The domestic peace and harmony that WITH essed the
restoTaiion of the party now in power have been

the Government to spread the blight of Slavery over
free territory, in defiance Of the popular will.
Corruption has gained undisputed mastery in almost
every department Of power, and stamped its fearful
stain indelihly upon the Government; and shameless
ProAigaey has given us national bankruptcy at home

great industrial interests Of our State, and redress
from the endless train of evils flowing from the faith

The Territories of the Great West teen with beauty
and richness. There, with free homes, our sturdy
sone would new empires 10 pour forth their
boundless wealth. aud add to the prosperity and true
greatness of onr boasted Republic. They have es-
capped the whitening blight Of servile labor thus far
only by defyiDg the whole power Of two Democratic
Admin strat,os, add leaving history crimsoned with
the flood of orr brethren.

To restore the Government TO it's original purity; to
