From the Nashville Union and American. Abolitionism in the South-A Voice from The Northern Democracy.

1Hc ooutuciH opposltiou diC CoiotdHtiy pouring forth their islanders against the northern democracy while secretly nursing in their own bosom the worst enemies of southern institutions. It must be clear to the mind of every one, where men are found in the south, voting in Congress with the abolitionists upon questions peculiarly affecting our rights and institutions, such as Winter Davis of Maryland, Blair of Missouri, Bell of Tennessee, Marshall of Kentucky, and others of the know noth- ing taction-for it can hardly be called party-little inducement or encouragement is held out to our northern friends-few, though they be-to stand by us and defend us They are assailed at home with being more southern than the south, and the votes of these men are pointed out to prove it. How long will the south suffer herself to be divided and 'misrepresented by such men, and thus give aid and comfort to the common enemy to beat our friends in the north, and finally to overwhelm us at the south
 Listen to the voice of the northern de- mocracy in this emphatic and eloquent pro- test from the Philadelphia Argus:
 Horace Greeley is particularly we'll pleased with the policy and position of the opposition party of the south," says the Argus. "The only party in this country which has ever presented an impossible barrier to the flood-tide of fanaticism and abolitionism, which, but for its herculean ex- ertions, would long ago have rolled in tor rents of blood and desolation over the fair fields of Virginia and other southern states, IS the democratic party. The only party which has nobly, manfully, at all risks and every hazard, stood by the guarantees of the constitution, is the democratic party The only party which has ever interposed an effectual safeguard between southern rights and northern aggression, is the de- mocratic party. The abolitionists, north and south, know this full we'll; hence, they make common cause in endeavoring to break it down. The fanatics know per fectly we'll that so long as the democra- tic party retains its supremacy, their trea sonable designs will be frustrated, and they take their measures accordingly.
 "To be sure, the southern allies of Gar risonon traitors do not call themselves abolitionists; they are infinitely too warm for their comfort in those sunny regions, If they were to come out publicly in their true character-hence they wear mask, call themselves Americans, profess to hold northern incendiarism in the deepest ab. horance and detestation, in order to carry out their political designs the more easily and the more effectually.
 "Look at the opposon vote in Congress; it is a solid phalanx; man to man, shoul- der to shoulder; no lodging, no hinching. The aboitionists of the north and their secret allies at the south vote precisely the same way on every important national ques- tion, showing that they have common aim, common object, and that their sym pathies are one and the same. Occasion ally, to be sure, where the subject is too open and glaring, the southern opposition members make a virtue of necessity, and separate for the moment from the disciples of Garrison and Greeley; but such separa- ton IS only temporary. Within the next hour they are hail fellows we'll met" "i'h eiiN HUI NHo dIC tllt over throw of southern rights and southern in- stitutions. A
 We think that we have right to ask that our southern friends should take good care of the abolitionists in their own i'm. mediate neighborhoods, as we do at the north. While we are battling for the guarantees of the constitution in manner in which we are not personally interested, 1t certainly IS not asking too much of those whose all is in jeopardy from the efforts of traitors in our midst, to rebuke them in a manner which cannot fail to be effectual We will take care of our own disorgani. gers, fanatics and incendiaries; let the south do the same with their allies the other side of the Potomac; the free soilers of Virgi- mia, North Carolina, etc., etc. We are willing to fight on, fight ever,' but we ask the cooperation of those we are fight ing for. Let the south purge its own bor- ders of abolitionism and fanaticism will starve in six months."
