fast people. The old stage coach has been
run off the track, and like the poor Indian,
has had TO seek location further vest
Steam boats and railroads are voted but a
small improvement on the canal packet; /;
even the telegraph fails to meet the expec-
talon of the fast people. Therefore to
keep up with the times it becomes necessary
to take paper, and then to be sure that
you are not on the slow train, fail not to
read the advertisements.

The Presidency and slavery.
The article below is from the Kentucky
Weekly News, published at Newport
The editor assails the peculiar institution
with great deal of yigor. There are men
even in Kentucky, who dare to speak out
against the degrading system:
"The next Presidential contest will be,
"Shall Slavery or Freedom rule America 90
The answer will be a tremendous shout oi
'Treed0m! FREEDOM! FREEDOM +! "
We presume that the DeCourcey Democ-
racy here will take the side of SLAVERY and
oppose freedom; consequently it will moi
be long until this faction denounses slavery
like its leader did Know -Kothingism, when
he found it TOO weak to elect him. We are
astontshed to see such curious freaks oi
terror and hypocrisy in men, and not a few
in this State would tremble 10 declare right
out that they were either friend or foe
to the peculiar institution" They say
they don't want to NEEDLE with it one way
or the other The truth is that the great
mass of the people are, in their hearts, op,
posed TO slavery, but, for the want of cour.
age, they dare not declare it, and are hush
ed into silence by the frown Of slave mas
tiers; but this feeling should not exist; nc
man should feel himself subservient to an
other; all are citizens of Kentucky alike
and every man in the State has right, as
a citizen, to support or reject her institu
lions. Does any one deny this? Certain
ly not. Why, then, should any one b
afraid to express his sentiments for o.
against slavery, or for or against any Other
existing evil? We are opposed to slavery
and we publicly proclaim that opposition
believing, as we do, that slavery is sin
repulsive to humanity and clog to the vi
tai interests of our State, to education anC
the prosperity of our people. Those Wit
think differently, and choose TO oppose US
are welcome to do so in the columns Of thC
.News. This We consider democratic, opeI
and fair; and if our opponents will bu
come out and express their sentiments lik
we do, face foremost to the world, it vii
uncap the pent up pillows, smouldering il
the dreaded pit of disuniOn and bring tn
North and South together upon the plat
form OF REASON, and ike brothers agree up
on plan for the quiet and peaceable abo
Iition of all manner of slavery in the Unite
States. Free discussion expands the miuc
destroys ignorance and banishes the covet
Gus demon lurking in the human breast
and we have no doubt that the subject c
slavery now before the Democracy of New
port will be productive OF much good.
Let it be remembered that the grea
question before the American people wi
, be, "Shail Slavery or Freedom rule Amer
ica."
