| Tut il is certainly the first time during
this campaign in which the causes that
have resulted in the preponderatng in
iuence Of the South in the general go

their whole attention TO the government Of the

Starting from this point Mr.. Banks discloses, il
the notorious history OF this Pierce administra-
ton and lis disorganzing measures and party
eNpedients, foreign and domestic, The abundant
causes resulting in the present general uprising

hat :" the bloody code Of Draco bears 10 COM
parison with that scandalous code Of inhuman
legislation enacted within the last three years ia
he Territory Of Kansas, by men who went over
there from a neighboring State. and who had 10
territorial or individual rights there" and that
the paramount object Of this Fremont movement
is 10 abolish these Infamous. fagitious and IN
paralleled proceedings and their instruments
which the party now in power. by their army 10y
the proclaInations Of their executive. and by his
territorial officers are endeavoring TO thrast
down the threats of All insuted and justly revolt

factory. In the election of Fremont we shall
have man who will exert the influence Of this
government in that portion Of the United States,
50 a. to allow ts people to settle the question Of
slavery there for themselves" II Isl plan which
imply proposes to take up the doctrine repu-
dated by the jacobn democracy-the doctrine Of
popular soyereignty-and to make IL good in
Kansas nothing more. Yet Mr.. Fillmore, and
even Mr.. Buchanan. have been kind enough to
recommend the South to secede from the Union
should Fremont he elected: and this hint Of I'M
blushing treason has now become the watchword
Of all the noisy Southern democratic dre-eaters,
who swecr hy the bludgeon Of Brooks that
slavery shall be forced upon Kansas, or this
Union shall be broken to pieces.
The exposition given by Mr.. Banks OF the
airociiy and pcrilous contingencies of the o.
tend manifesto the sum and substance of which
is 10 make spain stand and deliver the island Of
Cuba-s as strongly put a. the Kansas question.
Upon this point, also BIZ general review Of our
true commercial policy with the West India
islands. the South American States and the great
continent Of Asia and it, dependencies, abounds
IN suggestions Of wise instruction and practical
craftsmanship. In fact, the industrial and com
mcrcial statistics which Mr Banks has 80 well
employed TO illustrate biz general argument may
well challenge the attentive consideration OF our
wisest Statement and Of al other men interested
in the momcntous issues 10 he decided by this
Presidential election.
