{L? The Madisonian, Mr. Tyler's organ. raws a contrast betwepn Clny and Van Buen. Mr. Clay is held op as a)] Southern- )y birth, edncation, family alliancep, and by eingr a slaveholder. On the contrary, Mr. Van Buren s described ns olí Nortbern,--by irtíi, personal fies, a worehipper of the democracy of numbers - in csrly ]fe a fn vorer f the colored population- he acknowledges ie powet of Congress over the District of olumbia - "and at this moment he dare not pposc, or in any nianner ofFend, the Ahohonieta in hisown State." The Madisonian comes to this concluon: "Between thsse two Pre6idential ccnflidates lereforr, aB it respecta the qnestion of Aboiiion rnnrely, the slave-holdiFiff interest conld ot hesitate on which to choose. They would hoose Mr. Clay for the same icason which is now openlv proclnimed, occasioned his ejection at ihe Harrishursr Convention- his eing a Southerner and sla kolder ." Tnue we see how readily the slaveholderg rush the people of the Free States by diving thern on Banks and Tarift; nnd then by niting themfelves on the qnestion of Slavery, ïey govern the North as they pleasc.
