FIRST Crack in the Iceberg.

wkxDsLI PHrLLrPs, the great Abolition era
tor, in speaking Of the Republican party, in
1856, said:
aThere is merit in the Republican party.
It is tn. first sectional party ever organized in
the country. 1t is the North arrayed against
the South. The first crack in the iceberg is
visible. You viii yet hear it 60 with . crash

fulness that makes every patriotic heart grow
chill with amazemens and despair.
In 1856 the Republican party took its sec
tional position. 1t nominated candidates for
President and Vice-Prssidsnt, both from the
North. The main plank in its platform was
denunciation of those 'twin relics of barbar-
ism, slavery and polygamy." It was the
North arrayed against the South. It was the
North attempting to get q national verdict of
the American people against slavery AZ it ex-
lists in the southern States, and to fasten on
the South stigma that would draw down ON
it the opprobrfum of the civilized world. The
party failed, but, nothing dispi:ited, they went
to work with renewed energy in 1859. 1t again
nominated candidates for Presidsnt and Vice.
President, both from the North. II was the
North again arrayed against the South. It
was q purely sectional organisatien, gotten
up to conquer the Soath-to deprive it Of all
/ power or influence in the General Government,
and to limit slavery within its present bounds,
/ by depriving the South Of every acre Of the
common territory. IL was successful, and the
first crack in the iceberg, that commenced in
1856, ia now, in 1851, going with crash
through the center. ~

elect Of one half Of the States, appeared
In that City, on the morning Of the 23rd,
disguised in q scotch plaid and long mill

immense sensation.

sealing himself at Washington. The las;
