INTERESTING TO FREE SoILERs.-We
learn by underground telegraph, that after the
nomination of Gen. Pierce and the enactment
the last Loco. FocO Platform at Baltimore, Hon
HENRY b. STANTON became alarmed lest the
tender conscience and deep anti-slavery con-
,ctiops of JOHN VAN buren, might lead him to
oppose that Platform and it's nominee. Stanton
accordingly wrote the Prince earnest letter,
warning and entreating him to go the whole
apimsl and leave all Free Soil lummery out Of the
question. 1t is known that ohm in his life time
has carried on a rather varied correspondence, Of
a religious and miscellaneous nature, but the
telegraph AYERS that even an epstle on stated
preaching could not have taken him more
absck than this one, from the former Abolition
lecturer and redhOt coadjutor Of Mr.. Garrison.
Nevertheless, he gave an earnest and solemn con-
sideration to its advice and after great struggles
Of soul, finally determined to follow it and go for
Pierce, Platform and all. This is the same John
Van Buren, who held, in 1913, such principles
as the following
:" am the unmitgaied enemy Of Slavery, and would
have abolished without delay say, therefore, for
myself-snd wish 10 DO understood as speaking for
necessity whatever support man VINO does not be-
ieve Slavery 10 be an unmxed curse, and who will
