A slapder upon Democrats.

The bunker democratic Organ here, in
speaking Of the anti-slavery convention
which will assemble IN Columbus ucxt Fri
day, and at which ali true friends Of free
dom and opponents of the present pro-
slavery administrator, will meet and act
together, for the maintainanceo of Liberty,
says:
"We shall watch patiently fvv the un-
natural wedding which is to op:oiuco these
waring children. In the moantimo, we
can tell those interested one thing, and
that is this: The moment that union
takes place, that moment is sAu. the breach
which has carried over The recruits from
the Democratic ranks WHO have luilt up
and given character to the free soil party.
Not only SO, but those who have gone over
will return"
What say you to that, old fellow demo-
Gratis, who for the love Of liberty ard true
democratic principles were forced to op-
pose the old hunkerdom when sold to the
slave owners, and their enactment Of such
outrages as the Fugitive Slave Law, and
the Kansas scheme for extending slavery.
In thus doing did you not act upon true
democratic principles, Or was it a mere
furry and pastime. The bunker, pro-sla-
very and Romish organ here, intimatos
very strongly in the above verbatim cx-
tract, that you do not act upon principle,
but will return to tho slavery extension
party after the 18th inst. Democrats who
oppose the Kansas swlndle, arc you willing
to bo thus eajoled and slandercd?

Distressing.

Our ncighbOr Of the Union seems to
have been in very unhappy state of mind
ever since the ides Of October last, and it
would really appear from some recent iuli-
cations that his mental suferings are rath-
er on the increase. What is to be done ?
What can be done to relieve our ueigh5or
from his present miserable apprehensions?
We have thought considerable upon this
subject, but after all our reading, and all
of our reflection we frankly confess that
we are not prepared to sujcst feasible
remedy for his disease and suffering.
If it were lawful and right to reconsider
the vote of last fall which placed him near
ly five thousand in the minority in a dis.
trict which had been from timo out o.
mind largely Democratic, it might prov,
a temporary reliof,-but then there woult
be another difficulty to overcome. Th'
presumption is strong in tho minds o
many of his friendS-and VIC claim to b.
in that number, for VIC have no unkin
feelings towards the brother personally
that the majority against him would b
greatly increased. We know that he cal
! nestly desired to be sent back to Washing
ton, and it was perfectly natural that h
should so desire, but the people were d,
. termincd that he should not 20, and h
friends had to submit. They though
they could find man--in the person
John A. Bingham who would ropresel
thoir interests with moro credit to u
District, in Washington City, and thcr
fore concluded to leave Andy at home.
= Thus we behold in this event tho IL
:, certainty of human prospects, spd in 4
state of cur friends mind tho instability
human happiness. a5 7Iqo a a.. rdv
y Take it calmly, friend Andy, and dol
= suffer your mind to become too much {
u cited in rctracing the past,--there may
,e y. a better day coming for you, when 60
IL L munity will be prepared to appreciate re
lis merit, and high order of literary tale
and statcmaEship qualifications.
