am yours truly, WILLIAM J. Brown
To DAVID WHM0T.
In the foregoing letter he makes pledge to
organize the committees on the District of Co.
lumbia, the Territories, and the Judiciary, sat
sftctorily to those who were known rs the
ultra freesoil party, OR. WImot, the putatiye
father Of the Proviso, and his friends And,
notwithstanding these antecedents Of Mr.. Brown,
the correspondent of the Baltimore Sun, dem

istration, politically as well as officially"
The history Of this Administration reveals
with great clearncss the extent to which anti
slavery has poured ont its leperous distilment
through the Northern and Eastern States. The
party most thoroughly opposed to Southern in
stitutions trjumphed while in the North those
who Stood by TIE Union, when commissions
shook it to its centre, have been excluded from
Executive fayors

sisted in the formation of this uuholy coah-
ton -
The serpent that lid sting thy monarch's life.
Now wears the crown
We ask for what purpose abolitionsm has
been raied from its embers Mt this time3 Why
has this new impulse been given to party THAI

use Of the patronage of the Government And
is not such a use of the patronage well oalcu-
lated to give strength and influence to those who
inimioal to the hest interests of the country.
The Administration must attribute the sus-
picious Of a bargain to the circumstances in
which il is placed 1t must change the circum-
stances while these exist, the opinions oil men
cannot be changed. We must adjudge the
Administration according to the old maxiln-
