Daily national era. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1854, 1854-06-24

The good People have been cheated once
too often. Let them see to it that there DO no
lodging, no double dealing, no trickery. They
who are for the Administration, are for the
repeal Of the Missouri Compromises, for the
opening of all our Territories to Slavery, for
the whole series of measures embraced IN the
scheme of the Slavery Propaganda They
may protest as much as they please--it does
not change the fact. What do by another,
do myself II my agent commits crime, glo-
ries in his shame undertakes to browbeat or
trick me into acquiescence, and continue to
him my countenance and support, am an ac-
complete in his crime.
Every device will be resorted to- for the pur-
pose Of constraining acquiesccncc in this abom-
Unable outrage. Mr.. Marcy, a member Of the
Cabinet, would doubtless wish it to be under
stood that the repeal Of the Missouri Com
promise was in opposition to his views and
counsels; but, as it is thing done, he will
now recommend to his New York friends to
be quiet. cit can't be helped and now, do
not suffer your Indignation to throw the State
into the hands Of the Whigsn
Some may be wheedled by such an appeal
they may feel 10th to desert one who has bat
tied for their interests and secured their section
of the party 30 reasonable share Of patronage.
Had it not been for Mr.. Marcy, there would
have been no reunion of the Anti Slavery and
Pro-Slayery Democrats of New York. Had it
not been for that reunion General Pierce would
not have been elected, the Missouri Compro
mise would not have been repealed, and we
should not now be on the brink of war
with Spain for Cuba. What then 10 there SO
meritorious in Mr.. Marcy, as to entitle him to
the gratitude and support Of the opponents Of
Slavery? IL no believed the proposition to
repeal the Compromise to be wrong, great
wrong, it was his plain duty to retire from the
Cabinet after unsuccossfulIy opposing it. In
remaining, he became particeps c,imi',as The
Cabinet is a unit, and the responsibility rests
upon every member.
Mr. Marcy is now, if is reported opposed to
q war for the acquisition Of Cuba-but if war
should be resolved on and he remain in the
Cabinet, will no responsibility attach to him
He may be opposed to violence in relation to
Cuba, but who believes that at this time he is
not doing what he can to effect it's acquisition
by purchase-the acquisition of an Island,
which is looked to by the Slave Power to give
it preponderancc in the Senate commercial
power; the command of our coast trade and Of
the great routes to California, and facilities for
Interior operations southwardly2 And is it
for this he is entitled to the support of the lib
eral Democrats of New York Is it in graft
tude for this that they shrink from an open,
honest manly opposition to precmnently
Pro- Slavery Administration
We call upon the Democratic People of New
York while their brethren in other States are
indicating Willingness to forego all party at
tachments, in their devotion to the Cause Of
Freedom and Free Labor, to think, and speak,
and act for themselves. Let calculating poll
ticiaas look after the spoils-they have high
or work to attend to- IL Mr.. Marcy and those
who cling to him, choose to become submission
ISIS, mere instruments of the Slaveholding Oil
garcby, it does not follow that they too should
pass under the yoke. In New York, as in all
the free States, let the rallying cry be, Union
for Liberty
