ly? Why, substantially, that h. is satisfied
owing to the natural antaronism between sla-
very and freedom and to the practical forces
at work among our peo,le. that slavery will
in time be utterly extinguished. but ..in no
other way than bv the States themselves, co.
operating with the federal government. and
all acting within the spheres of their respec.
tive constitutions" This deliberately caicu-
| latino unon the extincti,n of sln vor,, is do
nounced as an atrocious thing.
We propose to show that this is precisely
! what has been done by several OF the present
| leaders of the Democratic marty. And we
BEGIN with President Buchanan. Tn lS44

cussion in the senate. Mr.. Buchanan adyo-
Gated that measure Nith view Of oneninp

and slarcry usef nav thus pass the D.l
Norte. and be lost in lLrir0. " :, NTr R,.

slavery, but sufnorted a measure calculated
in his Judgment. to accomplish that end
Robert j Walker. by letter. expressed near.

vitiated by Douglasism. we PASS him by. We
take up Judge Breese, the man put forward
