The civilization of the age, and our own compromised moral sensibility, command us to cry, No slavery propagandist in any governmental place ! Let the offices of the country, from tliat of the president down to that of the tide-waiter, be filled scrupulously with men pledged to the interests of freedom and righteousness, as they arc now filled Avith men generally devoted to the intcre?ts of slavery and partizauship, and there will be no further danger of disunion. The gigantic official patronag...e of the nation will no longer be prostituted to debauch the consciences, and buy the principles of our aspirants. The South, ever eager for offices, will grow considerate, allow the right of free discussion, begin to apprehend the true economi- cal bearings of the question, and seek how to bring herself up to the standard of the rest of the country. And, perhaps, by soon obeying the voice of her brave Helper, and introduc- ing the redemptive force of Northern institutions, she will quietly avert her " Impending Crisis.
