MANIFESTO OF THE FIFTH AVENUE AssoC1A-
TloN OF vIGILEST AND HIGHLY RESPECTABLE
DEMOCRATS.
Fellow citizens At n meeting of this as
ISOLATION, held at the Fifth Avenue Hotel,
on the 18th inst. the following resolution
was unanimously adopted:
Resolved, That, inasmuch as the great
majority of the Democratic party are una
bic to read the newspapers, and utterly des-
titute of intellect sufficient to enable them
to form an opinion on subjects of vital po-
terrible instruction ct Harper's Ferry nf
fords the most delightful! stock Of political
capital to which the Democratic party has
fallen heir for many years past, it is deem
ed advisable TO appoint committee Of
highly respectable Democrats to collect the
facts or all that can by any possibility, be
made TO rebound to the glory of our beloved
but decaying organization in relation to the
late dreadful revolution in Virginia, and to
lay the same before the public at the earliest
possible msment.
In pursuance of the above resolution, be-
loved, your committee have procured a copG
Of the New York Herald, and have made
copiCus extracts from the same We having
the most implicit confidence in the integrity
and uprIghtness of that guardian Of the
Democratic party.
Your Committee have also madepersonal
examinations of Old Brown and several col
oTrd gentlemen engaged ID this terrible at
tempt to overthrow the government OF the
United States. We have procured Through
the poltencss Of President Buchanan) one
Of Browns carpet-hag continuing large
quantities. of reasonable correspondence,
going to show the completely of the .eaders
of the Republican party IN this neiarious
and shocking attempt TO blow up tie con-
federacy Of the States.
We subioin few of these letters, by
which it may be perceived that the or
ganization for the destruction Of the govern
ment embraced millions of northern men,
and was only prevented from carrying out
its devastating designs by a fortunate mis-
take of Mr.. Browns.

We do not deem it necessary to prcseu,
any more letters to show. The traitorous de-
signs Of the Republican party. Its 4 party
Of black hearted trrasOnuble fanatics, and
it must be crushed ere it be too late and the
gloomy shades of slavery night settles up
ON the hopes and aspirations Of our frater-
nIty. But these acts are the natural of
spring Of the principles Of that ufch-trator
William III. Seward. Allow US to call voul
attention tn Il little fair which has not been
noticed sufficiently. We al!ude to the dIa-
boilca principles eouncinttd by that Beel-
zebub in human form. the aforesaid Seward,
in his speech at Rochester. wherein he de-
Cared that there was an "lrrepresslhIe con-
tIict' between the North and the South: that
it must 90 on forever and ever. or until one
or the other succumbcd. That the North
must wage eternal war upon the South

extermlnate Southern homes and families
and that slavery must be cxunguishel in
seas Of Southern blood.
