Polisscsl Nssger Drivers and Nsgger Wor-
shappers-The Peoples Pelhcy New
Movement IsJispenssnt OF Esrner.
Two imporssnt political National Conven-
tons, q they are Gated, are close ut hand
first the Cincinnati Convention of the degene-
rate democracy ON The I'd ofyune, and second,
the Philadell mia Convention of the Seward
anti slavery coalition on the 18th of the same
month. Tn former will be under the control
of the political niger divers of the South,
and the latter will be but fusion gathering
OF the niger worshippere of the North. Mig
geriezc will be the exclusive element OF both
these essenblsges Of ranscrupuious Gema-
gosues and sugglers drifting, at the one to
the ultimsslm of Southern secession, and OF
the other &c the overthrow of Southern slavery
OF q Revolutionary disruption Of the Urion.
Between these ruineus extremes there is as
jet 10 established halfway house of rest. 1t
lie part Of the once great and practical ma
ticnst democratic PARTY that has degenersted
into camp of niger drivers and juggling
spoilsnen it is the remains in the North Of
the once glorious cid whig party, with no in
considerable portion Of the /" renegade demo-
! cracy" that constitute the hostile aud motley
array Of Seward's grand army Of niger wo-
shippers There will be at Cincinnati none of
those master miEds and practical Issues of q
;s,,Yio al,r mic -l~aa
such councils Of the party in the dsys Of Jack
SOP, hut We shall have there plenty of thin
nle-riggers and trading demagogces. There
will be q. Philadelphia nothing visible Of the
advocates or the principles Of the substsI-
sial administrative policy of Henry Clay;
but, in lieu thereof, we shall have sed-
tious general conference OF niger Torshippng
disunionists, intent only upon lighting and
tanning the com5ustibles Of sectional Jealousy
and hate into consuming fire. But both at
Cincinnati and at Philadelphia, 'ciggerism-
this disgusting, demoralzing and destructive
element of mig gerism-will rule the roast.
During the last six months The Southern
party press, Southern orators and Southern /
conventions have made the extremest dem ands I
of their masters, the political niger drivers,
their ultimatEm for Cincinnati at the hazard
Of secession and an Independent Southern con-
fedsracy. Following these threats, the rivalry
between democratic aspirants for the success
sion In the White House, the Cabinet, Con-
gress and elsewhere, North and South, has
carried them into the most degrading humilia-
tions--scarcely stopping short of the revival
Of the African slave trade, rs if we had not
q sufficient home supply of niggers fer all the
purposes Of cotton, rice, sugar, tobacco and
manifest destiny" for hundred years to come.
On the other hand the niger worshippers, wi
their hue and cry of freedom for Kansas"
"border rufisnism,' "sharp's rifes," "the
slave pow err" the slave oligarchy," ~the hor-
rors Of the despotisn of the slaveocracy." and
1.-The sleTebreeders" end "bloodhounds,n have
broken down all the barriers of common sense
and reason, while fansticism, led on by artful
and designing knaves, kotly disputes the !f-ee
North" against the nigger driving democracy.
In those scenes Of lawlessness and outrage
which have signalized Mr.. Pierce's malad-
ministration Of the affairs Of Kansas; in
those acts Of border rUfianismn which
have recently illustrated the demoral:z-
ing elements Of this piebald, niger driv-
ing and niger worshipping Congress in
that contagious spirit of official corruption aud
partisan vulgarisy and rowdyism which, dur
ing the year past. has been developing itself
here, there and everywhere throughout the
Union, in scenes Of fraud, perjury, violence
and blood, We have but the beginning of the
end of this moDstrous sectional conflict upon
niggerism. Let it go on without the interven-
ton OF a wholesome restraint from the reac-
tion of the sensible body of the people, and it
will rapidly carry us downward headlong into
that condition Of universal ruffanism and an
arcby, from which there will be no escape but
in tn strong hand Of some selfappointed mill
tary master. Thus, amidst the anarchy excit-
ed between Roundheads and Cavaliers, came
Cromwell to the rescue of England; thus, from
the horrors Of the French Reign of Terror of
the fret republic, arose that military master,
the first Napoleon, who, after giving his fero-
cious republican subjects surfeit of throat
cutting, left them in the hands of their foreign
enemies; thus, from the loose, unprinciplsd,
imbecile reds" and socialists of the second
French republic, arose their present sovereign
master, Napoleon the Third; and thus some
military godsend may start up or several of
them and cut short the game of niger
drivers and niger worshppers With US, sh lid
the conservative people Of the Union rail to
interpose in season.
But why should the honest, uncorrupted
masses OF the people delay the organization of
an independent movement for the constitution
ard the Union against both niger drivers
and niger worshippers? Is not the dan
ger sufficiently apparent? When reckless de-
msgogues and scbemiDg hucksters rule in
our high places; when respectable men shrink
from the communications of public office; when
