by principle, not by party-that we are not led
by demagogues, by designing men.
The people do their own thinking and their
own voting. They know their rights, and will
maintain them so far as moral and political ac-
ton on their part will do it. They are at all
times prepared to discharge their duty. Sir, in
1948, there was more political effort made to
ir.duce our friends there to vote for the present
Executive, than was ever put forth on any other
occasion. Distinguished gentlemen from other
States, of great ability, aud of Antl-Slavery
sediments, were imported, to show US the pro-
pIiety of voting for men who feared to speak in
favor Of free principles. But those efforts failed
and few mon can now be found who will admit
that they ever cast vote for the present Execu-
tive, man who has prostituted the power OF
his Office to the support of slavery and crime
Now they are to be called on to vote for men
openly pledged and committed to the, work of
eternizng slavery and the slave trade, and the
Fugitive Law. will leave the Free Democra-
cy Of the Reserve to speak for themselves.
They have always done that. Nor ain author
lied to speak for the Wings or Democrats, al
though have been supported for many years by
portion Of both those parties yet ] will risk
the opinion, that not one half OF either OF those
parties on the Reserve will be found voting tor
Scott or Pierce.
Sir, we are in the midst of revolution. The
two great parties are striving to convert this free
Government into slaveholding, slavbreedlng
Republic. Those powers which were delegated
to secure liberty are now exerted to overthrow
fecdom and the Constitution. 1t becomes every
patriot, every lover of freedom, every Christian
every man, to stand forth in defence OF popular
rights, in defence of the rightsof the free States
+of the inssGatons under which we live IN defence
! of onr ma tional character.
Sr, | am getting old, the inhrmities OF age
are coming upon me. must soon leave the
scene with which am surrounded. 1t Is un
certain whether shall again address this body
but one thing ask, that friends and foes herr
and elswhere, in this and in coming time, shall
understand that whether in public or in private
lfe by the wayside or the Preside, in lie or II
death, oppose, dsnounce, and repudiate, tn
efforts now put forth to involve the people o
the free States in the support of slavery, OF the
slave trade, and their attendant crimes.

Position of MIR. Rantoul, &c.

Mr.. Rantoul has been home and given for
NAL address to his democratic constituents as.
sembled at Lynn for the purpose, in which after
demolishing the Baltimore platform and fearless.
ly renewing his battle against the slave power
he raises the question whether, Notwithstanding
all these things, it is expedient for him and his
democratic friends to separate themselves from
the old National Democratic Party? And on
this question he seems to decide in the negative.
The case of Mr.. Rantoul is not solitary one.
Mr.. Fowler of Massachusetts,, Thaddeus Stevens
of Pennsylvania, Senator Seward of Now York,
and several others of the Wing party, and Pres.
ton King of New York, Mr.. Cleveland of Con.
netticut, and many Others of the Democratic
party,-all stand, in reference to their respective
parties, precisely on the ground of MIR. Rantoul (;

GIDDINss' SPEEcH.-We this week have
written no leading editorial, because we have
been enabled to do better, in giving our readers
the late noble speech of the Hon. Joshua r.
Giddings, which meets the new Politcul Crisis
on the Slavery issues, which has been created
by the action of the two great National Conven'
lions at Baltimore, better than anything that has
vet been given to the public. Read it, every
man, treasure up its contents, and then induce
vour neiqbbors to do the same; for we believe
that we're this speech universally read the sup
porters of the twin platforms of Baltimore ant
their nominees, would become, among ca
did and uncommtied masses of the North, n
few and far between as The visits OF The angels

thse and we have received several comun'ca'
tons on the subject on both sides, but think Il
best, at present, at least, not to publish any o

where their election can be secured only oy
voting for them in common with one Of the oiu
parties? However we may regret that these
men do not see their way clear to leave their
old parties, and 90 with us against their noml-
nees as we'll as their Platforms it is still our duty
to weigh this matter candidly, and see whether
it were not better to secure the continuance OF
the evident services of these men 10 the cause
of freedom, by this manner Of supporting them'
than to permit the inevitable result OF a con-
trary course-that of having their places filled
! by the avowed enemies of our cause? ~
In reference to the speech and position oil
Mr. Rantoul, the editor of the LOl0ett .4m"r'cG'''
distinctive Free Soil paper of the staunchest
kind, makes the following remarks which we
think entitled to the consideration of all the
friends of freedom who may find themselves III
similar situation to that of the Free Sellers In
Mr.. RS Congressional DISTINCT
awe had the pleasure Of listening to Mr.
Rantouls speech at Salem on Monday. 1t was
a splendid effort and was received by the large
audience with great appreciation. Nearly at
of his speech was Of an anti slavery character
and his opinion Of the Fugitive Law, the Baltl
more platform and the proceedings OF Ben. hal
let and Edmund Burke, were given with goof
deal Of vigor. Mr. Rantou deems it his dutI
not to separate from the democratic party ; HI
did not mention the names of its candidates, bu
declared himself in favor of supporting them
Some few of the Free SOIL party seem to be dis
appointed at his taking this course but we d.
not see any reason tor disappointment Mr.
Rantoul's services TO the cause of freedom hav
been Of such vas! Importance, and his sincerit.
so manifest, that he must be sustained by tn
Free Sellers, and re elected, 1t will not do t
let the shareholders and doughfaces trump
over freedom by defeating Robert Rantoul, Jr.

pressed hmsefv very comfortable, and laughed at
the trouble the rest ere taking; but when the
party stopped at little tavern on the road, to get
refreshments, that individual had scarcely taken
mouthful, when he fell senseess. II was with
much difficulty that the least animation was re-
stored. He was too feeble TO 60 on, and was left
there in very precaIlous condition.
Traces Of another team were now noticed along
the road, and upon reaching tavern few miles
further on, it was found that the driver Of that
team had been frozen. 1t SENS that he had not
got out with the others at the various taverns.
The team went up to this tavern as usual and the
horses stopped. The passengers jumped out, and
insisted upon the driver going in and warming
himself He made no reply, and upon eXamna-
lion, he was found stone dead He was left
there, another driver was procured, and the FORE
most team drove on again.
Those in the hindmost team, in which was our
informant learned lesson from this sad calami-
w. and took more precautions than ever against
insdous cold. Beyond Erie, the road was much
better. The storm somewhat abated, and the
rest of the Journey TO Painsville, though tedious
and uncomfortable in some respects, was far less
fraught with danger than that from Buffalo to
Erie. Most of the passengers arrived here last
night.

of the case of kidnapping, which was perpetrated
on Tuesday of last week, in West Nottingham,
Chester County, Pennsy lvania; and we earnestly
ask them TO look at the issue Of that case Indigna.
ton and horror alternately contend for the mastery
of our feelings, contemplate this tragedy
throughout is various incidents, in its various rela
lions, and 10 It's fatal end In the first place, the
sovereign State Of Pennsylvania was invaded, with
an unlawful purpose, by McCreary, the Maryland con.
stable. In the next place, McCreary and his agents
seized and stole away from Pennsylvania, girl
undoubtedly free; and they iorcibly carried her to
Baltimore, without even condesoending to go through
the prescribed forms Of the Fugitive Slave Law
MIR. Miller, Pennsylvania farmer, knowing the
girl to be free, followed her and the kidnappers to
Baltimore, where he applied to the legal authorities
to have the case investigated; and while returning
to his home, he was waylaid and hanged by esthe
Union-loving, Constitution-respecling, law,abidng
citizens of Maryland"
If this act had been commit ed upon citizen o
the United States, in any other place within the
compass of the earth, but Slave State, the gsVera.
ment under whose jurisdiction it took place, would
have been peremporly forced TO answer for it to an
indignant aud aroused nation. Bot because it has
taken place within the Jurisdiction, and under the
Egis of Savery, all hope Of redress, and all expec-
tation Of Justice futile Can il be, that even our
doughlaces and huners will submit TO this insult to
the power, this exhibition of contempt for the spirit
this outrage upon the rights, and this attack upon
the lives of Nothem men.
What, we would calmly ask, is the value Of the
Union, to men like Mr.. Miller, when in the event of
their seeking the faithful discharge Of constitutional
law, in State moi their own, they are murdered by
desperadoes whose "pecuiar institution" over-rdes
the Constitution? What man, with the soul of man
hood in him, would submit to the supremacy of the
institution of Slavery in view of such results fow-
ing from il?
How preposterous, how absurd, il is to talk of
Compromises" or concessions, putting stop to
Anti-slavery agitation. The brigands who maintain
the institution of Slavery will not let it resi- in silence
if the North would. They daily provoke discussion
of ii, by their violence, their contempt of social law,
and by their murders.
