THE New DEMOCRATIC POSITION
The New York World of last Tn uredsy
explicitly defines its new position in the
following words: p.
"When the South entered upon this
war, they deliberately exposed their slave
property to the pcriIs and vicissitudes Of
a military contest, and they must take
the consequences. The Democratic par
ty of the North steadfastly holds to the
same principle of non intervention which
it has always insisted upon as the true
constitutional doctrine. AS it would not
interfere to destroy or cripple slavery,
though disappearing it, SO neither will it
intarfere tn save slavery from the. conse.
quence to which its own friends have
exposed it."
