The BLACK Republican and Dens
5 Ocratic Coalition i'm New York
Something for the south
tn Look .sf.

Our readers are aware that, for more than two
weeks, there was contest for the speakership in
the Legislature of New York. There were ntbat
body, as in the House of Representatives at
Washington, three conflicting parties, the Ameri-
eau, the Black Republicans, and the Democrats.
At last the Black Republicans and the Democrats
united and made partition of the spoils between
them. the Democrats taking the speakership and
the Black Republicans the rest of the Offices in
the organization ofthe Assembly All the DEM
ocratic organs and all the Black Republican
organs of the State applaud the coalition and the
Partition. The New York Tribune and the Al
bany Evening Journal are delighted In behalf of
the Black Republicans, and the Albany Argus
aud the Buffalo Republic no less so in behalf OF
the Democrats
Let the whole nation look at this transaction.
If the coalition had been between the Black Re-
publcans and the Know Nothings, and ifthe par
tition of spois had been between them, the entire
country would now be resounding with the loud
est and most furious Locofoco denunciations. But
the alliance was between the Abolitonists and the
Democrats, and every Democratic tongue is mute
except in the expression Of delight. This alliance
perfectly natural 1t is in keeping with the po
litical history of the last few years. 1t is but
re-enactment of what occurred in the Missachu-
sets Legislature when the Abolitonists and the
Democrats coalesced there the Democrats aiding
| to elect Chas. Sumner to the U. S. Senate, and
the Abolitionists helping to bestow upon the Dem
ocrats the other Offices in the gift of tie Lesisll-
! ture. 1t is but a re-enactment of what occurred
| in the Ohio Legislature when the Abotionists
and Democrats coalesced there, the Democrats
assisting to elect S p Chase to the U. s. Senate.
and tie Abolitionists coneeding to the Democrats
all the other Offices that the Legislature to fill
1t was but the re-enactment OF what occurs year.
| ly in Rhode Island where the Abolitionists and
the Democrats always fight sile 81 side for We
tory, and when successful, share The plnnderS to-
gether. -,
Lett be particularly remarked and remember
ed that the Hard and Soft Democrats alike ot The
New York Legislature went into this coalition
and partition business with the Abolitionists.
Yes, even the New York HaTds, who have been
regarded by thousands of Sruthan Democrats as
the very model Democracy of the North, entered
into this foul and miserable coalition. this Infamous
bargain and corruption, with the New York Black
! Republicans. There is no doubt that the New
York Democracy, especially the New York Hard
/ Democracy, is as sound aud vrtuous aud reliable
upon the slavery question Us the Democracy oi
any State of all the North, and therefore this vilc
New York coalition may safely be considered by
the Southern people conclusive evidence that tbs
/ whole n Northern Democracy will make bargains
with Abolitionlsts whenever they can hope there
by to fill their own pockets with pInnler. We
have told the Southern people a thousand time.
that there can be no safe reliance for them upoI
any existing party except the American party. ant
they will sea from mouth to month and from veal
to year conclusive evidence OF the truth Of our as
suranc2s.
