their hands.

BLACK OIIGARCHY, returning 70 1t tue appellation

appropriately ttlougs to itself Ine leaders OF THIS
panty IN the North have proved themse.vcs entirely

cpie of democracy once their boast They have
abandoned the wiucip Of the fathers of tue Repub-
lie 10 cOIfideicG the tr,t attribute Of the new
odr of things established 10y Tie Revolution, that it
would arrest the spread OF Slavery throughout the
continent. Il did lead TO It's immediate extinction
in mouy Of the States and the first act under the Con-
stitutiOn was to cxcGde it from the whole territory
of the Union. Tie Democratic leaders of the new
oIGer, at the bidding OF the SOutherl nuhers, have
broken all tie COnpacts aud compromises designed to
establish Free Republics in the tenitorits from which
Slvavery was excluded In dong this they have put
under foot the representative principle; dched the Will
of their immediate constituents; on receiving III
etruc ons TO repeal their Gcs have refused to obey
and in this lave given the most striking example of an
utter abandon meL Of the cardinal doctrine OF democ-
racy The spread OF liberty, not slavery, IL It's dis
tnCtive principle.
They nave shown that the VIII Of $4,000 slave
owLeIs in the South il more to them than that of
twenty millions of fieemcn III the North. The leaders
of this spurious Democracy are but the satraps OF
Southern masters.
Tie fate which awaits people afflicted with De-
mocracy winch grows up under the government of
sluveOWuers, may be seen in the testimony which we
give in the of the most distinguished men OF that
party, which We find colated in pamphlet by Mr.
Weston.
MI Sarver of Missouri, in paper on domestic

The tree population of the South may be divided
into two ciassts-the STAKEHOLDER and the non-save-
holder. TIN not aSaIe that the relative numbers of
these two classes have ever been asCtdned IN any OF
The States but satshed tsst The non shareholders

heavily upon and depressos the moral energies of the
