cry OF Slavery sway the dcstinics Of
our country In the light Of the pres

unless IL gain supreme control. Rule

After what has been said. il were

be found in the great struggle that now
convulscs our whole country. Indeed.
TO those acquainted with his past his
tory, mo word need lie said ON the sub
lcct. Those best acquainted with his
nnsccedcnts," know that he is no new
convert to the Anti-slayery faith, or
new conner in the Republican ranks /;
but that for the whole OF his political
life Of score and more Of years he has
acted from the same platform on which
he nj present stands. And he has on
ly further to say on this subject, at
present, that while his stand on this
question will be firm and uncompro-
missing. and his future course in this
journal strictly and undcviaiingly in
accordance with his own convictions Of
truth and duty. he hopes to be able to
treat those holding different opinions
from himself on this or any other sub
jcet with all due respect and courtesy
But our community has other and
important interests apart from those
Of political nature; and in their
promotion, as time and circumstances
develop the occasion, he will take the
greatest pleasure. The intellectual
and moral education Of our youth

nccd not speak, as our columns will
speak for him.
We expect from this time 10 devote
our entire attention to the mechanical
department Of the paper, and we in
tend by this means to avoid a great
