Oi our party, but let me warn these D0asters

attack, they do not find spirit before them

i = X is. my fellow-citizens. great mistake,
IN suppose tina, the present administration is
anti-abultion. II is anti American, and moth
ing else. And il would. by It's ruthless
hand. long belnre this. have crushed out the
last remains Of il, il il had not been for the
indomitable spirit Of the American people.
that never vet stonped its neck to the heel oil
a tyrant, aud never will. Just think Of il;
the whole power of this administration. in.
stead Of being devoted to the stirring events
IN Kansas, and the great interests of the
country, its highest aim has been to find at
the anvil, or the work bench, some industri-
nus, independent, but respectful American
spirit thinking for himself; and its greatest
achievement has been TO drive such spirit
from his place. and ha, ha, ha /! with for
eign mental that supplants him:

In the next place. say. that the admins.

1t has no strength. Such has been its course
Of policy that il has lost power. Far this
have the high authority Of Mr.. cIingman's
letter. Speaking Of the party. he says:
"Wbile thus acting however, during the late strug-
gle many Of its former friends e US that il is con-
coded that It would have been beaten in almost every
State in the Union, but for the assistance OF the patr
ot,c Wings who have marched 10 its support"
Observe. then, that If left to It's own
strength, il would have lost nearly every
State in the Union, North aud Soutl,. And
even with all the strength it could get from
the Wings, il has been reduced lrnm q ma
jority Of two. thrJt which il had in the last
congress, TO minority Of one third in this
Congress. Observe further, that Mr.. Cling
man says il lost its strength BY standing up
to the rights Ut the South. Now. If that be
81, concede that II is powerful reason why
the South shouid stand by il To man. But
y 4 was on account Of its standing up to the
rights Of the South. how happened It that lis
friends in the SO,ih forsnok its Remember.
MIR. 4. says. but for the Wings il would have
been defeated in nearly every State IN the
Cnlon--in the South as well as the North.
Surely he would not utter such SANDER
against Soulhern Democrats as that they for.
sock the administration for standing up To
the rights Of the South! But Mr.. c. saws il
will gain its strength back again. Now, If it
lost us strength BY standing up TO the rights
oil the South, can conceive how il can re-
gam IT'S strenth in The South. But if It's
Northern friends left il for standing up 10
The rights Of the South. can il win back these
friends without deserving the rights Of the
Souths
but the mistake lies in surprising that il
lost Us influence by standing up to the rights
OF The South. itlust its influence everywhere,
aud at the same time. BY driving the conser.
