The Two Faces.

Not long since we quoted an article from the New
Hampshire Patriot--the home organ of President
Pierce-teribly denunciatory Of a contemporary Pc
cause that contemporary had intinated that Mr. Buch
anan was favorable to the South and the extension Oh
slavery In bitterness we have rarely seen 1t equaleo
and all on account of mere intimaton that the con
stutional rights of the South would be respected IN
case of the elevation of Mr. Buchanan to The FIesl
Dental Office.
At the time, we remarked that the Northern friends
of Mr.. Buchanan doubtless knew more OF MS real
feelings on questions involving Southern interests ana
honor than did his advocates South who were con-
tipualy holding him up model man for the pres-
encv We called the attention of his supporters and
of the public to the fact that there was remarkape
discrepancy in the modes sought OUT to secure his
clection-that in the North his antislavery record
was brought forward to prove that he was an anti
slavery man. while at the South his claims were We
hementIy urged by his partsans because Oh MS de-
cided pro-saycry proclivities. We had hoped 1or Il
response of some sort other but as yet none mas
been vouchsafed. On this tender point, his organs
are as silent as the grave. They peal forth no note
of approval or disapprova.
This is strange and only one conclusion is deduct
BILE from it, which is this Either the North or the
South is to be betrayed in the event Of Buchanans
election for one Or the other of the faces must be
counterfeit face There is no escaping from this
proposition. Mr. Buchanan cannot be good pro-
slavery man in the South, and hold to opposite opin
ions on the same subject in the North. That is I'M
possible And we beg our readers to reflect upon the
fact attentiyey.
But, we have other authority going to show that a
dsreputable game is being widely played Of the same
character as that exposed by the article from the
New Hampshire Patriot The Lancaster (Pa) In.
teigencer is the home organ Of the Hon. James Blu
chanan. It is his trusted, confidential moutipece,
through which, in his retirement, he makes known
his opinions to the public. The 1ntelligencer thus
presents him to the people of the North. People Of
the South read

That is fact. " His public life gives the lie to thu
charge that he ever favored the extension Of slavery
There is no mistake about it.
We leave the subject here, inviting the attention 0
our readers to the fact that the New Hampshr
Patriot, the home organ Of President Pierce-an
the Lancaster Inteligencer, the home organ of Nj
Buchanan-have both pretty clearly demonstrate
that, so far as slavery and the South concerned
