Slavery in the United States snd Of course never
believed in the immaculate conception Of Slave

delicate position in America. The Congress which
had invited him from Asia to America was Dem
ocratic one. II was Senator RO0te OF Mississippi

Mr.. Webster and Gen. Cass always behaved with
the greatest kindness toward him. He therefore

forgotten the contrast between bis triumphant prog

are the Stewards, the Wilson's, the Burlingames,
the Bsnkses. There is no name prominently con-

States which is not now among the leading Repub-

STAND by BURLINGAME. - The Providence
Journal an old Wing paper Of the most conserv-
alive stamp, says:
1.-The Boston Daily Advertiser supports
William Appleton for Congress. While we
cordially agree in all that the Advertiser says
OF Mr. Apletons fitness for the office, we can
not shut our eyes to the fact that the defeat
of Mr.. Burlingame, under the circumstances,
will be regarded as swelling the triumph of
Brooks, and the men who sustain him, and
will be accepted as submission, on the part
Of the district, to the eontemptuous and insult
ing demands of South Carolina. We are sor-
~ that Mr.. appleton and Mr.. Burlingame
are opposed to each other; but we think that
justice and right and proper spirit demand
that Burliugame should be returned"
For precisely the same reasons that the Jour.
sa1argues the election of Burlingame do we con-
tend for the defeatof Col De Witt. His cleo
ton under the circumstance will be triumph
OF Preston S. Brooks over the strongest anti
slavery district in the State. 1t will be an en-
dorsement of his vote, shedding Edmundson, of
Va ona of the chief conspirators in the attempt
to murder Mr.. Senator Sumner from all blame
and censure, and man. with generous an
tislavery sentiment in his heart, can think Of do
ing it.

deIstood the first to be refusal to take ac-
ton, on the alleged ground of want of author
ity, and that no plan would be entertained by
them, and inquired if they could inform us
what was meant by feasible plan, or if
they knew OF any that would be received
They answered that they knew of none, but
did not know but the wisdom of the Repub-
Gcan committee might devise one ; and here
the conference ended.
Fellow citizens, can you escape the conelu-
sion that, whatever may have been the desire
of the honest masses of the American party,
these managers never meant to unite, except
on the terms that they were TO have the selec-
tion of aHthe Republican as well as the Amer
lean candidates?
Farther than this. On the Dist of October
Hon. Henry Chaplin. our candidate for Con-
gress, called on Col. De Witt, at his house in
Oxford, and informed him that in his judg-
ment it was desirable to bring about harmo-
NOUS action among the friends of freedom in
this district, and to that end, proposed that
they should both unite in addressing the fol,
lowing card 10 the people.
I'VE copy the original, as drawn up by Mr..
Chaplin at the time.
" To The Electors Of the Ninth Congressional
District in Massachusetts
We,th undersigned, having been nominal
ed for Congress under circumstances which
divide those who ought to be united, and feel
ing the Importance of having a representa-
tive from this district, who will unite all the
friends of freedom in his support, and being
personal friends and not desiring the office,
hereby announce that we are no longer can
didates for Congress-
1t only remains for us to recommend to the
friends OF freedom in the District, to agree
upon some good and true man to represent
them in the next Congress.
Oct. Dist, 1866
(To be signed by DEWITT and CHAPIN.)
Col. Dewitt told Mr.. Chaplin that he would
either meet him personally IN Worcester that
evening, or notify him of his decision at that
time Since Mr.. Chaplin left Col Dewitt he
has seen or heard nothing from him. Com
ment is unnecessary. And this is the man
who is pressed upon you as a person not de-
string office.
Fellow citizens, you who desired union
upon fair terms, but none other, you who
would, whatever may be the fate Of this Pres
idental contest, keep alive in old Worcester
County, strong and united party of Free
dom, for the future struggles that are be-
fore us-your path of duty is plain, Support
the ticket which your Convention has nomi-
mated, against that of a party whose candi-
dates and whose organs seem to combine in
keeping alive dssentions, and in preferring
office to principle or to harmony.

=. The Springfield Republican of yesterday,
has the following article in reference to the
Peoples nominee for Congress from this dis
uict:
Iii Thayer and the Ninth DistrIct,
Mr.. Chaplin, the Fremont nominee tor Con-
gress in the Worcester district, having declin-
ed the people of that district held a second
convention at Worcester on Monday, and
nominated in his stead by reclamation, ELI
THAYBR Of Worcester. This is good nomi-
nation, and the peopl- of that district now
have the grand issue of the campaign presented
to them fairly and squarely. Though noni-
nally the contest lies between Mr.. Thayer and
Col. Dewitt the American candidate, it is
really, so far as the former is concerned, be-
tween him and the border ruffians. Mr..
Thayer is the originator, and stands at the
head of the great scheme of organized emf
grafton into the territories. He has not only
a national reputation, III connection with this
one of the grandest and noblest schemes of
the age, but his name is known the world
over. The border ruffans know-him, and the
Washington ruffians as well.
The question thus forced upon the district
and it should be gladly and gratefully ac-
cepted-is, aohether the people Of Massachu-
sets endorse, as pure and beReJfcent q scheme as
t1tS age has yLUe1 6Tt2 to. eau they do 9TH
erwse than endorse it 1t is question
that comes directly home to the best convic-
| tons and truest sympathies of the district,
and should oversladow every minor one
Does the district approve of Mr.. Thayer's la
bors, in behalf of Kanzas, or, with Atchison,
Stringfellow, Bully Brooks, president Pierce
and jeff Davis, does it condemn them
Of course, there lies at the basis of this
question the general one, but, while repre-
senung the Fremont and freedom sentiment
OF the district, like his predecessor in nomina-
ton, Mr.. Thayer brings forward new and
important question, intimately associated with
it, one which it is of the highest Importance
to decide correctly. 1t is thrown into the
hands of the district to give voice to the SEN
timent of the state upon a subject which has
excited against her, throughout rufiiandom,
unlimited denunciation,
Of Col. DeWitt's position, we have al
ready expressed our opinion. Having once
absolutely declined re election, he has al
| lowed his name to be used to divide the friends
of Fremont in his district. Whether, under
this new phase of affairs, he win alio,o con-
tinuance CT the use of his name, remains to be
seen. In any event, it should make no diff
ference with any man who wishes to pro-
nounce himself distinctly upon the issues pre-
scented to him. Mr.; Thayer WILL we under.
stand, stump the district until election. Sue
cess attend him and his cause"
Worcester daily spy. [volume] (Worcester [Mass.]) 1850-1888, 1856-10-29

1t is very singular that Mr.. Thayer's partic-
ular friends, Col. Foster, S. V. Stone, neigh
Dor Drew and company, didn't discovered Mr..
Thayer's merits or strength until they found
themselves without candidate and under
the necessity of procuring somebody to be
mortgaged for their benefit. They could not
be brought to go for Mr.. Thayer a fortnight
ago, but now they feel differently. Trans
cript.
The above does not need any answer, but as
we like to do things openly and above board, we
will say that no man supposed until the day the
convention met, that Mr.. Thayer could be Undue.
ed under any circumstances to relinquish his ex-
tensive business operations and the care of his
Academic Institute for a seat in Congress. As
soon we learned that Mr.. Thayer's services
could be obtained, that he was willing at the urg
ent solicitation Of many friends, to make the sac.
rhce of his time and talents to the cause, we
printed ballots for him and circulated them in the
convention against Mr., Chaplin who has always
been and nov is, one Of our nearest and dearest
friends Not that we loved Mr. Chaplin less, but
because we thought the peculiar qualifications of
Mr. Thayer made him prominently the man for
the present crisis. SO much for that souib
