Then Y Tribune of the 10th speaking of the prob
abs complexion Of the nexI Congress notices the
election of BLAIR in Missouri and says "COl Roll
11Ns from the same State is a BELL man. but received
essry Republican uOe in his district and H certainly
eUiace no factiOus hostility to The administration that is
ODE" that is in the estimation Of the Tribune, the
2 ( I-lNooIS administrator 6k4F
Such is Bell-sm in Missouri. Good enoushor bad
enough to get the vote of every Black Republican
in RoILN's district Good enough or bad enough to
- etthe mass of the Black Republican vote at the late
election for Governor the special instance and re-
quest of the Black Republican candidate. Good
enough or bad enough to vote for FRANK BLAIR for
the next Congress.
In connection with these facts let it be remember
ed that SEWARD said in the u S. Senate:
"a IaS ness s'Oics issues from yoer O'0n region,
against Jour further persistence IN this mad enterprise
I0f e9endag slauery and ddmonishes yolbdt must
and roiR foil The cohorts gathering FROM THE
SoUYg the men of moderation and conservatism aoho
as taey hare HERETOFORE MODERATED IN FAVOR OF
SLAVERY AGAINST FREEDoN, l1M nolo De obliged IN
consistency to their Just and SoeA established character
and their patriotism TO MODERATE
OF FREEDOM AND RISE UP UNANIMOUSLY
AGAINST SLAVERY"
eel Let il be remembered that the notorious BURIN-
CANE who declared che wond have Judges who be-
lieved in Higher Law antisavery Constitu-
ton, an anti-slavery Bible and antsavery God"
=. said in reference to the Kansas question:
"Sir, it was proud day to me when heard the
speech of the venerable Senator from Kentucky,
Mr.. Crittenden. The melody of his voice and his
patriotic accent still sound in my was glad
to hear him denOgnce fraud; was glad to hear him
stand for the truth"
al also felt proud to hear the speech of the dstn-
guished Senator from Tennessee. Mr.. BELL
Let it be remembered that the n. Y. Tribune,
short time before Mr.. BELL left the Senate, said:
"He is as robust and hale to-day as when he beard
ed and conquered the old lion, ANDREW JACKSON in
his den and TeSOle and ready to do service tchen
he brarey encountered The WHOLE SOUTH
upon the Nebraska Blu, AND CARRIED TERROR INTO
THEIR RANKS The wisdom and experience of man
eminent and pure are OF no ordinary value at
this time when the country Is convulsed with the
Of faction and the spirit Of SugaiOn abroad,
threatening to Overshadow new land Of promise,
Kansas Let us hope they will be long exercised
in the Senate or in higher capacity, where the
country may equally enjoy their advantage"
I'll Letit be remembered that the New York Tribune
in 1855 when discussing the nomination of Pres
Dental candidate by its party said
Most certainly we should prefer original Re
pubhcsn--GOv. Seward Gov. Chase for instance
but shall heartily and zealousy support one
like JOHN BELL, Edward Bates John NJ. Bolts, |
provided we well assured that his influence, his
patronage, his power, if chosen President, will be
used to extend slavery but to cOnfne it within
the States that see fit to uphold It."
5 Let it be remembered that soon after the defeat Of
the Kansas Lecompton Constitution by the votes of
SEWARD, and BELL and CRITTENDEN and DOUGLAS and
others who acted with Them that HORACE GREELEY
CRrTrENDEN dinner by letter of June 9th, 1858,
in which they say:
"The undersigned have observed through years, !
with profound and increasing admiration, your en-
Ia nently patriotic. statesmanlike and truly national
course IN the councils of our common country, sig
nazed by devotion to the institutions, not of sec
ton merely but Of our whole Union, and especially
in a late critical and dangerous emergency, in which
perilous agitation has been Gained and prOba- !
bility of civil arrested in good part through
your wisdom, justice and moderation"
LetIt be remembered that correspondent Of the |
New York Times SEwARD's organ, in discussing |
the probabilities as the Chicago nominee, said
ssThe candidates prominent before the Opposition,
are Senator Cameron Senator Seward VIM l.; Day |
ton Senator BELL. Senator Crtenden, Gov. Banks, |
Abraham Lincoln, Jno. C. Fremont"
And in confirmation of all this, the writer in the |
Times proceeded TO detail conversation between !
several prominent Republicans" who stated:
That Notwithstanding they personally in /
favor Of Seward yet that it would be more polite /
nominate a Southerner, that 1t might not be /
said il a sectional struggle for power. 1t lodS
fifhsr lHTed thGt BELL Of Tennessee, 1cdS the most
GuGldble candidate for them
Let it be remembered that HORACE GREELEY in
his speech the Black Republican Convention held
in Ossawattomie, Kansas May 18th, 1859, said
al shall be ready and willing to support such
as JOHN BELL, or John NJ. Bolts, or DIETER
still) Edward Bates for the neyt President. upon
distinct and open understanding that he WELD the
power with which he may thus be entrusted, not to
extend and forfy slavery but to limit and restrict
the States whereby 1t is still cherished
Let it be remembered that the n. T. Tribune in
an authoritative srticle on the 25th july 1852
said: #ia
The great body of the Republicans are, doubt
willing to cooperate in the election of a President
with four classes Of the opposition:
l. Those tcAO originally opposed the repeal Of the Ms
souri, Compromise and the passage Of The hansas-Ne-
Grqsloa biz and are still hostile 10 those measures.
