Francis +. Blair has written a long letter to
the New York Republicans, tracing the con-
nexion between the spurious Democracy of
the present day with the Calhoun Nullifiers.
lie shows that its most active leaders have
been the bollest advocates of doctrines tend
ing directly to the breaking up of the Union.
lie says. "Butlcr of South Carolina and
Atchison, of Missouri, are the real authors
Of the Kansas Act'-'the masters of the
Administration and may stand for the repre-
sentatiyes at large OF the Spurious Democra-
cy." Of Hunter, Mason and Wise, of yir-
glnia; Tombs, Stevens and Dawson, of Geor-
gia, lulee, of Florida; Soule, of Louisiana,
Davis, of Mississippi, Jones, of Tennessee,
and a few other kindred spirits OF multiplying
sympathies, he says:
These are the heads tina, manage tho political
concerns of the Shareholders party, and ara manaS-
ing them fatally for their ultimate interests. They
have put 'fh, Democracy pr9pcr," (to use General
Jackson's expression, to distinguish those whom he
relied on from The Calhoun pretcnders to the name,)
under foot. They hold the Administration under
the thumb, and every other Presidential aspirant at
the North looking to the Cincinnati Convention, and
the fifty thousand office holders who seek to retain
their stations and expect their preservation from
the election Of some one Of these aspirants, composo
the rank and file of their northern nercenaries, whom
Mr.. CUSHING may be said to represent, having first
figured in Mr.. TrlER's corporal'S guard.
The concluding paragraphs of his letter are
especially forcible MS well as true.
The Kansas act is now the test of Democracy,
This is the declaration Of the President-of his ofi-
cial organ-of his oficcholdcrs, and Of the slave
holders. The Jefferson and Jackson Democracy is
utterly secuted. And how il this test If Democracy
represented in Congress. In the House, from the
North, The Union" counts about seventeen and
Of these there /. scarcely one that did not reach his
seat upon other issues than the Kansas question. In
the Senate, from the North, there is not a Senator
who can stand by the test without VIGOROUSLY mis-
representing his sta e. From the south there are
no longer Wings or Democrats-all parties are
swallowed up in notification Of party principles for
the purpose Of extending Slavery over new regions,
and without the justification of the want Of room in
the Slave States. The fifteen slave States, with
little more than one-third Of the inhabitants Of the
Free States, have an area of s5l sos square miles
the Free States only 6l2 597 square miles-the
Slave States having also the advantage Of a better
soil and mildcr climate.
What a revolution in the course Of the hrst half
century has Slavery wrought In the principles that
gave birth TO our Republic Freedom wssths basis
Of that Republic. Il is now insisted that the Con
