The noticeable features in this singula
production are
lst.-That the Philadelphia platform wa
diluted to gull the people, but made stron2
enough by implications and inuendoes To-
the rankest Abolitionist
2I.--That it is not considered by the high
est Abolition authority, as fixing any limit t,
Abolition agitation.
3d.-That the Black Republican promis,
to restore the Missouri Compromise wa.
sheer hypocrisy. intended to bm,L,.g" The
people
4th.-That the Black Republican party
seceies jo,wari, and takes more radical posi-
4 ton.
5th.-That honest, honest Abolitionsm
has rebuked tender footed Black Republican
and Know Nothing demagognes, and political
tricksters.
6ih.-An acknowledgment OF the compli-
city of Black Republicanism and Know Moth
ingism.
7Ih.--That FRnIoNT is not the real choice
of Abolitionism, though he is far preferable
to Judge MCLEAN, who gave notice that he
would administer the government according
to the Constitution.
8th.-That conservative Whiggery was
/ considered dangerous to the cause of radical
Abolitionism in the Philadelphia Conven-
ton, and was kept in the back Ground cor
that reason.
Sth.--A piou. hope that the Whig party
is now finally dead, and Know NOTTINGHAM
completely Swallowed up coupled with a
feryent prayer that the Democracy may soon
follow, and leave Abolitonism masters of the
! field to annul Constitution and dsm em Der
a ooniederacy that they hate
