Clay on Sectionalisrn

Henry Clay il a speech delivered in the e
S. Senate, FEBRUARY I, 1889, used the follow
ing language, which is so applicable to the
present times that VIC cannot forbear publish
ing it, as warning to those who are recl-
lessly assisting the Abolitionists in their mad
schemes to disseyer the Union:
1.-The Abohtionists, let me suppose, succeed
in their present aim of uniting the inhabitants
OF the free States as one man against the inhati
tants of the slave States. Union on one side
will beget union on the other, and this process
ofreciprocal consolidation Will be attended with
all the violent prejudice, embittered passions.
and implacaple animosities which ever degra-
ded or defornied human nature One
section will stand in hostile and menacing ar
ray against the other. The collision of op-
inion will be quickly followed by the clash
of arms. L will not attempt to describe scenes
which now happily lie concealed from onr view.
Aboitionists themselves would shrink back
in dismay and horror at the contemplation of
desolated fields, confagrated cities, murdered
inhe bitants, and the overflow of the farest
fabric of human government that ever rose to
animate the hopes of civilized man.
1t is unnecessary to comment on this
The picture is perfect-and We trust that
it will have the effect of causing some to pause
who are now engaged in upholding the ban
ner of Black Republicanism and disunionl

tbs DEMOCRATIC PLATroRM.-We published
Yesterday an abstract Of the Platform adopted
by the Democratic National Convention at Gin
oinnati. Until final action has been taken on
the whole of it.0 il is before fully and official
" it would be premature 10 discuss it. For the
present we viii only remark that while II is some
improvement on former platformsit fails TO come
up to that high Southern standard, which a party
50 lavish of promise, and indifferent about
souarinc its performance with its pledges, as the
Democratic, might have been expected, in the
present exigency. TO offer. True IL says that
the people of territory in formnga state con-
stituion may decide the question OF slavery for
themselves but it carefully onits TO say that they
may do it only then. Nor is this the worst IL
studiously avoids. as we predicted IL would do,
all allusion Co the most vital and important quos
ton whether the people Of the South shall be
permitted to take their slaves into any territory
Of the union. and there hold and them under
the protection Of the Federal Government, until
the Territory shall be made State: whether, in
other words the constitution Of the United States
carries slavery with il wherever II extends. until
the people. acting in a regular and lawful way,
determine to dispense with it-so that II Canadn
were annexed 10 the United States the citizen of
Virginia would 60 iastaah have the came right TO
90 there with his slaves, as property. that tho
citizen Of Connecticut would have 10 go there
with his wooden nu,megs.. This is the great
practical issue of the day, aud we lament to see
that a party so powerful as the Democratic,
claiming to be iufallible and uniiupeachabo on
the slavery question, have deliberately aud com
pietely shirkedit But not intending discus
sion of the merits and dement's flor it has BOTH
