We now propose to show, from speeches and

inga Of this party and its leaders have led to
just the programme laid down above. As GAR

abolition Of slavery" We ask every candid

Governor BAEKs, Of Massachusetts, who was
elected Speaker Of the House of Representa-
tves 10 1856, by the Black Republicans, now
ONE Of Mr.. LIEooLN's Major Generals, In
speech delivered In Maine, In the preceding
year, said: ' |r .7

SENATOR WADE, OF OHIO.
Ina speech at mass meeting 10 Maine, in
1855, the same at which Mr.. BANKS spoke, Sen.
ator WADE, of Ohio, gave utterance to the fol-
lowing reasonable sentiments: 40
There was no freedom at the South for either
white or black; and he would strive to protect
the free soil of the North from the Same blight.
Ing curse. There was really no Union 6stwsen
the North sad South; and he beiieved no two
nations upon the earth entertained feelings of
more bitter rancor toward each other than
these two sections Of the Republic. The only
salvation Of the Union, therefore, was to be
found in divesting u entirely from ell taint of
slavery. There Was no Union In the South -
Let us have Union, or let us sweep away this
remnant which we call Union. gofor o
Union where all men are equal, or for no Union
at all, and go for right. H.. .l
And, as If to mark their approval Of such
doctrines, the Black Republicans of Ohio, the
very next year, reelected this disunionst to the
Senate Of the United States. His brother, the
Hon. EDWARD WADE, for number Of years,
occupied seat In the House Of Representa-
tives, and We find him, In speech delivered
In the House, Aug. 2, 1856, indorsIng the trea.

quote: ... ..s-.. 81 .e.f

be used as an instrument for the propsg cation Of
human bondage, they cannot be preserved =

ths House Of Representatives, July 30, 1856;
The issue Of all, the reason Of all, the basis
Of all this lies In the simple question, shall
freedom or slavery be the ruling, predominant
feature Of the model Republic of the world
That question can be answered In one way.
Freedom, human, personal freedom, the fulfill
ment of the great sentiment, nthat all men are
created free and equal, and endowed By their
Creator with the inalienable rights Of life, lib
erty and the pursuit Of happiness" will be the
national ruling Of this country for future cen
