erous, brave, gallant men rise up in the South,

ish from public life all tho public men who are
false to liberty, and to place men in the councils
of the nation who arc forever pledged to the poll
cy of freedom. Our duty is, say, to Danish
public mon who are false to liberty; and say to
our friends who are alarmed about this Republic

Republicans, have a sure way of saving the
Union, namely, to Danish from public life every
Northern man who is false to liberty, every
Southern man who threatens to dissolve the Union.

metropolis of the country, will unite with the
freemen of your great State in elccting the ticket
nominated at Syracuse. trust Preston King

the true democracy of the State Of New York.
trust the merchants of New York will respond to
the declaration made by one of your merchants
five years ago-.-on that day to which your mer-
chants will never refer without some misgivings
---that his goods were for sale but not his prin-
ciples. tremendous applause.) And trust,
gentlemen, that all of US, of all parties, pursuits
and professions will respond to the words of the
American poet of Freedom, Whittier:
let us, then, unite to bury
All our idle fcuds in dust,
And to conflicts .-
Mutual faith and common trust;
Always he who most fOrgveth
In his brother, Is most Just.
