, ; The Breaett Widening•
Many men who at heart cherish Free-Soil
principles, have hitheito - adhered, to the or
ganizalion that claims, the , name_ of N ntion,al
Democr l acy, in the ;hope that that party
would at last retrieve!, its _character and yin-
dicate its'ititle to tiO #lorious" name it bears.
We would ask such,deliberately to stiriey
the preSentstate of plublic affairs; and then
judge whether thkre are any grounds on
which toy base suclia hope. The law opening
Kansas e nd .Nebraska to slavery receive d .
the emphatic condemnation of tho people of
the North, without much distinction of party.
Subsciquant events have only. increased the
OppositiOn to that.measure and the 'false and
deceptive doctrine it is based upon. . The
violationHf the .most sacred private right!'
and of the limdamental, principles of ail free
government Which have followed each other
in such lipid succession in Kansas, only \ the ~
more foi l eibly demonstrate in the.eyes of the
peOple.tbe iniquitous and dangerous character 1
'of the Causas-Nehraska bill. ,But the so
called D,emocralic leaders stand diametrical- i
. i
iy oppo 4 ed to the mass of Northern then
with regard to that measure. Not only was.
the . whole party machinery set at Work, in;
the hands of the Adtninistration with neck
atnpled Zeal, to for* the bill. through
[-
Con
gress, but ever sinee,l l
the State Conventions,
public speeches, and newspapers of the -party
show a ..ettled &termination to adhere to
and sustain it at all hazards. Nothine• else
could have led to the selection of Riehardson,
4
a denighface of the DOuglas' breed, who was
the leadina b champion of the Nebraska bill in .
thellouse ' as the candidate "for the Speaker

before tote country sol plainly that it Cannot

Cured by a zealous - Advocacy of "Southern

- 107 Francis P. Blair, who ,edited the
Washington G/ob?'when it was the organ of
GeneralJacksen's Administration, has recent , -
ly *written a letter in which he - gives his
hearty. and decided adherence .to the policy
and principles of the great Republican party.
In his letter he shows that Cortgresia has the
the poier to legislate far the Territories, a
power" that was -never doubted till the new
dcietrine grew out of Presidential aspirations ;
that the decision of the people by electing a
Preildent opposeate these innovations would
put amend to . them; that every triumph of
the Slave - Power increases the danger—ev-.
try surrenderrre of the Freo Stites "invites int
vaeioni Imd that '-differences of opinion on
questions of policy, on constitutional con
straction, on modeii of administration, - may
welli*merged to unite ,tnen' who belieVe
that nothing but concert of action on the part
of thoSe "who would arrest the spread of
Slavery, can resist thiz , rawer of the combi
nationcnow: embodied to make it embrace
continent
the front ocean to ocean."
Retnernber the „mart who expresses these
sentiments is an Old Jackson Det(Mcrat,
..
native of Kentucky, and now a resident of a_
Slave l §tate! As the Tribune says, he is en
titled to the thanks and • respect .of every
friend of Freedomt'.

the mostsysteinatie eilbrt ,of the kind has

from Germany to Texas. -It has expended
