ers declare they still adhere. is to secure spir-
itusl freedom, a free Bible and free schools;
the end of all being simply to Aneticinlzs
America. They oppose, and very properly too,
the importation Of foreign paupers and consicis,
but at the same time, in respect to the exclu-
sion Of naturalzed foreigners from Office, they
limit their demands to diplomatic appointments
alone. Our ambassadors and other agents
abroad they hold should be Americans but 10
all other public functions they allow, by mpllca-
ton at least, that naturalized citizens ought 70
be admitted on the same terms with others.
Indeed. even with regard to ambassadors, they
express il very mildly, the phrase being that
{" they should possess no foreign prejudices to
{" bias their Judgment or influence their official
" action"
But what ia Of greatest consequence In this
Address is the ground taken upon the Kansas
question. This implies all that can be desired by
any Northern man as the basis OF political action.
The restoration Of the Missouri Prohibition Is
laid down as q fundamental and vital principle;
so is perpetual resistance to the admission OF
Kansas or Nebraska as Slave States the duty
of the Federal Executive to protect the settlers
in the exercise Of the elective franchise is in
sisted on; and finally, the Address declares that
that its authors and signers cannot act with
any individuals or parties who will not CO.
operate for the correction of the national evils
growing out of the Kansas and Nebraska legls-
lation.
We think this part of the Address will meet
with the most cordial and earnest response
from the entire North. 1t offers platform on
which men Of all the old parties can act to-
Cether for the ore paramount object of rightiug
the gigantic wrongs of that legislation, and re-
covering for Freedom the territory of which that
bill was designed 10 rob her. 1t pledges to
all those who are enlisted in the work
of beating back the encroachments of the negro
Oliparchy and rescuing the Government from
its present state of prostitution, the aid OF
numerous body Of men, enc with them in scnti-
ment on this trying question, who have just
given the most decisive proofs of their sincerity
and fidelity. Therefore do we hail with
satisfaction the declarations of this Ad-
dress. 1t shows that the North is now at
least in earnest, and makes weighty addition
to the long accommodating foundations of that
Northern Republican party which may yet give
peace to the nation and redeem it from the
capkers and shames that have been growing
upon it for many years.

If there be any collection of men in the world
who should regard themselves with particular
contempt and disgust it is the Know Nothings
who have represented the New-York lodges in
the Convention of thst Order at Philadelphia.
We have often been charged with injudicious
and excessive severity in the course of the war
which it has been our duty to wage with these
midnight slave-catchers, and we have been as
sured that after all they were well-meaning
people, and a great deal better than we
had represented. But we dare cay that no
such charge will ever be made again, though
the severity of our animadversions should
be increased ten-fold. Such pitable,
loathsome and foolish doughfaces never ex-
hibited themselves on any stage before.
Not satisfied with paying homage on their
knees to the slave-drivers, they Frustrated
themselves so that their masters might
walk over their bodies in triumph. 1t was
revolving performance, despsej most by those
whom it was specially intended to placate.
Why, these fellows from New-York were actually
more jealous in favor of Slavery than the most
ultra Southern men They were anxious to
cOncede to the South more than she had any
idea of asking 1t is consoling to know that
their baseness must prove nugatory, and that
they have not the slightest chance of getting the
thirty pieces of silver for which they betrayed
the cause Of Liberty!
Our readers may desire to know the names
Of this delegation. They are: James w. Barker,
Horatio Seymour, Jr., T. j. Lyons, l.. T. Parsons,
S. Sammons, S. Squires, and S. V. K. Mallory.
They claim to represent $50, 900 others as abject
as themselves, but we fancy that when they
come here they will find that they have overshot
the mark. The North Star is in the ascendant,
and the race of dOughfaces is destined to speedy
and ignominious destruction. They have indus
triously dug their own graves and made their
own collins, and there remains nothing for them
to do but to sink to that deep sleep which knows
no waking Having no souls, there is no reason
to fear that they can be immortal.

ton to Office, it would have been spared tue
painful duties which are now &C accumulated upon
it's head. II would have established the strictly
local character Of Slavery, combining it to the
States in which it existed, thus emincipiting
the future acquisitions of the Republic from
its supremacy and curse. Yet it is not too
late now to acquit ourselves Of the task we
have left undone. Let us cast aside the
petty wranglings which have divided us; let
us forget the old names Of difference and the
old causes Of animosity; and then let us in
scribe upon our banners for the contest oil 1885,
1.-The freedom of Kansas forever" and the VIC
tory will be achieved. The entire issue for the
future we repeat, turns upon this preliminary
Kansas question which, being once made right,
the legislation of the nation will, on the subject
of Slavery, keep right unto the end.
New-York daily tribune. [volume] (New-York [N.Y.]) 1842-1866, 1855-06-15

While we desire to render full justice to all
those delegates to the Philadelphia Convention
who stood up in defence of Northern rights,
preferring to abandon their associates rather
than their principles, it is only fitting that
special honor should be paid to HENRY WILSON
of Massachusetts, and We make this statement
with the more satisfaction because on one or
two previous occasions We have not been able
altogether to approve his course The antece-
dents of DR. Wilson naturally made him the par
tcular object of hostility to the Slave drivers in
the Convention; indeed that miserable creature,
Vespasian Ellis of Washington, had proposed
beforehand that Mr.. Wilson Che was warmly sus-
tanned by the delegates from New-York) should
be refused seat; and one of the earliest dis
plays after the body was organized was grossly
personal attack upon him by delegate from
Virginia. But the ASSISTANTS had now met an
antagonistwho was not to be cowed or silenced,
and the response they received was of charac-
ter to induce them not to repeat their expert
ment. We have the unanimous testimony of
many Northern members of the Convention to
the signal gallantry and effect of Mr.. Wilson's
bearing, and to the bold, yirile and telling elo-
quence Of his speeches. Indeed we are happy
to know that there was no concession no breath
OF a compromising spirit, no yielding of hairs
breadth even, in all the prolonged aud excited
debate on the part of that phalanx of Northern
men of whom lie was one. Throughout the
whole, their attitude was calm, decided and i'm
movable. They there as men who asked no
fayors, but demanded justice and right with
proud voices and uplfted heads. Therefore, we
count this as being, all things considered, the
most wholesome National Convention held in
cur day. There is some reason to believe now
that there is q North,
