 is in favor of Freedom National Progress, and Honor whether public or private

7The Hartford Times, New Haven Register and other democratic papers, mortified because Mir. Seward predicted in his Rochester speech that slave ry would eventually be extinguished in all the States of the Union. The Boston Evening Journal shows from the debates in Congress in 1944, when Texas was admitted into the confcderacy, that MT. Buchanan, Mir R. J. Walke,, Daniel S. Dickinson, Senator Norris of New Hampshire and other demo- cratic statesmen, made, each of them, the SAME PRE- DIcr1oN! The Boston Daily Advertiser, one ef the most conservative of the old Whig papers. cemmends Mr. Stewards speech very highly, in a leader which we copy elsewhere and ask for it the attention of some of our very conservative friends. who have pressed apprehensions to the effects of the speech upon the Republican party.
