quiesccs intho platform Of its National Convention,
which includes the following resolntion:-
The series Of acs Of the Thirty first Congress- common
ly known D. the Compromise Adjustment the act for
the recovery Of gves labor included recev-
ed and aequesced in by the wings Of the United States
settlement in principle and substance Of the cub
eets TO which they relate and far these acts
concerned, will maintain them and insist their
strict enforcement, until time and experience shall de-
monstrae the necessity Of further legislation to guard
against the evssodf the laws tho hand the
abuse of their powers the other not imparing their
constitution; and deprecate all further agitation of
the questions thus settled dangerous to peace,
and will dscountenauce all efforts TO continue to
new such agitation whenever, wherever, and however
made, and will maintain this settlement essential
to the nationality Of the whg party and the integrity Of
the Union. ~f1
For this dsgracefa resolution, it is worthy of no.
tice, the entire whig delegation from Massachusetts,
voted with every mark of cordial and unreseryedap
probation.
Such being the thoroughly pro slavery position
Of the WING and democratic PARTIES the opponents
of slavery, in all parts of the Union, looking
with anxiety and hope to the OF the free soil
party. In Massachusetts, at the present moment,
that party has greater relative strength than in
any other State. 1t is thoroughly organized, and
has held for two years triumphant position To
Massachusetts, then, the eyes Of every man who
loves freedom and hates slavery are turned for
counsel and for guidance. The number Of such men
in every free state is yet great and ucre9 sing, not
withstandng the shameful detection Of certain pro-
mDent politicians and presses in some of she States
The absurd panic about the Union, which was got
up to serve their own selfish ends by the ambitious
demagogues who have controlled Congress and the
federal government since the death of General Tay
lor, has died away, and though has done part of
its expected work in forcing the whig and the de-
mocratic parties into submissive attitude towards
the slave power, it has, to the great joy Of all true
men, left those who, in the language of John NJ.
Clayton, raised the ghost of Dsunion to get the
credit oflaying it, in position Of political : ina-
iiy' from which they can never again emerge

the stability Of the Union tne anti slavery sent-
ment is reviying and there is every reason to
believe that it will speedily manifest itself through
out the country with greater strength and detorm-
nation than ever. In Massachusetts, the free soil
party, which represents that sentiment, stands
erect and firm. 1t has put the brand of popular
condemnation on Daniel Webster, the greatest Of
the traitors to freedom. 1t has resisted the arts
and efforts Of the corrupt federal government, of
which he IS The actual head. 1t has Frustrated the
once invincibe wing party Of Massachusetts,, and
has ground it, to use the words of distinguished
She party aPff wbr
wind of military enthusiasm which swept over tho
country. under the banner :of 9 Taylor and Free
SOIL in 1852 il viii resist the same element
under its openly embazoned standard of g Scott
and the Fugitive Slave law" It will pursue,
without wavering, falling off the course it has
successfully pursued for the last four years--the
course of stern and impartial opposition alike pro
slavery wings and pro- slavery democrats
At Worcester, on the sixth Of July, the free soil
party of Massachusetts, will meet in council. Its
ablest its most eloquent, its mos. reliable men will
be there. With them will assemble also, there is
reason to expect, some of the most distinguished
champions Of free soil and free speech from other
States.
We therefore call upon the free sellers of the Old
Bay State to up in their full strength TO the
convention Let the free blood flow from all its
extremites to the sound and true heart of the
Monwealth. 1t will 60 back refreshed and invigo-
rated carrying life and health to every portion
Of the body polite Let every free soicr make it
point of duty to give that day to the cause. Let
them come from their farms, their stores and their
work shops, to cheer and enghten, by their pre-
sence the councils which will be held al Worcester,
and to swell the voice Of encouragement which will
go forth from thence to the reInotest sections of
the Union, strengthen the hopes of freedom, and
to strike terror into the minons Of the slave power
