The Republicans of Washington
City on the Harper's Ferry Trouble.

The Washington States, the special organ
of Senator Douglas at the Capital, having
made most vindrcative, unfair ard violent
assault on the Republicans OF Washington
Cityi charging them with being accompliees
Of Brown in the rece ut outb. eak at iIarper's
Ferry, and hintiag at the propriety Of mob
ing them, the Repub ican Association there
ad., ,7ted the following resolutions, which ex:
press fully the sentiments of the Republi-
can party at large:
Resolusd, That the Republicans OF Wash
ington repel with scorn the imputations Of
their being in connection with the Harper's
Ferry tragedy, cast upon them by the reck-
less p, rtisAn sheet in this city, in the inter-
est of Senator Douglas. ....
Resolved That the assertions of that pa
per to the effect that the Republicans OF this
City had any conf ecIion with the mad,
wicked and absurd schemes OF the handful
of in yuders that seized the Government Ar
mory at Harper's Ferry, or thu, they had
the faintest idea that such plot was en-
foot, priur to its occurrence, is false and mag
Iig1n., and ins,igated with view to man.
ufacture Democratic capital.
Resolved, That the allegation that Brown
had confed-rates or sympathizerS in his trea-
sonabe folly, among the Republicans Of
Washington, is a slander for which the au-
thor should be vi-ited with the heaviest PEN
alties Vfthe law.
Resoire9, That the members of the Re-
publican Association of Washington adhere
TO the platform of their party, as adopted in
June. 1856, at Philadelphia. They believe
that Freedom is national, and that Slavery
is sectional, or local, and while they would
restrict Slavery 10 its present limits BY Con-
greessonal prohibition, they deny all right
on the part of the Fedaral Government to
interfere with it in the States.
Resolred, Nevertheless, that we are us
southernmen by birth or adoption, claim
the constitutional right, freely to discuss
Slavery,in common with all other matters
pertaining to the public welfare, and to
urge upon our felhw-ci,i7ens of the south
the duty and policy of emancipation by wise,
peaceful and gradual means.
Resolved, That, in common with Wash
ington, jefferson. Franklin, Jay and Mad.
ison, we regard Slavery as morally and po-
li'ically wrong; that we mean to maintain
these views, and urge them upon fhe atten--
tion of cur fellow-citizens in spite of the
brutal & cowardly mana ces of tie organs of
a spurious Democracy.
Resolved. That we adhere to :he State
rights doctrine of Thomas jefferson, and
tha; while, with that great Apostle of Re-
publican liberty, we dislike Slavery, knd
will never cease laboring for its removal,
we stand ready to vindicatc the right of the
Southern States to control al their domes-
tic affairs for themselves, unawed by Fed
eral usurpation or by ruffian invasion.

6FGov. Willard's connection with
Browns Lieutenant is a misfortune which
we are not disposed to aggravute, by GEN.
suring him for acting in accordance with
natural feeling. But suppose, instead Of
being brother-in-law of Democratic Gov.
ernor, Cooik had been a brother. in law Of
Gov. Morgan c: Gov. Chase! Suppose they
had gone down to Harpei's Ferry to labor
for his acqui.tal. What howl would hive
been raised by the Herald, the Journal of
Commerce. and the Fifth Avenue Demo-
cracy! How yea lously would they have
harped upon the fact as evidenss Of "com-
plicity with the insurrection" As it is,
they will be silent as the grave-for "cir-
custances alter casesT-A lbany Evening

say whether the above is not strictly true.

REJOICES THAT MISSOURI is BECOMING A
FREE STATE.
His creed is, that every State has a right
to say how much it wants CT African Slav-
cry. and when its people are tired Of it. He
does not regard it as perpetual institution,
but as in its very nature, abnormal and evan.
ecent, changing rapidly under the influence
of climate, commerce, civilization, religion
laws. He knows, (and is glad to know ill.,
that Missouri is rapidly becomeing Free
State; and he does not deplore the fact that
it is by transportation and not by emancipa-
tion, that the State is so rapidly becoming
Free; for he knows that the Emancipation
of the Slaves to remain in this country and
mix with the whites, is abhorrent and Eintol-
erable. And send them aboard by sudden
and total exodus, is beyond the means Of
any government What is beyond his own
wisdom, he leaves to inscrutable ways and
infinite wisdom of God. The rapid and
peaceful extinction Of Slavery that is going
on in Missouri. without the aid of" Emancipa-
tion PARTIES" and without the heat and ac-
rimony of domestic discord, is entirely in
accordance with the views and feelings Of
Mr.. Bates. While Mr.. Bates is glad to see
Slavery declining in Missouri, other strong
Oppositionists are sorry to witness the same.
SLAVERY BEYOND REACH OF DEMAGoGUEs-
FREE LABOR BOUND TO BECOME DOMINANT.

tween himself and that pro-slavery neighbor
