THE SARATOGA CONTENTION.
From The AuJurn Daily Ad-e,t..e-


that the AntiNebraska State Convention which Is
be held at Saratoga Springs the 18th day Of August
next, will be largely attended. The Whig papers in DIFF
erent parts Of the State bringing the matter the
tenon of their readers and urging them circulate calls
in their Assembly Districts for county conventions,
elect Delegates in order that every county may be fully
represented We notice that many Of the Democratic
papers which opposed to the Nebraska BILL also
| doing what they can TO insure full attendance.
The people Of New-York almost unanimous in their
opposition 10 the Nebraska perdy and II Is therefore
inenty proper that they should meet in convention and
take such action upon the subject they may deem wise
and proper The South has been warned, time and again.
of the danger of pressing her arbitrary demands through
Congress- in opposition to the known wishes and in viola
ton OF the acknowledged ghts OF the people OF the free
States and is time that the evidence be furnished
her that in violating the Missouri Compromise for the pur
pose Of extending Slavery territory that has been de-
cared forever free she went step too far.
If the people of the free States would firmly resolve
that in all future contests for COngresmen their aim shl
be TO elect such known be right the great
question Of Freedom and if the Legislatures Of these
States would at the time resolve 10 be governed by
similar considerations in their selection of United States
Senators, the South would soon nd that she he'd been
rendered poweress for further mischief in our National
Legislature. 1t Is only by the assistance OF miserable
doughfaces from the North that the South has been able
for years past TO the passage Of unjust laws for
building up and strengthening the Peculiar Institution.
The fixed purpose of the North should be to get rid Of
such traitors If II requires the sunderng OF ali party
| lines to accomplish the work.
We hope the friends OF Freedom hroughOu this county
will that the call for County Convention to appoint
delegates to the Anti Nebraska State Convention has
general circulation in every town. But little time left
for the work and should therefore be taken hold OF at
The Convention 10 appoint delegates should be held

County MASS CosvESTIoS.-Snce the call for County
Mass Convention OF ali those opposed to the repeal OF the
Missouri Compromise issued, have had the oppor
tuny of conversng with many Of all parties, and find
there is but one opinion on the subject Not only the
neoss1tv but the propgsetg of such moyement admitted
by all. Many OF those who are the most active IN the
matter those who up to this time have been strongly
conservative, who have supported the Fugitive Slave
Law and who have always been opposed to the agitation
of the slavery question: But when the South Themselves
commence the agitation and that too for the ayowed OBJ
ject of extending slavery when they Themselves repu
diate both the Compromise of 1920 and that Of $780,
by reopcnng the agitation when they violate al the
pledges they made TO the conservative men OF tle North
that they would hereafter rocist tho agitation OF tha
question: ana themselves reopen the whole thing, insu
and outrage the North they have during the past
sion Of Congress- those who in AZ and so, stood by
them through all the excitement and agitation of those
periods DO not feel under any obligations to sustain them
IN their perhdious course Neither is thS movement al all
confined any party but Wings and Democrats laying
aside all considerations, unite in the movement and
cooperate in resisting by some dectua means the schemes
of those traitors OF freedom VINO are plotting ior me eG
tension OF Slavery
The county mass meeting shoud be full one, and at
tended by men from every town in the county. full
and clear expression of the feelings OF Osego Co. should
be had at that meeting and we doubt not Will be had
Let every opposed TO the Douglas swnde take hod
of the work in earnest, aud not only roll up mammoth
list of nanes but make point 10 be prepared to attend
the meeting of the sth of August.
Individual action what is wanted to do the work. and
make the meeting which will tell on the coming eee,
ton Take hold of the work in good earaes friends and
let the Compromise and pledge breakers understand that
Osego Co. does not approve of their perhdou course
