WHITE SLAVERY.

Our readers will have observed that on the

IOWA, OCTOBER 4,
THE MUsCATINE ENQUIRER.

In cr;ticising an article Of the {. Muscatine
Enquirer" some days since, whrr.in the de.
fence Of the Nebraska bill By the democratic
party Of Iowa, was declared t. have been the
cause OF ous defeat, and the majority Of D. c
! Cloud, for Attorney General, was brought up
intimated tina, had the friends of the Nebraska
bill made it ri rid lest, as did Mf Cloud, an
enemy to the bill, his large majority in his own
county, while the balance Of the ticket was
an overwhelming defeat. We also in,imated
that Mr.. Clouds democracy would have been
more to ou. liking. had he sustained the plat
form upon which he was nominated. To these
the Enquirer replies in spirit Of supeytatiue
iadigaati0n He lashes US with his donkey I'll
in most vigorous manner, and stakes his pro-
fessional reputltion-wh which was unnecessary,
upon his assertion that Mr.. Cloud adhered te-
naciously to the resolutions Of the Convention
which nominated him. II our memory serves
US, that Convention passed resolution, strong
ly commencing the organization of The Nebras-
ka Territory, and we have seen no expression OF
an organized sentiment of the party since, to
repudiate that resolution. ii will not be denied
we presume, bv even the editor Of he Enquir-
er, that soon after Mr.. Clouds nominati"n, he
appeared in the sire, Is Of Muscatine as noisy
a agi,a,or and opponent of the Nebraska bill, and
addfe ssed meeting in that town, in which ne
denounced the bill.
Now, we submit, if Mr.. Cloud could not
support the resolution Of the
Convention which nominated him, it was his
place to decline the honor conferred upon hiln,
or remain passive aspirant for the suffrages of
The democracy, and not by faithlessness to his
own party, ride into Office upon the shoulders
