ssEm ancipasi6n is the Leading Measure
of Western Policy. -

This sounds well, and is well. 1t is
strong in thought and feeling, noble in ex-
preston and grand in promise. Nor, sup
pose it comes, reader, from a Northern pen
it is Southern, AMI has pluck in it which
will shame the doughfaces and services of
the Free States. We copy it from the
Missouri Democrat. sa lenp "a
.'F'REE WHITE LABOR" This is the
battle cry, and when was there ever bet
ter one "Free White Labor" 1t is that
which has made the Free West, and that
alone can save Missouri, and Kentucky,
Virginia and Maryland. The Missouri
Democrat knows this and heroically says,
come from what quarter it may, we will
meet the opposition which denies, "that
the future of our State depends upon free
rhite labor"
Nor will it stand alone, although no po-
sition so glorious could be occupied. The
Central -Advocate, 1.-THE Methodist organ of
Missouri) comes to its aid. 1t is for
Emancipation, and says:
Let us have no lodging, no side issues
wrung in. The scheme by which this is
to be effected, in all its details, can, by the
wisdom of our statesmen and philanthro-
pists, be wrought out in due time; and the
means necessary to the accomplishment OF
so grand and glorious consummation-a
corsummation over which christian men
and angels would shout--can be secured.
We declare that here every man is with
out excuse. If any decline to favor eman-
cipation, we suppose it must be from one
of two considerations either they have not
the courage to declare their wishes, lest
they incur the displeasure OF some, or they
do not consider slavery an evil but bless
ing, and therefore do not desire its ex-
| tinctiOn.
Will the religious press Of the State
speak out upon the subject? We wait with
anxiety to see; not that we fear the conse-
ouences for ourselves if they should not
come to the rescue, for we unhesitatingly
assert that whenever we think we may for
ward the cause of emancipation by so do
ing, we shall speak, regardless OF what
others may do or fail to do; but we arr
confident that, should the religious press
and the churches of Missouri give theil
decided influence for emancipation, it vii
go very far toward the accomplishment
of this most desirable object.
1t needs only courage, kind but reso
lutte purpose in good and noble men, il
Missouri, Virginia, Maryland, North Car
olina, Kentucky and Tennessee, to pu
forward the glorious cause of the whit
man with practical success and sure ben
eft to all classes. 1t needs only true ant
courageous action to ensure the success o
gradual emancipation in all these States
Missouri will lead, and be great in deeds a
well great in acts, great in wealth, mind sn'
character. Let the friends of the Whit
man labor on, then, and all will b
well. :

parity psrwseN to Which sfD attached Of
course aware that hold to the doctrines of the demo-
cratic party. My position these questions was
elaborated various speeches in different portions OF the

lated in published form. I make a similar
ply your 4h 5th 9th and It'll undergraduates and am
therefore, opposed TO the distribution OF the proceeds Of

occasion for repeating the neutrality laws though hold
this open question: which may be controlled IN future
by the policy pursued by other governments. In reply
to your 10th nterrogatory, have TO say that DO not
hold the constitutional right OF secess on nasmuch as
in my opinion, secession is revolutionary remedy
which however toerabe oppression or upon
the rights Of any State people may justify. To your

Legislature has the right to instruct Senators IN congress-
and that it is their duty to obey resign.

Of the federal constitution referred TO by YOU as favored
by Mr. Jefferson and General Jackson and more recently
by Governor Johnson, have always met the approval Of
my Judgment but in view Of the existence OF the black
republican organization, with its aims and purposes
myself the policy at least so long as IN
my judgment the present danger of sectional collisions ex
lists, Of advocating change OF the federal constitution Tor
the purpose of incorporating with it those amendments.
