nothing. The case is now urgent, and Mr.. Wise
should be sent for without further loss OF time
Perhaps his estimates of the astonishing rise in
the price of niggers with the election of Mr.. |
Buchanan may exert wholesome influence |
among our rebel,ious soft shells, who are still |
ready, however, for any speculation whereby to
turn an honest penny. Something must be done
for the New York democracy OF their case will
be past praying for before the expiration of the
dog days.
Next we turn to Missouri, and fad similar
division there in the democratic camp. Col.
Benton, the anti-administration antsecession
democratic candidate out there for Governor, has
opened the campaign with the most caustic, pun
gent and nerciless philippe :sgainst Mr.. Pierce,
his Cabinet, his administration, his foreign and
domestic policy the Cinchlati Convention and
the Cincinnati plaiform--sne most terrible dis
section that the whole concern, from Washington
to Cincinnati, has ever y<t experienced. Benton
goes for Buchanan but seaves him not plank to
stand upon, usr rope to hold by. The danger
Is that these dernora' zations among the demo-
cracy in Ne's York md Missouri, Ito say nothing
of the poorly disguised symptoms of this contest
and mssily in the camp elsewhere,) may, unless
promptly arrested, extend to other States, and
utterly break up fae calculations Of Mr. Forney,
of smooth and decisive victory in November.
Among the outside factions of the opposition
there is likewise a good deal Of fuss and fun-
msry very much like that of a fussy old hen
over one chicken Thus the Fillmore Know
Nothings are fussing and laundering about here

remember that their dark lantern, on motion of
Mr.. Botts was put out month ago. Thus Com
modore Stockton, nominated by a convention
| for the whole Of which there would be plenty of
| room in an omnibus is fussng and cackling, over
| in Jersey az if there were house on fire. He
| calls out substantially to Mr.. Fillmore" The
| Union is in danger Do you think you can save
| it? If you can, will step asde--if not | must
keep the fed-for the Union must be saved
| Mr.. Fillmore substantially responds American
| principles can alone save the UniUn--I am the
| regular American candidate | stand fast, be-
cause the Union is in danger and it must be
saved"
In one Of the qualification speeches of the late
| hear Northern man cry, the Union-the
Union-the glorious Union methinks hear the
bugle blast of the robber band; but when hear
a Southern man cry the Uniop-the Union
| oh the glorious Union methinks / snuff trca-
son in the tainted gale.' McDuffe was multi
fer but still there is q great deal Of humbng in
ihis politician cry of the Union-the Union
there is danger to the Unien." All the disap-
pointed old party hacks Pierce, Douglas Fill
more, Stockton and all the rest, including even
Benton among the number-sYould have us believe
that the Union is in peril ana that the election
of Fremont, from the sectional platform which
| he occupies viii result in an explosion az
disastrous to all concerned as the bursting Of an
old burnt out steamboat boiler in tie middle Of

ally elected to save the Union, and that was
Franklin Pierce The American people are not
apt to be taken in and done for The second time
with the same trick. The Union-saying trick
has been pretts well used up 10y Mr. Pierce. He
seems TO haze taken particular pains and plea

deception. 70 ask the election Of Nh Buchanan,
on the same platform and the same policy, is like
adding insilt 70 injury, and rubbing 1t in.
still we gGc fnet with she plea that this res1b-
lean party is purely secaonal-that they dare not
run an electoral ticket in any Southern Stste
Why not? Ia3sy do net propose to touch the in
stitation of s.JEery in any State, nor in the Dis
tTict Of ColuEobia, nor the fugitive slave isw
What constitutional impetiment is there then, 10
a Fremont electoral ti3tet III every Southern
State in tie Union There is this dificulty--the
Northern republican party declare thai Kansas
shall be admitted into the Union as q free State,
and thai Southern slavery shall be excluded from
all the other Territories OF the Union. TO THE
extent this party is sectional party but not
more 50 than the democratic party whose policy
il the extension OF slavery.
But there are other causes than slavery, and /
other sentiments, observation-disclosures than the Ken
