The Republican Sentiment.
The following well-timed article we copy
from the Dubuque Tribune. We commend it
to the attention of all modern Democrats, and
particularly to the bogus Democracy of Min
nesota:
The Republican sentiment, like a consul
ming fire, has swept everything before it in Ohio,
and now steadily, but with certainty, is accom-
plishing its work in New York. Upon the
single issue-Shall the power Of the general
government be exerted for the extension and per-
petration of the evils of slavery in Territories
the entire North, and no inconsderable por-
ton Of the honest thinking men cf the South,
would answer by an unqualified negative.
1t is against this universal sentiment, this
instinct of liberty in the breasts of the people,
the present Democratic party is laboring. Re-
ligious bigotry, the pride Of birth, sectional in
terests, and multitude of other issues have
been logged in by designing politicians, to dis
tract public attention from the real question !;
but these subterfuges no longer avail. The
lambs coat is being stripped from false preten-
pers, and the wolish propensities of sham,
spurious Democracy, is standing out in hideous
deformity before the people
The Democratic party of to-day, false and
rccrcant TO the ancient purity of its faith, when
Jefferson and Madison controlled its destinies,
and raised their warning voices against the
evils of slavery, and the dangers TO be appre-
hendcd from its extension, is hcaping ignominy
upon the memory of these illustrous men, by
carrying on a war against free institutions in
their name.
The same hand which penned the Declara-
ton OF Independence. penned these memora-
bic words, to be applied to the Territories Of
the United States" There shall be neither
SLAVERY nor Involuntary serUaude an said terri
tory, otherwise than an punishment for crime,
whcrecf The party shall haze been duly comic
fed." The sentimen. was endorsed by Madi-
son and other worthless and patriots of his day.
1t was 10y them inscribed upon the banner of
the Democracy, in the early days of this Re-
public but, like many other things good and
great, ii has been stricken from that banner by
the ruthless hand of modern Democracy
The people, they say, must govern them
selves; but do they understand the principles
of self-government and the spirit of Republi-
canism better than the statesmen of '76, and
the men who pledged I" their lives, their for
tunes and their sacred honors," to maintain
free institutions 2 Those WHO seek, by mob
law, corruption, and an abuse of the ballot-box,
TO frame laws for Kansas and Nebraska, must
first strike the names Of Madison and Jeffer-
son from the hearts of the people, and expunge
from the annals of time the Declaration Of In
dependence, before they can hope to succeed
further in so base an imposition.

of release from this life, in view of the extra

he then entered into the plan of conducting the
campaign, and advised that the Proclamation
from the people calling the election be signed by
every voter. Let the legal requirements of an
election be strictly observed. Our position is one
of asking only that the law be carried out. When
Col Ethan Allen, was asked at Ticonderosa. by
whose authority he demanded the fort, he replied
In thk name of the great jehovah and the Con-
tinental Congress-" l expect of you, that you so
prepare me, that to similar question NAV
boldly answer s. The great Jehovah and the Sow
ereign Squatters of Kansas" He spoke long
and eloquently upon the Importance that no RASH
ness should endanger the Union which we all love
and ceave to. He did not consider the correct
public sentiment of the South as endorsing the
violent wrongs which had been perpetrated by
Missourians in our Territory, and that being so,
he waited to hear their rebuke. Should it not
come, and all hope of moral influence to correct
these evils be cut of, and the tribunals of our
country fail Us, while our wrongs still continue,
what then? Will they have grown easier to bear
by long custom ? God forbid that any lapse of
time should accustom freemen to the duties of
slaves, and when such fatal danger as that me-
naced, then is the time to
Strike for our affairs and our fires,

had been constantly interruptcd nv shouts and
