Ca The Louisville Journal suggests an OPPOSE
February, that the party in Kentucky may take
some action in reference to the next Presidential
election. We are pleased to see the proposition
and hope it will be promptly acccded to. The first
movement OF the kind, has been made by Virginia
and we hope the example will be followed by all
the slave States in quick succession. There is no
longer doubt that the Opposition party is to exert
a most important if not controlling influence in the
next election, and every step that tends to concert
Of action, and the Development of the sound, ma

may be formed, and if the Opposition in Virginia,

Bay Cincinnati Gazette very properly remarks
that the sins Of the party to which old Brown be-
Ions, can not justly be visited upon the Republic an
any more than upon the democratic party. 1t would
not b, far wrong to say that the democratic party
Alone is responsible for the outbreak at Harper
Ferry. But for the unwise and unceasng agitation
OF the slavery question, by the democrats, abo-
tionsm would have been buried years ago, and Re
pu5lclnism would never have been born. 1t is
true, too that an overwhelming majority of north
ern democrats are as bitterly anti-slavcry rs the
Republicans, whilst thousands of them in the South,
in advocating Douglass whose doctrines are even
more dangerous than those of Seward, give more
effective aid 10 such schemes as Browns than tiAir
northern allies because they are traitors within the
camp, But for southern endorsement of sauatter
sovereignty, aud the election of John Lecher. it is
probable the IIarpers Ferry outbreak would never
have occurred
