1t seems to me impossible, that those en-
gagged in this sectional agitation can have
contemplated the awful consequences OF
success. If it breaks asunder the bands OF
our Union, and spreads anarchy and civil
war through the land, what is it less than
moral treason! Law and common sense
hold man responsible for the consequent
ces of his acts, and must not those whose
acts tend TO tie destruction of the govern
ment, be equally held responsible! zap

this Union is dissolved, it will not be diVld-
ed into two republics or two monarchies,
but broken into fragments, each at war
with the other.

FILLMORE IN FAVOR OF TIE MIS-
souri, RESTRICTION

Fillmore's position in regard to the Kan
SASH Nebraska bill, is sscertaincd at last
not by the declarations of his friends, but
by his own public, positive and explicit
avowals. Below, We publish a speech
which he delivered in Albany, few days
ago. The measure" which he reprobates
as the source of the present sectional trou-
bles, and as the offspring of selfish and
ambitious objects, is indisputably the re-
peal of thc Missouri restriction.
So pleased was the Editor of the 'Whigo
with the denunciations of Mr.. F. against
this Southern measure, the Kansos-N cbras-
ka bill, that he regarded Mr.. F.'s speech
as a second Declaration of Independence
On the Fourth, he issued the speech in an
Extra, and sent il out to his readers. We
shall aid him all in our power i'll giving it
circulation. 1t shows cOnclusively that
Mr.. +. is with the AbolitioniSts of the
North, in opposition to the Kansas bill, and
with them in their insane opposition TO the
Administration on account of that measure
of justice to the South. The speech also
shows that Mr.. +. is modest man. He
claims that Ike is entitled to a settlement of
the slavery excitement, by reason of the
Compromise bills, and in this he falsifies
facts, for it is notorious that those bills did
not allay, but on the contrary increased the
excitement by the opposition of Mr.. F.'s
Northern friends to the fugitive slave BILL
His modeStyis also shown by his condemna-
ton of the Administration for the controve--
sy with England and the state of affairs in
Kansas. OF course, he as President, would
have prevented these diffcultics-and he is
the man, according to his own showing, to
quiet and settle them. How! BY yield
ing to England and to the Abolitionists all
they desire, we presume, for he aeigns not
to tell us how else they could have been
avoided or could be settled. We have
marked, in italics, certain portions of his
speech, TO which we allude.
The speech shows, too, that Mr.. f. is
jealous of his rival, Fremont, for the vote
of the AbolitioniSts of the North: and in
making war upon Fremont and his party,
and attempting to show his own superiority
of claims for the next Presidency, he at
the same time shows the claims of Buchan-
anan and observation-disclosures being from
the North. and the other from the South
But, the truth is, Fremont is a Southern
man-although Benedict Arnold of the
Southland therefore Mr.. Fillmore's argu-
nent falls to the ground, in reference to
the improperly of selecting both candidates
