Here is resistance to law of the land, which
has been pronounced constitutional by the ju-
dicial tribunals, openly counselled by Giddings,
as we have shown it to be by Sumner Seward,
and other Republican leaders! These mem
with G~ee'y Banks, and other kindred spirits,
are the men whom Lncoln, ifehosen President,
would call to aid him in administering the

scribed Are such men Git to be trusted with
such duties?

When the Kansas Nebraska bill was pending
Greely, Of the New York Tribune was for de-
stroying the Government and Union rather
than allow the bill to pass by the ordinary
forms of legislation. He said
1--WE urge therefore, unbending determination
on the part OF the northern members hostile to
to this ntolerable outrage, and demand of them
in behalf of peace, in behalf OF freedom, IN be-
half OF justice and hum minity resistance to the
last. Better that confu ion should ensue-bet-
Icouncils--bctter that Congress Sho,Hd break up IN

should blaze by the torch Qfthe incendiarg, or fail
and bury aR its inmates beneath us cr1rnbiinq ru-
ms than this pe,yfay and wr0ng should be finally
accomplished"
The sympathy OF the Republican party with
these anarchical and revolutionary views Of
Horace Grtely, and their readiness to break up
the government in order to carry out their plans
was fully shown some months afterwards by
their defeating tie ATmy Appropriation blu in
| the House Of Representatives, where they were
in majority; thus stopping the ,cAeels # gove,1a-
, ntent, and compelling an extra session of Con-
gress, because the Senate would not relinquish
their powers as coordinate branch of the
Government, and agree to the unconstitutional
provso passed by the House, deprving the

James Watson Webb, member OF the
Fremont Convention, and the editor of the

from which we extract the following:
"Our people-lovng order, loving law, and

o The assigned cause for the formation, organi
9 zation, violence, treason, and resistance to the
laws Of the Republican party, was the repeal ir

promise line Of So Q 30min. Yet it is notori
Gus that the line was voted against by the free
