Bowron, March 7, 1866, the New Hampshire Blection—Some Fhets Showing the Views of the Granite Stale Democracy om the Subject of Slavery for Southern Consumption—Their ‘Now’? Om- trasted with their “ Then,”” ‘There ia ‘ess said about the New Hampshire election, which wiil take place op the 11th of Mareh, than might have been ooked for, considering its importance and how much is staked upon ts decirion. Whether this proceeds from indifference, or trom the belief that the whole allair is of the nature of a furegone conclusion, it wou'd be difficult: to say. The ncmination of Mr. Fill- | more may be attended wi.b the effect of adng the de- moerats there, and may pr ve to | ave been a most ill timed event to their oppoven's. There 1s enough of old whiggery left in New Hampebire to cause some trouble in the a sied camp, the whig con'ingent to which ts both large and respectable. Ths ‘ree sollers must look upon the American nomins ion wih feelings that can be ima- gined without difficulty, whereas the whigs of the old school may think it a very good one; and they are suffi- ciently nomerous to make iy # matter of extreme pru- dence not to oflexd them Iu a close contest, their sim- ple withdrawal {rom the battie might give vietory to the democrats, and therefore they must be treated well, ani their opicions, and even their prejudices, be respected. In the meantime, the rusion papers are Isying then. selves liable to the charge of crueity to politisal animals by publishing what the aemocrats of New Hampshire used todeanl toray about “slavery eud the slave power,” from which 1t would seem that in former times Presi- deat Pierce, Mr. Wells and the rest of the New Himp. shire democrats were accastomed to hold opinions and to inculeate them strongly, for holding aad inyuleating which they row cherge meu with beicg ab l'ti mists aud evemies of the Union. I propose, with your permissioa, to avali myself of their labors, to show to the Hkratn’s Southern readers to what an extent the administration nd its Northern supporters reck to impose upon the South, merely for the purpo:e ot getting the Sou’h’s aup port, while they would ssi toe latter to the Garrijonians to-day if they thought they could make anything by the wansaction. Besides, these facts may be foun! useful in the coming Presicentia! contest, aud it is proper taat they shoula be “kept bef re tae people.”? ‘The Democratic State Convention of New Hampshire in 1846, waa held Getober 15, and was addressed by Yrenklin Pierce and Charles G.

There would be no sense in attempting to dirgaise the fact bat the anti-slavery sentiment is so strong in Massach weits as to render it impossible for the Philade phia nominations to be ratified except under conditions of great riek to the ratifiers. Those romivations were just about the worst that could have been wade for this latitude.
