@CoAnxG OvER.-Mr Oliver, member
Of Congress from Missouri, always hereto
fore whig, has announced that he shall
hereafter act with the democracy.
GHon. Isaac E. Hiester, whig member
of the last Congress from Pennsylvania, has
announced his intention to act with the de-
mocracy IN future
tMr. Caruthers, a member of Congress
from Missouri, heretofore whig, has writ
ten letter to his constituents, in which he
declares that he shall hereafter be found
with and of the democratic party"
What oft? We do not pretend to know
a man by that name now. If he was once
awning, and is now found sympathizing with,
and voting for the extension of slavery-ii
he wishes mart for women and chill
dren in Kansas, the sooner he comes out
and declares his true principles the better.
These arc perilous times, and the freemen
of the North want to know who to depend
upon. Oliver and Caruthers are both @bor-
der rufians," snd Oliver was one Of the e;st-
law gang who invaded Kansas, and with
revolrers and bowie-knives drove the Free
State men from the polls. Such men as
they are never sympathized with the slave
in his bondage. But as an Offset for those
who love to hear the clanking of the bonds
mans chain, we give the following:
at is notorious fact that the principal
eounsellors Of Gen. Jackson-the men of
all Others most admitted to his confidence
and cherished as his fiends-Martin Van
Buren, Francis P. Blair and Churchill G.
Cambrehng, are now in warm sympathy
with the Republican movement"

adelpha Convention of the 18th of June make
ommendaon to them in the choice of to lead in

ion of this Convention that the House Of Representatives

united sympathy IN behalf of their efforts to
absh freedom rather than sidUery upon the free soil Of
that Territory and We pledge all proper and constitution
