A TRUE VIEW or BLACK REPUBLICAN,

Negro Fred. Dougass's paper OF August Is takes
down the names OF Gertf Saith and Mcfarland, the
rad.ea abolition candidates for the Presidency and
vice Presidency, puts up The names OF Fremont and
ayton, aud gives the following prog OF blac
republican principle and designs:
SIN supporting Fremont aud Dayton, We are in no
wise required to abandon single anti-siavery truth
principle which have hitherto cherished and
pubIicy advocated. Hereafter, as hitherto, shall
contend for every principle and maintain every doc
tr1ne laid down the platform of the radical aboli-
tlonists The unconstitutonality Of slavery, the H.
legality of slavery the right OF Federal government
TO abolish slavery in every part OF this republic,
whether in States or Territories, will be as firmly
held and as steTnly insisted upon hitherto. And
we are more reconciled 10 accepting Fremont and
Dayton by the fact that they surrounded by
party Of progressive men. We take then, therefore,
not merely for what they are, but for what have
coed reason TO believe they viii become when ;hey
have lived for lime ~ the element OF auti-slavery
dsuHon. la supporting them neither dishonor
principles lessen means OF securing their
adoption and active application. We can reach the
ears and hearts OF as great number within the ranks
OF the republican rarity we could possibly do by
remaining outside those ranks. We know OF no law
applicable To he progress and promulgaton of radi-
cal abolition prime pies which would less favora-
bly, towards principles inside the party than out
side OF it.
ssThe right and duty of the federal government TO
abolish slavery everywhere in the United States is
entirely true and deeply import Iantand yet, it must
be confessed that this doctrine been made appre-
ciabe but to few minds, the dwellers in the noun
tain peaks of the moral world, who catch The first
beams OF morning long before the slurnberers in the
valleys awake from their dreams. This new doe
trine, we think, may very properly be left 10 take
its turn in the arena of discussion. Time and argu-
nent will do more for its progress, and ats final
adoption by the people, than be done for it in
the present crisis by the votes OF the isolated radi
cal abotionists.

weeks lost in frutless struggle to choose a
