Important Movements OF the Anti. Slavery
Party Of tho North-BAlancc or Power In
the Presidential Election.
The anti slavery party Of the North has at long
commenced its movements and operations in the
approaching Presidential election. We give else
where in our columns, very important manifesto,
written and issued by the AntiElavery State Com
mittee Of Massachusetts,, and published in their
Boston newspaper organ, calling State convention
together at Worcester in that State for the purpose
ofbegnning their great operations in the approach
ing election for the Presidency. The same com
mttce has already put forward the candidates whom
they prefer-thsse being John P. Hale, of New
Hampshire, and Cassius NJ. Clay, Of kentucky. In
this manifesto, they denounce, with equal bitterness.
the platforms, the principles and the candidates Of
the two national parties-ths wings and democrats
who held their conventions recently at Baltimore.
In the language Of ono Of the anti slavery organs
in this neighborhood-which, by singular moon
sistency, supports General Scott while it re-
pudiates the principles of the patform--ths
manifesto may be said to 'defy, execrate, and
spit upon" tho platforms and principles both Of
the wbig and democratic parties. The anti.
slavery people Of Massachusetts, and the North,
have now it seems, attained their growth, and are
determined to organize party Of their own, and to
combine in this movement all the strange isms,"
and doctrines, and ideas, and crotchets, and vaga-
ries which have been agitated in this country for
the last twenty years. This convention Mt Worces-
ter is merely the first Of series, passing around
the Northern States, to be more generally repre-
sented and organized by a national convention, to
be held at Pittsburg on the 18th of August This
latter will be Ne great organ and authorized expo
nent Of the party which is now about to enter the
field and contend against both the whig and demo-
cratic parties for the electoral votes Of the free States
of the North.
There is every prospect that anti-savery, with all
the other " isms" that have been agitated for
years past, is rising to head, and will set I'D
isreH, Anu unaIly, c1tner 10 rule or
to be ruined. Since the nominations by the two
parties at Baltimore Indication have sprung up in
various quarters, showing a common feeling, among
tho utras Of the day, to meet together to nominate
their candidates. to construct their Platforms and to
run on their own hook at the election In November
next. The Anti-Slavery Committee Of Massachusetts,
nave called convention at Pittsburg. meeting Of
the same kind OF people was held the Other evening
- a1nN~ II n n
their candidates and platforms, were equally de-
nounced. meeting was recently hold in Cam
bridge, at which attended the Hon. and Rev. Mr..
Pslfrey, where similar sentiments were promul-
gated; and meetings are being held all over tho
North and Northwest, developing the same--views,
the same principles, and the same purposes Gen.
eral Scott end General Pierce are denounced by
this new party with equal JUNCTION and equal vigor
1t very evident therefore, from every aspect Of
the case-from every developement of opinion
through the free Statcs--that all the strange va
carries of fancy which have been put forward by DO
iticians, or mOralists, Missionaries, during the
last twenty years, are now going to form grand
unon-construct new party, and enunciate new
principles, at the convention about to be held ut
Pittsburg on the eleventh Of August. Anti-siavery
is the basis of this new m1 lment; but, com
bined with this feeling and 6rmly uniting with
it, we expect to see the notions about in.
tervention in European affairs, the Maine
Liquor law excitement, the anti. rentism doc
trines Of New York and other States, the spiri.
tual knockings, and oil those who believe in such
dclusions, woman's rghtism, and these among the
fair EEK whs want to walk in Bloomer costume In
short, all the yagaries of opinions in doctrines and
parties, and politics. and religion, and morality, and
social life which have been famed and agtated by
she politicians and editors of the whig party and Of
the democratic party, for particular selfish purposes
are now going to unite and set up shop on their own
account-construct party Of their own--run can.
didates Of their swn, and make . decided, bitter.
and Interchangeable opposition to both the old parties
and to both classes Of men who have been setting
them agoiDg for the last twenty years
This lie an entirely view and new phase of
these isms Of tho day. We expect to see this no.
velty acquire prodigisus force and momentum during
the next two or three months. AL these philoso-
phers-mcn and wemen-politicians and pickpock-
es-who have been agitatng the werld, win now end
common bend and . common field in which to
operate, and carry out their vagaries to some
practical purpose and extent. They will carry
of from the old parties vast masses Of the
votes, particularly Of that class who have hereto
fore been more attached to the wing ranks Seward
and his editors, who have been agitsting and
tanning these vagares for the last fifteen twenty
years, will most probably, in this coming mania I
and excitement for the construction Of now party,
be left high and dry, without materials, but with
few officers merely, to enter into the field
The first movement, which will be watched by
the whole country, in this effort at the construction
of new party, takes place on the 9th Of July
next weok-as the Worcester State Convention,
which win be q singularity md rarity not often
found in the history Of politics. In this city and in
