the House refused to concur by a very de.

The N ational [ MON Party.

This Is tho name of n new my,hic party
which, itliout reference to its hybriel and
bastard origin, we propose treating us oster
sibly seen by those who can not lopl
behind the curtain. The object as declared
In the address to the people of lthe Uniiet
States, Is to rescue the Government from
the hands of the two great parties of the
country. They charge upon these parties
the useless ugitation Of tho question oil
slavery, and predicate the correctness oil
their theory, upon the charge that a Conven.
lion has boon called for the nomin alton of q
Presidential candidate by ono of these par.
tics, (which, by the necessary logic of its
construction will exclude fifteen States Of
the Union. This does not, can not apply to
the Republican party, whether intended for
it or not. The principles OF the Rep iblicun

never won a victory on any other basis. But

the territories can be ignored, by admitting
all that lis propagators osk, and you of the
North are appealed to in hpnicd Phrase to
yield. We mistoke your metal If you do any
such ;hing.
The next principle enunciated is ulso to
meet the demands of the South and the In
s%titution of slavery. While the North do not
object TO the rendition OF fugitives from
slavery, the South in its extreme jeulously
demands even more security. We would
like to see a little legislation for the North.
The only form Of recognition of the claims
of the industrial interests Of the North is
the following:
To cultivate and expand the resources of
the country by such protection to every use.
ful pursuit and interest ae Is compatible with
the general welfare and equitable to all.
This we take to be about os equivocal as
language can express it. A d~elusion for
pennsylvania, with the reservation, that the
slave power may determine what protection
is 'compstible with the general welfare, &c.

DO more to throw the Government into the

clusion we only state a fact for the consid-

upon the party with some degree Of allow
anre. In 1856, the Fillmo re press was paid
out OF Democratic plumber, SO tina. they
might exert the more power to defeat the
Republican lparty. They succeeded, and
your reward is the Admin i%strntion Of James
Buchanan. You are now invited to a simi.

from the Democracy, for they are the bes
