The LecomptonItes.

The LecOmptonites!
This noisy squad of politicians are con
stantly slsndering the National Democracy
by attributing to them Black Republican
principles.
Z They probably have motive in thus con-
stantly reiicrating this palpable falsehood.
The thiefis fsst and loudest to cry "stor
thief" and the abolition ne gro steaier is
said. in his inroads into the southern States
while watching his opportunity to run off a
negro, to put tho community off their guard
by eulogistic praises OF the domestic nsti.
tstion.' ...s ...
| The LecomptoDtes ask C0ngi ess TO force A
slavery constitution upou Kansas against
the expressed will Of a vast majority Of her
| le0pie. ...
| Toe Republicans admit they would vote to
make Kansas free State If an equally large
majority wished n constitution with slavery.
The N,tional Democracy say they will
vote for constitution with or without slave
ry that has been su omitted 10 the people OF
the territory md approved by them.
The principle is. shall the expressed will
Of the territory govern in all cases. The
N .,ioual Democracy say il shall the LIE.

not. Is it not apparent that the Aecomp-
tonites and Republican. agree 50 far rs tue
principle is concerned Hence, we fad Free
monts champion (the N Y. Iberald) the
mouth piece OF the Lee omptontes.
Bat IL is asked why the Republicans and
National Democrats vote ,ogether in this
Kansas matter The reason is pinn. There
is M jority Of the people OF Kansas against
-lavery, and the Democracy woul do them
the jusice to allow them TO form their own
con >titution Ii all the Lomptonites in the
couutry should emigrate to New Mexico be-
for, the next session OF Congress, aud should
pr sent a pro slavery Constitution To that
bo y, aud it appeared they were numerous
en- ugh to be cattle | To member Of Co L.
gr 81, Douglas aud Broderck. and every
National Democrat would be found blttIing
! the Republicans, and doing the Lee 'npton-
ties the justice of giving them constitution
of their own choice.
To tho Democracy the negro i nothing -
The National & ,vcrnmcnt has but liltls to
do with the negro; and the'Iess the better.
The great principle of fcee government
tor the Caucasian race is every hing with
the Dem 'cracy, a great element ia the
Republican party consists of the ABSTRACT
iiea TINT the Negro cIn live with the white
man with local AMI pol'tioal iroe tom. anu
to attain this impractioal result. a lar.e por-
ton OF that party wonld adopt measures that
eldnnger the Union. Tnc tancied welfare oi
u few men who have been changed from
canibals TO slaves, anl who. il they ware not
under the supervision Of our race ~ouli soon
revert to canibalisn, is made by these men
of sufficient Importance to put IN Jeopardy
the We fare OF 100000 Of enlightened
| freemen.
But more than one half Of those who voted
Tor Fremont did so out of disgust for the
miserable frauds Of the LecouptJnites in
Kansas Let Now Mexico present herseli
Ia. morrow with constitution toleratin !,
slavery which had bccn submitted to a lair
vote Of her people, aud submit the question
toa direct vote of TIE people Of the Unitei
States whether Congress sha exc uie her
on account OF her toIeratiug slavery IN her
constitution, and the majority tor admitting
1t, IN the north (Which voted 50 strongly for
FrcemouU would be greater than the entire
vote of all the southern States. To the Abo-
liuonists AMI Lecomptonites the Negro ques-
ton IN everything.
| This miserly. Negro driving, pap eating
squad OF Lecomptonitcs would jeop .rdize all
that is dear to Freedom: the gloriou' history
of the past; the unexamplci prosperity oi
the present; the boundless hopes at u future
such rs never yet before dawned upon the
world for the paltry price OF loaIhsome
African slave, and in 81 doing are more iu-
| famous than the matrIcde who rObs his
murdered mother to pander TO the vices o
his harlot.
