Year: 1859

demons of carnage and death, Murat, Danton
and Robespeirrei There cannot, surely, be
a naturalized American from France here,
who will admit the right of conscription over
him if he chooses to return to that land of
emuets and revolutions. This great issue must
be understood and met 1t is one of dynasty
of interest-of latitude of the physical man
of Northern or Southern dominion over
this continent Let no one be deceived 10y
names. Democracy, in 1872 meant the pro
lection and entire naturalization of our adop
ted citizens Now-it means only the pro-
lection and extension of the slave interest
Those in favor of freedom and free labor
must fight this battle for nationality or it
will never be fought. And our friends and
relations in foreign lands when they come to
mingle their fortunes with ours will have to
take the position of Russian serfs, of political
prisoners, of refugees and fugitives. The
State sovereignties must speak out, the dy-
nasty must be changed, or there will be no
relief, The South is like a spoiled wife, that
has long worn the breeches, and has had all
the men at work in and around the kitchen
for her, instead of upon the farm for her hus
band She will of course fret and storm some
while dropping back to her proper place in
the establishment. But, she will do better
after it is over, under the the protection Of her
husband. than she has ever done, managing
for herself


The hour has ind ed come for the North
to go strongly and uncompromisingly to
work. AS the relation of fraternity and lib
erty is superior to patriarchy and servility,
or monarchy and subjectiveity, so this conti-
nent, dedicated by our fathers to freedom
and the humanitarian progress of the white
race must not be diverted from its manifest
destiny by the feudal tyrants of Europe, nor
to crafty the selfish Incidence and ease of
100000 slave masters upon our own domain.
1t would be far better that this continent
should purchase every slave and send them
back to Africa, where God planted them, and
pension their owners, than that this land,
blood bought by the sons of freedom and the
votaries of liberty, should be retrograded
into "A land of slaves and denizen of serfs.


VorING will accomplish this object Com
planning, words of TRADE and abuse effect no
thing. These are the weapons of the pas
sions, not of the reason-of men with more
combativeness than causality. Mr.. Buchanan
has but acted in good faith to his secret
| pledges to the South, that procured his nom
ination; Instead of keeping his open pledges
to the North that accomplished his election.
Let us look next time to the source ofthe nom
nation. 1t will he an unhiling index to the
policy of the Administration that shall fol-
low. There are plenty of Northern men yet
who are willing to float into tie White
House upon cotton bales. All we really
need to accomplish the destinies of this coun-
try is Popular Sovereignty Let the people
not the South--have the sovereignty of all
questions of their domestic polity, and in
due time this continent will be all that our
sires of the revolution desired-a home of
freedom for their posterity and the asylum
of the oppressed from the tyrants of the old
world-"the land of the free and the home
of the brave" BED Rock.
