and interesting. The Buffalo Republic has
found the tongue which its coadjutors of the
Atlas and Evening Post had lost, and speaks
out plainly against Mr.. TAYLoR's endorsement
of the Inaugural. 1t styles his resolutions an
incendiary effort" to reproduce schism, -
and then strikes at the Fugitive Slave law in
this wise:
'The radical Democracy of New York under
stand this requirement of the Constitution, THAT
relative to fugitives from service,] and have no
wish to prevent those for whose benefit it was de-
signed from profting by it. They do not now be-
lieve, nor did they when the Presidential nomina-
ton was made, that the law enacted under the
Fillmore administration constitutional. When
it was endorsed by portion of the Baltimore Con.
vention the radical Democracy of this State repu.
dated that endorsement. We, in the columns Of
this paper, repudiated it in unqualified terms.
STANDING firmly in this position, we denounce
the movement in the Assembly, which has been
made by the above named Daniel b. Taylor, as
factous and incendiary, conceived in the spirit OF
mischief. maker, with deliberate intention to
foment discord, and ultimately to reproduce a
schism in the party. And we call upon every
friend of union and harmony in the party to dis
countenance the dastardly attempt, and let him
receive the contempt and scorn which he merits"
There is no attempt to disguise here-no
equivocation or false pretence. Our Buffalo
namesake said while the canvass proceeded
that after the election it would oppose the Flu
gitive law as uncompromisingly as before; the
Albany Atlas said the same; the New York
Evening Post echoed the declaration. The
time has not come when the threat can be con-
veniently fulfilled. The spoils are yet in re.
serve, and hasty word may kill the chances
of Barnburning friends. Therefore, and for
this obvious reason alone, the Post and Atlas
have tried to hide their antipathies under the
guise Of general APPROVAL" the Buffalo Re
public has acted more indiscreetly, and now
mars the whole game. 1t has thrown off the
mask which the Barnburners had assumed
proclaims that the party unity to which they
assented was one that involved the abnegation
of the Compromise-and now in effect declares
its readiness rather to risk the spoils than to
forego its cherished purposes of agitation.
.Fhe Albany .argus expresses the Hunker
view Of these Buffalo avowals:
s.The Buffalo Republic, we'll known sheet of
the sablest African hue-Freesoil in 1885, but pro.
Tossing to be OF the united Democracy now-s
out in an indirect attack President PIERCE over
the shoulders of Mr.. D. B. Taylor, of the Assem-
bly,, the author of the resolutions proposing full
and cordial endorsement and approval of the doc.
trines of the Inaugural.
.The pretext here, on the part of Freesoilers, in
and out of the Legislature, for oppugnation to
these resolutions, has been, all along, that they
did not 60 far enough-that they did not en-.
dorse the entire message; and hence the pre-
tended necessity for the substitute offered by
Mr.. Gale. and sustained by the Barnburning side
Of the house-which, instead of approving it az a
whole, distinctly negated any such idea except in
with the Cabinet appointments
sBut the Republic reveals the real ground of
the opposition to Mr.. Taylors resolutions in Free
soil quarters, and the true secret of the attemnt

lodge 1t is not because Mr.. Tayor's resolutions

md are too conioundediy direct and explicit in |
'egard to certain prominent points of the Inau.

news OF the interesting fraternity known as Softs
md Barnburners.
