GREELEY. RAYMOND, and Brooks on one side, and
Messrs. BELL, ChsTTENDEB, and MARSHALL on the
other. and says, Eve knew our neighbOr was I'M
easy, as all Democrats are when they see DISPOSE
ton among Northern people to moderate their
political views and unite with conservative men Of
the South in opposing the wild schemes of Demo
cracy."
Now, does our neighbOr really suppose that
HORACE GREELEY, in uniting with the anti-Lecomp-
ton men Of the South, will abandon any Of his ultra
or extreme notions on the subject of slavery! The
Black Republicans will constitute large majority
Of the new party, and there is more reason to be-
lieve that they will bring their Southern allies into
their views than that they will modify any Of their
cherished opinions to suit the South.
We advise our neighbOr to keep out Of the cOali-
ton if he wishes to avoid contamination and would
warn him not to rush too eagerly into the embraces
of GREELEY and RAYMOTD, though he may think
them, as be says he does, tOlerably good looking"
Our neighbor is in great danger Of being misled
by his ardent and susceptible nature but we do hope
that he will not suffer himself to be carried away
by Father GREELEY personal attractions.
