party proclaimed ia Massachusetts and Fc0 Yorkf
discard all other questions, keep them allegiance, and
make is great question Of freedom abnre all
ohers-ee carry every State IN this Gaon IN 1856"
Such the declaration of Senator Wilson, of Massachu
setts the late black republican meeting New York
Did this boast from of less influence posi-
ton in the republican ranks we should pass it by as
species Of gasconade too contemplate to deserve
ments notice. but coming it does, from VIM H. Sew
ards travelling missionary may be worth while to consid
er for upon what ground Mr. Wilson bases his
seemingly wild hopes Of success for certainly it does
of insanity for him any Of his brother repuh
cans dream of finding in the South who would
dare advocate such doctrines contained in the
publican platform adopted New York.
In the succeeding paragraph of the same speech Mr..
Wilson makes revelation of the foundation upon which
his extraordinary hopes based. II is as follows:
d In 1854 for the first time in the history Of the country
carried the House Representatives by three hundred
and fifty thousand popular maority and gentlemen, the
election Of Nebraska House OF Representatives did
endanger the Union; and tell you the election Of
President in 1856 win endanger the Union
the peace repose and harmony of the country
Our southern friends in particular win remember how
loud and prolonged the shouts of cxulaon as in
the dark They viii remember too by whom these shouts
given.
The southern now-nothng organs and orators claimed
every election the northern States in which tho emoc
rscy defeated as great Aerean victory, having no
regard for the freesol and abolition procvies of the
candidates elected Then they said We hare carried nc
House Of Re1resentatoes' Now Senator Wilson and
brothers say We carried tr And, moreover they tell
that it is aatNeJraska House which WE have car
ried And !" We the @we" are going to carry
every State in the Union in 1867 for can anNebraska
President
And So Mr.. Wilson, you and the black republicans are
calculating upon the aid and support OF all those men at
the South who reoiced the election of "entNebras
ka House" We free to confess that tie action OF
these former brethren of yours in the South might very
readily lead you into the belief that they intended 70 CO.

RUNAwAY.--Last Wednesday evening Q
span Of horses belonging to Mr.. LoREEzo
'BRADLY Of this place, became frightened BY
bonfire and the "noise and confusion" Of
the boys around it, got advantage of their
driver, ran awsy, completely demolishing o

four persons who were in the wagon, as well
as those in the street, In iminent jeopardy.
That no bones were broken or lives lost, is
almost miracle. Have we no Ordinances
, against such thingsi II we have, have we
no officers TO see these Ordinances, execu-
ted five have not, will not the Council
take the requisite measures to prevent DAN
gers Of this kind! Night after night has
our Public Square been lighted up by bon
fires, and "night rendered hideous" by the
noise of the boys. 1t is to be hoped that
this warniag will be sufficient, and that nei-
ther property nor lives will again be endan-
gered in this way.
