Black baIled BY the Black Republicans.

The National Era publishes an article from
this paper, in which we speak our minds very
freely about the disunionists, who have banded
together and stolen the respectable name OF
Republicans. II adds
1.-THE American Organ is a candidate for the
House printing. Let every member, who wishes
to be called Republican, remember that interest.
ing fact in connexion with this fattering article"
We approhend that it scarcely needed that
the Era should impress the fact of our hostili-
ty, az a reason why the Blackies should not
patronizc US, even if we were so recreant to
every sense Of propriety as to ask their suffra-
ges. We imagine the colored organ itself has
sent circulars to the returned members" and
is in pleasant anticipation of pocketing the
Federal shekels. In very complacent article,
written to show how the election Of an Adolf
ton President win work, the Era says 1.-THE
government may legtimately use its patronage
and influence to encourage the growth of prin-
ciples congenial with its own; and can it be
doubted that eminent success will attend the
exercise of power on the side Of freedom?"
1t even contemplates the conversion Of the
Washington Union, by the power Of pap, to the
advocacy of its own sentiments OF course the
Union will have been bought out and will
pass by delivery of the Treasury key to the Era
people, or some of the same stamp. How con
iidently it speaks Of the material aid TO car
ry out the wishes of the people:
1--WE shall then expect to see the Washington
Union SHOULD it survive the loss of government
patronage) become the clamorous advocate of Civ
ing to the people of the District the right to abol
ish slavery within its limits. We have no doubt
that Republican Congress and President will ac-
cede to 30 reasonable demand, and that mate.
rial aid will be given to carry out the wishes Of
the people"

We have had, says the Alexandria Gazette
within the last few weeks some words Of encour
agement ss to public sentiment on the great
question Of USioS, both from the North and the
South. Ultraism at the South has had its day
and, if we could find or raise up party at the
North, willing to crush ultrasm there too, we
might yet hope for the safety and prosperity Of
our country. The attempt making to bring about
fusion Of all parties at the North so as to form
a great anti-sayery party, as we have already
stated, may have the very opposite effect from
that intended. These Black Republicans" as
they are now called, may, instead Of fusion for
produce fusion against themselves; and the
patriots of the North who now take a bold and
decided stand for the Constitution and the Union,
will have the whole South and Southwest to back
and sustain them. Surely, these elements com.
bined, can make head against the disunonists.
We will not yet despair of the republic, though
the course of events hitherto has not been Of a
favorable nature.

The San Francisco correspondent of the Jour,
nal of Commerce furnishes the following.
About two years since one Of our Oldest and
wealthiest citizens left this city TO visit New York
leaving very large estate in the hands Of hi.
lawyer, who was eminent in his profession, both
here aid in one of the Carolinas. lie gave his
agent full powers The estate was somewhat en-.
numbered, and the agent allowed everything 10
20 by default The property was all sold, squan.
dered-the agent himself purchasing everything
under foreclosure by the sheriff. Thus matters
went on, when the agent sold out to bis own
brother all the property 80 acquired, and took
his departure for the sunny South, rich man.
About six months since, our friend and fellow
citizen returned in good health, his habits Of life
entirely reformed. lie left rich man, and re-
turned TO find all his estate clean swept from him
by one whom he had esteemed his friend. lie
at once employed counsel, and began ferreting out
the whole scheme Of roguery-commencing divers
suits at law for the recovery of all his property.
His former agent became alarmed, and he author
lied a a recently arrived United States Circuit
Court Judge to compromise the matter for him.
On investigation il appeared that the agent had
really expended about ten thousand dollars in
caring for his property. This he paid, and now,
although the agent and an ex-senator had sold
all the property TO his brother yet strange as ii
may appear the whole entire property, principal
interest, amounting in value to over one hundred
thousand dollars, has all been handed over and re.
conveyed back to the legal and rghtful owner, and
that too in season to give fellowcitizen ample
means for the enjoyment of a green old age.
There are facts.

Democratic AristOcracy.

In describing large and enthusiastic ratif-
cation meeting held at Little Rock, the Arkan-
sas Gazette gives the following terse summary
of the state of parties in that State In re-
gard to the aristocratic Democracy, which the
people are just finding out, we may remark,
that it is favorite system Of party government
TO take the name and monopolize the Offices
in the gift of a dominant party, without enter
tanning single sentiment in common with
them. Speaking of the Americans the Ga
zette says:
That this party has made such rapid strides of
advancement in the State of Arkansas has been a
matter of surprise to some; but no rejecting man,
who has observed the tide of political affairs in
this State for any considerable length of timc can
look upon its rise and progress among us as
strange. Among the reasons, we note, as most
prominent, the following:
First. The State is largely Democratic, and the
platform Of the American party, adopted by the
Philadelphia Convention, embodies more of the
elements of pure American Democracy than any
ever offered to the people of the United States.
Second The issues between the old parties are
obsolete, and the American party offers a plat
form on which all Americans can meet and har-
monte.
luifu. w pidtorIH duoptcu Ny any party cialni-
ing to be national ever offered such guarantees to
the South ard the institution of slavery as that OF
the American party at Philadelphia.
Fourth. The State of Arkansas has been mis-
ruled by a set Of political tricksters, who, while
they claim to be Democrats are the veriest exclu-
sonists and lousy arstocrats in the world. Hence
they denounce all members of the Democratic
party who honorably aspire to any public position
before the people, as "dspiring" "unruly" or
"unmanogeabie" Democrats; and when one joins
himself to the American party, the kith and kin
of the family are congratulated on their gain, in
the loss Of man who was anxious to fill one of
"our Offices"

TRIUMPH or AMERICAN REAPING MACHINES AT
THE PARIS EXHIBITION. trial Of American,
French, and English machines for cutting and
gathering up corn, hay, &c, and which are now
10 be seen at the exhibition, took place on Thurs
day at Trappes, Count de Gaspar presiding.
large number Of persons were present; six tents
were erected, and large quantities Of potables
provided, which, from the great heat OF the day,
we're in general request. Mr.. Daily, on whose
property the experiments took place, had a spe-
cia tent erected, under which he Hospitality enter
tanned the members of the jury and other invited
guests. There were nine machines on the ground,
two French, four American, and three English.
At giving signal they commenced at their trial,
which was to cut down 1888 square yards Of oats.
The American machine Of Mccormick completed
it's task In a mastery manner in seventeen min
utes, the second American machine took twenty
three minutes, and the third twenty-four minutes.
The other machines took from thirty-four minut, s
to one hour and twenty minutes to perform their
work.
The next trial was to cut down and gather up a
given quantity of lucerne when the palm of yicto.
ry again fell to the machine of Mccormick.
Two Of the French exhibitors have offered the
produce Of the sale one Of billiard table and the
other Of a handsome iron bedstead, to Prince Ma
poleon for the benefit Of the widows and orphans
Of the army of the East and one OF the Dutch ex.
hbitors has given the whole Of the proceeds Of the

officer killed at Sebastopol. The Prince has graf.
uitously accepted these offers, and given orders

A MIDNIGHT VLLANY.-The Montgomery Mail
states that as the train which left West Point on
Saturday night for Montgomery was entering the
eastern limits Of the village of Cuseta, gun was
fred at the persons on the engine The assasina-
ting deed had its appropriate hour-mdnight.
Mr. Gordon, TIE engineer, was not struck but
- Nudge, fireman, received flesh wound in the
arm from one shot. When the train stopped in
the village, to put of passenger, several persons
came out to it. stating that they had heard the re.
port of the gun. II is to be hoped that, ere this,
they have ferreted out the assassin, Who when ap-
pretended, should be turned over to court Of
railroad engineers for punishment
