AN UNBROKEN BACKBONE.
New YORK, June %, 1855

NEW 1ORK, June 20, 1900.
Let our coming elections in the Northern
States be made to express the sentiments of
the people on the one issue, the repeal of
the Kansas and Nebraska Act, and we shall
present along our whole column firm, unwa-
vering front, of overwhelming strength, and OBJ
tain an irresistible prestige of success for the
Presidential election.
Cannot true Democrats, for once, every.
where surrender all other personal and partisan
attachments, postpone the political battle for
all other ends, and be ready to welcome all who
will fight with them under the one banner of
Repeal? Is not the need Of this great enough
Is not this issue sufficiently paramount? Is
not the danger that every other interest of our
country will be sacrificed to the security and
Improvement in value of slave property, suffi.
GENTLY great to warrant US in neglecting, for
the time being, everything else, to resist it?
Those who are convinced of this, should be
most engaged with their best eadeavors to keep
this single question, until 1856, not only more
prominent than all others, but clear of all
others. Let it be 80, and we can certainly
carry every State, almost every township, of the
North but there are hundreds of thousands
of honest men, or of dishonest, perhaps, who
are more strongly convinced of the need of
tariff, or of free trade, or of the repeal of the
INSTRUMENTATION laws, Or OF puttlng down secret
political societies, or of repeating liquor laws,
or of passing prohibitory laws, or of some es,
pecial friend Of their own riding into office,
than they are of the wrong and danger of Sla-
very extension.
Make the simple question of the repeal of
the Ransas-Nebraska act, nothing more, moth
ing less, and nothing else, the issue at any cleo.
ton, and they will all vote right. Let our Con-
ventions couple with their resolutions on this
point, others on other points of the Slavery
controversy, or on any other subject, and GER
tain proportion of them will everywhere be
obliged to vote against their nominations
There are districts in which votes can be
drawn to the Republican ticket by making its
nominees represent the sentiment more gen.
orally held by majority of this class as well
as that of repeal. But it must be remembered
by Conventions, that their action on any of
these minor issues, though it may be favorable
10 Republicanism in their own districts, will be
made use of to disgust people with it in other
districts, where the contrary views of the minor
issue are most popular. AMERICAN.

THE WAY CLEAR FOR 1855.

MoULToNBoRo', N. a., June Is, 1855.
had intended giving up the Era when my
last payment was exhausted, but it was rather
too severe a trial to fulfil my intentions. i have
therefore sent you the money for six months
longer. Since / have learned the result at
Philadelphia, have ceased to wonder at the
severity of language you have sometimes used
towards the new organization, or Secret Order.
But Know Nothingism in New Hampshire IS
not that of Neic York, or of the Southern States,
but may be known by the fruits of last weeks
legislation at Concord, in the election of John
P. Hale for four years, and James Bell for six
years, to the Senate of the United States. 1t is
true Mr.. Bell did help "sare the Union /" in
has amply atoned for this error, by the stand
he has noic taken against the Slave Power and
its Propagandism
This triumph of Anti-Sla~ery principles and
sentiments in New Hampshire, in my opinion,
settles the question for coming time, that these
principles will and must prevail here. But of
this I am we'll satsfed-that if Anti Slavery
Wings and Free Sellers had not secured ma
jority in the Councils of the Secret Order, all
which we have fought for the past ten years in
New Hampshire would have been lost. The
Initiation of the Order had Baker odor /"
about it, which would have surely thrown it
into the arms of the ''Old Line" Democracy.
1t looks now as if the way was cleared for a
Republican Movement in 1856. There is no
hope, with the Know Nothings, of carrying the
Free States, unless upon platform restoring
the Missouri Compromise, and opposed to the
further extension Of Slavery into Territories 1t
is hoped that the hard words and the bitterness
that has arisen between Anti Slavery men of
all parties may come to an end, and that, in the
great contest which is to come off in 1856, we
may be all united and victorious. If we can
all unite, it does look as though victory over
the Slave Power must be achieved.

THE REPUBLICAN MOVEMENT IN NEW YORK

The New York Tribune publishes the follow
ing circular:
New YORK, May 30, 1855.
The repeal of the Missouri Compromise is
followed by its legitimate consequences. The
example of bad faith set by their representa-
tives in Congress has been fifty initiated by
the shareholders of Missouri; and the free set
tiers in Kansas, to whom was promised the
right of determining upon the character of their
domestic institutions, have been driven from
the polls by armed invaders from an adjoining
State, who assume the authority to devote to
Slavery, by illegal violence, the Territory conse-
Grated 10 Freedom by solemn compact in the
last generation. The sympathy expressed in
leading journals in slave States with these law
less proceedings shows that no reliance can be
placed in the good faith of that interest," or in its
Difference to the Constitution and laws of the
country. In the insane desire TO control the
Federal Government, and monopolize its honors,
it has embraced the visionary scheme of main
tanning balance of power between the free and
slave States in the National Congress. Finding
that the more rapid increase in wealth and pop
ulation in the free States renders it impractical
BILE to preserve that equality in the popular
branch, it seeks to maintain it in the Senate by
extending Slavery to Territories where it does
not exist, in the vain expectation of perpetna
ting the ascendency of the few over the many
in the more permanent branch of the Govern
ment. Hence the shameless violation of plighted
faith in the repeal of the Missouri Compromise,
and the unconstitutional and brutal interference
of an organized band from Missouri with the
elections in Kansas.
Such design is equally ct war with the Ira

After reading your articles against Know

where opinion is free to combat it; and as we
have free country in theory, let us make it so
in reality, by giving all men the liberty of dis.
cussing any question of politics or morals il the
