PnoGnnssivB AuoLirioNisM —W«e havo ' progres-ive domoccacy'—why should we not havo * progressive abolitionism r' That prin ciple as it \-, hai progressed backwirds; and Iiko a poor tinker, has made nn re holes than it has mended. Without libeialing a single slave, it has added the equivalent of fit o slave States to the Union. Suc/i progress is not of a character likely to be of much service lo the slave, and should be deemed to be satisfactory to reflecting men. To all such, therefore— particulaily to thoso who have become con- -vincod'tlia.t there is no great moral triumph to be achieved by constantly fighting for tho enemy—a new movement upon the political abolition che.-s-board, is considered indispen sable. 1*11 .11 movement.is this—to take the ground that the Constitution extends no shield over the slaveholder, and that Conpros has full control! over slavery in all the States This idea is seriously broached in tho Boston Chronicle, and tho approaching State Con vention of Massachusetts is urged to formal^' endorse the sentiment ! We presume thai tho sincere enemies-of shivery will find out, by nnd by, the true char acter of ihe ultraUt leaders of the political ubo- htipdjinriy. There is nytlTing practical about them. They are more abstractionists who would rather see the lash fall upon the slave's hack for a century, than give up their chase ifter metaphysical absurdities; at least, such an infiuAUfe mav be justly drawn from the past history of the abolition parry. ~^Roch Bern.
