celebrated . 'Ordinaned prohibiting
slavery in all idle territory north-west
of the Ohio river. This immense to . r"
ritoryhas since been erected into fivo
flotnishing-' free State's—a , living in
stance of the wisdom which saved
them fiom the blighting influences of
oppressitM. The first Congress Which
asSeMbledunder our present Consti

this the seal of approbation
.Was put
to the:policy which propased ta . limit
the institution of Slavery within its
-then boundaiieii both by these who
carried the Revolution successfully
through and those who pit in opera
tion our Republican form of Govern
men t
To this policy of the non-extension
of . Slavery, Tethered honorable by .
those trho"instituted it in the forma-
tion of the - gormument, - ire Propose •
to return. The•people of the North,
in 1820,100 k a resolute stand in its
favor, and were only driven from it by
fears of diAolution ; but in yielding
paitia]ly to thopressure which envel
oped them, they merely-consented to
the re,cognition of ialavery where it al
rerld.fexisted, exacting, with the full
concurrence of the South, a provision
againit its extension into the free ter
ritory north of the Missouri line.
This provision, adopted under all the
sanctions that could possibly make it
sacred, has, as we, have said, been re
pealed in the passage of the Kansas-
Nebraska bill ; and we are now eon
fronted with a policy entirely different
from that which prevailed when the
Republic.was formed. The determi
nation is now expressed to extend
Slavery all over the territory now in
possession of the general govermnent.,
and so prohibitthe extension of Free
• dom beyond . its present bounds. The
Republican party has been organized
to bring back the government to its
Original policy. Our fathers, in whom
ilWelt the truo spirit of liberty, set
bounds to the institution of Slavery,
and decreed that beyond those lioundi
it should not . pass. They made Free
dom the grand object of a'Republican
government, and devoted to its spr,:ad
the whole national territory then un-
dor their control
The democratic party and its con
federates, in 1855 undertake to reverse
all this, and to make Slavery the con
trolling interest of the government, de
voting to its use and benefit the whole
unoccupied territory of the nation, ex
tending from the Mississippi to the
Pacific. Tu which of these policies,
fellow citizens, will you sub Scribe? If
to that of 'Washington and Jefferson
and their Worthy compeers, the Re
publican patty affords you .the only
efficient rallying point:
The Democrat patty is responsible
for the repeal of the • Missouri Com
promise and the passage of the Kansas
Nebraska bill: Under that bill large
numbers of northern mon have sought
•
hothes in the new territory ;• but they
find themselves insulted, abused and
mobbed; their right to settle there (le-
nied ; their privileges as voters de
stroyed by an armed invasion from
Missouri-on the day of 'the election; . .
and a legrslaturo chosen for them:by
the invaders which has since extended
slavery over the territory,' denied the
right of free speech, trammelled the
press, and enacted the punishMent of
imprisonment and death for . theSo who
are ilpposed to slavery. The purpose
is openly avowed to drive them 'from
their 4011105, and prevent northern men
from ever setling there.
The' administration . of President
- Pierce, instead of rebuking these out
rages,. sustains them. Gov. Reeder,
who was iri favor of 'defending the
free Settlers; has -been'''rem'o' ed by

HERE THE DOUGHFACES
The Hunker Senatorial Conf4rees
of this district, met at Smetbport nti
on the 72(Yth ult. Tioga county'waa
not represented. They nominated B.
.D. Hamlin for the Senate, as we stated
last week. Then they appointed -E.
D. Eldred, W. L. Moore, and D. W.
C. James a committee to draft iesolu
tions, who, after due deliberation, re
ported the folloWing choice specithens,
which were unanimously adopted:
Resnircd,-That we are opposed to all secret
soeiedes„ and particularly to the in
to:erant and proscriptive organizat ofliuow
whinffs.
Resurced, Th it the agitation of the . sub j 'ect
of slavery, is productive of evil:and only evil,
and that we will res.st all agitation, in- what
ever (parer it may arise.
Resolrrd, That the lion. B. D. Hamlin
having been tried and found honest and ca
paltle—:he true. J effetNouian standard—he
mitten:lv deserves and shall receive our uni
ted anti hearty support.
This, men of Potter county, is• the
true picture of Old Line Democracy
every where—abject submission to the
rule of slav - ery, StringfelloW and his
Kansas ruffians could not ask..for - more
efficient allies than 'Hunker Democra
cy furnishes in every county in :the
free States. Let slavery subjugate
every foot of free territory, - and keep
silent is the doctrine of the - se resolu
tions, and of Old Line Democracy.
Is•it possible that honest freemen will
acquiesce in such servile sentiments?
We cannot believe it. •
