REPUBLICAN SENTIMENT IN NEW YORK.
ALBANY, N. Y, July Is, 1858.

ALBANY, N. Y, July Is, 1858.
To the Editor Of tie National Era:
Since Senator Douglas has defined his posi-
ton in bis Chicago speech, the Republicans
bereabouts seem less disposed to "let down 4"
their platform to receive recruits. They find
they don't get them, while the party loses
character and consistency in the trying. The
disposition now is to adopt the noble motto of
Abe Lincoln, The Union all free, or the Union
all Stare" On this platform let us take our stand
and give our opponents the choice ofthe alterns.
tive If they wish Slavery to cover the Ter
rtores, let it overshsdow the so-caled free
States also, and then our country will present
one consistent whole of blackness. But, as for
Republicans, they claim the same for Freedom.
Americans and Douglas Democrats, who wish
10 enlist under either banner, have free oppor-
tunity. Such seems to be prevailing senti.
ment following the disappointment created by
reading Douglass speech. am satisfied there
will be no "lettiDg down" among the rank and
file L. publicans of this State.
On the other hand, there is strong feeling
in favor of making the Republican party more
AntSavery than ever. Popular Sovereignty,
Non Extension of Slavery, Protection, and every
other subject, are dull of interest by the side
of Slavery per Sc.
As an evidence of this, might refer to the
strong feeling existing in favor of nominating
Gerrit Smith for Governor, and the increasing
demand for stock in the Underground Rail.

localities in the cause of .1gitive slaves.
Private meetings are held, and money is raised
10 keep the road in good running order. men,
ton this only to show where the hearts of the
people are centered.
The Republican State Convention meets in
about six weeks, and the indications are, that
the ticket it dominates will be elected by a
large majority. b.
