The Newllemocratic Doctrine.
Slavery Not to be Confined to the
Negro Race, But to be made the
Universal Con dition of the La-
boring Classes of Society.
The Supporters 0_f this Doctrine vote
for Buchanan .’
The people of the free States have so
long yielded to the arrogant demands of
the Slave Oligarcby in the South, that
the latter has come to think it can carry
any measure it sees fit, no matter how
degrading it may be to the character of
the free white men of the North.
Not many years ago the Southern
slavebolders were contented to have
their “human chattels” protected in the
States where they held them.
Next, they demanded and secured five
Slave States from acquired territory,
(La., F!a., Ark., Mo., and Texas,) while
the free States havepnly secured two,—
Iowa and California.
Next. the Slave power demanded all
the territories, and broke down the Mis-
souri Compromise, which sedured a part
of those territories to free labor.
Next, they demanded the right to
come into ‘the free States with their
slaves whenever they choose, and stay
as long as they please, and the United
States Courts seem about to yield to
them, and grant this outrageous demand.
But the last, the crowning, the dia-
bolical assumption is, that Slavery is not
to be confined to the NEGRO RACE,
but must be made to include laboring
WHITE MEN also. This doctrine,
which is so monstrous and Giocking as
almost to seem incredible, is now openly
avowed and defended by very many of
the newspapers and of the public men
of the South that support James Bu-
chanan. The doctrine is also proclaim-
ed by eome Northern newspapers of the
so-called Democratic party, but not. gen-
erally with such boldness as in the
South. 'I‘o show the exact extent and
nature of this doctrine of enslaving
WHITE MEN, the following extract
from Becanan papers, and from the
speeches of Buchanan men are given.
The Richmond Examiner, one of the
leading Democratic papers in Virginia,
ardeiuly supporting Mr. Buchanan, holds
the following language in a late issue :
Until recently, the defence of Slavery
has labored under great difficulties, be-
cause its apologists, (for they were mere
apologist-.z,) took hall‘-way grounds.-
They defined the defence of Slavery to
negro Slavery; thereby giving up the
Slavery principle, admitting other forms
of Slavery to be wrong.
The line of defence, however, is now
changed. The South now maintains
that Slavery is right, "natural and me-
essary, and does not depend npén dif-
ference 0f UOMPLEXION. « The laws
of the Slave States justify the holding
of WHITE MEN in bondage.
Another Buchanan paper, the lead-
ing one in South Carolina, says:
Slavery is the natural and normal
condition of the laboring mm, whether
WHITE or black. The great evil of
Northernfrec society is, that it is bur-
dened with a servile class of ME-
CHANICS and LABORERS, unfit
for self-government, and yet clothed
with the attributes and powers of citi-
zens. Master and Slave is a relation in
society as necessary as that of parent
and child ; and the Northern States will
yet have to introduce it. Their theory
of free government is ii delusion.
There’s “ Democratic ” doctrine for
you, with a vengi rnce; “our theory of
{res government in delusion,”-—"laba2~
ing men, whether w/me, or black, to he
slaves.” Venly, niaiiers are coming to
a pretty pass with
The Ricliiiioiid (Va) ~E.’Il9Hi’I‘e7'. MI’-
Buchanan’s confidential organ, and con-
siderod by the “Democratic” party as its
gblest paper in the South, speaks as fol-
lows in a recent number:
“Has not the experiment of universal
liberty FAILED! Are not the evils of
Repeatedly have wensked the North, :
BLE? And do not most thinking men
among you propose to subvert and re-
construct it?” Still no answer. Th:s
gloomy silence is another conclusive
poof, added to many other conclusive
evidences we have furnished. that free
society in the long run is an impracti-
cable form of society; it is everywhere
starving, demoralized and insurrection-
ary.
We repeat, then, that policy and hu-
manity alike forbid the extension of the
evils affrec society to new people and
coming generations.
' Two opposite and conflicting forms of
society cannot, among civilized men, co-
exist. and endure. The one must give
way and cease to exist. The other he-
come universal.
Iffree society he unnatural, immoral,
unchristisn, it must fall, and give way
to a slave society/—a social system old
as the world, universal as man.”
And the Muscogee (Ala.) Herald.
another valiant Buchanan organ, says :
Free society! we sicken of the name.
What is it but a congloineration of
GREASY MECHANICS, FILTHY
OPERATIVES, SMALL FISTED
FARMERS. and moonstruck THEO-
RISTSP All the Northern. and es-
pecially the New England States, are
' devoid of society fitted for well-bred
gentlemen. The prevailing class one
meets with, is that of mechanics sting-
gling to be genteel, and small farmers
who do their own drudgery; and yet
who are hardly fit for association with a
Souihern gentleman’s body-servant.-—
This is our free society which the
Northern Iiords are endeavoring to ex-
tend into, Kansas.”
And the South Side Democrat, an.
other prominent Buchanan paper, in
Virginia, whose editor was supported
for Clerk of the House of Representa-
tives by the Democratic members ofthe
present Congress, abuses everything
FREE after this style :
We have got to hatingeverything
with the prefix FREE, from free ne-
groes down and up through the whole
catalouszue-—FREE farms, FEER la-
bor, FRET society, FREE will,
FREE thinking, FREE children, and-
FREE schools—all belonging to the
same brood of damnable isms. But
the worst of all these abominations is
the modern system of FREE
SCHOOLS. The New England sys-
tem of free schools has been the cause
and prolific source of the infidelities and
ti.-easons that have turned her cities into
Sodoms and Gomorrahs, and her land
into the common nestling-place of how!-
ing Bedlamiies. We abominate the
system because the SCHOOLS ARE
FREE.
The Charleston (S. C.) Standard,
another Democratic paper, in defending
the murderer Herbert, (the Democratic
Congressman,) who shot the poor Irish
waiter, says :
IPWHITE MEN accept the offices of
memals, it should be expected that they -
will do so with an apprehension of their
relations to society, and the disposition
quietly to encounter both the responsi-
bilities and liabilities which the relation
imposes.
The Alabama Mail, in commenting
on the same, says:
It is getting time that waiters at the
North were convinced that they are
servants, and not "genilemen” in dis-
guise. We hope this Herbert affair
will teach them prudence.
So much for extracts from “Demo-
cratic" newspapers. Now for a few
from Democratic speeches.
S. W. Downs, late Democratic Sena‘
for from Louisiana, in an elaborate and
carefully prepared speech, published in
the Washington Globe, says:
I call upon the opponents of Slavery
to prove that the WHITE LABOR-
ERS of the North are as happy, as
contented, or as comfortable, as the
Slaves of the South. In the South the
slaves do not suffer one-tenth of the
evils endured by the white laborers of
North. Poverty is unknown in the
Southern slave, for as soon as the mas-
ter of slaves becomes too poor to pro-
vide for them, he SELLS them to oth-
ers who can take care of them. This,
sir, is one of the excellcncies of the
system of Slavery, and this is the supe-
rior condition of the Southern slave over
the Northern WHITE laborer.
According to Mr. Downs, then, good
Democratic authority) all that the
Northern white laborer requires is some-
body to sell him when he falls into pov-
erty. Admirable philanthropy! Beau-
tiful Democrncy ! 3
Senator Clemens, of Alabama, de-
clared in a speech in the U. S. Senate,
that'*ihe operatives of New England
were not as well situated, nor as com-
fortably off as the slaves that cultivate
the rice and cotton fields of the South.
In a recent speech by Mr. Reynolds,
Pierce-Buchanan-Democratic candidate
for Congress from Missouri, that gentle-
man disiinctly asserted that-
The same construction of the power
of Congress to exclude slavery from a
United States Territory would justify
the Government in excluding foreign-
born citizens —GERMANS AND
IRISH AS WELL AS NIGGERS.

organ of the "Democratic" party, says
that the honest and heroic free LABOR-
ING MEN of Kansas-—

EYED RABBLE. who have been

SENATOR BUTLER, (the uncle
of “Assassin” Brooks,) is shining light

the U. S. States this session-
That men have no right to VOTE

Carolina. There no man can vote up.
less he owns ten negraes, or real estate
to the value of ten thousand dollars.
And this is the doctrine which “De-
mocracy,” so-called, would introduce
into the free States.
JAMES BUCHANAN, the Presi-
dential candidate of the men and of the
party who hold these odious views, ad‘
vocated the doctrine in the Ulllled States
Senate, of reducing the WAGES of
AMERICAN OPERATIVES and
LABORERS to the European stand-
ard, which is known to be about TEN
CENTS A DAY. Wliat a fit candi-
date Mr. Buchanan is for those who
would make WHITE MEN slaves.’
JOHN C. FREMONT, the true
Republican and true.Democrat, who has
worked his own way from poverty to
greatness, pays the following high
tribute to-the dignity of FREE LA-
BOR, and yet his enemies have the
meanness to assert that he is a slave-
holder. Col. Fremont never owned a
dollar in human. flesh. Hear what he
says about ‘_‘free labor.”
FREE LABOR—the natural capi-
ml which constitutes the real wealth
of this great country, and creates that
intelligent power in the masses, alone
to be relied on as the bulwark of FREE
INSTITUTIONS.
The New York Day Book, one of the
two papers in New York City that sup-
port James Buchanan, proposes to en-
slave poor AMERICANS, GER-
MA NS and IRISH, who may fall into
poverty and be unable to support their
families. Here are the Day Book’s ex-
act words in speaking of the POOR
WHITE PEOPLE.
Sell the parents of these children into
SLAVERY. Let our Legislature pass
a law that whoever will take these pa-
rents and take care of them and their
OFFSPRINGS, in sickness and in
health—clothe them, feed them, and
house them,-- shall be legally entitled
to their services .' and let the same Leg-
islature decree that whoever receives
these parents and their CHILDREN,
and obtains their services. shall take
care of them AS LONG AS THEY
SHALL LIVE.
JOHN C. FREMONT is the Rep-
resentative and Advocate of the exten-
sion of FREE LABOR.
JAMES BUCHANAN and MIL-
LARD’ FILLMORE are the Advo-
cates of the extension of Slave Labor.

Lovers of Liberty ?
[From the N. Y. Independent]
The Consequences of Defeat, and
the Need of Every Vote for
Freedom. .
In the great battle now impending for
freedom, it is well to look ahead, and
see what we may be running on, as weli
as what. we are running after. The con-
sequence of defeat are so pregnant with
terror and ruin, fraught with usurpa-
tion and despotis in our government,
so destructive of the rights and liberties
of the people, that we ought to burn our
ships, and leave no alternative but vic-
rory.
What an unprincipled administration,
bent on extending slavery, have done,
in the short space of four years, shows
what they would do, what they mean
to do, if they can keep the power. For
them there are no backward stops; no
repentance or retreat possible; they
must go forward; every’ progress they
make compels another advance to keep
it, and even to save them from its con-
sequences, though the end is death.
The slave power is like a loaded train of
cars, that has thrown off all drags and
safety-brakes, and is plunging down an
ibclined plain, without lei or hindrance.
At first they used the Constitution as
their locomotive to drag the train over a
difiicult grade upwards,-‘but now the
cars themrelves drive the Constitution,
with a velocity accelerating every hour
downwards. There is no bottom to this
deep, but yet the cry is, Forward, or we
go to pieces; the Union is is wreck, if
you stop us! And, as if it were noth-
ing more immoral than a John Gi!pin’s
gallop, Silver Grays, Old Line Whigs,
Fillmore Conservatives, hurrah by the
wayside, or stand guard to keep any
person from interfering. And the
watch-word with them all is Union and
Slavery?
They have stuck at nothing, and no
considerations of righteousness or jus-
tice will impede them. The present
administration, whose power is to be
perpetuated, if the candidate for freedom
is defeated, have already used the stand-
ing army of the United State: to sm-
tain and . enforce the acknowledged
usurpation. For simply declaring
against that usurpation, they have in-
dicted free citizens for the crime of high
treason, and are still holding them for
trial. under judges who are the officials
of that very usurpation ! The House
of Representatives, by a public, solemn,
laborious investigation, have demon-
siraied the territorial government of
Kansas to be a vast. villainy. and the
laws of that government to be uneon
stitutional and infamous, and then-luie
null and void, and the Senate them
se have admitted the same, and in
co manding instances have denounced,

the law-9 as atrocious; and yet. the
whole administration, President, Senate,
and House of Representatives, have
gone the whole length of requiring this
usurpation to be enforced, and of en-
forcing it at the point of the bayonet!
There is nothing impossible, or im-
practicable, after this. Such a preced-
ent. once set, such an experiment tried,
and found endurable by the tame sub-
mission of the country, without a revo-
lution. the way is prepared for whatever
may seem expedient. It only needs an
unprincipled party, or a party with the
support and extension of slavery as the
one principle, and such a President for
its tool as now occupies the place of the
Chief Magistrate of this Republic, and
the army of the United States may be
successfully applied -for the subversion
of all our liberties; and courts and
judges will be ready to sanction any
usurpation "for the sake of power.
We have such a party and such a
President in this administration, and
they mean to force slavery, step by step,
upon Kansas, and to make its power
supreme and perpetual over the whole
country, no matter ’whaf. usurpation
may be necessary for this object. The
President’s latest orders, and Jeff.
Davis’: proclamation as his War Secre-
tary, call for the enforcement of the
same territorial laws, that by each
branch of the United States govern-
ment itself have been pronounced un-
constitutional and barbarians; they
command the army to enforce an admit-
ted usurpation; and if they hold back
at all,-it is only to quiet the apprehen-
sions of the people before the election.
Every agency and oppression is still in
train, and will be active at a word.
If the people dono: put this adminis-
tration out of power, and inaugurate as
President acandidate for freedom and
justice, they certainly and deliberately
sanction all these iniquitous measures,
principles, and precedents, themselves,
and cut the throat of their own liberties.
This administratioii, the slvave party,
intend to continue in power on the Bu-
chanan platform; or with Fi|linore,,at
their head on the same platform; each
freedom, national. Now, if the people
only give this administration, no matter
under what‘ naine,‘four yearsinore sway,
with itspresent principles, it will have
gone so much further in power, will
have fortified itself with so many more
precedents, and judicial decisions, and
webs of unconstitutional enactments,
and experiments of unrightvous law,
tolerated as law, and enforced under
color of" law, and will have gained such
mighty strength by increase of patron-
age ‘and interest, its roots running far-
ther and farther north every year, and
twining round the pecuniary thrones of
more and more of our bankers and cap-
italists, ihat a revolution will no longer
be possible. I
The administrrtion will have judges
on the bench pledged to" sustain its vio-
!ations of the Constitution and the laws.
It have the whole force of the United
States at command to establish the slave-
holding tyranny. It will make new
laws, as well as pervert an old Consti-
tution, to shield Slavery, and give it a
footing in every State in the Union.
The edicts and the programme for this
have already gone forth; the pledge’ of
the needed judicial decisions has»? been
deliberately given by a judge upon the
bench, 3 tom of we present administra-
tion. Judge Kane’s argument has been
spread through the length and breadth
of the land, Ioieshadowillg the final lini-
versal conclusion of th8 paramount right
of slavery above all State rights, the
most ancient and sovereign State enact-
ments to the contrary lI0i-withStandiIlg-
It is also pledged that the price of ne-
groes shall rise, by this caiholicity of
the property, and its universal sacred-
ness from invasion, to an advance of
thousands of dollars a head; making
the mouths of the slave-breeding com-
muniLie- water with covetousness at the
prospect of such unparalleled gains.
With such prodigious power of interest
and wealth, such passionate greed of
gain enlisted, such intensity of excite-
ment added to the ordinary speculations
in human flesh, such a combination,
such an embankment of pecuniary, po-
litical, domestic, and religious expedi-
ences and necessities of the strongest
kind, with jedges conscientiously pledg-
ed to pervert the Constitution and the
laws, and a standing army to enforce
such perversion as law, and grand and
petites juries ready to indict and convict.
on grounds of constructive treason, and
leading advocates like Cboate to pro-
nounce the Declaration of Independence
in vain rhetorical flourish, and party can-
didates like Fillmore, to justify nul!ifica-
tion and disunion if the Northern and
free States should dare to set up a can-
didate for the interests of freedom ; with
all these securities to the slave tyranny,
and pledges for whatever more might
be requisite, a four years’ career of pow-
er would prostrate all our liberties,
would be enough to set the iron heel of
slavery on every State in the Union.
Now, to carry out these objects, the
parties for Buchanan and Fillmore are
to all intents and purposes one and the
same. Their differences are not worth
considering, though the Buchanan party
have a candidate to elect, an.| did sin-
cerely stari. with the determination and
expectation of electing him, while the
Fillmore party have simply a candidate
io defeat, their stock in trade being
mainly a malignant and envious hatred
of Fremont and freedom, and very few
among them being under the innocent
hallucination of imagining that their
candidate was anything more than a
convenient stalking-horse for that
hatred. If both these parties can coa-
lesce, and so can snatch the victory from
Fremont and liberty, and give it to the
slave power, they will be too happy,
believing, as they say they do. that the
country depends on that supremacy.
The Buchanan party are driving the
gospel of slavery, aggressive,‘ the F ill-
more party maintain the same gospel
conservative. The Buchanan platform
makes Ilavery the rule, on principle’;

They take slavery because it is good for
the Constitution, necessary as a privago
medicine, conserves the Union, keeps
up the secretions, makes the kidneys
active. The Buchanan party can satisfy
themselves with the common liquor. and
without any profession of conscientious
samples can take it as a drink, and bléis
God for the good creature. The Fill-
more party must have a salvo for the
conscience, and can only endure the ar-
ticle as medicine ; but the end is tho
same, hearty tapers all. To think of men
like Mr. Ketchum, and others, support-
ing, out of professed regard to peicc

that the whole South would be justified
in dissolving the Union if the North
