THE RICHMOND ENQUIRER. assuming dit
ferent tone from that which was wont to per
wade its columns. SAYS 'lhe Wing party was not
only national party, but it was also in truth n
great party, combining much talent. learning
energy and genius" But in order to qualify its
compliment. and adapt il TO the taste of its Dem
ocratic readers it SAYS in the next senienee:-
ats leading principles. however, were repng-
nan; 10 our institutions and dis,asteful 10 our
people. and. as u consequence. were finally and
emphaioally repudated.a Assuming the Van
Buren, the period when the leading prin
ciples of the Wing and Democratic parties were
most distinctly marked, it my well be doubted
whether those Of the latter, as exhibited in the
general elections and in the legislation and poll
cy of the government, since. have not been rs
emphat;cally repudiated as those Of the former
Van Boren,with his polioy,and the Heading prn-
ciples" of his party were condemned and rejected
by an overwhelming judgment of the people in
the elections of 1910. In lsIi another Demo
cratic administration came into power, and that,
with the "leadng principles" of tho party sns-
tanning il twas oyerihrown and repudated by The
popular voice of lS4s. In 1852 the Democracy
gained the asoendanoy again. but, shown by
the elections to Congress since, it, with lis lead
ing principles" has already and emphatically
been repudiated. President Pierce has scarcely
more than q corporal's guard TO sustain him
How : il wien we look to measures. The In
dependent (sub) Treasury was one of the "lead-
ing principles "of Mr.. Van Buren, administration.
That was repudated by our people through their
representatives and in lis place was substituted
what Coy. Wise calls the Tyler Fiscallty. differ
Ing almost as widely from the Van Buren, pro
set. US it does from National Bank. Opposi-
ton to the distribution Of tho Public Lands or
their proceeds was another pleading principle"
Of that time. vet millions Of acres of the public
domain have been since divided out by Demo
cratic Congresses. Free trade and no protection
was another OF the Heading principles of the
Democratic party then, but the Democratic Ia
ri III now in existence distinctly recognizes and
applies the principle a protection and the Sc
cretary ofthe Treasury has sought 10 enlarge
its application. If the system of measures now
in operation in the government are 10 be aserb
cd TO Democratic craftsmanship, it's beyond dis
puto that they have been materially modified by
Wing influence, They are not far from com
promise Of the opposing principles and views rs
serted by tho great parties Of 40 and IL. As
much of the democratic platform of hose days
seems to us TO have been repudisted US of the
Wing, and the recent reyerses in the fortunes Of
Democracy indicate that the people are not yet
done repudiating its "leadng principles"

The Slave Question

We commend to the public attention the follow
ing calm statement Of the historical facts relating
to this much agtated subject. II is an Grafton
delivered by the Hon. Theodore Frenghuysen
before the students of Rutgers College. II will
be found 10 present, in lew concise words, the
origin of that clause in the Federal compact
which recognizes slavery as local institution,
and the duties of the several States with respect
to it:
When the constitution fthe United States was
under Amusement, by the Inv of nations slave
escaping to free country became free. The
slaveholdlng States were unwilling to form union
upon the basis of that international law between
independent States. They proposed to the free
States, if you wish 10 unite with us,and thus form
one people in closer bonds than by the general
law of nations, then this law of the fugitive slave
must be modified that we shall have the same
right to reclaim in your State that we now have
in any county in our own State. Our forefathers
agreed to this modifcation,and the thirteen colo
MES unanimously adopted itand thus left slavery
domestic institution in all the States where it
existed.
This is the true political state of the question,
and therefore we cannot disturb it. As n great
moral and social evil, it is open to free oonsderu
ton and debate, are all other matters pertain
ing to moral duty. But politically agreed to
leave it where we found it, and that was with the
slaveholding States. with all its responsibilities
The whole case is with them.
II is gravely momentuous subject, encom
passed by perplexing difficulties that call for
deliberations and candor, and good temper. And
more than this it invokes afresh the cherished
and fraternal feelings that formed the American
constitution, which has so long and so ilustri-
ously shown how much of human wisdom and
forecast, and how much more Of divine benigni-
ty crowned this first great experiment of free
and self governed people. May it be perpetual
May no rash hand mar its glory or dare disturb
its foundations! Should not almost eighty years
of prosperous freedom plead for our Union
Should not the smiles of Gods favor toward us
for all that time hush the murmurs Of discomfort.
and persuade us rather to patience and hope
Let us wait for the healings of time, and kind,
and the sure growth of better feelings, that
will follow the spread and power of the Gospel of
peace. Let us for the sake of human liberty,
and mans last hope. wait aud bear and forbear in
the fear of God and living prayer of His gui-
dance.

SENATOR RusK of Texas has written letter
in opposition to the American party,in which the
following sentences occur:
five desire TO succeed as a party. and secure
the best interests of the country, we must drive
out of our ranks the faction of Freesoilers and
Abolitionists. who, determined to rule or ruin.
have distracted, jeopardized the Union, aud
brought defeat upon our party. We cannot get
along with them. Mr.. Polk kept a number of
them in Office; they showed their gratitude by
keeping up confusion in the ranks and then caus-
ed the defeat of Gen. Cass Gen. Pierce, no
doubt with good intentions, placed many of them
in Office The result has been. disastrous; they
have brought confusion and distrust into the
ranks of the party, and serious injury to the Ad-
ministraion.
This is deectable confession to be made by
one of the leaders of Southern Democracy Mr.
Polk kept in Office "a number of that vile fac
pardised the Union" and Gen. Pierce has placed
ssmany of them in Office" This he did, the Sen.
ator naively surmises, with good intentions"
Oh no doubt! They are apeStiient pack and
jeopardse the Union, and should be spit upon by
all honest rner but the "good Intentions of our
amiabIe President cannot be doubted, when he ele-
Yates them TO posts Of honor and responsibility,
and thus increases an hundred fold their capacity
for mischief We expect to hear next of some
considsrate father letting loose uiad-dog among
his children. With the very best intentions.
