FRIEND WALToS As an individual who
glories IN being a free sOiier, not of the Rob
lnson and Kidder kind, | cannot but admire
your boldness in advocating Anti Slavery
sentiments, and in urging upon the freemen
oil the North, union of effort in advancing
the cause Of liberty. A Northern party,
composed Of the Free Democracy, the Wings
and portion Of the Old Line Democrats, |
trust IN God shall soon see and IN coming
together, we should do il upon the same
principle as men Of different parties have
done in the kindred cause Of Temperance.
No sensitiyeness should be manifested, no
feproaehes cast upon this party or that--but
the only question that should be asked is, are
we right now sound 10 the anti Slavery
faith now and not whether We have been
wings, or free soilers, or democrats. know
that some pfoiessed free soilers have holy
horror in uniting with the wings in this
great moral work; but to my mind, a true
friend of liberty, will as soon unite will
them to promote universal freedom as will
any other party. They declare openly an.
boldly the following creed;-
"No more Baltimore Platforms"
:" No more Slave Territory"
