Progress of Abolition.
The Resolutions of the New York Whigs
confirm our - worst fears. They exclude the
oriemal^DrindDtes uDon which the nartv was
foun4e^ un4 Announce a septional issue. They
deliberatplyappeal to the people of the1 Northern-StdtesWem
ploy their numerical Representative
power, for the purpose of dictating the
'policy bf'the Federal Government. For the
first'time hi th6 history of the country, the advice
of Washington has.been-disregarded, and
"an open demand made for the control of the cou ntry'because'ofthe
superior power ofone'of its
sections. Instead of the patriotic declaration <
'of Webster ringing in our ears?adjuring us to
know no North or South?we are to be dress'ed
by*the drill sergeants of party upon a line i
of sectional, latitude. The men who have 1
prostituted an honored name?who have{defeat- I
ed the adjudication of great constitutional <
questions, pending for a quarter of a century 1
and adopted a new rule of organization, de- '
serve the execrations of all who love their coun- 1
try, and will descend to posterity as the con- 1
spirators who have wounded and perhaps de- I
stroyed that great public institution, which coil-" "i
stitutes the pride of those who uphold it and the 1
admiration of the world. * ~ V r
The New York resolutions coincide with f
those of Massachusetts, they conform to those e
of the Fusionists of Saratoga. Their tenden- I
cy is towards an open and unqualified aboli- f
lion; to undoubted inequality in State and c
sectional rights. There are to be certain res- |
olutions in favor of measures deemed popular, d
The Union: is worshipped in a preamble to c
the doctrines with rescind its chief princi- f
pie. In its holy name sectional policy estab- (
lished. It is the Mass before the massacre. It ^
s the flag upon which the restoration of the n
Holy sepulchre heralded the host of tyranny,
apine and injustice.
Do not the authors of this plan know that ?
they deal with a people who will resist what- J\
ever is unequal ? Do they not know, that s
whether there ma; be or not, disposition to recognize
in other Federal members the same b
ights which are already existing in the old c
States or not or the very injustice-and the stig F
aa of a disqualification- on account of those fs
^teucitee^rtCafflilin'ng this doctrine that J
lumbers makes right, will they reign over a 1<
liscontented and degraded people, as England y
ay her power has subjugated and oppressed p
Ireland ? c
Wo do uot think the American people will S
jonfinn the acts of these conspirators. We 0
aelieve the Union is too dear-r-the rights of a
others too highiy respected?the interests, sojial
and political, too vital to be so trifled
villi. . a
But the event has oocurrod which confirms &
our course. We announced that we could tl
ibld'no fellowship with the Whigs ofMassa- J(
:husctts because they had renounced the na- e
tionnl doctrines of the Whig party. We now c
make the same declaration with respect to all p
who shall support the New York resolutions, t

party tosecure the control of our most y
precious interests. We feel it a duty to the o

IVo Need for New Parties. ii
It is in politics, as in'religion, if old sects and
old standards fall* into disrepute, every imaginable
diversity;of new sect and new creed will (
instantly spriug up to take the vacant places. N
The new ideas.; leading to them being unor- ;
ganized and undigested it will require much j
time and many efforts to mould and harmon- f
ize thcui into one consistent and homogeneous (
whole.
At the present lime there is a strong tenden- ]
cy among the masses to quit old parties abapd- {
on ancient standards and construct new creflls i
nnd nfiw standards. * We have Intel V seen va- t
rious plans fur hew political organizations pro- ;
posed in newspapers from various sections of ]
the country. This disposition to form new (
parties haB been brought about by the sudden
appearance and rapid growth of the Know |
Nothings. The opponnents of this order, scattered
throughout the country, and thus far ,
denied the opportunity of consultation, and of
consentaneous action, have started different
societies in different places, all, however, having
the same object in view?the defeat of the
secret society... 3u.toach of these new oppo- '
sing parties makes membership a tine qua non
support; so that a candidate of one of
Spare organizations, though all of them have
the same objects in view, could no more get
votes of other kindred organizations than could
a Know Nothing.
From this it follows, that if those opposed
to the Know Nothings should divide themselves
jnto separate parties or bodies, with different
rules and regulations, and pledge themselves
hot to support any one for office who is not a
member of a particular party or body, then
their enemies the Know Nothings will have an
easy victory, i uw snowsine ausurauy 01 mese
societies.
There is no need for new" parties. The time
honored Democratic party is sufficient for all.
Its principles have become historical. They
have beep illustrated ..by the best,7 the purest
and the ablest men oflho nation. , They have
been victorious in many a contest They are
\veli defined and well-known. They are the
principles of the Constitution. Now creeds,

The Position of Austria.?The postur^f
affairs in Eastern Europe is without parallel p
its history. One of the parlies to a treaty, iwhich
it is "one of the covenants that an pt.
croaching.power that had invaded the territor
of another should be compelled to withdraw
within its o\yn limits, and that an armedTorct '<
should be employed to enforce this stipulation. ]
withoutactual war between parlies thus brought <
into this belligerent relation, is a most extraor-j i
dinary chapter in this history. Austria engages! \
with Turkey to free her territory of
der, who has encroached on her rights, contfl-fj
ry to express treaty, and yet Austria d$Wn&
that 011 the part of this invader there is n^caus
of war. Austria enters into obligations win
the allies, to preserve the integrity of the Ottt f
man territory and the independence of Turkej, r
against what she admits to be acts iti defiane c
of treaty, acts which are unprovoked lendinj a
to the rupture of the balance of powe? arid yi q
Russia, which has done all this, has lurnishet, n
says Austria, no casus belli. Whatever may t
be the conclusion of policy, there is lere ce> f,
tainly no logical relation. The posture of am- p
jd neutrality would be admissible if Aostrh 8
iad not entered into treaty obligations, boto
with the Ottoman Porte and the Allii, whidi
ead by necessary inference to one cf active
lostility. If there is no union of ffrces, to
jring the common enemy to terms, h<w is tic d
hjury, whibh it is admitted has been done, 1o

thousands are deterred from uniting in thanks
to^ the Most-High for blessings extended, and .
promises foretold, by reason of the great ene- ,n
my against whom we have^eclared unceasing
hostility, your own observation and reflection
have furnished you with reasons and 'with argu- -H

and you may have the sweet consolation of "a

into a useful member of society.
Permit me to express my high gratification
at the passage of the resolution to which I have ?
referred you. We have sent forth eloquent
emissaries in the great .cause from our order .
and they have effected much, but yet much remains
to be done. II we can engage in our
good work, men, who like .you, mi/stall feel
and know cannot possibly be influenced by any :r,
considerations but such as haye the welfare of, man
in view, we flatter-ourselves that we shall an
have in our behalf a. tower of- strength?one .
potent for good. If the attention of listening ; 01
and prayerful congregations tiiroughout the
land can be turned to the important subject of A
Temperance, a direction will be given to -jv
thoughts which will not be lost, and will not 1
pass away with the moment. The very con- ar<

which not even the most illy- disposed can inveigli.

Good Caors.?The New York Herald someiime
since sent circulars throughout the coun 118
;ry in order to obtain from, reliable' sources,. we'
statements of the condition of the crops in dif- na
erent States of the .Union. The result has .0
>een that the prospect of a plentiful year is tlon
ar more favorable than has been generally "!*0
upposed. Indeed, wo have long since-ceased p?'
0 place much confidence in the reports which !* !
re circulated almost^every year of a failure in
he-crops. The interest of the producer is calulated
to induce him to misrepresent the facts PfjCs.

there be an. honest intention to represent the',2
Uth fairly, there is a tendency on the part of j5?.*?

The Herald announces that the wheatr crop '?, a'
i Upper Canada has been unprecedented, and
tat the supplies for exportation to the United ienC(
tutes w ill be unusually large. From many ?2,?-.
turces too, we learn that the grain crop in JRlRi
ngland has been immense. Large tracts of -^
?untry have yielded an average of thirty bush- ^je h
s to th&acre, and in some cases the ^normous
eld of sixty bushels has been realized. ..
