Free Soil Banner, Indianapolis, Marion County, 3 November 1848 — Page 3

For the Banner. The Taylor Party and Free Soil. The Taylor party claim free soil as one of their principles, and ask its friends to confide it to them. But the folly of such a course can soon be made evident. The Taylor party has its Northern and Southern divisions. The Southern whigs are as much opposed to free soil, as Northern whigs are in favor of it. The primary object of both sections of the party, is to continue united. To preserve this union of the party, the politicians of both sections are willing to make sacrifices, not of their personal interest indeed, but of any general interest or principle however important or sacred it may be. The “ Union of the Whigs ” is the party watchword, and to this Union everything must yield. How absurd it is then,to ask the friends of free soil to rely upon the whig party, or any party organization which embraces both the interests of free-labor and slave-labor. The Southern whigs as well as Southern democrats, have always united upon the slavery question. They always have, and they will continue to uphold the interests of slavery. Northern whigs, thus far, have generally voted to sustain the interests of free soil. If, then, we suppose them to continue firm in the stand they have taken, the free soil principles cannot succeed unless Northern democrats unite with them. But a pnr dent free soil man will inquire whether, under circumstances different fl’om any in which they have been .placed, there is no danger of Northern whigs succombing to the South, as Northern democrats have heretofore done. The whigs have opposed a democratic administration. Northern whigs, to obtain power, have denouncei the subse rviency of Northern democrats tesla’very. From the necessity of the case, they have sustained Northern interests. But what do we now behold '! The extension of slavery by universal eoiisent,Js the great question of thethtyv The greatness of the crisis required a man such as John M’Lean, Gen. Sott, or Henry Clay, pledged against the extension of slavery. Southern whigs demanded u Southern candidate, and our Northern whigs yielded^ their demand. They have thus sacrifgg^the principles they have professed p or ycars v to obtain power, have oom . menced the same course of subse v j enC y to the slave power, for which t | ie y jg. nounced Northern democrats, jp ;l f ree soil whig is asked to voteJj r Taylor, let him think of the Pintad^hj a Convention, and commit, if he cq’ t ] 10 interests of free soil to such Pfiticians. If Northern whigs could bag their backs to the lash of the slave-river^ an( ] then thank him for the smlcst favor as at Philadelphia, whaVnight not such whigs do in Washinon, with a slaveholding administratiqiand the immense patronage of the goTnment, dispersed by those who con- . sc end to be called brethren indeed, but vho in this case, as always, exercised Lordship over them. Let us rebuke our betrayers at Philadelphia. It is (heir fault that they have deceived us once ; it will be ours if they do it again. Let Northern whigs rebel against Southern dictation now, or forever after hold their peace. Let no friend of free soil decieve himself, in the belief that the whig party, or the democratic party, as such, will carry out their favorite principle. The only hope of our country in this time of emminent peril, is the intelligent and independent action of every citizen. PENN. For the Banner. To Democrats. The principles of Democracy rightly understood and applied, are destined to regenerate the political world. That government is an institution of Heaven, to be modified and sustained by the governed for their own good, is the truth which will prevail. Democracy should protect the rights and interests of every human being who is under its influence. In its own nature, it is incompatiable with every form or system of oppression, nor can slavery of any kind exist where Democracy is carried into actual operation. The idea of a slaveholding Democrat is absu rd. By the force of circumstances over which he imagines he has no control, he may hold a legal title to slaves; but if he is a Democrat, he will acknowledge that his slaves are bis brethren and entitled by their Creator to the same rights which he claims and exercises. No true Democrat can cherish slavery or use any means to extend it. Men who advocate, who connive at, or in any manner consent to the extension of slavery, are enemies to Democracy by practice, whatever they may be by profession. Jefferson was the founder of the Democratic party; the great Apostle of Democracy. He was also a slaveholder. But he declared slavery an evil, a curse both to the master and the slave. As a consistent Democrat he endeavored to check the evil, to prevent the extension of slavery. He was the author and the great advocate of the Ordinance of 1787. Jefferson was a true Democrat. What a spectacle do we

now present to the civilized world. The I Democratic party of this model Republic, forsaking the precepts and practice of Jefferson, denouncing his policy as opposed to Democracy, as unconstitutional, now supporting a candidate for the Presidency who is pledged to sustain the South in the extension of slavery. Gen. Cass pronounces the Ordinance of 1787 as unconstitutional, which was proposed and advocated by Jefferson, sanctioned by Washington, and recognized by every President down to the present time. Even Mr. Polk recognized the power of Congress by signing the Oregon bill. Gen. Cass is unworthy of the support of any freeman, especially of any Democrat. What true Democrat prefers the opinion of Cass to that of Jefferson and Washington 1 How can a Democrat vote for a man pledged to veto the Wilmot Proviso? Let every Democrat ask himself what Democracy means, and whether he can answer it to his conscience, to his country, and to his God, in voting for Cass and the extension of slavery. The Free Soil party is the only, the true Democracy. Van Buren is the representative of the principles of Jefferson. Lot the Free Democracy rally around him. A FREE DEMOCRAT. For the Banner. David Wilmot. The election of this gentleman to Congress, from Pennsylvania, is an event alike honorable to himself and his constituents, and auspicious to the cause to which he is devoted. The freemen of Pennsylvania are entitled to the admiration and gratitude, of every friend of freedom, for electing David Wilmot to Congress, and giving him a majority so great and overwhelming. Notwithstanding the factious opposition of a few pretended democrats, the true democracy of his district, aided by many independent whigs, have nobly sustained him. The result proves that the heart of the peoptr-j s righp U p 011 the issue involved in l ' ,e c ontcst. Vet no Northern democrat in Congress, Here fore, fear to trust himself with his constituents, while he places himself by the side of Jefferson and Wilmot. Let doughfaces look forward and see the scorn and contempt, which will assuredly be visited upon them, if they betray their constituents, and sacrifice the honors and interests of their country, in the present | contest with the slave dealer. P. Head This. The following observations, taken from the Cayuga Free Soil Advocate, published at Auburn, N. Y., we commend to the careful perusal of all our readers. They are applicable to all parts of the Union. Read them over carefully—reflect upon them seriously—let their truths make a proper impression upon every mind, and when you go to the polls, “Remember, that this election will decide whether we arc or are not to have fifteen new slave states, ;md be cursed with THIRTY MORE SLAVEHOLDING U. S. SENATORS, SLAVEHOLDING PRESIDENTIAL ELECTORS, and some twenty thousand more SLAVEHOLDING OFFICEHOLDERS, to be supported by the free North. Shall we have them ? Remember, that if the North loses in this struggle, her political preponderence is gone, and the south will rule us forever. Shall we suffer ourselves to be more enslaved than we now are? Have we not yielded enough already ? Remember, that if you suffer slavery to go into California and New Mexico, those countries can never be settled by free emigrants. What Irishman, or German, or Scotchman, wants to go there and work by the side uf Negro Slaves, and be despised and abused as a WHITE NIGGER, as the laboring whites are in the South ? Remember, that the free democracy propose to cut up the public lands in those territories into suitable divisions, and to GIVE A FARM FREE TO EVERY ACTUAL SETTLER. Who is willing to yield all that glorious country to spendthrift planters and their negroes? Who is willing to give those vast and rich gold mines, recently discovered, to the insatiable avarice of the slaved rivers ? Remember that Cass is pledged to veto the wilmot proviso, and that the candidate of the opposite party has not told you what be would do, but his Southern friends who know him best, declare that Gen. Taylor WILL UNDOUBTEDLY VETO THE PROVISO. The slaveholders have begun to move into New Mexico with their slaves. Judge Beard ol Texas has gone to take possession of the country, claiming it for Texas. The moment of finale decision has come. NOTHING BUT THE PROVISO CAN SAVE THE COUNTRY. Will you vote THE PROVISO ? Remember that the only opposition to Van Buren and Adams is the result of the old party prejudices. Is there one of you who will risk the rights of the North and the honor of the country to gratify an old prejudice? Be nobler men. It is better to join with an enemy to do right than with a friend to do wrong.

Remember that every vote is important. It has a vast moral power. The South will be sure to watch the election returns, and she will count the votes. Let us roll up such a majority as will astonish, confound and overwhelm the minions of slavery. We can do it Shall we do it? Farmer in the field, Mechanic at the bench, Student among the records of the past, Priest at the holy altar, we call upon you by all the glorious recollections of bygone years, by all the blessings and comforts of our present freedom, by every hope that streams in light across the darkness of the future, by your love of liberty and man, by your fear of God who commands you to establish justice in the land, and by your hope in Him who died tor the freedom of the world, we call upon you to choose the better side. We call upon you to strike for liberty and the rights of man. What are you doing? Is your town organized? Have you an active, faithful committee, in every School District ? Has every voter been conversed with? Have you supplied every one with the necessary documents? Have the Assembly District Central Committees, whose duty it is, taken the poll lists every where, so that they know just how many votes we shall have? Are you holding neighborhood meetings? Are you doing all that earnest men can do ? If you leave the work to others—if you grudge a few dollars expense or a few days time—if you neglect your duty and the work is not done, and we are defeated, how bitterly you will reproach yourselves hereafter. Reflect, the neglect of TEN MEN may lose us the State, and with that loss bring down the curse of perpetual slavery upon the country. Who will be ONE OF TEN TO SELL HIS COUNTRY! We must have every vole. Every man must work. NOT AN HOUR MUST BE LOST. On then to the Battle. On to the Victory! The country “expects every man to do his duty.”

From the Ilhica Journal. Who are for Free Soil!—Read and sec. Mr. Harkell, a Taylor whig from Tennessee, was asked on the floor of Congress, this question, ‘will Gen. Taylor veto the Wilmot Proviso ?’ He replied, ‘I can tell you what 1 believe—I believe that Gen. Taylor is opposed to the doctrine of the Proviso.’—[App. C. Globe, p. 747. This is Taylor ‘Free Soil’in Tennes-

i see.

Again, Mr. Hilliard, a Taylor whig from Alabama, was asked whether ‘he believed a majority of the Philadelphia convention were opposed to the Wilmot Proviso ?’ In reply, he said, ‘I desire to say that, when that convention, in the open light of day, thousands looking on, voted to put down the Proviso, it gave me the strongest assurance I could ask that they would stand by the South against it.’—[App. C. Globe, p. 777. This is Taylor ‘Free Soil’ in Alabama! Again, Senator Phelps, a Taylor whig from Vermont, was one of the concoctors of the infamous compromise bill, upheld it, and urged it through the Senate, thus giving over to the blightning curse of slavery a vast extent of ‘territory now free.’ Yet he is sustained by the Taylor Free Soil party, and none of their journals have yet dared to speak of this‘Vermont Dickinson’ as he deserves. This is Taylor ‘Free Soil’ in Vermont ! Again, Senator Clayton, a Taylor whig from Delaware, (who stood quite a chance of being nominated for President, by the whig convention before they concluded to run an independent candidate,) was the prime mover of the ‘Compromise Bill,’ and without doubt did more to get it through the Senate, than any other man, yet he is upheld by the whole Taylor ‘Free Soil’ party. This is Taylor ‘Free Soil’ in Delaware.! Again, in the ‘Southern Recorder,’ after the adjournment of the Philadelphia convention we find the following : ‘In the democratic convention a resolution was offered, condemning the Wilmot Proviso, and it was rejected, thirty-six delegates voting for it. In the whig convention, the Wilmot Proviso itself was rejected, by almost a unanimous vote. This is Taylor ^Free Soil’ in Geor-

gia I

Again, in the address of the ‘Central Rough and Ready Club’ of New Orleans, to the people of Louisiana, signed by S. S. Prentiss and nine other leading Taylor whigs, they say, ‘the election of Gen. Taylor will afford to the South and to the West, the strongest of all guaranties for security, during Ins administration, on both the great subjects to which we have referred, [the Proviso and Internal Improvement.] As regards the Proviso, we need not remind you that, being himself a slaveholder, a native of Virginia, a citizen of Louisiana, with every feeling and interest identified with us, we huve nothing to fear. This is Taylor ‘Free Soil’ in Louis-

iana.

Again, in the preamble to the resolutions adopted at a Taylor meeting in Charleston, S. C., we find the following : 'His interests are our interests. We know he must feel the lawless character of any attempt to interfere with our property, directly or indirectly ; we know he must feel the senseless clamor that is raised to disturb our possession of that property, as violating the law either of God or man. We know that, in this great paramount and leading question of the South, he is with us, he is of us, and he is for us. This is Taylor ‘Free Soil’ in Caro-

lina !

Again, ‘Mr. Hope H. Slatter, the notorious slave dealer at Baltimore, has closed his slave market. The fugitives re-cap-tured on board the ‘Pearl’ were about the last he purchased. Mr. Slatter has taken the stump for Taylor, and that is the cause of the closing of the market.’—Detroit Press. This is Taylor ‘Free Soil’ in Maryland ! Again, when a few weeks ago, the silly story was started in New Haven, Conn., that a ‘certain somebody’ had received a letter from Gen. Taylor, saying, ‘that he would not veto the Proviso,’ it strayed out of its intended latitude, and found its way to Richmond, Va. The Richmond Times notices it as follows : ‘Gen. Taylor will veto the Proviso, and, if any one has a letter pretending to be from Gen. T. saying he will not, it is a forgery. This is Taylor ‘Free Soil’ in Virginia! But where is Gen. Taylor himself on this great question that is overriding all others and throwing to the shades, for the present, at least, as minor and unimportant, all old issues? In justice to himself and the people whose candidate he claims to be, he should have answered long ago. But, bearing in mind that he is the owner of 280 slaves, a cotton planter in the Stale of Louisiana, and one who has been reared among slaves, and educated a slaveholder, let us proceed honestly to the work of finding out his position. To begin, take a speech delivered at Baton Rouge, (Gen. Taylor’s residence,) by Mr. Benjamin, one of the Taylor electors of the State of Louisiana. In that speech he said, ‘I can affirm that the old General is all right on the slavery question. I can assure you, my fellow-citizens here, that Taylor will promptly veto anything like the Wilmot Proviso. The interests of the South are safe in his hands.’ Again, ‘in regard to the conversation we had with Gen. Taylor, we did not talk of the tariff-—we did on the war. He expressed himself in favor of the war ; he said he was decidedly in favor of prosecuting it vigorously until they should yield to an honorable peace ; he was infavor of indemnity, and that territorial; be was not wedded to any particular line, but thought, as a kind of compromise, perhaps, with the Wilmot Proviso men, we had better go up to the 23d degree, making the Jiio Grande the western boundary up to that degree; and said the South should never agree to the principles of the Proviso.’— Report of the committee of the Mississippi Legislature. Again, we find in the ‘Mobile Herald,’ a letter from one who had been on a visit to Gen. Taylor, from which we make this extract : —Speaking of the ‘free soil’ movement ‘in the North, he (Gen. Taylor,) expressed fears that it would be the absorbing question in the present canvass, and engross all other questions. He said that he considered the Missouri Compromise a fair and liberal line for settling the slave question, and he was willing to sec it adopted. In reply to a remark made by a person whom he was conversing with, he said that most of the old party questions were obsolete.’—Mobile Herald, Aug. 28. Add to this the following collateral evidence obtained from Taylor Whig prints, published, as it were, in his own neighborhood, and under his eyes, and we have a tolerable clear idea of Gen. Taylor’s position on the Proviso. ‘Gen. Taylor is from birth, association, and conviction identified with the South and its institutions, being one of the ‘most extensive slaveholders in Louisiana, and supported by the slaveholding interests, as opposed to the Wilmot Proviso, and in favor of securing the privilege to the owners ot slaves to remove with them to newly acquired territory.’—New Orleans Bee. ‘That monstrous assertion, [that he will not veto the Proviso, ] so entirely at war with the character of the man, and the tenor of his whole life, could only have been made by political leaders in the last stage of desperation, when they saw that everlasting political rout and ruin was approaching them as fast as the course of time would permit.’—Notches, Miss. Con. ‘We must elect a man for President who lives in our own sunny South, who is willing to peril all for the Constitution, who loves the South and her cherished institutions. Such a man is Gen. Taylor. He livo« in the Squib, and makes his twelve hundred bales of cotton on the banks of the Mississippi. His interests, ms feelings, are all avith us.—Aberdeen Ala. Whig. In regard to his allowing the Proviso to pass, take the following : ‘The General owns too many ‘niggers’ for that; and he will not go for the Proviso, until somebody can make one of the blackest white, by washing him.’—Augusta, Georgia, Chron-

icle

‘Gen. Taylor—a Southern man—the destiny of himself and his children identified with the South!!—His immense WEALTH CONSISTING OF slaves and land, that have to be cultivated by slaves to render them valuable !—he an enemy to the South !—he in favor of prostrating Southern rights and interests! !—the very quintescence of absurdity ! !! They might as well say Gen. Taylor is a free negro— they would be believed just about as soon, and exhibit full as much reason and truth in making the charge !’—Marion, Ala. Review.

A Scrf.av Loose Somewhere.— A few weeks since, Horace Greeley paraded at the head of ids columns the names of Taylor and Fillmore, and declared his intention of doing all in his power for their success. The next week we find the Tribune has dropped their names from its mast-head, says but little, if indeed it does anything, in favor of them, but its columns are filled with Free Soil intelligence—eulogiums of John Van Buren—“ Prince John.” Is this the kind of zeal with which he intends to support old Zack? We wish the Taylor papers generally partook more of the same spirit.

JLetter f rom Robert Fmmet. from the Buffalo Republic.] Our respected fellew-citizen, Patrick Coffee, received a day or two since the following letter from Robert Emmet, of New York, in reply to an invitation to the latter to visit this city and to address the people on the allengrossing subject of the extension ol slavery to the free territories of the Union. The engagements of Mr. Emmet, it will be seen, are and have been such as to put it out of bis power to comply with the invitation, but lie is warmly devoted to the cause of Free Soil and free labor, and urges his countrymen not to desert the flag ol freedom. To Irishmen it is scarcely necessary to say that Robert Emmet is one of the mostesteemed, distinguished and influential of our adopted citizens, and is second to none in point oi patriotism, ability and integrity.— Like his ancestors, from whom he inherited the warmest devotion to the cause of human liberty, he is on the side of freedom and against oppression. In taking this position, he proves himself worthy of the name he bears—a name synonymous with patriotism and indelibly inscribed on many of the proudest pages of history. We trust no one will fail to read the letter. It is brief and to the point: New York, Oct. 10th, 1848. Patrick Coffee, Esq.,—Dear Sir—1 have received yours of the 3d insl., inviting me to visit your city, for the purpose, I presume, of aiding at a meeting of the Free Soil voters. 1 should be glad to aid by any exertion in my power a cause which I sincerely believe to be worthy of every honest patriot’s support, but 1 find it will not lie in my power to comply with your request. My business has suffered so much during the last four months, from the constant occupation of my time in attending the affdrs of unfortunate Ireland, that absence from home would be little short of ruin to me. I have received several similar applications from difibrent parts of the country, and have been compelled to decline them all. 1 trust, however, that our countrymen in Buffalo will notdesert the flag of Free Soil. Of all people in the world, the Irish, who suffered, for ages the miseries of a serfdom more degrading and galling Ilian slavery itself, should rally in defence of Free Soil and Free Labor. It is not a question whether this or the other man shall he President, or whether this parly or the other shall have the offices to give away. It is whether the great principle of freedom shall prevail as the controling policy of this country, where we have sought and found a refuge from foreign oppression; and every Irishman ( barring an Orange man ) is bound to give that principle his earnest and hearty support. Yours truly, R. EMMET.

Good for Old Montgomery.—The Free Soilers of Montgomery Cojnty are of the right grit, and no mistake.— We received by Tuesday’s mail, an order from the Central Committee of that county, for two hundred copies of the Journal, accompanied by the cash. That’s the way to go to work. It shows that, there is a spirit of determination among the friends of Freedom there, which can’t he quenched.— Tip. Journal. A - Taylor In Virginia. The Richmond ( ATi.) Republican says: “Now for General Taylor—what does he say? Why lie says emphatically hr. will stand by the Conslilulion in the adminislralion of affairs. Well. This Wilmot. Proviso is most unquestionably unconstitutional in every sense of the term, ( so thought all Southern men.) Consequently, he is compelled to veto it, because it. would come under the class of meaaui s which he would denominate unconstitutional. F urthermore: Gen. Taylor is a large slaveholder; and does any man of intelligence fear that Gen. Taylor will sanction the Proviso?” And again it says. “ Now is the time for action. Now, fellow-citizens, while the genius qf liberty wings its flight over your destinies. Now,, while you see in the South a brilliant “star,” in the person of Zachary Taylor—who will rule the people with moderation, regarding the Constitution as his shield and protection—who is identified with, anil will be devoted to your institutions—who, by bis express declaration, says he loill veto the Wilmot Proviso.” The Sectional Party.—Free Soil Electoral Tickets have been formed in all the Northern States, and several of the Slave States. Free Soil Meetings are being held in North Carolina, Virginia, Kentucky, Louisiana, Missouri and Tennessee. If Slaveholders, in Slaveholding States, join in the Free Soil movement, what must we think of Northern Freemen who sustain Taylor and Cass in direct opposition to this beneficent movement?
