in their disputes with North
ern antagonists II is supposed to he admitted
on all hands, that such right of property ex-
lists and hence the perpetual complaints that
slaves, rs property, should be refused admit
lance into new Territories of the United States,
or that they should be withheld from restora-
ton when escaped into II free state. If the
Southern view of the right of property in men
is true one, then it is plain that these COM
plants are Just, If the Northern view is true,
it is equally plain they are unreasonable and
The true question at issue, there
fore, is the abstract right of property in man.
1t is obvious that the authroity for holding
any property, must be shown by the claimant
of such property and that the burden of such
proof lies upon him, and not on the person who
denies this claim, to disprovo it Accordingly

ADDRESS r T INDEPENDENT DEMOCRACY
" THE STATE OF VIRGINIA

FELLow.CTIzESs The undersigned feel
impclcd to Grgc upon your attention the I'M
pOrtdncc ot n firm stand in defence of the prn-
piles Of Democracy, ~ laid down by the Pitts
burgh Convention of the 18th Of August last
In thpt Convention, Virginia was represented
and aa electoral ticket having been chosen. we
call upon all who agree with ~ in opinion and
who feel Disposed e. yindicate the memory Of
the fathers of the Observation-Disclosures and
Jefferson, and Madison, and Jay, and Frank
l.n--by an adherence to the principles they in
culcatrd and labored 10 establish, to vote the
electoral ticket Of the Free Democracy. The
late hour a which the ticket was selected for
bids an extended Address. We therefore only
deem it Necessary to call attention to the prin.
cipes of the Free Democracy rs embodied in
the snhioincd resolutions OF the Pittsburgh
Convention. The views therein embodied in
relation 10 tho true mssun Of American De
mocracy, the powers of the Federal Govern
mcnt, the evil of Slavery, Land Reform, Cheap
Postage River and Harbor improvements and
the other subjects embraced in that platform
are such as should commend them to the liberal
and enlightened judgment Of free people
Thus believing, we ask a candid examination
of the platform herewith presented, not doubt
Jog that many will be found in Virginia who
will indicate by tloir votes their attachment to
he principles here laid down.
