The Fusion of Parties.

AI Hdo dl"iyS DeeH our most earnest Wish to avoid, and, as far as lay in our power avert the tendency which we have witnessed with bit ter regrets, to political organization merely upon geographical bass. No one who has a regard for his country could look on the coming struggle with indifference. The elements are at work, and the thing is to be- It can be post poned no longer. Certain dogmas have been
 infused into political tenets which admit of no apology, and exercise a perfect depotism over mems minds The determination seems to prevail, to forego no effort to "crush out the Institution of slavery, even from the States where It has been recognized bv the Constitu- ton
 The Washington Star of the 22d inst. thus sounds the alarm
 It will be we'll for the South, as soon as pos- Sibe, to appreciate the fact that the next six months is to witness the organization of the most extensive, interruptions and excited anti slavery party Tn every non-slaveholding State so far existing in this country, whose aim is to be the entire destruction of the institution of negro slavery under this government MT. Seward is to be its chief and his leutenants are to be those in every Northern State most cla- morous for place and famous for successful da- magoguesm. The scheme is, in fact, grand conspiracy for the elevation of men to high pla- ces, by playing upon the most dangerous pas sons and prejudices of those in wh, SC charac- ters as politicians, jealousy, ignorance and self sutficency are the leading elements
 The willy character of SEWARD, his unscrl- pulous selfshness and boundless ambition are well-known He has been drilling his forces with untlring energy, and they move with the promptness and precision of disciplined ve- teranS
 We hope to see him again foiled, as he was when he used Gen. SCOTT as cats's-paw, while he was the power that pulled the wires Mo- thing but the firm and unwaverng patriotism of the democratic party can withstand the shock which Is now Ill course of preparation. They should be united, and from their adversaries take counsel and discard all the minor dif1e- rences which embarrass and divide their action We direct their attention for a moment to the following paragraph from the Louisville Jour- nal, which certainly ought to be good authority 1 for the Wings:
 i The Uhigs will assemble in convention at l Cyracuse on the 2Oth of September. They are anti ebraska, but combine various shades of opinion in reference to that measure. Some are for the repeal of the law, but the majority will probably be governed by a practical and more rational view of the subject The whigs are opposed to fusion with agitators, aboli- tionists, and all their co-laborers
 From this, one would Imagine that the whigs repudiated a fusion with the aboiitonists alto- gether. But we doubt if such be the fact For long time efforts have been made to pre- pare the whig mind for this unnatural alliance The Journal does not express itself with its accustomed felicity and dstinctness. The whigs are anti N ebraska, but are opposed to fusion? What does it say of the anti Nebras- ka convention?
 The anti- Nebrasha gathering came off on the 18th, but its dogings are not yet down in the small bills This is collecting of the odds and ends of all creation who are opposed to the Nebraska bill, and who are disposed to kick up fuss generally by striving to repeal the Nebraska bill, the Fugitive Slave Law, recon- struct the constitution, and elect such Cover nor, Congressmen, etc., as will pledge them selves to the advocacy of the largest liberty and the most glaring absurdities. Here will be found democrats of all stripes, Freesoil and abolition whigs, Socialists, Fourierites, Spiritu- alists, and the disciples of most of the vagaries which now afflict society.
 It seems to us that the whigs and anti-Ne- braskans are standing pretty much shoulder to shoulder. What they may effect remains to be seen. A repeal of the Nebraska bill will be an uphill business, and we hardly think it can be accomplished. It would scarcely receive the sanction of the President, even if the mea- sure should not fail in Congress, where We are satisfied 1t can never obtain the requisite vote to pass it over the veto.
 In this State there has been an attempt at complete fusion of these fag-ends of parties: but we think it will be failure. The Louis vile Journal is about right, that "the whigs are opposed to fusion with agitators, aboii- tionists and all their co-laborers." And the Freesoilers (such on prnciple) are quite as averse to fusion with the whigs.
 The tactics of the Know Nothings leave us in the dark as to their determination; but it may be inferred that they will fuse with any party which promotes the largest share ofspoils. -Cin. Enquirer.
