The Wings take no interest in the present contest
Why? Because they have been told hundreds Of times
that Mr. Fillmore will be withdrawals a Presidential
candidate before the ides Of November. As they do
not want to vote for the old prosecutor the glorious
Henry Clay they prefer to keep quiet, waiting for
better times to wage against their political enc
mics. Where are the great speakers Of the American
party whose voices were heard last year in every nook
and corner of the State? Where are they Where is

heard him was at Pointe Hache about year ago.

NATIONAL ERA: WASHINGTON D. C, NOVEMBER 3D. 1856

But again We must not overlook the deli
cate duty of the appointment of new Cabinet.
How is Mr.. Buchanan to satisfy the country,
or to secure a reasonable cohesion of the con-
servative masses of the party, if he shall fail to
secure homogeneous Cabinet of Union and
conservative men? The fatal mistake of poor
Pierce was his mosaic Cabinet of factionists
disunionists, and secessionists. To avoid split
ting to pieces upon the same breakers Mr..
Buchanan must repudiate from his Cabinet,
and all other offices of honor, confidence, or
emolument, all such preachers of treason and
disunion as Jefferson Davis, Governor Wise,
Toombs, Slidell, Benjamin, Brooks, Keitt, John
son of Georgia, Mason and Hunter of Virginia,
Atchisou, Stringfellow, and Forney. They
must be repudiated and sent about their bust
ness for all that class of men who counsel
revolution and disunion against the will of the
American people, should it go against them,
are unworthy the countenance or confidence of
the President of the United States, whose first
official pledge is to support the Constitution.
The election, by the divisions of the opposi-
ton forces and series of accidents, has resulted
in favor of Buchanan. Now the work among
the various managers, cliques, and coteries of
the Democracy, North and South, for the first
seats at the table, begins. Mr.. Buchanan will
soon discover what Mr.. Jefferson Davis and
his controlling secession faction expect and
demand he will perceive, on the returns of the
election, however, that some steps of concilia-
ton in behalf of the North are indispensable
to the continued existence of the Democratic
party. Inevitably he must dissppoint the North
or the South and for the present, with the
Southern programme of Jefferson Davis before
him, we leave him to his reflections upon this
interesting question.

A FREE GOSPEL NEEDED IN KANSAS.

At the late Convention in Philadelphia of the
delegates, clerical and lay, of the Protestant
Episcopal Church of the United States, the
House of Deputies negatived resolution of the
House of Bishops for the appointment of a
Missionary Bishop for Nebraska and Kansas.
This was certainly very singular proceeding
for body protesting to believe in the precept,
Preach the Gospel to every creature" and
not little Indignation has been excited in
consequence among the various churches in
the country. But the extracts which we have
published from little work by an Episcopal
minister in Kansas may explain the reason.
They will show, we think, that there are some
creatures, and among them our Border Ruffian
brethren, to whom the Gospel cannot safely be
preached. This clergyman, the Rev. John
Mcnamara, now of Geneva, Wisconsin, was
appointed, by the Domestic Board of Missions
of the Episcopal Church, Missionary for
Kansas Territory in 1854. Prior to that, he
of this city, and he went to his labors imbued
with all that conservative spirit of abstinence
from political discussion which characterizes
the clergy of his church. He soon found, how
ever, that silence upon the great subject of in
PRODUCING Slavery would not protect him from
suspicion. The Border Ruffian churchmen
among whom he labored insisted upon know
ing his sentiments in reference to the subject
and on his honest avowal of opposition to their
policy, he was subjected to persecution which
rendered necessary his departure from the Ter
ritory. With them, the declaration, 81 believe
in the extension of Slavery" was necessary
portion Of the creed. This circumstance is
humorously illustrated in our clergyman's rival
ry with a minister OF the Methodist denomina-
ton at Kickapoo. 1t appears that the Metho-
dist was rather jealous of the establishment of
an Episcopal church in that town in advance
of his own. This would never do, and he de-
termined to supersede his Anti Slavery co-work-
or in the Gospel Ministry. In order, therefore,
to secure possession of the only house of wor-
ship in the place, he appealed at once to the
most sensitive prejudices of the inhabitants
about him. He went round" says the nara
tor, "to inquire where he could purchase "a
Niger So the question between the preach
ers to gain the affections of the people, and to
have the privilege of occupying the Lighthouse
on Sunday, was niger or no niger was
no Niger and became no preach"
Ola like character was the experience of the
Rev. Frederick Starr, of the Presbyterian de-
whose testimony has been recently
published. We can thus see why the Episco-
pal Convention appoints no successor to their
banished Missionary. The people of the border,
we fear, must wait for the election of Fremont,
before they can enjoy the blessings of free

From The Charleston Mercury.
THE PROPOSED SOUTHERN CONFEDERACY-
THE PRESIDENT AN EXCRESCENCE

The conclusion we draw is, that, with refer.
ence to permanent structure of government,
the Presidency is an unnatural excrescence
upon our system of Confederscy of States.
From the close of the Administration of Wash
ington to the present time, it has been the
centre and source of bitter controversy among
the entire people of the country. 1t has been
source of hateful union among the States,
who, without this bond, might possibly have
lived in peace. They have many great points
of union, many grand sources of sympathy.
But the Presidency has never failed to stir up
every element of discord, to bring into fierce
contest all the armies of the spoilers, and to
make itself representative of all the plumber
ing and contentious principles that had open
or covert existence in the Confederacy.
Believing, therefore, that this mighty element
of discord, of corruption, and of Capitalization,
might be perfectly well dispensed with, as far
as the Just and efficient operations of the Gov
eminent are concerned, we would propose that,
in Southern Confederation, the President
should be dispensed with. 1t is not necessary
for any legitimate action of a Confederate Gov
eminent. 1t is absurd to suppose that it is
necessary to the sanction of the laws of such
a Government, and equally absurd to suppose
it necessary for the conduct of its relations
with foreign Powers. All these matters are
easily arranged, and the change would not pro-
duce even passing shock in the progress of
events. We might gain great good, without
mourning the least reasonable chance of
small evil.
