A SILLY FARCE
Some timo ago there was a Native American
party in this oounty. Cut months ago it was
entirely used up, a porton of the members leav
ing If, and the balance rolling over into the
Know Nothing party. But an opportunity was
presented to humbug the people a little, so the
Native Amerioane. though nearly all K N.’e,
kept np the form of an organization ns a dielinct
party. They, therefore, hold a County Conven
tion on Wednesday last, and resolved to oopport
the Know Nothing ticket this fall.
Now, that Convention was only a portion of
the K. N.'d rdeolviDg to support their own tick
et. But the design of il was to gull the pooplo
with the idea that thcro was a fusion of two die
tlnot parties for the support of a K N ticket.
Outsiders, it is supposed, will bo deceived by
suoh a silly farce. Probably not one additional
vote is gained to the K N. party by this resolve
of the Native American Convention They were
all K. N.’s before.
And it is remarkable, tjj, that they
to support tbo isfiL.U Know Nothing ticket. a -
though informed by the K N Kieeutive Cora
mittee, that, id regard to ont* of the candidates,
there had been an "irregularity," which, in
other parties, wouid be called a fraud. They
BffalioweJ the whole dose, however, and rcsove
to support that oaudidate, be the manner of Lis
obtaining the nomination what it may.
Bat, that Native American Convention did
some good. Mr. Bhort revealed eorne facte of
interest. He refuses to vote the Kuow Nothing
tioket; la opposed to secret parties ; and says
•ix men made the whole Native American tioket
for the ootire State laot year ' That is the way
n Americans rule America
A SKRIOCB QUESTION
We shall oak a question that wwr bo aeswered
by some ooe, and it may prove a pretty serious
matter to one of the cindidates ou lhe R. N.
tiobet. It is this
Which of iht K N. candidates was it that re •
veaUd the secrets of the ord" last winter, for the
purpose of defeating B. T C. Morgan.
We assert that it was one of the present can
didates of the K. N. party that attended their
meetings again and again, and then gave fat)
information of wbat wan done to those who
could make good uge of it against the secret
party. Tbo K. N.’s soon beoamo aware that
there was a traitor in the oamp, and appointed
a oommiltee of three to search him out. They
could not find hiio, however, and he bos suo*
oeeded in securing from them a nomination to a
valuable oflioo. If that committee Is still try
ing to find tbo mau, we o&n very materially as
sist them In their labors, and shall do so. One
member of that committee iivee iu the Second
Ward, and If be U still auzioua to discover the
man wbo violated his obligations, and revealed
the secrets of his party, he can do so. That
man now looks for the entire support of the
R. N. party to elect Kim to a good office !
Plaoibg Him in a False Posmon. —We ob
serve that the Chairman of the late Whig State
Convention, In making out the Whig State Cen
tral Committe, has put upon It our fellow citi
zen, Edward Campbell, Jr., as the member from
Pittsburgh. This is rather a carious proceed
ing. Mr. Campbell is a Republican in Alle
gheny oonnty, and intends t 0 support tho nom
inee of the Pittsburgh Convention and not tho
gentleman nominated at Harrisburg. I Q the
present mixed oondition of our political ene
mies it wii) soon be hard to tell where they
etand.

Ou Wednesday, of last week, the barn of Mr.
Adam Horn, of North Hantiogdon township,
Westmoreland county, was strack by lightning,
and the building, together with its contents, to
tally destroyed. The barn was large, and filled
with the present year’s crop The house of
fWr. Adam Sbubriob, in Blairsvilte, was entered
by burglars on "Sunday last, whilst tbo family
were all absent at ohurcb, and robbed of abou 1
$250 in gold, eiiver and bank notes, together
with prommissory notes for about $5O, some
other papers, and a small box of homoeopathic
medioine. A youn; man named Christy was ar
rested and committed to jail, on suspioion of be
ing the robber A boy named Cole, residing
in the vicioity of Conneautville, Crawford coun
ty, was bitten several weeks ago by a mad d.g>
and Is now suffering with hydrophobia, and no
hopes are entertained of his reoovery.
Me. Flaneqin.—Below will be found a com
munication addressed to F. C. Flanegin, Esq.,
K. N. candidate for Senator, demanding of him
to define his position on the liquor question at
once, or be eleoted to stay at home by bis indig
nant “ bruddren.” We vouch for it that it was
written by one K. N. and anthoriied by otherß
of the same fraternity. Our oolumns are open
for all such interrogatories; and it won’t do for
tho candidates to try to play possum in these
days.
Here is the letter:
Francis C. Flane<un, Esq :
Sir —Having seen in the Union an inquiry,
signed by David Munn , intimating an inconsis
tency in your declarations to different parties
on the temperanoe question, and Involving
doubts of your sincerity and firmuesa on this
most momentous subject, it beoomea uecossary
for you to define your position, publicly, with
regard to it— distinctly, under your own signature
Wc are bound to vote for you if fairly nomina
ted. But as fraud vitiates every transaction in
business, so it does in polUios: and we cannol
vote for a man charged under a responsible
signature with carrying whisky on one shoulder
and water on the other, unless the charge can
bo refated. As friends of temperanoe wo cannot
vote for oneB&id to be supported by the “liquor
league.” Mast Americans.
That Ticket —From present appearances it
seems likely that the K. N. ticket will have to
be remodelled. The candidate for Prothoootary
will probably be thrown overboard by the Ex
ecutive Committee to morrow. He got, it seem?,
raihor too many votes in certain localities, and
bis case is to be reviewed. It is set down for
trial befvro the High “ Star Chamber” Co&rt to
morrow. He will not even have the benefit of
a public trial The Star Chamber praotioe, that
coet an English kmc b's bead over the water,
will be revived here, an 1 Mr Wilson will proba
bly be shorn of his honors and profits without
the right of appeal, or “benefit of clergy.
Then Mr. Flanogiu'j oaso looms up as a ht
tlo peculiar By a c;mmunicaiion in our col
umns this moruiog it will be seen that be m for
bidden tho privilege of “ carrying wbisk v cn ote
shoulder and water ou the other.”
It is a very pretty fight &s It stauds.

Atchison * Know Nothing
Has it occurred to the Detroit Advertiser and
other Know Nothing popers, that when they as
sail Senator Atchison, of Missouri, they assail
a mbjiber or tubir own PARTY 1 Atchison left
tbe party as long a£o as last winter, and joined
the Know Nothlogs. flis “border league” is
a Know Nothing Lodge, bound by the sane
oaths and governed by the same rules as were
the Know Nothing lodges in Miohigan, to whioh
belonged Bingham, Coe, tbe two Howards, Wal
brige, Waldron, Holmes, and all the members
pf tho administration. Know Noihingism was
the jneans by wbioh Atchison invaded Kansas
and carried the eleotion. The Kansas legisla
ture was an affiliated branch of the Know Noth
ing party. The Demooratio party repudiate
Atohiflon and hifl whole gang of ruffians and cut
throats, in the same manner that it repudiates
the ruffians and oot-throats of L ouisville, and in
same manner that U repudiates Know Nothings
and Know Nothmgism everywhere—in the same
manner that it repudiates both io Michigan.

op THE
Democratic State Ceulrai Committee.
To the People of ( enntylvanxa :
Fellow-Citizeks : —ia the poformanoo of our
duty, we lately addressed you on the subject of
Know Nothingism. Wo warned yon against the
insidious appeals of a party, one prinoiple of
which establishes a religious test for office, a
thing expressly prohibited by the Constitution of
the United Btates, and by that of Pennsylvania.
A party which seeks to praotioally disfranchise
one class of American citizens, because of their
religious creed ; soother class, because of the
place of their birth, and to proscribe a still
more numerous class, because they will not deny
to others tho rights which they olaim for them*
selves. We reminded you that theso States had
been founded by immigrants who fled hither for
self protection from this same persecuting spir
it. That by mutual toleration in matters of re
ligion. and by ao equal participatijn In the com
mon c Lcerus of social life and government,
these rights of each were guaranteed by all;
that to wrest them from any, however weak or
humble, was to substitute might for right, and
thus subvert tho great principles of political
equality, ou which alone rests our common se
curity and general welfare.
That to do this in secret, and under mutual
pledges and oaths, and above all to do it under
the name of Americanism, was to destroy all
confidence in tho capability of men for self
government, to confound looal prejudice with the
virtue of patriotism, to exalt the profession of a
ore.d above the practice of genuine Christianity,
to brine Democratic institutions into contempt,
and to cover their founders with reproach.
If tho rankling hatreds and fieroe fuede, tho
social wrongs and lawless outrages, which havo
characterized this secret party, had been id like
manner occasioned by all others, society itself
could not have existed. Brief, therefore, as has
been ite career, it has convinced every reflecting
man that its tendeocies are counter to the ge
nius of our governments and opposed to tho
teaching of their founders. Wo have, therefore,
seen it overthrown by the Democracy in the
South, and disorgan’Zf' i and broken—or blended
with Abolitionism in tho North. Suoh has hccu
the secession) from its ranks by the deceived
and erring men who joined it, that notwithstand-
abated preteusionsand the attempts made
to liberalize i'o principles, its possession of local
offices and the forlorn hope of political piaoea
aud rewards in lHotl, alone, keep it from utter
aooibilatiou as a National party.
At tho present, therefore, there is more occa
sion to call your attention to another and purely
sectional party, whioh threatens to subvert
the Federal Cjtsstilutioa, and to destroy the
I'tiiou of these States Tne Know Nothing
party —miscalled American —tends to cccasiou
civil discord atnctg neighbors, aod between citi
zens of the same btato. but this eelf styled Re
publican p&r.y. tenia u udi to this the horrors
of a negro ioueui recuuu in the States of the
South, and a civil war between th? ft-Tera! States
of tbit Union.
Wa do not say lout this is tbo design of all or
even the majority of i s m tubers, but we do
j charge that U- be the coly avowed design of some.
1 and those not a few of its Icadt-rs ; and wo fur
ther charge that such is the ciear tendency, and
would be the inevitable result, of its success. It
is in vain f v r its partisans to &ay that they in
tend no ill the question is not one of intention,
it 19 one of practical conduct ; and the princi
j plea of AmcriciiU government and of Gonautu
tional Ur are the sole lea»s by which it must be
irie l We have already Peru tho Legislature of
one State openly and designedly pass an act in
defiance of the Constitution of the United States

when the Governor cf tbit State —and a parti
Mti cf this ury p.iti; -.c’.-rd, aud attempted to

.u the Convention uf thi-t wbc-le party, a Rever
end member of it pnh’ic'y advocated the de

judged him lo be wrcogf'P’y imprisoned If those
things are now dono ana ad re cal ed. by such men
and m each places, both under color of law and
I iq avowed defiance of it, who will or can assure
ihc public that tdt-y would etop there' or that
j othir—and the il. hi fatal— violations of the law
i would not tf by other men and mobs,
; ar.J in other places ‘ When men ihue disregard
I the Constitution and laws <. f their country, and
I neek ?■* together one section of tb-.-
• Union, that they may the more successfully over
' awe or subdue the other, tney reduce the whole
question to one betweon force and law, Union or
disaoicn, domestic tranquility or civil war.
U is absurd for men to prate about liberty,
while at tho very same timo they are enccur
' aging rcsieiauoe to law There oan be no
\ noerty without law, and thero i« not and cannot
t be any law of this land higher than the Consti
tution of the United Stales. Wbutercr, there
fore, may be the pretences put forward by the
Abolitionists, or wnr-tever rosre dcoeptive name
they may choose t > assume, aod arr»y them
selves under, tho real and »oie issue will be the
I same : it will be that party--a violated Consti
j fition and Jisuuicu t.n tho ono bile, and th*
Democratic party and tbo Constitution and Union
as they are on tbo other side; chooso ye be
tween thorn : Even if you would, ye* you can
not now bat ohooee between these two While
the Whig party existed, whatever may havo
been its follies or its faults, yet neither Clay nor
Webster, n.r us other great leaders, nor the
trao men of Us rank and file, would have tolera
ted a sentiment hostile to the Constitution or
tho Union. |iut these great men and true pa
triots have passed away, and tho old Whig party
no longer exists. The weak, tho veoal and the
eelfibh in its ranks have gone over and arrayed
I themselves with Abolitionists, infidels and faua
! tic#, against their brethren of the South One
p.irty alone remains firm and defiant. Over
every foot of the soil of this Union, and wher
ever its Constitution eilonds, there too extends
the all protecting arm of the Democracy, bear
ing aloft tho bread flag of Civil and Religious
1 Liberty, the Constitution, ao-d the Union,
l Feilyw-Cutzene, our duty in the premises is
plain. However much party leaders may hesi
tate or haicp back, 'rarfu 1 uf losing their own
position, .>r of to an old political op
ponent, there ia but one oourae left, and that is
a general rally of all patriotic ouizens upon the
platform of the Democratic party. There is no
mistaking the toco of the Democracy in this
oriels. It unhesitatingly accepts tho issue ten
dered to it by the uaveroariec of tho Federal
Constitution, aud proclaims it a high purpose to
siDk or swim, uurvivo or perish, with the Ameri
can Union. Re-fusing to make terms with
traitors of any shad©, it has not only without
regret but with uudisscmblcd joy, seen them da
sert its ranks for those, of aa unps inciplcd oonii
ticn. and redeved from their baleful

its principles, or secresy in its organization, but
shielded, helmed and weaponed with the truth,
il advances against the combined fanaticisms.
U acoepts the whole responsibility of opposing
those who oppose the Constitution. It fully
outers into the contest against the Ab. litionista
and their allies. Iu such a cause, even defeat
would be honorable, hut victory is oertain to

We are no alarmists. It is not oar j urposo
to exaggerate the dangerous tendencies of the
politioal action of our opponents You can eeo
for yourBolvee uoi alone the obliteration of a
great party, but the bold and flagrant declara
tion of those who have taken its place. There
ia indeed no alternative left us but opposition,
as there Is manifestly no party left to make that
opposition but the Democratic party.
The inoonoeivable evils of a dissolution of oar
beloved Union, do not deter the arrogant faoiions
which now makes headway against the rights of
the States. The guilt ia not greater on the part
of such fanatics au Garrison and Phillips, than
on that of the demagogues here and eleewhero,
who support them. They are all working to the
same end, some of them with the consciousness
—and others thoughtless or reokless—of the
misery their success would entail upon the
oountry.
But how is it with you, people of Pennsylva
nia f Are you willing to yield fo the mandates
of those men ? Baa the Union lost its saored
and inestimable value in your eyos ? Are you
ready to rogard yonr countrymen of the South
as so many alien enemies? Wo disdain appeal
ing to your interests, we invoke your patriotism;
we appeal to the glorious memories of the past
and to the unparalleled blessings ever present;
and we point in proof of tho peril that besets
tbe Dear future, not merely to the overgrown
Whig organization, nor to tho fanaticisms spring
ing from its ruins and coalescing in our midst,
but to the alarm and dismay that have spread
over the South like a funeral pall, in view of
the aggressive purposes of Northern Abolition
ists.
And mark the miserable delusion with which

aud for thirty-five ye- : 3 -.iiregarJed by the 1 i
Abohtionis’fl, and apit up.u;; aci rovded lty them : >
with every epithet of scorn and iudignalion, has 1
been repealed t It denounces the doctrine of i
self government in the territories, the very prin
ciple upon which the American colonics were j
peopled, governed, and protected I It denounces j
the Nebraska ntit, which declares “ It being the ;
true intent and meaning of this not not to iegis- !
late slavery into any State or Territory, nor to ,
cxclade therefrom, bat to leave tho peopto there- |
of perfectly free to form and regulate their Jo j
mestic institutions in their oy?a way, suiject only ;
to the Constitution of the United States.” These
fanatics refuse, therefore, to allow tho people to
regulate their domestic instita tions ; yet as early
as Ootober, 1774, these l sited Colonies assem
bled in Congress, solemnly Resolved, “That the
foaodation of English liberty, and of all free
government, is a right in the people to participate
in their legislative Couaoil, * * * that the
colonists arc entitled to the freo and exclusive
power of legislation in their several provincial
legislatures, where their right of representation
©an alone be preserved, in all cases of taxation
and lhtbrbal politt !’”—and at the same lime
they further declared that those rights existed
“ by the immutable laws of nature, tho prinoiples
of tho English Constitution, and the several
oharters and compacts.” Tho Declaration of
Independence charged it as an act of usurpation
by tho King of Great Britain, that “he refused
to pass laws for tho accommodation of large dis
tricts of people unlosß those people would relin
}uish the right of representation in the Legisla
ture, * * * a right Inestimable to them,
and formidable to tyrants only."
Nor was our own Btato behind her sister States
i in assorting this light ; for by the third artiole
of tho declaration of the bill of rights, made in
July, 1776, it 4 was declared “ that tho people of
this State -have tho sole, exclusive and inherent
right of governing and regula’ing tho internal
polioy of tho same and when tbo deputies of
the people of Pennsylvania assembled in foil
Provinoial Conference, to suppress all authority
of the King of Groat Britain, and fur establish
ing a government upon tho authority of the peo
ple only, they declared their willingness to con
our iu a vote declaring the United Colonies free
and independent States, “ Provided, the forming
the government and the regulating the internal
policy of this Colony b: always reserved to the
people of the Colony."
And yet, against these self-evident and immu
table principles of American liberty and of all
free governments, men have the audacity to ar
ray themselves under the name of Republicans'
maintaining, too, that their fellow countrymen,
’ who inhabit tho territories, must act otherwise
than of their own free choice, ad that Congress
| should compel them to elect between dic-ntul
submission and threatened punishment I
But, fellow citizen*, even while indulging io
3 these expressions, this party is scarcely attempt
» iog to ooncenl tho fearful ultimatum cf disunion
i whioh it is now seoriDg to precipitate by means
j of an exclusive sectional Northern organization
r —the first organization of the hind ever ko jwq
) iu this republic, aud the sucoess of which is cer
tain to end la tbo perpetual clienatK-n of the
Sooth from the North.
And by political agitation, what cool can
they ever pretend to accomplish? Wnat man,
ia the free States of this Uuion, bo boae
fitted by tbs success of the Abolitionism" Not
one; nor eooi-1 they givo freedom to a sirglt?
slave; they would but more firmly live: their
fetters. A« early as 1828, the Uto Rev Win E.
Chancing, of Boston, said : “ My fear in regard
to our efforts against slavery .e, that we shall
m&ko tho caBO worse by rousing sectional pride
and passion for itj support, iioi that iiv shut!
only break (he count'>'iio two gre.it parties, uh:ch
may shake the foundation of otvcrnmiul
So la'e as I*6o, Mr. Wc-b-ter sa.i in tho Sec
ate: -
“Then. Sir, there arc tho Abolition societies,
of which 1 am unwilling to apeak, but in regard
to which I hovo very clear cottons and cp:ai::.3.
I do not think them n 3 c rl I think their •. [ e
ratious for the last twenty years have produced
r.othiog good or valuable. * * *
•• 1 do not mean to inmate gross motives even
to the leaders of those B*o'otica, but I a;,i r.:c
blind to the consequences ul their procee lings.
1 cannot but see what mi-oh'i-f their intcife
reno* with the South Ha pr. dnceJ And ia it
not plain to overy man * ‘ ' They a:
tempted to arouse, aud did arouse, r vsry firing
feeling ; in other words, they ert-ate-d great agi
tation in tt& North against Sou’Hru slavery.
Well, what was the result? Tho bond* of the
slaves vrero boand more firmly than before ;
their riveta were more strong y fastened
“ Public opinion, which in Virginia had Hguu
to be exhibited against slavery, and was opening
oat for the discussion of the question, drew back
and shut itself up iu its castio. * ' Wo
all know the fact, and v?s all know the cause :
and everything that these agitating people have
done, has been, uot to enlarge, bn< to restrain ;
not to set free, but to bind faster the slave pop
ulation of the South.”
Tho whole effort of these agitators seems to be
to make a sectional issue in every Oongrc fieional
district of the thirty-one States of the Union,
and turn the halls of Congress into an arena in
which the delegates from the North may do
douoco the domestic institutions of the South
Not only does all reason forbid ui to counte
nance sectional parties, but wo have the solemn
lyr .corded opinion of JcffsßsoN, who on this
very question said :
“ But this momootous question, like a Are-ball
in tbe night, awakened and Ailed mo with terror.
1 considered it at once as tho knoll of the Union.
It is hushed, Indeod, for tho moment, mu inis
is a reprieve only, not a Anal sentence A geo
graphical lino coinciding with a marked princi
ple, moral and political, once conceived and held
up to tho angry passions of men, will never bo
obliterated, and every now irritation wild mark
it deeper and deeper."
Lot the true Whigs, who have not coieeJ to
treasure up the counsels of their great atotes
mon, now app.y tho memorable warning of
Heory Clay :
“Tbe Abolitionists, let me suppose, succeed
in tho prosont aim of uniting tho inhabitants of
the free plates as one man againot tho inhabit
ants of the slave Stales, union on the one side
will beget union on tbe other. And this process
of reoiprooal consolidation will he attended with
all tbe violent prejudices, embittered passions
and imploonble animosities which over degraded
or deformed bumaa nature Goo section will
eland in menacing and hostile array against tb'
other. The collision of opinion will q tickiy bo
followed by tho olash of arms 1 will not at
tempt to desoribe scenes which now happily lie
oonoeoled from our view."
Let them weigh well the following words cf
the conservative Webster:
“ If we might regard our country as person
ated in the spirit of Washington , if we might
consider him as representing her, in her last
renown, in her present prosperity oud her faturo
career, and as in that oharacter demanding of
qs all to aoooant for our ooaduot as politic-il
men or as privato citizens, how should ho an
swer him who has ventured to talk of disunion
cr dismemberment * or how should ho aoswr
him who dwells perpetually on local Interests,
and fans every kindling flame of local prejudice *
How should he answer him who would array
Niato against State, interest against interest,
and party against parly, careless of the contin
uance of that unity of Government which consti
tutes as ooe people."
Aod finally, let all men within tbe bounds of
this Stato, and no matter to wbat party they be
long, lay to their hearts the farewell advice yf
Washington:
“ The unity of Government. whlob constitutes
you cue people, la also now doar to you. It is
justly so; for it is amain pillar in tho edl
fioe of your real independence—tho support of
your tranquility at homo ; your peace abroad ;
of your safety; of your prosperity; of that
very liberty whioh you so highly prize. But as
it is easy to foresee frpm different causes
and froth different quarters, muoh pains will bo
taken, many artifices cmployod, to weaken, in
your minds, the oonviction of this truth ; as
this is tho point in your political fortress against
which the batteries of Internal and oxterual
enemies will be most constantly and ootively—
though often oovertly and insidiously—directed,
it is of infinite moment that yon Bhould proper
ly estimate the immense vaiuo of your Nation
al Usion to your collective and individual hap
piness ; and you should oheriflh a cordial, ha
bitual and Immovable attachment to it; aoous
toming ourselves ]to think and speak of it as
of the palladium of your politioal safety and
prosperity ; watohing for its preservation with
jealous anxiety ; discountenancing whatever
taay suggest even a suspicion that It &*n, in any
event, bo abandoned; and iodignantly frowning
upon the first dawning of every attempt to alien
ate any portion of our coantry from the rest, or
to enfeeble the saored ties whioh now link to
gether the various parts.
“ For ibis you have every Inducement of sym-
pathy and interest. Citizens bybibtb ob ohoiob,
of a oommon oountry—that oountry has a right
to oonoentrate your affeotions- The name of
American whioh belongs to you in your national
oapaoity, must always exalt the just pride of
patriotism, more than any appellation derived
from local discriminations. With slight shades
of difference, you have the same religion, man
ners, habits, and politioal principles. You have,
s V o''• ' ‘
in a common oaosi*, fought and triumphed to- j
gelhcr; the independence and liberty you poa- ;
sees are the work of joint counsel and joint i
efforts, of common origins, snffer.ngs and sue
cesses.
“ This Government —the offspring of our own
choice, uninflaenoed and unawed, adopted upon
full investigation and mature deliberation, com
pletely free in its principles, in the distribution
of its powers, uniting security with energy, and
containing within itself a provision for its own
amendment —has a just claim to your confidence
and your support. Respect for its authority,
compliance with its laws, acqniesoenoe in its
measures, are duties enjoined by the funda
mental maxims cf true liberty. The basis of our
political systems is the right of the people to make
and to alter their Constitutions of Qovemment : but
tbo Constitution which at any time exists, till
changed by an explicit and authentic act of the
whole people, ie saoredly obligatory upon all.
The very idea of the power and the right of the
people to establish Government, pre-supposes
the duty of every individual to obey the estab
lished Government.”
If, in addition to these words, we need others
more directly and solemnly applicable to the
present times, they will be found in the follow
ing from the same immortal production :
“ In contemplating the osuses whioh may dis
turb our Union, it ooonrs as a matter of serious
coDcern, that any grounds Bhould have been fur
nished for characterising parties by geograpical
discrimination, Northern and Southern, Atlantic
and Western, whenoe designing men may en
deavor to exoite a belief that there Is a real dif
ference of looal Interests and views. YOU
CANNOT SHIELD YOURBELVES TOO MUCH
AGAINST THE JEALOUSIEB AND HEART
BURNINGS WHICH SPRING FROM THESE
MISREPRESENTATIONS; they tend to render
alien to each other those who ought to be bound to
gether by fraternal affection
Fellow citizens : We have thus submitted to
you the present oonditioo and tendency of po
litical parties, and the issue about to be made
betwocn them, iu this State and Union. As the
best and only safo guide for your conduct, we
have reminded you of the oounsel and warnings
of tho wisest and most patriotic of oar States
men. Your choice must now be made between
a sectional party under the black banner of
Abolitionism and the National Democracy, bear
ing aloft the gorgeous ensign of the Republic
“ with that sentiment dear to overy true Ameri
can heart—Liberty and Union now and forever,
one and inseparable.”
