Last week we stitted that fhe Liberfy party occupied the only ground on which a party can be orgamzed at the Nortl). that wül successfully coniénd against the S lave Power. We also expressed oor belief that many of theshrewder Whigs vrerealready aware of this, and were endeavoring to induce the Whig party to takeantislavery ground to sorae cxtent, as the best means of re-establishing the ascendency of their political party. '_ The New York Courier and Enquirer is one of the largest Whig papers in the country, the one which first proposed that the party should assume the appellation of Whigs. The Courier regularly and formally reads the N. Y. Tribune out of the Whig party for being guilty on two charges- Treason to the Union, and Treason to tlie Whig party. The following "ctract is quoted from the Tribune, as containing the subject matter of thtïse charges:"What remains to be done? We say, Resist the consummation of the Annexation scheme to the last. Let Connecticut, Rhode Island, and other free States, do their duty in their Congressional Elections, and the rnischief may be arrested in the next Congrees, but if not, xee shall not yet give it up. We sball iry, on one hand, to induce Texas lo abolish Slavery gradually if not immedialely; and if Freedom is allowed to discuss the matter, we sball have great hopes of earlysuccess. Failing or pending this, il any person in a free State shall be claimed asa fugitive Slave from Texas, let his seizure be legaïly resiste?, the case carried up to the United States Suprcme Court. Let us see whether a bare majority of the Senate has power to bind our peopleto any other peopte they may fancy, and thus make us part and parcel o) another Uuion than that to which the present States have in any way assented. Whether this shall succeed or not, letus raise the question of admisslon with Slavcry on every new State from Texan territory which raay present itself. The stipulation of impuniíy Cor Slaverjsputh of 36 deg. 30 min. is no compromisoria no settlement of the question- but o simple betrayal of that trust on the part of the Northern Annexaüonists. We have no respect for it- we willnot be governed Jry it-it has no moral, and certainly no legal forcé. .If there be but principie and firmness in the free States, we shall soon make the Texan conspiratorssickof their triumph."The Courier quotesthe following trom the Syracuse State Journal, a prominent Whig paper, in further evidence of the conspiracy to betray the Whig party into the hands of Abolitionism: "What is to le done?- -'This ís a momentous enquiry, and is trembling upon the lips of anxious thousands. He is no free man, or true man, whose heart beats in unisón withthe interestsor counselsof slavery, or whose blood does not kindie with the thonght that this Government ii to be used as an engine for fabricating fetters for the limbs of bondmen, and propagating principies that are disavowed by the worst tyranaiës of Europe. But what are we to do? What can we do, in view of the great wrong inflicted upon the Conslüufion- upon lïumanity, Justice, Religión, and the Sym-patJiies of the Age, by the Annexation of Texas and the provisions for incorporating fve new Slave States intothisconfederacy? Thai is the Questionf How are we to undo i this wrong? How shall we trammei up the consequences of this iniquity? How disarm Annexation of itsdeadly sting, and turn that which was meant for evil into pood?"There can be but one answer to these j important enquiñes. It is contained in the emphalic language of tha Albany Evening Journal. 'LET THE WHIG PARTY NOW RAISE THE STANDARD OFEMANCÍPATION!' Let the friends of Liberty and the Constüution unite to stay the progress of the foulplague that threatens us with so many dangers. Let us embrace the present opportunity for advancing the line of our intrenchments in opposition to Slavery and lts adjuncts. The occasion is one for cutting some of the bands which have hitherto bound us to the 'peculiar institututions' of the South. One by one we must sever tbese ties. Slavery has made Mi immense stríde towards universalination - be it our duty and pleasure to Tepel its attacks, to undermine its supports, to roll back upon itself the tidej with which it svould fain overwhelm us. - Slavery no longer relies upon the guaranties of the Constitution, and defies the liberalizing and humanizing spirit of theday. We, too, are absolved from the responsibility of leaving it even to its own custody anddefence. "Thereisbuta single uHernative left.to the.FftEEMEN of the North. The issue is forced upon us; it is not of our seeking, but rea.son and patriotism díctate its immedíate ádoption. Whilsttho black Jlag ' of Slavcry acquires ncw folds nuil darkeB9 a wider portion of the horiron in cSouth, let the xoliile Unner of Freedom, Equality and Emancipation, stream higher and bronder in the North! This isour true policy as a party- if is oút tn.e courscas men and Christians." The foliowing is also quoted from the Albany Evcning Journal, the leading Whig paper in State politics: What is tobe done? Mr. Birnoy's faclion wilJ probably sny 'pctlt5011-' Let them peliuon Congress. Tlymightas well petition South Carolina or. i exas. The Loco Focos will say- watt, wait, forbear, forbear.

" The Courier, ufter ching these cvi dences of Treason in the Whig camp, thus winds ap its article:As Wliigs we: shall forevcr protest against the manñer in which Texas has been admitteii.but shall submil lo ttic wrong sooner than resort to disunion, or what weconsider the same Úúng- 'Ratse the standard of Abomtion.' Independent of the treason to the Union of whicl every Whig would beguilty whoshould consent to rally underlhe Bannerof ABOLITÍON1SM, as an act of politicaJexpedicncy, it is absolute madness. lts foíly is only exceeded by its wickedness, and any man of common sense must a once percéive tíiat eVen if by enüsting under the Banner of Treason to ihc V ninn the Whigs could carry New York they would lose every Southern irnd Western State. This movent, therefore has not the vwt'e's pleaof -party excedí ene]) to reccornuiend it; it would not evei elect Dudley Selden Mayor, much less give us a Whig Common Council; while it would cover forever with infamy the name of Whig, and inevitably lead to the destruction of our Union." Thusthe Whig party have fairly entered onan investigation in answer to the momentous inquiry tliat presses üpon them- "What shalü we done?" Wc shall see to what conclusión they will arrive.
