The Latest ManiSesto 81 the Religious
and Philosophical Instructors Of the
Revolutionary Republican Party-An
Disguise Thrown O@-The Reign OF
Terror Openly Proclaimed.
We give in another column the manifesto of
Rev. Theodore Parker to the anti-slavery and.
revolutionary republican party, Of which some
two hundred thousand have already been cir
culated in the Central and Northwestern States
from one of the treason shops in this city.
This reverend rufian is one Of the religious
and philosophical instructors, as Seward is one
of the political instructors, Helper one of the
moral instructors, and John Brown one Of the
practical instructors, of tactics in the aboli-
ionized republican party. In the pulpit, as
well as on the rostrum, he and others have
been urging on their affiliated republican lead
ers till they have brought the party full and
fast into the arms of the abolitionists. Seward
proclaims the waging Of an "irrepressible
conflict" till the last slave has ceased
to work in the cotton, sugar, tobacco
and rice fields of the South. Helper,
a renegade agrarian from North Carolina,
announces that the aboltionized republicans
are determined to carry their ends, "peaceably
or by violence" no matter what consequences
may follow; and if the Southern whites do not
like these they may 60 elsewhere, which senti-
ment is endorsed and commended by sixty.
eight republican members of the last Congress,
forty Of whom are members of the present one.
John Brown carries out the holy text with
pike and gun, and the Tribune implores the
party not to permit bis epitaph to be written
until not single slave shall exist in the valleys
of Virginia.
Some of the republicans who still cling to the
party are endeavoring to shirk these doctrines
and to avoid the issue with the conservative
and common sense impulses Of the. people.
But the facts are indelibly fastened upon them,
and cannot be removed. There stand Stewards
brutal and bloody speech at Rochester, Help
ers incendiary book endorsed by the republi-
can members of Congress, the republican
apotheosis of John Brown as martyr and q
saint, and now we have one of their philoso.
pbical thinkers throwing of all disguise, and
giving us the logical formula through which
the republican party is led from admitting the
equal right Of the negro to the assertion Of
the duty Of the white man, and finally to its
exercise, to murder every STAKEHOLDER who
resists the black republican theories. For
the printing and circulation of these doctrines,
treason shops are established in New York,
and the republican party is called upon to con-
tribute; and 1t does 80 in such manner that
we find the names Of Cassius M. Clay and David
Dudley Field, Francis P. Blair, Jr., and Edgar
Ketcham; Governor Morgan, of New York,
and Lewis Tappan, Thurlow Weed and Horace
Greeley, John Sherman and Hinton R. Helper,
with many others, ostentatiously paraded to-
gether az givers, endorsers and recommenders
of the installation of the revolutionary reign of
terror and blood.
To make the fact that the republican party is
completely abolitionized, and that it accepts
that condition, the republican members of the
present Congress have for month chung to
and voted for John Sherman as Speaker of the
House, mainly on the ground that he is the rep
resentative man there of the Seward eirre-
pressible conflict the teachings of Helpers
book, and now, we may add, of the philosophy
cal postulate by Rev. Theodore Parker of the
abolition republican doctrines. They are in a
minority, and cannot elect him; but the majo-
rity, consisting of democrats, selfstyled anti
Lecompton men, remnants of the old Know
Nothing party, and debris of the old wing
party, are so taken up with their own petty
and personal feuds, that they lose sight Of the
great national issue at stake, and refuse to
unite on o national man. Some Of the anti
Lecomptonites have given way so far to their
personal spite that they have already sold them
selves to the revolutionary republican party
for share in the Clerkship of the House.
The election of Sherman as Speaker will be
the first step in the Inauguration of the revolu-
tionary reign Of terror in all the South, the
only end of which will be. blood, blood, and
more blood, split in the North as well as in the
South. Those who wish to save the country
from such terrible ordeal do we'll to oppose
the election of Sherman. They should oppose
it to the end, and let the whole Union see who
are the traitors that shall dare to lend them
selves to the carrying out of the treason and
bloody revolution preached by Seward Wen
dell Phillips, Sherman, Theodore Parker,
Helper, Horace Greeley and John Brown. Let
the conservative men of Congress insist upon
putting on record the name of every man who,
in any way, at this momentous crisis lends his
vote to the election Of Sherman. His election
will mark the beginning of the dire history of
our country, and those names will be recorded
on its pages by the side of those of Benedict
Arnold and Aaron Burr.
