Every day brings up from the popular heart
! fresh evidence of deep seated determination on
the part of the to resist the encroachments
of the slave power, regardless of former political
relations and ahiniles. The great principles
of Freedom which undcr.l the structure of DEM
ocratic government and relate to the national
welfare, are not for moment lost sight of by
the people Of the Free States. They see the inn
! portance of hold, decided, and manly action in
regard to the rights OF the North; and when they
found the leading strings Of power cast upon
their nccks, and felt the influences operating that
would bring them on the side Of human slavery,
nobly broke loose from all parry entanglements
and stood boldly out in their Individuality free
electors. inilo1SJ 70 e'sHh1 ni'3Gpom s3affHI =
This feeling and principle il abroad Men read,
think, and discuss the merits of these great ques
t,ons, quietly but honestly,-and day by day we
find in the public min an increasing inclination
to cast away former political names and associ-
ations. and join in supporting the principles OF
1 Freedom with mrn in whom cons0nance OF sem
timent and unity of purpose exist. Men will not
be harnessed in party relations and drVen, like
! oxen, against Their own opinions, feelings and
interests. fn" So ga'sr,so .I'ssHt"3
The Slave power has so strengthened itse.f by
the forbearance and rcmssnrss Of the North and
West, and the bascly ignohe trcacheiy Of some
of their representatives, that it is no longer a
| question whether the African shall lie enslaved,
but whether the people of the Free States shall
be the humble servants Of the Slavehodng
Oligarchv. 1t is not sectional issue between the
North and the South; but the question pressing
on US is, whether Freedom or Slavery-Dem-
ocracy or Aris,ocracy-shall rule this nation.
This being the issue of the coming contest, can
any person, for moment, fail to see on which
| side the preponderance Of public sympathy will
he enlisted. The most popular and influential
men of the Democratic party have abandoned
their old organization, and are now foremost in
their advocacy of .'Free Speech, Free Press, Free
Soil and Free Men," Among the number who
have recently come over to Freedom, we arep proud
to notice the name of Chns. B. Floud, the old
editor of the Ohio Statesman, the leading Dem
ocratic paper of Ohio. Mr.. Flood has long been
rccogn zed as the souudest and most efficient poit
CT, wrltor in that State, an his home thrusts, of
of which the following is a sample, will. tell
strongly in favor Of Freedom among the Buckeye

| ..WHoM THE GODS WISH TO DESTROY THEY FIRST
MAKE MAD.'-" The course of the people OF Mis-
souri, on the Slavery question for a year or two
past, has been simply INFAMOUS! No other
word clearly expresses the feeling of those
whn without passion or prejuice can view their
conduct. If they wish to make Slavery odious in
the minds of all good citizens--if they wish to
render . popular sovereignty by-word and a
rep-oach, they have chosen the right mode.
First thcv have over run Kansas with their fr;sudu
lent vOters-clect pro- Slavery men to the Terri
torial Legislature against the wishes of legal
voters, and then suppress newspapers by tearing
down presses and sinking them into the river, be-
cause their conductors would not Justify their
course. SUCH CONDUCT CANNOT BE JUS
TIFIED. Those backing up the deluded men
who act thus HAVE SOWN TIE WlilRLWIND

done. Our latest dates are the ga, but We find
nothing startling. Tuesday had been set apart
for the consideration Of the Pacific Bill. A dis
cussion arose on the priority of business, when
Mr.. Clayton said for the remainder Of his public
life he should always vote he pleased, without
being the slave of any party. The Clerk read a
written statement from Gallego, the Representa-

Bishop aided in his election. He endeavored Ia
set forth that he was entitled TO his seat, but
