Mr.. ELLIS,
Editor of the american Organ.
SIR: am the sole proprietor, the sole publisher
and the sole editor of the National Era.
am neither part owner nor phole owner Of the
American Organ, and never have been.
There is no kind of connection, direct or indi-
rect actual possible, in interest sympathy, in
principles, aims, or policy, between the two jour
nails. Yours, respectfully,
viii the Richmond Enquirer now make the
amende honorable, and withdraw its unfound
cd charged Or win it make some "plea Of
epasion" to avoid the force of this plain and
direct rcfutation of its charger
Will it substitute some other equally I'M
grounded representation, in the place of its
repeated allegation, that the proprietor or
publisher Of the National Era is one Of the
proprietors Of tho american Organ'
We shall await the response of the Enquirer,
and see whether it will promptly withdraw this
charge, or resort to some shift or evasion, in
the hope to escape the condemnation which an
enlightened public will pronounce against it.
The Administration VS.. The Nebraska Bill.
Messrs. Morrison and Kittredge, of New
Hampshire, are two OF the three Democratic
nominees for reelection to Congress. Both of
these gentlemen are members of the present
Congress, and voted against the Kansas-Ne-
braska bill at the. last session They are both
against that bill now, and would vote for its
repeal They are the administration candi-
dates Thus in the South the Forney and
Pierce party sustain that measure, and at the
North they oppose IL
We stated, few days ago, that tho admins
tration party in New Hampshire was an anti
Nebraska party, and challenged denial. No
denial has come viii the Richmond Enquirer
and the Richmond Examiner put this into their
pipes and smoke it, Will Mr.. Wise discuss
this question and elucidate itY
If the American party" in any portion of
the North, is to be held responsible for the
election Of ani-Nebraska men to Congress
pray why not hold the Forney and Pierce party
responsible for the sentiments Of their recog-
missed nomineesY
The American party" distinctly dsclaims
any conneIion with questions outside of their
platform Of principles, of which the Nebraska
bill is one. The administration party is, par
excellence, the professed guardian of southern
rights and interests, and yet allows its recog-
Missed conventions Gas in Ohio to denounce
slavery and pledge themselves TO ERADICATE
IT." and in other States TO sustain anti ebras-
ka men for Congress Aye, in New Hamp-
shire, the natipe State Of the nominal Presi-
dent the Forney and Pierce candidates for Con-
gress, give the lie to the claim Of the admins
tration, as guardians Of southern institutions
The proceedings Of the Ohio Democratic
Convention, by which it was resolved, that
slapery should be finally eradicated, -(please
refer to Webster's Dictionary for the meaning
Of the word eradicate" which from memory,
we incline to think, means to dig up by the
roots, )--the proceedings of the New York Lee
gislaturc in re-electing w. II. Seward by coali-
lion between the administration party and the
free soil Wings, and now representation of can
didates in New Hampshire, Of the antiNebras-
ka stamp for Congress, all these facts demon
strate the Observation-Disclosures OF the pretensions
Of Forney, Pierce, and Company, to be the es-
pecid friends OF southern institutions.
