editors have sustained the Know Nothing Or
der, in reply to paragraph in the Era, express
I ing hope that that journal would be no party
TO plot for packing the Republican Conven-
ton to meet in July, at Columbus says:
ave are opposed to the packing of Conven-
tons. We would have the transactions of the
Convention free, open, fair, untrammelled by
any outside associational influences"
ACTING ToGErHER.-Our friend of the hide
pendent N. II. Democrat must not misappre
.hend our position. With the Know Nothings,
sWhigs, Democrats, Neutrals, we would co-ope-
rate, as Individuals. Even now, we are willing
to see general Fusion of the People on Anti
Slavery issues, sCithom distinction of party.
But, we protest against cooperating with the
Know Nothings, as party, giving the Order
itself aid and countenance, and securing to it
successes which are inevitably to be used for
building up another National Pro-Slavery Par
ty on the ruins of the old Wing organization.
"Were the dangers to liberty less imminent"
says the Democrat, "we might join our friend of
the Era in a crusade against Know Nothingsm.
But, as things now stand, we feel very much
like postponing that diversion, and accepting
the aid of every man and every organization
that will strike blow at the common enemy"
This is just as if the Democrat in l848 and
1852, had said, "Were the dangers to liberty
less imminent we might join our friend of the
Era in crusade against the Wing and Demo
cratic Parties but, as things now stand, we
feel very much like postponing that diversion"
Aye, and had you done So you would have
struck no blow at Slavery-for these Parties
were its bulwark, just as the National Know
Nothing Party is now.
Is it possible that so veteran an editor as our
friend, has overlooked the fact that the fifteen
State Councils of the South, and the State Coun-
ellis of New York, Pennsylvania, and New Jer
sey, are pro-slaue,y, thus securing an absolute
maj ority in the National Convention, while it
can hardly be doubted that in Indiana, if not
Ohio, they will assume the same character?
What has come over our friends to imagine
that a moiety of one hundred and fifty thousand
Independent Democratic voters, on entering in
to Secret Order, embracing million of vo-
ters would be able to determine its creed and
policy on the Slavery Question?
DELEGATE FROM OREGoN-One of our sub
scribers in Oregon writes:
=" From present appearances, Joseph Lane,
late Delegate to Congress from this Territory,
will be defeated in the coming election in June.
1t is the opinion Of many, that the Wings and
Know,N othings will elect their candidate, who
will probably be a liberal Wing"
The national era. [volume] (Washington [D.C.]) 1847-1860, 1855-05-17
LATER FROM KANSAS.

The ST. Louis Mtelligencer announces the ar
rival of G. s. PARK iRtlAt city, on his way to
Illinois, where, it is said, he intends to reside.
1t is denied that he was lynched, after the de.
struction of his Office, as some of the papers re-
ported. 1t seems that the purpose he announ-
ced in the card published on our first page, of
remaining in Parkville, has been abandoned.
The rowdies who did the voting for the People
of Kansas, lately held a meeting, at which they
nominated Mr.. Atchison for the Presidency,
and Senator Toucey for the Vice Presidency !
Poor Mr.. Touceyl This is worse than being
burnt in effigy by his neighbors.
A telegraphic despatch received in St. Louis,
May 9th, announces that the mob-meeting call
ed to take measures to avenge the death of
Clark, assembled at Fort Leavenworth A great
disposition was evinced to hang McCrea, but
the commanding officer at the Fort refused to
give him up, and nothing was done.
The same despatch announces that cholera
has broken out in the western part of Kansas,
and in Kansas city. If this be not rumor set
ahoat to check the flow of Eastern immigration,
the probability is that some cases of the disease
have appeared among the emigrants pursuing
the overland route to California.
The national era. [volume] (Washington [D.C.]) 1847-1860, 1855-05-17

without molestation, and the question concern
ing the character of its institutions would be
decided only by themselves. But, the Pro-Sla-
very Party is bold, reckless, lawless-for 1t
knows its advantages. With Senator Atchison
at its head, with the Secretary of War to stand
between it and the Federal Authorities, with
the President in bondage to the Slave Interest,
what has it to fear?
Shall the lesson, we again ask, be lost upon
the People? Will they stupidity, wickedy sur
render themselves to the domination OF any
Party which attempts to ignore the Slavery
Question, and help install in the Presidential
Chair, in 1856, a man, pledged in any way to the
Slave Interest? Will they not rather cast aside
all party bands, trample under foot all ordinary
questions, and place in the Presidency man
true to the Cause of Freedom, and with the
ability and courage to maintain its just claims
and interests7
This is the only way to decide peacefully the
struggle between Freedom and Slavery. The
blood, shed in the attempt to enforce the Fugi-
tive Act in Pennsylvania, the humiliation of
Boston, twice subjected to Federal bayonets
for resistance to that act, the conflict between
Federal usurpation and State Sovereignty, in
the slave trials of Cincinnati, the piratical con-
spiracies to seize Cuba, the repeal of the Mis-
souri, Compromise, and the late violent and
bloody doings in Kansas, are the legitimate
results of the policy of voting for Compromise
candidates, as they are styled, for the Presi-
dency.
So long as your Presidents are instruments
OF, the Slave Power, its unreined diabolism
will have free course; no right will be held
sacred, no law respected; the country will be
in constant danger OF bloody local collisions,
tending to faction and civil war. Wrest the
Federal Administration from its grasp, and
make it the exponent and executor of the
views and will of the great majority of the
American People, whose interest lies in the
extension of the blessings of Liberty, and the
Reign of Terror will cease-devotion to Slavery
will be no longer passport to honor and office,
nor will its advocates venture upon deeds of
violence and anarchy.
