Campaign Song.
AlR—-—“.-I Little More (.'i'der.”
The South once struck for Liberty,
And played the patriot’s part,
But like some ladies, now she keeps
The cotton next her lieu-rt. ‘
And now the days of iill licr frie mis-
“Bluck Douglass,” “Bully Brooks,”
And “Uncle Butler,” all are told,
And black her future looks.
Cuuiwu-—'l‘hen about with joyous cheer l
’l‘Iieu shout with joyous cheer I
For brave Fremont shnll lead the front,
And be our Pioneer.
Soon shall the fame of Friiukliu Pierce
in dark oblivion fade-
Melt like the candy, short and sweet,
For which that cent was paid.
Iluclinuan, though no doubt it “trump,”
“Runs with” it bad machine,
And ne’er shall in the old “White House”
As President be seen.
CuoRUs—'l‘hen shout, &c. -
Beside_s he has no dearer self,
The partner of his soul,
Fremont has got a “better half,”
And what must be the whole !
And in the old “White House” shall send
Sweet music in the aisles.
And like a. Jesriemine will wreath
lts porch with flowering smiles.
Cuouus--Tlien shout, ac.
We want no dough-face now, with all
The faults of North and South,
Whose principles are hard to find
As was the Niger’s mouth.
‘We want no loco who shall choose
His cut-throat “Buccaneers,”
On Freedom’: fertile plains to sow
Her soil with blood and tears.
CHORUs—-Then shout, dzc.
We want no Southerner, who’s learned
’Mong slaves to rule the free,
And studied liberty while serfs
Before him bowed the knee.
We want a man to stem the tide-
The stygian tide of sin !
And bid the “Reign of Terror” cease,
Which rose when Pierce “went in.”
Cfl0xUs—Then shout, &c.
There comes a chief from the sunset land,
From far off shores of gold-
A man whose mind and soul is cast
In Nature’s noblest mould.
And Freedcxn’s heart exulting throbs,
While from her buunered van,
Like the voice of many waters, peals
The cry-—‘*Be1iold the man !”
CuoRus—Then shout, &c. H, M, D,

ing, one of the pastors in the city of
Portland was visited by a deacon in his
church. and the unfavorable state of the
weather was the subject of anxious re-
ma|'k_ Yes, the deacon said, it was
likely to lose for the cause of freedom
some five thousand votes, but still he
hoped in God that they should gain the
victory. And he had had his courage
animated on his way that morning, by
what a Christian brother in another
church had said to him. He told him
not to fear; for, said be, we have reason
to believe, we know indeed, that much
prayer has been offered on the side of
freedom, for the success of its principles
in this election and for the victory of
truth and righteousness, and the discom-
fiture of our oppressors. This, said the
man, makes me confident of the success
of the Fremont and free soil party; for
God hears prayer. And on the Buchan-
an side, and the party in favor of slave-
ry, not a Christian man among them
dares to make at a subject of prayer.-
Conscience and shame forbid a man to
ask God to interpose for the protection
of slavery, and the success of lillibuster-
ing and oppression.
Now there is a volume in this. There
is tremendous truth here, which is well
calculated to make unprincipled politi-
cians tremble, and to discourage the
hearts of the pro-slavery party in this
election, more than forty rainy mornings
could dishearten the friends of liberty.
Indeed it has already rained votes for
more than forty days in behalf of Fre-
mont and freedom, and there is a pros-
pect of such a storm against the op-
pressoi's,as has hardly been known since
the days of Noah. Coalitions come too
late to save the terrified coalescent pal‘-
ties from such a deluge. Even though
they be kindred drops originally, yet this
hydraulic pressure will force them into
one to no purpose. If Jefferson could
rightly say that the Almighty has no
attribute that can take part with the op-
pressor in a conflict between slavery
and freedom, then certainly in this can-
test the supporters of slavery must des-
pair. They cannot pray. They dare
not make the success of this party a
subject of prayer. On the other side,
the Bible is full of promises of God's
protection for the oppressed, and every
page en_con_rages us to plead for the
"cause of. freedom and Xlghteousncss;

this issue, and there is no conservative
half way. The interests of religion are
concerned, and in this thing he that is
not for me is against me.
Now our readers have heard of the
swearer's prayer. It is a tract xvmch
has proved very useful in opening the
eyes and awakening the conscience of
some profane persons to the real wick-
edness of the habit of profane swearing.
Take the principles of slavery and filli-
busteriiig and nullification, and array
them in the same way, as assumed by
the Buclmnan and Fillmore parties, and
they do certainly present rather a queer
and surprising shape in the form of
prayer to a God of righteousness and
justice. The Buchanan platform would
make a liturgy indeed ; and every mans
conscience would have to be drugged,
and put into a lethargy, before kneeling
down upon ‘it.
For example. "We beseech Thee O
God, to blast the counsels of those who
are pleading the cause of the oppressed,
and to shut the mouths of those who
say that slavery is sinful. We beseech
Thee to fasten the ‘ chains of the" slave,
and to give success to those efforts that
are making to extend this blessed system
of oppression over our land. We pray
that the eyes of the enemies of this
precious institution, this benign. and
successful instrument of God's providen-
tial goodness, may be opened, and that
they may be enlightened -to see how be-
nevolent and heavenly a state the state
of slavery is, as a gift from God for the
poor Airicans, and for their descendants
in this country. And we pray that they
may also see and feel» that this state is
much the best state for the poor whites
likewise, and for the laboring classes
generally.
We pray that God will give success
to the United States authorities and ar-
mies in enforcing obedience to the laws
of the territorial legislature in Kansas,
which Thou knowest have been shown
by the House of Representatives to be
unconstitutional, cruel, infamous and
barbarous laws. We pray that the
people may be compelled to obey them,
and that thus there may be peace and
order in our borders. We pray that
“the throne of iniquity which frameth
mischief by a law” may thus be estab-
lished, and that it may be admitted into
fellowship with God, and supported by
the churches. We pray that all bad
laws may be enforced at the point of the
bayonet, in order that the people gene-
rally may be made more afraid to disc-
bey good laws. And we pray that those
fanatical persons who would use Shai'p’s
rifles to protect their wives and their
neighbors from violence and murder,
and their liberties from destruction, may
themselves be shot down, or banged up
for treason.
We furthermore beseech Thee that
Thou wouldst deign to guide and bless
the fillibusteriug designs of our govern-
ment and of the Buchanan platform in
regard to the Island of Cuba. Thou
knowest how important is the acquisi-
tion of this beautiful Island for the secu-
rity and perpetuity of the system of do-
mestic slavery in our own land. Thou
knowest the necessity of slave labor for
the growth of cotton, and thou only
knowest what vast and important pecu-
niary interests are involved. We pray
that thou wilt bless and sustain the con-
servative party engaged in the protec-
tion iind defense of these interests.
And oh 3 Thou knowest in how glo-
rious and blessed a manner the provi-
dence of heaven has been displayed in
making millions of happy Christians
through the instrumentality of the slave
trade and of slavery. We_ beseech thee
therefore, that thou would’st renew and
strengthen these blessed instrumentali-
ties, and cause the wrath of men against
them to praise thee. And we pray that
thus men may be made willing to con-
tinue to do evil that good may come.”
Is anybody afraid of such a prayer '3
Does it sound too abominable to be put
upon paper, even for the purpose of
showing how iniquitous and profane are
such principles, and how wicked the
party must be that can sustain them’!
But if it be right to act them out, and
to support them, it is right also to pray
for them. And, moreover, if it were
right for Mr. Fillmore to say that if
candidates for freedom as national, ins-
tead of slavery, should be elected by the
free States, the people of the South
would be justified in nullifying such an
election, it would be right for him and
his party to pray that they may be pre-
pared for such nullification, and made
successful in it. There is nothing
which we may rightfully assert and do,
that we may not pray for. And it
would be well for all parties. to turn
their principles and actions into prayer,
and then see how they look in the mir-
ror of conscience and of God’s. Word.
Often the thing contemplated, or the
habit formed, only needs to be thus bod-
ied forth, and the soul of an honest
man starts back aghast at such a horrid
spectacle. Look at the Sweai-er’s

Population.
From the Raleigh (JV. 0,) Standard—Bu-
chamm organ.
PROF HEDRICK, or THE UNIVERSITY.
As a matter of justice to Prof. Hend-
rick we publish to-day what he styles
his*‘delence” against the charge of being
a Black Republican. There is not a
point made or presented in this “defence
which could not be triumphantly met
and “P058” ; but surely it cannot be
expected °f 115, or our correspondent,
“AH Alummls.” Or any citizen of the
State, to argue wii.h the Black Repub.
lican. ,
The Professor closes his " Defence,”
with the opinion that "those \vho prefer
to denounce” him “ should at least sup-
port their charges by their name.’’_
The author of “An Alumnus" is a gen-
tleman of high character, and entirely
responsible for Whatever he has said, or
may say. He is a resident of this place
and his name can be known. if at all
necessary. ’
We adhere to our opinion, expressed in
the Standard :—-The expression of these
black republican opinions in our midst
is incompatible with our honor and safe-
ty as a people. That man is neither
a fit nor a safe instructor of our young
men, who even inclines to Fremont and
black republicanism. A
This is a matter, however. for the
trustees of the University. We take it
for granted that Paof. Hedrick will be
promptly removed.
PROFESSOR m:DIucK’s DEFENCE.
Messrs. Editors : In the laststanda,-rd
I see a communication signed “ Alum-
nus.” Although my name is not men-
tioned therein, still, I suppose there is
little doubt that it was all intended for
me. Now, politics not being my trade,
I feel some hesitaiio in appearing before
the public. especiall at a time like this,
when there seems to he a greater de-
sire on the part of those who give direc-
tion to public opinion to stir up strife and
hatred than to cultivate feelings of re-
spect and kindness. But lest my silence
might be misrepresented, I will reply as
briefly as possibie to this, as it appears
to me, uncalled for attack on my poli-
titics.
Then, to make the matter short, I say
I am in favor of election of Fremont to
the Presidency; and these are my reasons
for my preference :
1. Because I like the man. He was
born and educated at the South. He has
lived at the North and the West, and
therefore he had an opportunity of be-
coming acqnainted with our whole
people——an advantage not possessed by
his competitors. He is known and
honored both at home and abroad. He
has shown his love of country by un-
wavering devotion to its interests.—-
And whether teaching school for the
support of his widowed mother, or ex-
ploring the wilds of the great West:
whether enlarging the boundaries of
science or acquiring for our country the
“golden stal.e;” whether establishing a
consitutiou for this youngest daughter
of the Union or occupying a seat in the
Senate of the nation—in every position,
and under all circumstances-—-Wllich de-
manding heroic daring or prudent coun-
cil, he has always possessed the‘ courage
to undertake and the wisdom to carry
through. In reference to the value of his
services in California, Mr. Buchanan
says “he bore a conspicuous part in
the conquest of California, and in my
opinion is better entitled to be called the
conqueror of California than any other
man.” For such services and such abil-
ity I love to do him honor. “Platforms”
and principles are good enough in their
places; but for the Presidential chair
the first requisite is a Maze.
.2d. Because Fremont is on the right
side of the question which now disturbs
the public peace, Opposition to slavery
extension is neither a northern nor a
sectional ism. It originated with a great
southern statesmen of the Revolution.
Washington, Jefferson, Patrick Henry,
Madison and Randolph were all opposed
to slavery in the abstract. and were all
opposed to admitting it into new terri-
tory. One of the early acts of the patriots
of the Revolution was to pass the ordi-
nance of “87,” by which slavery was
excluded from all the territories we then
possessed. This was going further than
the Republicans of the present day claim.
Many of these great men were slave-
holders; but they did not letself-interest
blind them to the evils of the system_._
Jefferson says that slavery exerts an evil
‘influence both upon the whites and the
blacks; but he was op°poseil to the abo-
lition policy, by which the slaves would
be turned loose among the whites. In
his autobiograpliy he says: "Nothing is
Imorc certainly written in the book of
fate than that these people are to be free,
not is it-less certain that the two races,
equally free, cannot live in the same
government. Nature, habit, opinion,
have drawn indelible lines between-
thetn." Among the evils which he says
slavery brings upon the whites is to
make them tyrannical and idle. "VVith
the morals of the people their industry
also is destroyed. For in a warm cli-
mate no man will labor for himself who
can make another labor for him Tliis
. is so true that of the proprietors ofslaves
a very small proportion indeed are ever
seen to labor.” \Vliat was true in Jef-
ferson's time is true now !
1 might go on and give "Alumiius”
,evel'y week from now till the election, '
a column of good “black republican”
documents, all written by the most emi-
neiit southern statesmen. begiuiiing with
VVash'ington, and in_clu,d,iug nearly all of
eminence for ab,i_li.t.y, virtue and patriot-
ism, and cgimng down to our own times
No, lolgei; ago than 1850, Henry Clay
_d,ecla,red in. the Senate-——-“I never can,
-‘and never will vote, and no earthly
power ever will make me vote, to spread
slavery over territory where it does not
exist.” At the same time that Clay was
opposed to slavery. he was, like Fre-
mont, opposed to the least iii,t.er_£_ei-_enpe
by the general government with slavery
in the states where it exists. Should
states or by the federal government, no
one will be more ready than myself to
defend the “good old North,” my native
state. But with Washington. Jeffer-
son, Franklin, Henry, Randolph, Clay,
and Webster for political teachers, I
cannot believe that slavery is more
preferable to freedom, or that slavery
('X!€‘llSl0l'l is one of the constitutional
rights of the South. If “Alumnus”
thinks that Calhoun, or any other, was a
wiser statesman or bettep southerner
than either Washlngtnl] or Jefferson, he
is welcome to his opinion. I shall not
attempt to abridge his liberty in the least.
But my own opiuionsl will have, wlieth-
er he is willing to grant me that right
of every freeman or ir'oti..,V’_,I,_believe that
I have had quite as good a'i1-‘opportunity
as he has to form an opinion on the ques-
tions now to be Settled. And when
"Alurnnus” talks of “driving me out"
for sentiments Once held by these great
men, 1 cannot help tliinkilig that he is
bcconiirig rather fanatical.
For the information of. “Alumnus," I
will state that he has put himself to un-
necessary trouble in blazoiiing this mat-
ject belongs exclusively to the jurisdic
tion of the ‘trustees of the University.
They are men of integrity and influence
and have at heart the best interests of
the University. There" is‘ no _dif_i'iculty
in bringing this, or any other question
relating to the faculty or students before
them. “Alumnus” has also made an-
other mistake in supposing that the fac-
ulty take upon themselves to ‘influence’
the political opinions of the students.—
The students come to college generally,
with their party politics ~alreaLIy fixed ;
and it is exceedingly rare for them to
chauge while here. It has, however,
been often remarked, that ‘a very violent
partizau at college is pretiysure Lo“turii
over" before he has left college long. I
have been connected with our Universi-
Ly, as student and professor, for six years
and am free to say that I know of no
ins iiislitutibn. north or south, from
which partizan politics and sectarian re-
ligion are so entirely excluded. ’ And
yet weiare too ‘often attack_e(_l._by the
li‘igoLs_uf both. For niy|o\,_vJp"part, I do
not_l_m9w the politics of ni0,'l;e,a; than one
in a hundred of the students, except as
I nhiglii. infer to which party they be-
longed from a knowledge ofthe politics
of their fatliers. And, they would not
have "known my own piedilcctioiis in
the ‘present contest, had not "one of tliei_i_',
number asked me which of the condi-
dates I preferred. . ,~
But, if “Ali]ll'lnlls" would understand
thevstate of thiiigs here correctly, he
had better uiak-e a visit. to tIie.Univers_i—
Ly. He would find cacti iiieruber of
the faculty busy teaching in his own de-
partinent, whether in science or litera-
ture; and that party politics is one of
the brauclies which we leave the stu-
dent to study at some other place and
time. If “Alumnus” does conclude to
visit us, there is another matter to which
I might direct his attention. The two
societies here, to the one or the other of
which all the students belong, have each
a very good library, and in those libra-
ries are to be louiid the “complete
works” of many of our great states-
meu. Now, for fear that the minds of
the students may be “poisoned” by read-
ing some of thesesiaunch old patriots
would it not be well for “Alumnus” to
exert himself, through the legislature or
otherwise, to “drive” them out of the
libraries’! It is true the works of Cal-
lionn are in the same case with those of
Jefferson ; but from appearaiic-cs, the
Virginiau seems to be read pretty often,
while the South Caroliuiaii maintains a
posture of “masterly inactivity.” When
I was a student in college, a few years
ago, the young politiciaiis used to debate’
in the “halls” of the souletles the same
questions which the old politicians were
debating in the halls of Congress. The
side which opposed slavery in the ab-
stract generally had the books in their,
favor, and as the records of the saciety
will show, they had quite often " the
best of the arguinent.” So that when
Colonel Fremont said that he was “ op-
posed to slavery in the abstract, and up-
on principle, sustained and made hab-
itual by' long settled convictions,” lie
but uttered the sentiments of four-fifths
of the best southern patriots from the
revolution down to the present day ;
and may add, of the majority of the peo-
ple among whom I was born and educa-
ted. Of my neighbors, friends and
kindred, nearly one half have left the
state since I was old enough to remein
her. Many is the time I have stood by
the loaded emigrant wagon, and given
the parting hand to those whose face I
was never to look on again. They
were going to seek homes in the West,
knowing, as they did that tree and slave
labor could not both exist and prosper in
the same community. If any one thinks
that I speak without knowledge, let him
refer‘ to the last census. He will there
find that in 1850 there were fifty-eight
thousand native North Carolinans living
in the free states of the West. 'l‘liiny-
three thousand in Indiana alone. There
were, at the same time, one liuiidred
and eighty thousand Virginians living
in the free states. Now, if these peo-
ple were so much in love with the “
institution,” why did they not remain
where they could enjoy its blessing '3
It is not, however. my object to attack
the institution of slavery. But even

riarchal institution connoc shut his eyes
