Since the time the lines and boundaries
Of the Democratic party were first marked
out by its, head and founder, Jefferson, it
has been its peculiar lot to settle every i'm
portant principle of government that has
arisen. The Federal issues, the Bank
question, the Protective Tariff, the Terri
toIial question, have each come on in their
turn, and after severe struggle been fl
nally disposed Of.
These contests have not all been fought
without loss to our party; and none great
er, THAI when the first battle was fought
for Popular Sovereignty in the passage Of
the Kansas-Nebraska Bill. But after these
questions have been finally settled, and
their great principles incorporated into the
framework of our government, there are
those. who deserted us in the day of bat
tie. seen returning into the camp. ashamed
of their past delusion, but wiser and better
from the lessons they have learned.
The last, the longest, and most violent
struggle. that has ever yet taken place, has
just ended, by placing Territorial Sove-
reignty in the front ranks Of republican
rights. We have been the losers in the
contest-in the victory, now, we have eve
ry thing to gain. Never were the pros
poets of the Democratic party more favora
BILE than at the present time. Never did
it occupy more. grandly conspicuous po
sition before the American people; and
were it to-day called upon to try its
strength in contest for the highest Office
in the gift of the people, it would sweep
the polls with such victory as was neve
before awarded to any standard bearer.
What has our party now to content
with? The Americans, OF Know Moth
ings, have long since abandoned, if the,
ever entertained, any claim to nationa
strength. The old Wing party-a part,

principles were odious. 1t still lives, b.

Dropping the metaphor, we ask in all

for the nutrinent Of national existence?
In the settlement of the Kansas difficulty,
and the consequent triumph of Territorial
Sovereignty, they have lost their last ref

for them, now, either to disband the organ
ization Of their party altogether, or to so
back into the ranks of the ultra. Abolition
lists from whence they sprung, and from,
whom they differ only in courage, and
make their interests and principles iden-
teal with those of Lloyd Garrison and
Wendell Phillips. Either alternative is
