The Campaign In 1IIchi.an.


j
WET MAzcu1srxR, Mich, June ~ ls1o.
Never before was L nomination received by
the people with such satisfaction. No map, not
esen Democrat, can say ausht agn;nst *'Old
Abe.' Hc is man Of the people. His fitness,
honesty and integrity are never questioned BY
cur opponents, and they all unite In saying that
he will be hard to dfa:. When the news Of lis
selection ut Chicago was received here the
Democrats we're lust about the wsathiest set of
f.liaws you can imagine. The fact i*, if the lit
lie Sluatter Sovereign is not put up ut DA1ti-'
more it will hardly be worth while for them 10
run ticket in this State.
Ooe thing we are satisfied Of in regard to Mr.
Lincoln. ue.is not committed TO cliques, and
will make no promises until after election
Our State Convention put up "Our Bia!r,"
{Austin Dlair,} Of jackson, for Governor. and
James Birney fer Lieutenant Governor. This,
like our National ticket. gires great satisfaction
to the masses. MIR. Blair is the most popular
man in the State, and bis nomination will add
several thousand to our majority next Novem-
ber. The battle here is as Jet aIl on oue side
the Democrats hazing made no State or National
nom,nations-aud we feel rs if We were fighting
against nothing. Rousiug ratification meetings
will be held US soon MS the other party make
their selection. With such men as Lincoln and
lIam!in, and Blair aud Brnfy on the State and
Nat,onul tickets. we cannot fail to carry tue
State by 81, 900 minority in round numbers.
Uurrah for " Honest Old Abe"
Yours, CTHrs T. STEVENS.

to SPEAK at the late Anniversary Of the Church
Anti.SlaveFy Society. In this letter ne ssys:.
ments which entertained in earlier life on the
subject Of Slavery, except to intensity them.
And expect not to change them except in tie
same way. Nest heartily do I wish that tie
Church-and all our beloved countEy.were
clear Of the evil, and most willingly would do
anything that could to bring that about aud
most heartily do hail any well-directed effort
to dstach The Church wholly from the system"

The Democracy arc reaping the rewards Of
their continued and persistent agitation Of tie
dangerous Slavery question. Commenced in
ths beginning in the South, by 4 few families
and demagogues, for the purpose Of acquiring
political power, it las outgrown the capabili.
ties Of their cunning; and to-day it will rend
the party in twain, and in November cause its
overthrow and dissolution. Had they re.
mained o. the old Democratic ground, wbicl,
the Repub1 cans now occupy, this quarrel at
Charleston, and its continuation with new
vigor and acerbity at Baltimarc, would never
have occurred. Seduced from. the path in
which duty and patriotism hade them walk,
they pay :the penalty Of their treason. The
election Of LINCOLN, in whom the faith Of tile
Fathers is, will bring all parties back to the
sa{a anchorage from which they never should
have departed.

the Faref bill had posted him in cue favorite
Southern measure (uu1licauon}, not.ithstond.
ing which he forced Ar. Clay to compromise
Of his American system; and now, haring
Texas annexed, be set about remooelling public
sentiment concerning negro slavery, with the
view to the nscendancy Of the South in the
Government. His opinion Of the Democratic
party may be understood from his expression
that "is srds A<tt together Iy The tphtsics rorfr
Of public plundsr." 4 knowledge Of the patty,
however, induced him to attach himself to il,
as more likely to follow his fortunes than a
party governed By other principles. Th:n We
began TO hear Of slavery Us a patriarchal and
divine institution, TINT it WAS the normal condi-
ton Of the negro; nud as il to make sure, some
asserted that sl0rery was the normal condition
Of man generally, and freedom the exception.
Mr.. Calhoun having carefully considered the
matter in political point Of view, determi. Q
on non-intervention-'' mds.frty in in7ctirist"-
that Congress should have nothing to do will,
slavery in the Territories pro or cca, and tant
consequently It was question to be settled BIZ
The Judiciary whenever it should present itself,
Surely The Republicans should feel grateful to
Him " who maEes the wrath Of man to praise
him = for now We see The Southern e1tremista
unwilling TO wait the developments Of mas.
tsrly inactivity" {althougl they say the Supreme
Court hare intmated m opinion IN their favor),
have in their wrath den.nded the acknowledge
mcnt Of the existence Of the power Of Congress
to protect and regulate slavery in the Terri
tories, and, with their always subserEient Free
Ssats allies, hare passed in the United States
Senute a series Of pro-s!averg resolutions, 1ro
Of which are as follows:
"4th- Re<o'r<d, That neither Congress nor d
Territorial Legislature. whether By direct leeis-
laton Or legislation Of an Indirect and unfriendly
character, possess power to anuul or impair tue
constitutional right Of any citizen Of The United
States To take his slave property into the com.
mon Territories, aud there hola and enjoy the
same while the Territorial condition remains.
5!h. Asoieed, That If experience should at
any time prove that the Judicial and Executive
authority do not possess means to insure ado
quase protection to constitutional rights in q
Territory. and If the Territorial Government
| should iail or refuse to provide the necessary
remedies for this. purpose. it will be the duty Of
Congress 10 supply such deficiency"
| Thus the Issue of extending negro slavery
into the Territories is fairly made before the
country, those who are opposed to It are Re.
publicaus, those in favcr are oppositionist, no
matter under what spectoua name or title IT.
iayed; for Squatter Sovereignty is but bobby
that has served its purpose by placing its ad.o-
cate IN Office, and like al temporary humbugs,
it. il now disowned by many Of its former
friends. When it is recollected that Ill these
