ted BY the facts. We have shown that BE very
men who few years ago were the Supporters
OF the regular Abolition nominees for President,
ate now the acknowledged leaders anSsiandard-
bearers ofthe party calling itself ssRe5ubican =
we have shown that the newspaper organs of
that party in this state, have triumPaanyly claim
ed that the people are now thronsins togah-
er TO hear LovgJoY, Black Republican Con-
gresham, rnuncate and deieEd the very doc
tfines for the assertion and promuialioa of
which bis Abolition brother was put to d,ath
BY mob, twenty years ago We have shown
that the Black Republican party is making var
upon the Southern section oflhis Union, thai its
leaders stigmatize and denounce the people OF
the South, merely because Of their exercise of
the privileges guaranteed to them by the Con-
stitution, and that the very if's life Of thatpar-
iy is the agitation of the anti-slavery dogma all
Of which is likewise true of AboliiionisIn, and
of Garrison, Parker and PiIlsbury. Hatng
proved these things, il would hardly be recsssa-
ry TO adauce further Evidence 10 consiTce any
reasonable man that Black Repnblicarism and
| Abolitionism are Identical and their Ultimate
| object one and the same. What fellows is,
therefore, addressed TO the unreasonable TO
the truth fash upon them bright and dazzling
as the light of Christianity did upon Pau to
such as have steeled their hearts and coFscien-
ces against Democratic testimony aud would not
hearken unto the representations OF Democrat,
'fhough one rose from the dead" to testify to
| his credibilhy.
! WILLIAM H. SEWARD, OF New York, is the
representative man" of Black Republicanisnn
He is recognized by all parties as the head aud
| front ofthat organization, which under preknce
of an ardent devotion 10 the principle o. hu-
man freedom, is secretly the bitter and uicom-
promising foe OF that Constitution which guar
anteps to all who live under it the rights and
privileges of freemen. Mr.. SEWARD in speech
male al Rochester, New York, during the late
| campaign in that State, spoke as foliows
''Shall tell yon what this collision means!
They who think that il is accidental, nnnecessa-
ry, the work Of Interested or anatical aaitators
and therefore ephemeral, mistake the case alto

Ii is The failure to aPPrehend this great truth
that induces SO many unsuccessful attempts at
final compromise between the slave and free
States, and it IS the existence of this great fact
that renders all such pretended COMPROMISES
when made, vain and ephemeral."
Now, what does This mean but crusade a.
gainst the institutions Of the South What
does this mean but that there must be sectional
agitation, internecne conflict, and, if necessary,
civil war, until either he South shall be con-
| qufred by the North, or The North BY the
South And If is "confict between opDo-
sing aud enduring forces,' tha, is, between Free
Labor and Slave Labor, with which OF these
"iorces" will Mr.. SEWARD and his Black Repub-
lican follow ers cast their influence, or with
which ofthem do they at present cooperate {!

then they must be enlisted egainst IT. II a
! gainst Slavery, then are they identified with
that "enduring force" which urges the United
! States to become ''entirely free labor nation"
And if identified with that ''iorce," they are
"Abolitonists,' for an that case 1t must be
their prime oJsctto bring about the total sr-
ti"ction Of starery.
| Of the declaration OF Mr.. Seward above QUO
ted, GERRIT Smith, Abolition candidate for
Governor Of New York, at the late election in
that State, says in a recent letter:
81 am not sure but Governor Stewards Ro-
chester speech did more than all other things 10
damage my prospects. 1t passed for an Abo-
litlon speech, especially because IL espoused our
old .7boiition doctrine, that in the end all The
Sfates must be blessed acith freedom or cursed
NTH sLaury."
Here we have the testimony of the most
thorough-going Abolilionist in the Union, tia,
Seward, the leader and law-giver of The Black
Republicans, has espoused the sod Abolition
doctrine" And if his evidence is to be reiec-
ted, whose is TO be received : Truly, If the
prince of Abolitionists does not know wha, is
AboIitionism, then Satan does not know what Is
