The speeches reached his ear through Ithe'

At a late hodr, a youth just nie into the

out into the line of my Vision, stroli'editiis 1

is not a man left of that: hellish crew.; i They
live only in darkness. They can't len..

emanate from my triacendent intellect they
flee away and die: Before the flood ofi . int+sri
light which I shed in upon heir Midnight .
Itconclaves, they dwindled dow and eoseitte
exist. But,, gentlemen , lam finder the pain

ksquire Small threw himself 'beck in his

put his thumbs in the arm-holes of i his vest,
and, looking 'around with an 'air' of . Or
feet confidence in hii own sagacity, proceeded
to my : " Mr. ;Shanghai, you are correct.
My friend Ciiptain Brag was not to •biaine
for our defeat last fall, He was on the right
side and advociited the right principles. ].IIi .
advocated thbse; principles better than any
body else' could do it; because . every body
else lacked the, ability. Captain_Brag - is,an
Anti-Nebraska Democrat. I have had fre
quent conversations with him upOn. that sitb
jeo, and have had ample opportunity to as
certain his real sentiments. He - is very
strong Free Soil:. So is his friend Govelinor
Bigler. ' I kne*The`was opposed to the Ne
braska bill fixan the fact that IMw a Itier
'of his , in which he stated thatif lie had drain
up that bill be would not have repealed, the
Missouri Compromise.- I' Voted with the
Democratic pafty last fall, knowing it to be
the only Anti-Slavery party: In the country.
I have -always been Free-Soil in 'sentiment
and 'always refused to.act with any party
that was not ont-spoken. sOainst slavery.: ,
, t
was an Abolitionist until ' the :Democratic
party endorsed the Fugitive Slave bill and
Compromise measures; then I began serious
ly to think of abandoning the Abolitionitits,
but. did not join the Democratie party until '
it repealed the Missouri ComProinise.. NOW
I am in the party, you see, where I can carry
out my Free-Soil principles. I don't sap
pose there was a Democrat in
, 1 this '
county
w
last fall who as not opposed to, the Nebras
ka bill. ' Indeed, I am coufident, there was
none, jaging,from certain information I re
ceived from my reliable friend Captain Brag.
The party was a perfect unit upon that point,
and would have tarried the elections 14 !an
overwhelming majority if it had not been for
the Know-Nothings. They are now enm-
Pletely broken up; and are fast dying outh--
Befgre election they will be all gone, and-an
easy victory is 'ours. Gentlemen, don't
trouble yourielves about the futUre—leive
•
that to Captain Brag." . -
Captain Brig, feeling the uncomfortable
.
,ness of a cold stove for a seat, arose again to
edify the. faithful. " I am glad my motives
are appreciated. I have only the good of; he
party at • heart. Keep the party together,
and we are safe: divide, and all is lost' I
sill) indicate- I to you the course I have pursu
ed, since election.' I have redoubled my ef
forts in the cause of freedom: , have written
whole pages of newspaper, on the Free-goil
not • appointed
of see him,! bat
irn midle this
question. I have showed more — lit dignition
at the outrages upOn the rigbts.of the 744;rth
than any Free-Seiler is able to do. By this
means I have regained the good will of ; the
Anti-Nebraskai Democrats. ~They are; all
with me no*. They have abandoned the
ICnow-Nothing Lodges and Are fighting With
me under the , banner r
of freedom. On' ;the
other hard, I have made a dead strike .at
Wilmot,. He is the leader of the Anti-
Nebraska faction in this county ; wit*nt
him they tin do nothing. My effort ihas
been to destroy their confidence in hini.—
Destroy b no, and the Free•Soflers are as
sheep witiput a shepherd, and , will soon re
turn to the Democratic party. My efforia to
destroy Wilinot's influence have been re.
markably kucerful. No one
,''speaks ottani
now wit out p sneer. The people, alwleys
&flowing some leader, now look up to in for
direction. I am now the most prominent
FreeSoiler in the county, and, they will all
follow my lead. As Soon as I had Wilinot

Mr. William . W. Vllk o f Flushing, Know.

Island, has published ft letteri especially in
tended for 'the meridian Of - North Carolina,
in which, with a glow 1-30 f Style Worthy of that
Carolinian blood of w h ich he boasts,he repels
the charge that thel hinoty-Nothing party/ is
tainted with the sentiment of •Preedorii. It
is. true he is compelled to; admit that in Alas- .
saehusetts and sonic 4their Northern States
its members are not friendly fp slave-catching
or tu.the extension of§la:verX over free Ter.,.
ritory - ; but New ',Yo r k, he ;proudly lavers,
''has determined to' knliw no 7 .lerth, no South,
no East, no West.' - Whittelifer other States
may do, here is a ft-14d that the slave-breed
ing Oligarchy will find. Eilthful to the end in
the support of their! schenies. He thinks.
seriously, so he tells
4 s, 6 : that.the American .
Party is sound upon t e Slavery questiOn and
t
all other sectional 1 s ues. :Its platform of
politics is eminently onciliatory and eonser
vative. and should , e sati s factory. to our
-brethren of the South' --- ;
Now we will admit fur the Sake ofargument
that the opinion of Mr. Valk„ih perfectly cor
rect as respects the know-N othings of New-
York, though even tie cannot pretend that
the Order ran con:inland, a ;majority of the
elector* of the State. i i Here - it, is true that
the Order - is in the Vandli of pro-slavery poi - -
,iticians and office seekersi who never having
got office otherwise hhveetribraced the .new
party .desperately as ihe4ole chance ofseat
ing !their greedy ambition at' the public crib..
In New-York National KnoW7NOthingism was
conceived and brought foith, its last great ef
fort having been theliiiitiatien of Mr. Fill

hibit Slavery in every territory under its con
trol, but otherwise to• de r ': eVerything; which
can tend to make`treedcim national and'
Slavery- sectional.' orlial it any strength ,
in /Brine where the State Council of the Or
der has jest passed 'such resolutions as the
following : I • 1,
' Resolved, That the Onclarittiori of Independence
the cone and tenor of thqconititution, the Ordinance
of 17r, the words and deeds:of:the founders of this
Republic, all indicate th a t our forefathers intended
that Slavery should be twcti ()dal,. not national--tem
porary, not permanent. 1. :. 1. ~----- i ,
' Resolved, That we solemnly rotest ast the
repeat of the Missouri_ eitropromisc—the paBsage of
the Nebnotita-Kansas hilt; and the Fugitive Rive Law
as violations of the rights of the 1 Free States,. and ,
tending to the destruction of ihti free institutions of
our country. 1 ! ! '- t
' Resolved, That we fledge ontselvekto use our
utmost exertions to free our :. , TatiOttil Territories from
the curse of Slavery, and thatwe Will never

Slave State to this Unioni, f 4,
' Remobyd, That any attempt to commit our Order
in the Free States to the iidvanceithent of the interests
of Slavery—to ignore it las a political - question—to
stamp it as a ride toque—lat. - to enjoin silence upon us
in respect to its evils. and encroachments, deserves
and receives our sternist dlea#prebation and dia..
sent.' i " i-
These propositions are; rather too strong,
to be cited by Mr . . Valk . but we apprehend
that they do no more than iexpress,the feel
ings of the mass of ales who! have seen fit to '
join the Order in all' i the free' States, with the
single exception of NewlYork, and , perhaps

'' 4 13RATTLESIRO, May 29,"1855.- -
A misunderatandin4 having takm place in
the American party of Vermont, Senator
Wilson of. Mass. was s c ent for to act's peace-

mised by stating that in his opinion the time,
had arriyed when - all the riominations - of 'the ;
party should be madel and voted .
openly;
The time for secrecy as past - voted-.
object)
Of the American party was-to infuse, vitality ••
into the effete political] organizations. It was ,
not intended.to.restram immigration, nor tO',
draw downAis Republic-from the lofty 'lace
sition which it maintains as the asylum for all
throppressed of Euroipe. Our shores should,
be ever free to him Who by the labor of in
dustry seeks an improved fortune, whatevert
may be his nationality or religious
But the American perky intends to - provide]
against and• even to resent
,the Conduct of Eu-,
ropean Governments lin sending - here ship.=,
loads of paupers and Felons • it is intended to .
prevent the organization of` ' adopted citizens -
in distinct bodies acc4rding to their various
nationalities, which would influence the polit
ical movement's of this country. This, said
the orator ' America .Mall -not in the future ,
witness the liumiliatirig necessity one- of
her greatest glories s t umping ,entry and
becomieg enrapturediwith the s • t.etness of
the, German - accent, and the ric•ness of the
broad Irish brogue.' 1 , It May la: ,
. that to at
tain this end the lawspfnatuntli, tion should
be made more stringent, ornt least that the;
-.existing laws should be more conscientiously
carried into effect. deplored that _'the
Legislature, or his awn.- State should hive
passed the amendmedt to the Constitution ex
cluding naturalized ettixens from office in the
Commonwealth.: I , •
Such were the aims of the American par
ty as laid down by tle senator • then, speak
ing of its duties*, he declared ,thrit which was
paramount to all othCrs, was the taking.bold
ly and
_decidedly ant issue upon the great
qtiestiOn ofbumanityy of m.orals,
,and of the
unstained glory of the Republic. The coun- t 1
try - was involved• in a question which had not'
been.equalled in impiartance since the estab-'
lishnaent of.the Consiitution, and it behooves
-the Arderican party Ito give to it - the onlj
• true direction and solution : tha is to declarl....'
Slavery sectional and Liberty national ;. to
abolish the institution wherever it exists ,un-,
der cover of the Federal 'Constitution and
Governinent. The States having it may for
the present enjoy it; but not a-foot of sons
to be conceded to it. State rights Wilt _thee
be held inviolate-7but the Fugitive Slave
bill, and the Nebraska infamy shall be l erased
from our- laws. The . American party shall
continue to look, for union with the Anti= :
Slavery feeling athe country, for to that nu-.
ion inight.be atiributed the success of the last
elections. in the North aid West. The bon
' orable Senator rejoiced at the recent defeat _
iu the Virginia election as a lesson' to the.,
American party with whom to unite—not to,
toady to the Slave Oligarchy but to be truly
democratic in principle.
_He denied the state
ments made by an obscure K. N. politician
in New York," that the party Was not (=cern
-ed in the question of Slavery. •
Such statements were tantamount Aci say- -
jug that Arnericatia were not concerned in the
cause of humanity or national honor. He re
pudiated with contempt the ideas that mon
sters•such as Atchison, Stringfellow, and their"
gangs should be regarded as brethren. In
Conclusion 'he earnestly adjured the„people of
Vermont to remain true to: themselves and
to their convictions--terappe,ar united in the
National Councils of the State and in - Wash-,
ington as a strong phalenx in the defenee of
human rights and liberty I The America&
party deserved an ignominious end if it - failed
in performing these most important duties of
its mission. - I
