act or former declaration against the interests
Of slavery in the South, or Of performing u
single one, with his own appreciation, in favor
Of her just rights. Where does he stand now?
In the vital issues now pending in this cleo
ton does Willard Fillmore uphold the equal
aud constitutional rights of the slave states or
does he favor the aggressive usurpations Of
Black Republication of the, North? His
southern friends tell us that he denounces the
Black Republicans. We tell them that he
has only turned states evidence against them
He denounccs them because they have accept
ed service under another leader. He denoun-
ccs these political thieves but he does not re-
ject their plundering schemes and operations.
He is willing to receive the stolen property
upon the terms of the theft. How is that?
Are the Black Republicans in favor Of the

and we dare his southern supporters 10 deny
it and show us his declaration to the contrary
Are the Black Republicans in favor of the
Missouri restriction or Compromise? SO is
Fillmore, says he-"l have no hesitation in
saying that was decidedly opposed to the
disturbance Of that compromise" Are not
the Black Republicans most bitterly and vio-

the questions of slavery and he now avows tn,
