The weekly American banner. (Yazoo City, Miss.) 1855-18??, 1856-10-31

Many q the recplt of the South, in their child
like sinplielty. hare Imagined that there was but
one Fresoil party ii the Unitod States, and that
that party was led BY Frcnont and Dayton, But
recent Developments have overthrown this deluson.
We have never failed to be able 10 foreel precise
" what the remnant Of the old Democratic party.
now known as the Sag- Nicrts or Anti American
party intend to do in elections by perusal Of their
papers. Whatever they intend to do in the CAM
paign they are sure to accuse the old Wing party,
if in existence and the American rarty of doing pre-
ciseIy the same thing eximplc-if they intend
to practice The grossest fraud Tint has ever dsgra-
ced an electon-orif they intend violence or blood
shed or if they intend to practice feeaoilism or to
court freesol or Abolition votes they invariably be-
gin by accusing their opponents Of such intentions
and practices We call on all Observing men to cast
their minds back to the history ofthis Rule or Ruin
party and to say if this be not literally true
Now look at the recent developments, without
going b OK to hunt up other instances which lie
scattered in degrading parcels all around their path
way. The Anti Americans charged Abolitionsm
and Freesoilism upon Mr.. Fillmore from the first
day of his nomination. The object was to draw
public attention from themselves. 1t was the real
stop thief policy 1t seemed to withdraw public
observation from them. and to put the Fillmore ar
sty on his defence, and thus employed, they hoped
TO practice precisely the things clandestinely
Listen to electromagnetic candidate for the Vice
Presidency in Indiana, In stump speech ther,
he proclaimed that che did not belong to any part,
that desired for its object the extension o
slavery Now what Is this but fYeesolism?
he did not belong to party in favor of the extern
sion Of slavery must be true he belonged to par
tyopposed to its extension His party is, therefore
by his own showing, freeson party. 1t cannot b
pretended that he was ignorant of the proelivite
of his party. This would be to stultify him m,
the party. No. The Van Burens and Bentons an
Dixes, know full we'll the principles Of the party
which they belong. Martin Van Bnren, in his wish
to rule or ruin the country in ls48 failed becaus
his party was principally sectional. In sc wit
the object ana the same princ les, bat with
! deeper policy, he unites himself to the Buchana
: party, which, by the arts of leosion has Souther
supporters and throughtfis slghtappearance of nj
, tionality he hopes too see Rule or Ruin. Are til
Van Burens deceived? Can any man pretend tn,
they are! Are they not too slrewl for that? N
Ne! They not deceived, and Breckenridge h'
= acknowledged that they know precisely what the
are about. He acknowledged that his party is FIR
i Soil and that is enough.
Wepredieted long ago that the SIG NIGHTS woul
- count Abolition votes before the election was ove
anu now here is the fulfllment. Will the eyes
the peopleforever be closed to the nefarous pract
ees of this corrupt party? Now, in what respe
IS do they diff.r from the Fremont party? Only
D. this that it pretends to be national whilst Fremont
"a has evsry badge OF Sec!ionality. And thus it W
i, that the Sag Nicht Convention at Cincinnati decla
ts ed the Van Buren, party. the "Sotts" Of New Yo
;, National Democrats They intended from the I'll
:, to cover all parties with their India Rubber bla
