This is making it strong wit tn, Their nome

too strong. The plan of Gree ey 8, first to re-
store the NJ ssourl line and after that is accom-
plshed to proceed to tie alb Lit on of slavery

The difIerei ce between the Fourierite plan and
that of the Worcester Convention is, then, sim
ply this:-Wbile the former coatemplates re-
ducng the South to secession, revolution and
civil war, by capturing its outposts and cutting
up its deiences in detail, the latter proposes to
accomplish the came end in general battle
along the whole line. The Massachusetts, ALI
ance goes for the whole or none."
An4 this holy anti-slavery alliance Of wings,
democrats, and free sellers, and aboitionists
proper, is sty led the republican Party" How
forcibly this " stealing OF the livery OF heaven
to serve the devil in reminds US Of the indig-
nant exclamation of Madame Roland, when
led to the guillotine by the sans cniotte assas-
sins of the Reign of Terror, concerning the
execrable crimes committed in the name of
liberty. The republican party! Why not
bluntly call it by some appropriate name, such
as the revolutionary party, or the civil war
party, or the disunion party?
Well, the ball is in motion. The Massachu-
sets Wing State Convention of the 10th of
August will most probably merge the WING
party of the State, body and breaches, into
this abolition republ can party. The grand
State Convention of the anti-slavery confede-
rates of this State, to be held at Saratoga ON
the 10th of August, may be expected to adopt
the Worcester platform. What with these and
other anti-slavery movements in the North and
the Northwest, we may further expect the ap-
pointment of some early day for national
convention of the new Northern anti-slavery
alliance. Then our warnings to the Union men
Of the North, and to men of all parties in the
South, vial begin to be understood then the
honest Union-loving men Of all parties will
appreciate the imperative necessity for the
otSoHAotiOA Va u Lew udelOAdl, OuAOu duu COu-
stitutional party, capable Of gtappling with
this Northern anti-slavery hydra-headed mon
ster, and resolved to lay him in the dust; then
the absolute folly and danger Of any further
reliance upon the administration will become
manifest, and then every patriot will feel the
weight of the question-What is to be done?
Heretofore, the repeated agitations of the
slavery question have been temporarily quoted
in paltry Presidential stock-jobbing compro-
misses Now. the issue direct in the battle must
be conclusive one way or the other. We call
the attention Of Southern statesmen and Doliti-
clans Of all parties. and especially the political
newspaper press Of the South, to the proceed
ings OF the Worcester Convention and otaer
Northern antislavery movements AID ask Of
our Southern contemporaries to inform us what
is doing in the South, what Southern men pro
pose to do, and what they ought to do, in re-
terence to the crisis which is upon u.s. 1t is
here; apd no honest lover of the institutions
the constitution and Of the unity of this re-
public can any longer blink the issue We call
in vain upon the scattered fragments Of the
old broken-up political parties of the. North;
If the New York hard shells are to be sus-
tanned in their national principles they must
be sustained by the South. Let us hear from
cur Southern contemporaries. Whathave they
to say?
