DAILY NATIONAL ERA.

course to disarm the indignation of their
Northern friends, and keep open the way for
reunion.
Next, we observe in some of the Northern pa
pers letters from Missouri, announcing that
the Whigs Of that State do not look with any
favor on the repeal Of the Compromise; in
fact, that the Anti Slavery sentiment prevails
to considerable extent among them.
Rathcr apocryphaI all this, when it is con-
sidcred that their leading organ, the Rspubii-
can was hot advocate OF that act of bad faith,
and has the hardihood to encourage the infa-
nous proceedings Of the Atchison Nulli6ers, who
have lately organized in the border counties OF
Missouri for the purpose Of carrying Slavery
into Kansas by force of arms--and when, too,
srecollected thatthe Wing politicians in that
State joined hand in hand with the Nuiliferp,
in coalition that sent Geyer to the Senate, in
the place Of that old Roman, Col Benton, are
Northern Whigs to be duped by such stuff as
these fictions arc made off
Next, tho attempt to make mans views Of the
Nebraska Bill, a test Of Whiggery, is denounc-
the Bill, because Of any supposed advantages
to accrue to the South, is scouted-and it is
Indignantly denied that, because Northern
Wings voted against the Bill, they are there
fore to be regarded as Abolitionists. Such
notion, tho Frankfort (Ky) Comnons0salth
considers ridiculous. What! hundred Abo-
litionists in the Honse Of Representatives
Besides after all, more Northern Democrats
absolutely voted against the measure, they say,
than Northern Whigs--and are all the North
Ameyican goes 30 far as TO say, that the fact
that not one Northern Wing in either branch
of Congress supported the Bill, is really credit
able to the Northern Whig Party-for it
proves that that Party is moro faithful than
tho Democratic Party to the public sentiment
Of it's sectionthat it has more principle, and
less hypocrisy, than its antagonist.
Meantime, the American, Mobile ALA i'd
usatiser, Vrginia Free Press, Selma Reporter,
Montgomery (Ala.) Journal, North Aiabamian,
and Richmond (va.) Mail, discountenance the
project of . Southern Wing Convention. Their
policy is, to conciliate to speak softly to and
about their Northern brethren, to avoid what
ever may add fuel to the fro already raging
OF the North, and wait patiently until the
"National Wings" as they style them, have
grown COOL and begin to think Of throwing
water on the flames
A single quotation from an editorial in the
Pol rr T,xIvx ell
clearly the deep concern of Southern Wings
at the state of things in the North, the real
reason why they deprecate 80 much the disso-
luton Of the Wing Party, and the grounds on
which they build their hopes of ultimate re-
union.
Alter several remarks in apology for the ex-
element among Northern Wings the Ameri-
can, which, by the way, favored the repeal Of
the Missouri Compromise, proceeds
at has, however, been urged, and with some
truth, that the Northern Wings have not been
content with a mere opposition to the Missouri
Compromise, but that they have colleagued with
abolitionists, and the cry for the repeal Of the
Fugitive Slave Law has been mingled with
their demand for the repeal Of the Missouri
any fact in the case and must admit the force
Of this objection. But it's force is moro appa-
rent than real, and IL wiH rest very much Nth

compact Of the Northern Wigs pith the Free
Soil and Abolition factions shall become real
and tangible danger to the South, or spend itself
in tie mere ebuiiitions phich anger and disap-
poinfmsnf haze created 10 paroxysm of un-
wise anger, the Northern Wings have almost
offered themselves as the willing allos Of Abo-
litionism but there is still room for confidence
that the men who rallied around Clay and
Webster, who stood frmest and foremost in
defence Of the compromise mcasures, viii not
by any ordinary cause, be driven into the per-
manent support of measures threatening the
perpetuity Of the Union or dishonorable to the
South. Indeed, zoe think The recuision that mil
bring the Northern Whig party back 10 its ma

press is rapidly opening it's eyes to tho fact
that the clamor raised for the restoration Of
the Missouri Compromise is but the blind under
which abolitionism seeks TO advance its schemes
of agitation, and to convulse and perhaps ulti.
mately destroy the Union. And the fruit Of
this conviction il already becoming apparent
