rHE LAST FRAUD OF THE ABoIIrIoNIsrs.

II Is apparent that the address against the Ne
braska bill put forth speaking the sentiments of all
those who opposed that measure the production Of the
abotonists and northern wings alone aided by two or
three democrats The meeting at which the proceedings
took place held the Of Hon o. B. Matteson OF
New York the known organ of Senator Seward Doubt
less he felt anxious receive democrats at his parlor
the spider 10 welcome the flies But the bait did not
take Democrats the object plainly and atonce and
they recoiled from it Notwithstanding this however the
effort continues to be made by the wing press of the North
TO show that that meeting participated in by oil who
had opposed the Nebraska bill We copy from the Wash
ngton correspondence of the Philadelphia North American
dated June %, 1854, a most reckless extract:

DEMOCRATS OF THE NORTH AND WINGS OF THE
SOUTH

The arch-enemes of the democratic party are appalled,
at the wholesale deserion of the wing in the South
They the formal withdrawal of the saunchest southern
wings with undissembled alarm Even Greeley begins to
feel that he has gone far and that the league
the North between Americans religious bgots and
abolition fanatics be kept up but temporarily and only
by Of the most fearful character against private
rights and public order In this dilemma the leaders of
the northern wing ranks call upon the northern democrats
to forward and fill the vacancies left in the wing
ranks by the almost unanimous revolt of the southern
wings. And they expect TO succeed at this game Mr..
Seward is really quite oveoyed the prospect of rayng
large party Of democrats under his black standards
There is not much inspiration in the cause truly DEM
ocrats, however they may have differed single qes-
TONS win not be ready to break up their associations
and unite with those who differ from them in all bit
Besides while the democracy of the North know that
their steadsness and courage keep alive the fires of
h in the South and attract coors in that quarter
hosts of patriotic wings they will not be eager to leave
their ranks only strengthen the hands of fanatics
pledged to sectional disaster and to national ruin

SETTLEMENT OF KANSAS BY SUBSCRIPTIONS.

SETTLEMENT OF KANSAS BY SUBSCRIPTIONS.

scheme resortcd to by the aboonsts to abolitionze
Kansas and Nebraska by Of joint stock companies
to promote emigration into these Territories We have
already commented upon the character of these exraord

conclusion is that certain shrowd spectators in money,
stocks and lands have concocted this ingenious device

northern people This Is suggestion which will be either
confirmed dsproved in short time. The Mercury
makes the following comments:

age and impulse Of abolition.
'Now Kansas lies directly Missouri and the peo-
Pile OF that State have been idle spectators

Of being made the victims Of deliberate abolition conspra-
cy. They have bad abundant experience Of
