PfcrrRE OF AN hBoIiTioNlsr The
Boston Courier draws the following
graphic picture Of the genuine out and.
out Abolitionist 1t is true to the life,
and the only matter Of wonder is that a
northern Wing should speak out so bold
", and that Mr. Everett (whosc organ
we understand it to beg should be found
in coalition with such men. We should
like to know what the Courier thinks of
Mr. Evorctts nationality " now that
he is found cooperating with Messrs.
Chase, Sumner and Seward, in opposi.
ton to the policy of the administration
G1.- The above paragraph from the
Washington Union precedcs portion of
the article in the Courier of Thursday
last upon the quarrel of the Abolition
lists, and is the most precious piece Of
cool audacity which has been uttered
since Falstaf declared that instinct "
forbade him to " kill the heir apparent"
The Washington Union complains of CO.
altion with Abolitionists. when it is
hand and glove with John Van Buren,
and his Free Soil sect, who control the
administration appointments in New
York-when it has just finished an elab-
crate defence of the policy of sharing
the spoils between the two extremes of
disunionism, the Anti-Slavery men and
the nnllifcrs-and has flied its columns
with dcnunciatious of the patriotic Union
Democrats of New York who have re.
fused all fellowship with Soft Shells "
of every grade. Was there ever such IA
tuity before? The Union complains of
Mr. Everett for co. operatngn with
Mr. Sumner at tho very moment when
its brother, the National Era, is attack
ing Mr. Everett. because he does not C.
Knowledge Mr. Sumner among his polti.
cal associates. Was there ever before
such Inconsistency 1t would be very
proper to offset the Unions account with
Mr. Everett against that of the Era.
and let the two journals settle the mat.
ter between them.
The "co-operation" of Mr. Everett
with Senators Sumner, Seward and
Chase consists in the fact that he voted
for a National Democrat for printer to
the Senate. and that they did also Mr.
Everett will lose 10 flavor of nation
atty by his support # a defender Of
the Nationals Of New York. The
