democratic candidate for the Vice Presi
dency, il has been selected by the southern
iederalists and wings as their most untIrinl
theme Of vitupera.ion.
Well knowing the sensitiveness OF the
slave holding States on the subject of the
black population and slavery, the present
wing party, like their prototype, the fed
eralists, have endeavored 10 falsify Mr..
Van Buren's position in reference to the
Missouri question. They would make il
appear that he was opposed to the admis
sion of that State into the Union as Q
slave holding State. Like most Of the
other Misrepresentation of Mr.. Van Blu.
rem, this is without the least foundation.
So far from Mr.. Van Buren's being oppo.
sed 10 the admission of Missouri upon The
terms alleged, he evinced contrary feelings
In very notorious and public manner =
A public meeting about the time spoken Of
was called at Albany to discuss this very
exciting topic. 1t consisted of the friends
and opponents of the State administration.
A memorial to Congress was agreed upon,
containing injurious expressions in regard
to slavery in the southern States. When
Mr.. Van Buren, was called on TO sign it,
he distinctly and unequivocaIly refused,
and expressed his dIsapprobation of the
sentiments contained in the memorial, so
strongly and publicly as to involve himself
in an angry controversy on the subject
This, too, was at a time when abolitionism
had not given the question that deep po-
liIicaI and social Importance it has now
assumed, and which has frequently since
induced Mr.. Van Buren, to declare, IN the
language of his letter to his North Caro-
lima friends, that ''he would go into the
Presidential chair the iaferible and un-
compromising opponent Of any attempt on
the part Of Congress to ABOLISH SLAVERY
IN THE DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA, against
the ,cishes of the slare holding States,
and with the determination equally deci-
ded, TO RESIST THE SLIGHTEST INrERFE-
RENEE with the subject in The States where
it exists"
1t would be supposed that such testi-
mony should satisfy every one as regards
Mr.. Van Buren's views on the subject Of
slavery. But there are those, who alike
reckless of truth and fairness, are again
cndeavorng TO make political capital ou
of these of retuled misrepresentation.

APPALLING SITUATION.

The ridge or shelf along which we ira
yelled, was fenced in on one side by the
mountain. which rose almost perpendicu
larly thousands of feet above my head
while beneath me, beyound its outer edge
was a sheer precipice, defending 10 the
depth of the valley, from which l had been
toiIing upwards for two weary hours;
while, as if 10 render the gloomy abyss
still more unnviting, the hoarse echoes OF
torrent, which was roaring and tumb.
ling among the scattered fragments OF
rock, that had been storm-riven from the
mighty mass above, and hurled into the
plain during countless centuries, came TO
the ear with dissonance that seemed al
most supernatural. The tabled bridge oil
AL Sirat, over which the Moslem is to pass
to the paradise, must be, should imagine
alb pu as ample and convenient pathway
to spirit, as that proved, which was
now so blindlv following, to traveller in
the flesh. AS l advanced further along
the ridge, the wary animal that rode,
with extraordinary sagacity, made po'nt
d'appui of the rocky wall by which we
were built in on our left hand; and, at each
step that he took, my knee came in con.
tact with the inequalities Of the surface
Thus we proceeded for about four hun
bred yards, when, as | CHANGED to cast my
ewes into the abyss beside me, the horse
suddenly stopped; and, glancing forward
to ascertain the cause Of his halt, dlscov.
cred that the shelf upon which we stood,
or rather hung, was at that point absorbed
in the outline of the mountain, and that we
could not pass further, save to instant de-.
struction. | am no craven; but | shall
never forget my sensations at that in

BY which l was surrounded, speeches.
and motionless, while my horse remained
equally passive, and each seemed TO have
been suddenly stricken into stone. MY
brain whirled; could not think, could
not pray: was utterly powerless, mind
and body Human help there was none,
there could be none; and my only conscl-
BUSINESS was conviction that was wholly
in the power Of the equally jeopardlzed
animal, whose next movement would in
all probability, hurl me to horrible and
CHASTITY death! For full two minutes
which to me, in such position, appeared
to have endured for us man. hours--we
remained upon that dizzy point. The
sharp wind whistled past us as it angered
by new impeachment, the torrent leaPed
and roared at the bottom of the gulf, and
the mountain gavo back its thunder in
hollow murmurs. scarcely felt the one
or heard the other; oil my senses were
concentrated in vision, as, with dllated
eyeballs, glared downwards into the aw

ly, that he approves the present tariff
What reason, then, sir, will you give your
old compatriols in South Carolina, for cas-
ting your vote for Mr.. Clay? Will you
lei your feelings of personal friendship,
or your admiration of the genius of Mr..
Clay induce you 10 support man, who
advocates principles fraught with The dead
Lest hostility 10 the prosperity OF the whole
South? If even you do not vote for him,
you recommend him to the American peo-
pie. What an anomalous state of things
is this, the champion of notification rec
ommending the apostle of protecton!-
Sir, the impressions received in youth are
the strongest; when but boy, learned
the dangerous influence of the protective
system upon Southern interests. 1t was
from your lips | learned those lessons,
conveyed in that commanding eloquence
which you are master of, and they are in
delibly engraved upon my mind and heart.
Then, sir, in the name of the memorable
struggle of 80, and by the ashes of the
immortal Hayne. who fought by your side
against protection, ] invoke you to come
out at once, and boldly answer the follow
ing questions: lst, Do you believe the
present tariff as protective in its operation
as that OF '29?-2d, Do you not know
that Mr.. Clay approves it?--and Sd, Will
you vote for him?

From the North Carolinian.

Speaking of this Mr.. Baer the wing
speech.maker, reminds us of letter he
wrote in 1912. He was in 1910 great
wing orator, but in 1912, (HIs PAY having
probably been stopped) he came out
against Mr.. Clay; but now we suppose
the price has again been paid, and he is a
patent Clay man. See what he said in
lS42-the letter is genuine and may be
relied upon:
PHILADELPHIA, June 20, 1912.
Col. Sandy Harris
Dear Sir: received your letter on be-
half of the committee appointed by the
friends of Mr.. Tyler, inviting me TO tes-
tival 10 be held al McArran's Garden, on
the 4th of July. Having performed, as |
conceived, my duty TO the people during
the campaign of 1910, had intended to
retire altogether from the field of politics;
but recent events have reused me up, and,
if they have no, brought me back into the
field, have at least given me a strong in
clnation that way.
They talk about Mr.. Tyler's broken
pledges. 1t is a notorious fact, that during
the Presidential canvass, those who took
the stump for "Tippecanoe and Tyler too"
tried 10 impress upon the people, on all
occasions, the fact that the National Bank
was not one Of the measures before the
people. When the opposition cried out
Bank Party WE DENIED TT, FOR ONE,
land | believe others also,) from honest
convictions. The people voted the ticket
under the impression that Harrison was
not BANK MAN; they were helped in
this belief by HIS OWN declarations, and
because Mr.. Tyler, who was on the ticket
with him, ras and Arrays had been an
anti.bank man. So soon, however, as the
wings proper (the Clay men) got major.
ily in Congress, under the popularity of
the good old man now gone to Heaven,
they tried to cram down bank upon the
people; and when John Tyler vetoed it,
they cried out "broken pledges" They
were the pledge-breakers, and acted like
the man who, after picking pocket, cried
out 'stop thief" louder than the rest OF the
crowd.
Yours,
JOHN W. BAER.

PRINTERS PROVERBS.

Never inquire thou of an editor for the
news, for behold it is his duty at the APP
pointed time TO give it unto thee without
asking.
Ills not fiji that thou shouldst ask Of him
who is the author of an article, tor his
duty requires him to keep such things 10
himself.
When thou dost enter into a printing
office, have a care TO myself that thou
dost not touch the type, for thou mayest
cause the printer much trouble.
Look not at the copy which is in the
hands of the composltor, for that Is not
meet in the sight of the printer.
Neither peep over the outside while il
is being struck off, or look over the shout
ders of the editor while he is reading
proof.

/; appears that up to the year lo4O the
United Ststes Government actually had not re-
paid Itself the cost, including the surveys Of the
lands actually purchased of the Indians. Two
facts appear from this

generally supposed.
I'd. That # thc Government were now to ds.
tribute the proceeds OF the public lands in past
time, there would be no proceeds to distribute

quantity OF surveyed lands on hand, and that lie
surveys are nearly completed; SO that in future
there is some prospect tnat the Treasury may
receive something from the public lands. But
