- We hear from some of the incur
able advocates Of that mental darkness in
which the word Democracy means Human
bondage and nothing else, earnest appeals
TO Republicans to forsake their political
creed and become Pro Slavery men.
Do these besotted fools expect Repub-
licans to forget that Slavery has set on
foot most wicked conspiracy against the
life Of thu. Nation A conspiracy still far
from overcome and suppressed
Do they expect Republicans to become
the friends Of the "sum of all villainies, !"
when the Republic is still struggling for
its very existence with that thrice-ac.
cursed institution
Il is vain, gentlemen Slavery is doom
ed. Neither your tears nor your entreaties
can save it. Every victory Of our arms
gives it death blow and no sincere Re.
publican is base enough or reasonable
enough to come to its rescue-New York
