WENDELL PHILLIPS ON THE DEMOCRACY.
Everything waa breaking, and at last the
great democratic party had broken too. Zap
plause She found out that slavery had a
right everywhere. She hated the republican
motto, Freedom national, slavery sectional"
She had her motto, slavery everywhere"
and the counterpart was Democratic party
nowhere" Laughter and appause.) 1t re-
minded him of the story told by the eastern
traveller, of bear in Northern Asia, who
went into the woman's hut, when she
had just taken off the boiling kettle, and
smelling around with his nose, he touch
ed it to the hot iron. Indignant at the offense,
offered to his nervous system, the bear clasped
the kettle. The more he clasped it the more
it burned him, but the more it burned him the
more he yelled and the tighter he Rugged it
and so he died. Now, the more the democratic
party clasped slavery the more slavery ruined
the democratic party, and the more it ruined
it the more it yelled and the tighter it clasped
it in its embrace; and it would die with the
hot doctrine in its arms. lGreat laughter and
