New-York daily tribune. [volume] (New-York [N.Y.]) 1842-1866, 1856-11-20

A perinaciOus effort Is making In certain quar-
tiers to convince the people of the North that Dir.
Buchanan means TO turn round and spit upon the
party and the platform by which he was elected,
and adopt the principles and policy OF the hepubl-
cars To hear these new expOsitOrs OF his views,
we should suppose that he had determined to ad-
minister the government precisely as Col. Fremont
would have done had he been elected. According
TO them, Mr.. Buchanan will kick Atchison and
Stripgf low, Sldell, Sonl6 and George Sanders all
out 81 doors together and follow in all respects the
counsels ard the wishes of their late opponents,
who have so zealously and uncOmpromising'y re-
sisted his election. He will make Kansas Free
State and crush the fillibusters forever. de VIII
repudate The whole scheme of Slavery-extenslon,
and smother it rrevOcaby both at home and abroad.
He will turn his back upon the doctrines and the
line of conduct laid down at Cincinnati, and, in
defiance of his antecedents and his pledges, adopt
those laid down at Philadelphia. In forming his
Cabinet he will reject the real leaders OF his own
party and select men who, if not openly Republi-
cans are so at heart, and who will take Office on
the sole condition that the Administration shall be
Republican Such is substantially the programme
attributed TO Mr. Buchanan by no less authorities
than The Journal of Commerce and The Boston
Post while our neighbor of The Herald kindly lends
its influence to back up the President elect in these
vrtuous intentions, and our other Deghbor of The
Times mildly and inofensively pats bis darling old
cheeks to the same effect
Now. for our part, we are ready to say that If
Mr.. Buchanan shall thus adopt the policy for which
THE TRIBUNE has constantly contended, he shall In
so doing have our steady support. Let him plant
the Democratic party firmly on the rock OF hostility
te the Extension of Slavery, whether by the agency
of Border Ruffians or Fillibus.ers, let him put Il
final end to the insolent aggressions of the slave
breeders and slave traders against the CONSTITUTION
and the rights of Free Labor, and we are hence
forth on his side All that we ask OF any party Is
that it should abb lie by the ancient landmarks OF the
Government and inscrbe upon its banner the noble
and heuefceut motto of "NO Slavery outside OF the
Slave States" Let Mr.. Buchanan do this as we
are fondy told he will, and not only THE TRIBUNE,
but the entire Republican party will be there TO su''
tain HIM in the work. At the same time, we
wish I. 10 be understood now beforehand, that
while we yield faithful support to the President
who p,rs ues this liberty loving and patriotic course
we sh.l OF be able so much to admire the man, as
if he had won his present position by an open
avowa of his real sentiments and purposes Ad-
herencc TO Freedom is good and wise under all cir
cumstaDces but she loves her champions to come
I'D to her service unstained by any fasehood or
treachery. If Mr.. Buchanan always meant what
we are now told he means, how much better not to
have 3, ludsd anybody into the belief that he meant
the ODD site! Lying and cheating are not handsome
things in politics.
But does any sane and intelligent man really be-
Ieye that Mr.. Buchanan is now going to be Re
publicsu President If there be such one, re-
spect for him must preclude any special expression
of our opinion with regard to his expectations Only
let hun wait and zee.
