DIsUNIoN MEETING AT ALLIANCE.

A
Mr.. Editorials the Slave Democracy are at
tempting with might and main, to fasten the charg,
OF Disunionism upon the Republican party. anC
persistently assert, that the Garrisonian Disunion
lists are an important part of the supporters o
Fremont and Dayton, | think the following vii
set the whole matter right, and show the ute
groundlessness of such assertions:
On Wednesday afternoon and evening last, Par

meeting at Alliance, and the burden of their sont
was unnlitigated denunciation Of Fremont apt
Dayton and the entire Republican party ] Be
cause they are the most substantial friends of thu
Union. 2 Declaring that no good Abolitionist car
consistently vote for them. They expressed {
preference for the success of Buchanan. 3 because
they think it will soon produce what they desire
viz. A Dissolution of the Union, They said that
the Republican Party was the only real Nationa

glorlfed the Union, and expressed q strong desir,
that 1t should be preserved-and finally, that i
was a disgrace for any Abolitionist to vote for Ere

The above facts are well attested A grea'

of Garrison himself. The truth is, lie Republican

ALLIANCE, Sept. %, 1856.
l. The Burden of their song'' was denunciation
of slavery and shareholders. Unfortunately the
Republicans have made it necessary to show that
they are voluntarily among the number of slave
holders, a work which the speakers did, among
other things on this occasion.

stantial friends of the Union, but because thew
to be such.
3, We heard no such expression, and for ourselr
have no such preference. How it may be with the
other speakers we do not know.
4. They said that they claimed to be such, and
they believe that such a claim is disgraceful, while
slavery is national under the constitution, If they
are SO in fact, as this writer claims, it does not
help them out of their disgrace. The whole op-
position to the party from shareholders is on the
supposition that they are not national in the sense
in which they claim to be; but are sectional-that
is-against the national support Of slavery under
the constitution. Any party occupies a disgrace.
