The Kentucky ,4 J.lrr-The-lemocratic Re

recently published a very b!e nddresa to the peo

swer to one directed to him by lto Committee.
In order that there might be a, decisive and iat
isfaciory settlement of the al-imKrtant question
of the opinion entertained by Gen.. Harrison
and Mr. Van liuren, the Committee determined
to lake 'the aureat and aliorteat way ol aacer

cisel themejettcr lo each of them.
Tho one for Gen. Harrison was carried to him,
and placed in hi own' bands, by two gentlemen
chosen for that purpoae ; Meurt. Wtn. Cham-

to the South, and aurely nn concealment of opin
ion in relation to if ought to be for a moment at

mute, and absolutely refuses to answer one way or
the other. Have the freemen of this country come
to that state of pjirty degeneracy, that they will
vole for a man for tbe Piesidency, or any other
office, who is either ashamed or afraid, openly to
declare his sentiments on any auhject, and above
all, 011 such a subject as Abolition t ,
Divest ihe matter of all political bearing, and
look at it for a moment, We see a vile party nf
incendiary fanatics, who have arisen at the North,
jWwse avowed object is lo destroy the rights of the
South, Violate the Constitution of Ihe United Stales,
iiihL bring civil war amongst us they have at
tained lo influence, and the queation ia put to Gen.
Harrison, as a Candidate for the Presidency
whether he will favor the wretches or not, and he
refuse "toanswer yd or no ! Thi i the plain
truth, end-yet here among us, ia a party justifying
Ills cwiiuct. a ud sunjHirting him in spite hC iU,
Turn, now, lo'Mr. Van Buren, and examine his
conduct. ' A copy of the same letter sent lo Harri
son, waa also scut to. him. What is Ihe result?
Dora he close jsjips and refuse jp seak 1 Nqj
he knew hi duty to ihe people better. Like a free
and independent man, he gives a clear and explicit
answer to all the questions proposed, and the same
is published to the world. In this answer, he ex-
puaa lha ABmiiIioiiiu in intur imaeolofs, andde'
clarca his uncompromiaing hostility to their nefa

These are questions that call fir the acrious

FItUM THE ENEMY,
j Do Soiiiheui men douU tiie 1-1 ojicra'i )t) of the -Abolitionists
in-the aupport ofCn. Harris 1
let them read tho letter below from an Abolition
ist who i evidontly a lending nvin aoKiugst them.
He is, a he ayi " iiualiwl at WiHO-ton, with -the
whole field of battle before hira."- Obsene
the niain point of hi argument Io favor of Gen,
Ilarriaon. : i- '.-;-'-- -. - - '''
lat. Ho lay but little sire; on any expressions
of opinion made heretofore1 under different circum
stance, and judge by tbe acta of the candidate,
and the acta of their frienda of late.
' 2d. He take it for granted that Gen. Harrison '
waa preferred over Mr. Clay in the Ilarrisburg -oomiuatioa
to conciliate the Abolition party, who,
be' eayaj j! had ihoir portion of influence in thaxf
Convention, and mart too, in proportion to teir
numbers." From these and other facts be goen
on to conclude that the Whig party generally will
be willing and ready " to lake for public office thoae
who favor the cause of Abolition." If there are -honoat
men really desiring to know whether Har
rison ia the Abolition candidate, and they are not
satisfied with such proof that it i so, as thia and
other facta which we have published.clearly ahow-
we are really at a log to koow what Could con.
vince them. The letter following, we extract from
" Tke PhitimthrojiittJ' an Abolition paper pub

Pk ab Sib : I understand there ia some disposition
among the frienda of human rights, ia our atate, to form
a third political party. Thi 1 deeply regret, and 1 feel
great humiliation at the evident division now existing
among our frienda East Mr. Garriann and hia support

ucond party, or a political abolition party. While Mr.
Tappao and other remain aa they firrt set out, opera,
ting upon the public mind by "moral juasion,'' and vo.
ting for those whose election they think will best pro.
mote the cs use of civil liberty. I had fimdly hoped
that the friends of tho alavc in- Ohio might have re- -mained

be diminished by division, nd in time, perhapa, like

From these facts, I drsw the conclusion that the
minds of the northern whirr are prepsrinjr to set with
abolitionists; and to judge correctly on the euhject of
human right. While at pmtent there ia no hope of
brinemg sny portion of the Vsn Buren party lo favor
abolition while the President and his papr, and all hia
leadinj? frienda perweiite ami revile all who spprwlste"
the vslue of our national riphts; andthirdly, I conclude
that the whig party generally will be willing;, without 1.
