iTue EMANCIPATION -PROPOSITION.—,
-President Lincoln proposes aid from the General Government to. States taking measures,
to free therr alaves. The proposition is de
Aared to be unconstitutional by some queru-.

ovinoed to make antagonism to the measure

There have been ajuce the ‘iunidite ‘of . @

jom‘Notwithstanding the horrible experionee
of the times, the strict constitutionists are
still exhibiting themselves, even in the guise
-of Union men. Such are those who rise up’
against the emancipation proposition of the
_President and call it unconstitutional. Let
‘The founders of ouraystem of Gaverainuet
_aet forth in the preamble to the Constitution
"the ‘objects of that Constitution and Govern"
ment—‘'to establish justice. insure domestic
tranquility, provide for the common defense,
blessings of liberty to ourselves and our pos
terity.”’ These are the objects of the Constitution. and if there are not the requisite
powers in the inatrument to secure these ob= 4t comes Ms a. the ferandera were
é cae line oieeniing to. the ‘tina toa
18 auger “to establish justice,” not alone
“to the slave but te every citizen of the Union_ by removing the cause of estrangement
insure domestic. tranquility” to ourselves
and posterity. It “provides for the common
defense,” strengthening the bond of Union
by removing the source of distraction and
weakness, It is designed ‘to promote the
general welfare” in numerous ways not necessary to mention, and tends to ‘secure the
terity.” It will scarcely be denied by any
but the rigid constructionists that the power
is lodged somewhere to curry out and sttain
the above enumerated ends. fndved, as the
‘Conatitution was made as a bend of Union
forever, without any specification of the power of self-protection,the right of self-defense
would exist as the first law of nature. But
the power is lodged expressly in Congress by
the 8th Section of Art. Ist, which says “Congress shall have powersto ‘provide for the
general welfare of the United. States.” In}
wnother place the general power is granted
to Congress to carry into execution the objects.of the Constitution. Now, we have
shown what the objects are as set forth in
the preamble, The right tu judge what
measures would conduce to insure domestic
secure the blessings of liberty to vurselves
and our posterity, it fullowa, must:be left
with Congress also. If Congress conceive
in its wisdow that the abelition of slavery is
necessary for the welfare of the nation, it
way offer inducements to the States te cooperate for the general good. Nour is the
lay down their platform cane, and make
man closer together
oppositiun to the emanc'pation of elaves in
the Diatrict of Columbia and the propositiv
to aid States in rooting out slavery, the principal planks. They call upon ‘the people to

the design of mnaking the support of slavery
wn article in ther creed is to draw the aeves‘sion vote to themeelves to defeat the Republieans. For they must know a large share
of the Union Demoeraey, such as sympathize
with “Bancroft, Dickinson and Governor
Spragne, will not give countenance in the
least to a party or a platform opposed to the
emancipation measures of the preseut Congress. Such a platform as that proposed by
the Democracy is abhorrent to the liberal
Democrats such as recognize the great names
we have mentioned xs exponents. It is not
to be supposed that the opposition in this
State, already reduced to a handful, are so
infatuated after*the empty henor of running
‘a ticket to show theit weakness, as to go mto & canvas with a certainly of losing many
votes on account of a pro-slavery platform,
and with’ no hope er expectation of gaming
the support of the secession slave Demoeracy, . The effect of sugh a platfarm as that
ing as they do, there is no hope for them in a
separote and distinct organ‘zation.
The assertion of the Usion Democracy,
that they do not care for the secession vote
is too bald to fool even the most stolid intelwitness that these sageeures. are a.unconstitus.
with the sunt of $100; -T
on these points is quite palpable. Professing
. to abhor secession and secessionists itis plain

The same formality which formed. the links
