The abolition papers say it is gotten up with a single eye to a free fight at the polls. He appeals to men of all parties to unite with those holding official positions in their efforts to allay undue excitement, soften the harshness of party prejudices and passions,orce of law, and call forth, if need be, the power of their districts.
