TWO INTERPRETATIONS,

The Cincinnati platform has teen regarded
Objectionable because susceptible Of two very
different interpretations. The National Lr
teHiyeacer in a recent article upon the Chcag,
platform, intimates that the same objection NAV
De there urged. We quote from the article
The seventh resolution of the series denounces
as novel and dangerous political heresy the doc

res slavery into any or all of the Torrtori,s.' To
say that the Constitution OF the United States car.
res' any thing into the Territories is little better
than confusion cf terms, for, as the Territories
are subject to the just supremacy tf Congress, il
is obvious that they must receive their law from
the National Legislature, acting under the Cuns,i
tuition, and by virtue Of which it is Competent
either to tolerate prohibit slavery according to
the wise discretion Of Congress- as xercised in the
earlier and better days, when a wise discretion
was not rendered impossible by the conflicts Of
sectional passion. If the condition for its nor.
mal exercise no longer exist, the power of Gun
gress over the subject Of slavery in the Territories
still remains the same as it was in 1889 and 1893
and 1904 at which successive dates our fathers

I'VE have evidence which is constantly accumu-
lating, thar the slave trade is actively pushed BY
men in this country in spite Of our laws and the
vigilance Of those who are set to prevent IT, It is
supported by party at the South who believe it
to be right and expedient; it is carried on by men
at the North whose god is gold, and who would
plunder heaven itself, as they defy hell to make
money. We must concentrate public sentiment
against the men, South and North, who are in ia
vor of this accursed traffic. and especially we must
be on our guard against the counsel OF those who
tell us there is no danger Of the trade being re-
opened
These are wholesome words of the Observer. 1t
is indeed high time that good men were thorough
y aroused to the strength and significance Of these
dsgraceful retrograde movements. Public senti-
ment be set right and must be brought to bear
strongly not against these vioaors of the plaincst
laws Of Col and man, for they can be reached
only by the severest measures, but upon ii ose

thropic institution, under whose humauzlug and
Christiunizing influences it would be good deed
to tring by force as many Africans as the couu-
try could hold have embodened these Northern
pirates to greater activity, and encouraged the
Southern judiciary to throw around them the pro-
lection Of their ermine.
The land is beginning to groan under the bur-
den Of this intolerdbie inquity. The enemy is
coming in like a fJod. Even conservative jour
mas can not hold their peace. 1t is a crisis in
which neutrality is impossible. and silence On the
part OF those who ought to speak, criminal. In
the name of the gospel, in the name Of the latter
half of the nineteenth century, In the name OF the
hourly pected advent of the millennium in .he
name of humanity, we protest against indifference
or slackMess on the part Of any calling themselves
in their opposition to this returning
shallow OF heathenism, falling right athwart our
midday Of liberty and our religion.
