Brookvile American. who is leaky vessel, leaks

Without money 1t is hopeless for any party to elect any
permanent or important end We hope therefore. the
coming Wing Convention will provide moral political,
and financial basis for the party which shall not only
command respect, but success Men cannot abandon
their busio and their families for months and years
paying their expenses in canvassng districts and
the State, without any return. Ii the party expect n,

DIoney-money is the great element of Wing success.
Their candidates and their political missionaries must
have their purses well filed The occ-Eodes and the
banks bleed freely that Indiana be thrown into the
foul embrace of whggery. This kind Of thing may do
in great cities sweed and bloaed with corruption; but
with the freemen Of Indiana who cultivate the soil and
the bread of honesty the bride will be spurned De-
mocrats look well to your organization and be not Sc

1.-THE Newcastle Courier to prove that we have
backed out from position in relation to the Compro
mise measures quotes the folio wing from late
number Of our paper:
The Democratic party, as il in the days of JEFF
ferson Madison, Jackson and Polk is still the party of
the Union and the Constitution There is no necessity
for the National Convention endorse either the wis.
dom or the policy Of the Compromise measures. These
questions which belong to the history the past
Time the great test which tries the wisdom of human
laws, will determine this question"
BY carefully emitting that which follows, and by gar.
bling this extract from the whole article the whole
meaning is perverted Whilst desire have quar-
rel with those Who like the Editor Of the Courier, orr.
gnay thought the fugitive slave law very bad enact
nent, but who is opposed TO its repeal, still
adhere to our original declaration. Adherence to the
Compromise measures and opposition to the repeal OF
the Fugitive Slave Law" We believe the Compromise
measures although perfect the best that could
be obtained from conflicting interest, ard opposed
their disturbance and opposed 10 those who make oppo.
son these part Of their political creed.
We hope we are understood.
