Rouse up Brave Heart. mum the principles it embraces command the approbation of my judgement. Here is a full aeclaratioh of the Democracy and Mr. Pierce to sustain State rights, (ana especially the rights of the slave St#t#s) against the Abolitionists, mutatora pladgete stand by the Compromise measures. This is sound doctrine—Jeffersoninn doctrine. We hare nothing to do with slavery j in the slave States. It is a State institution, | and any interference with it by Abolitionists is justly condemned. The right to recover fugitives from service is a Constitutional right, and the Missouri Compromise prohibit* ing slavery in the free territories is a Jeffersonian Democratic principle and ft Constitution*) right, In 1848 James Buchanan, in a latter to the Democracy of Berks conntv, took firm ground J in favor of the Compromise, and fully endorsed the slavery prohibition principle. Democratic National and State Legislatures—Presidents, Governors, County Conventions, Newspapers and the whole party have endorsed and sustained this slavery prohibitory Jefferson plank in our platform, and yet in 1854 the demagogue leaders of our party growing wiser than Jefferson and uniting with the slave power rejicaled the Compromise—destroyed our platform and involved our country in civil war. Why did Jefferson, Washington and the people Cif their day seek to prevent the extension of slavery T Whv was it shut out of the Western territory f "We will let Jefferson and Washington answer for themselves. Said Jefferson, in his Notes on Virginia: to be necessary to nature, and man struggles in v«n against nature.' 0 ° 'free swiety in a failnre. We gay, you mast recur to domestic slavery, tbo ylJpat, the best and most common form of sooisllsrw,' | labor must be maintained, and the accursed doctrine of slavery extpnsionists overpowered • by tbe will of a free independent Democracy- The slave power doee not only seek to degrade white labor and extend slavery into the free territories of our country, bat it ii looking to the couquest or purchase by die United States of Coba. The South Carolina Charleston Mercury says Mr. Buchanan was the champion of the Ostend manifesto, the ex\ object of which was to secure Cob* out of ' which throe slave States can be erected. The slave power has forced the Democratic party into a contemptible endorsement of Filibustering against which Pierce issued his proclamation warning ail citizens. But alas, he was among the nrst to violate his own proclamation by receiving Walker's filibustering minister. If Walker is successful Honduras, Oostorieo and Panama will make three more Slave States. In truth the slavery plank Jn the Cincinnati platform, which Mr. Bpchanaia is pledged to keep in, has no end. The slave power stops at poshing: It rides over the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution under the name of Democracy and Progression. But let us see how we have progressed. In 1798 a law known as thp Sedition law, was passed by a federal Congress, and provided a penalty of $2000 and two years imprisonment tor every person who should speak, utter, print or publtsh or cause to be spoken, printed, uttered or published any slanders against the President or Conof ph# Unitpd States, with intent to defame the same Jfcc. Jp$»rson jmd the Democracy, in the language of the Baltimore platforms ifp»n which Pierce was elected, "swept this law from our statute books." "Remember Paoli," was the shout of Wayne and his heroes at Stony Point atfd "remember the Sedition law" has been our shoiitineverypolitical contest, nowhere we progr.csHJd. Head the following extracts hojfr the Wfblishpd laws of Kansas created by WWW legislature tfewgb tt)/s slave PQjrer and sustained by the power of tl)i«/Mr ministration and the Democratic party, "|f any free person, by speaking or by waiting, assert or maintain that persons hare nof the Tight to WC1 sjay.es in this territory, or shjilJ iptrudiw# into tliia Territory, print, publish, ,yrit,c, circulate, oreaose to be introduced into this territory, any book, paper! magazine, pamphlet or circular, containing any denial of the right of persons to hold slaves in this territory, such person shall be deeded C}VfhTT f)f rtfW*T, and punished by imprisonment & ,li#rd labor for • term of not less than two fears, "Every persoQ who may he sentenced by any court of competent jurisdiction, un&f any law in force within this territory, to punishment bf confinement and hard labor, shall be deemed % oopjyict, and sha1\ iwmed&telr, undor the charge of the of ja'ij or prison, or under the charge of such person aa the keeper of spoh j4.il or public prison may select, he put to hard labor, as in the first section of this act specified,—to wit, 'on the streets, roads, public buildings, or other public works of the territory,' [Seo. 1, Cge X-W ;J and such keeper or other person ving charge of sych convict, shall cause such convict while engaged at sucn labor, to be ser curely confined by a chain six feet in length, of not less than four-sixteenths nor more than three-eighths of an inoh links, with a round ball of iron,of not lossthao/nur nor more than six inches in diameter, attached, which chain shall be securely fastened to the ankle of such convict with a Strong look and key; and such keeper, Qr other person, having charge of such convict, may, if necessary, confine such convict whUe so engaged at hard labor, by other chains, or otfccr nitons, inhis discretion, so as to keep such convict sec ere, and prevent his escape ; and when there shsJl be two or more convicts undejr the charge of such keeper, or other person, auchcQry.icts shall be fastened together by strong chains, with strong looks and keys, during the time such convicts shall be engaged io bprfl lftbqr wjUhqut the walls of any jail or prisoii." Well might Jefferson say, "I tremllc for mtf country when I reflect that God if jtM— that hi* jiutu* will n»t sleep forever." How can any honest Democrat denounce the Sedition laws and sustain the administration of Pierce and vote for James Buchanan, who is pledged to Cincinnati platform, and also | pledged to carry out the will of tbe slave power ? It is vain to look to Mr. B. Ho has declared that we must not vote for for as Jamee Buchanan, byt we must vote for the platform- He l(Dis turned his back upon Jefforsonian Democracy—repudiated the qootri,ne of slavery prohibition as declared in nis Berks Co. letter, find he cannot, he dare not oppose the poorer of the Executive to prevent the extension of slavery. He is the candidate of a seotfoual party seeking to extend a sectional institution.against the intention of the trainers of bur government, and in direct violation of the time honored principles of the Duwouwtio party.

They confined the defeat* of slavery to mere negro slavery, thereby giving up the slavery principle, admitting other furiaa of slavery to be wrung, and yieldingtho authority of th« Bible, and of the history, practices and experience of mankind.

The laws of all the SC«lthern States justified the holding white men in slavery, provided that through the mother they were descended however remotoly, from a negro slave. The bright mulattoes, according to their theory, were wrougfully held in slavery. " The line of defence, however.

The ordinance of 1787 was introduced into Congress tjy Jf».CJWfcrson in 1784 and provided far government of the North West territory which had been ceded to the Ujpited SMea by yirgi.oia and Conneticnt.— The smthartiolA of ihiit ordinance prohibited shivery forever in said territory, and eonaecjuentlv, Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, .Wisconsin and )jiutDi)i»n caw* Abe Union Free States. In this condition of affairs, as we said before, we look to Col. John C. Fremont as we did to Andrew Jackson, for solvation and Mr eurity. We lookio feiai, through the people, for a restoration of Jeffersonian principles, and the peace and happiness of our common country. Col. Fremont has always been a truo Democrat—a Jeffersonian Democrat through whose agency CaUfqrpia jr&i .from the curse of slavery, and was received into the Union withoutits stain npoa her Constitution. But we are told that CoL Fremont is nothing but* SurveyorMid (Explorer, and therefore has no claims to the support of the people,  is unfit for the high position of President of the United States. Washington was a surveyor, anil liis exploration of the north west territory, flrst brought him into note and secured for1 him a Colonel's commission in the cC)loniaJ army. We do not say.tliat.CoI. Frenjpnt is h second Washington, but we unhesitatingly declare that he is a pure honest Jefforson a i Domocrat, and that neither his purity, integ rity, firmness, talents or sorvices to his gov eminent, will lose anything by a comparison with the talents, purity, iptegrity, servicos oi firmness of James Buchanan.
