neeni TO lmpart extraordinary interest TO the canvass
This, together with the other fact that the Issue pre-
sented by the territorial bill for the organization OF the
Territories OF Kansas end Nebraska, now pending be-
fore Congress- has been freely. promptly and boldly ac-
cepted BY the democracy Of New Hampshire aud adopt
ed by lis democratic press, has cordially united the whigs
the aboitonSs, the free-soileIs. the Maine law men,
and all the other deluded and fanatcal elements of the
State in opposition TO democracy. But notwilhstand.
Ing these combinations against Observation-Disclosures
the continued and persislan classification by whig
and iree-soi orators and presses, OF the true in
tent and meaning OF the provisions OF Judge Douglass
the large exerons and liberal sup
ply OF money contributed by wings and abolitionsts in
Boston and other cities-notwhslandin the unweared
and organized opposition OF the temperance pay-no-
withstanding all these added to the other consideration
mat they miss from among them the who has 30
often led them in perilous times to struggle and to
vIctoiy-the democracy OF that noble State never
moved TO the conflict with more alacriy and determna-
ion. The address of the Democratic State Central
Committee, issued by the chairman Colonel John II
George, early in the canvass, is bold, compre-
hensive and stirring announcement Of the issues then
involved, and OF the inducements exertion The odds
against the sterling democracy Of the Granite State are
large, we admit, but we have no fears for the result
The State which overthrow Atwood upon the simple
and naked issue OF the fugveslave law will not be
found wanting in the present crisia The State which
for quarter of century has never with but one brief
exception, wayered in its support OF democratic measures
and democratic men, will not fal,er when the cardinal
doctrines of the party in issue, and are assaled by
whgs free-soilers, and abolitionists combined The
men OF New Hampshire sons OF liberty, one and all ;
they sucked in liberty with their mothers mk they in
herted il with their blood and is the subject of their
daily contemplation and watchful thought They are
men who love freedom; they and their ancestors
fought for it and achieved il in the red throat Of battle
They are the men who till their soil with their own
hands; they their daily bread in their workshops
and other places OF honest industry; they read, they
write, they think; they love the constitution Of the
country and the laws of the country Such are the de-
mocracy of the Granite State And the democracy all
the land may be assured that such men will main
tain the constitutional rights Of the whole country and
every part Of il with all their strength They believe
that this Union only be preserved by such legislation
the part OF Congress, and such an administration Of
the powers conferred by the constitutions as shall give
content and satisfaction all who live under the cons,i
ution,hose people OF the South we'll as those OF
the Norh-and such shall draw all the people OF all
the States closer and closer together by the mutual ties
of kindness, affection, and regard
