Nv BONDAGE AND NY FREEDOM. BIZ FHrD
Eatcr roucLAs. With an introduction BY DR.. James
M'canc Smith Miller, or,en & Mailigan, N.York
We are indebted to the publishers for a
prepaid copy of the above entitled work,
and shall take much pleasure in its perusal.
In these days of slavery agitation, when
that question has assumeda paramount i'm
portance politically, and threatents to cross
the thresholds Of our churches, anything of
a truthful nature having bearing upon the
subject possesses an unusual degree Of in
terest to the reader; hence We can safely
predict heavy run upon the publishers for
this biography of one whose name is SO
widely known as is that OF the colored
Douglass. In the language of another, MY
Bondage ard my Freedom" exhibits the
fire genius, and the rapidly developing pow
ers ofts author. II he is original aud pc
culias as speaker, he is equally so as
writer. We have the fullest confidence,
therefore that this work, the result of his
Iper experience and ofhis more mature judg-
ment, will not only challenge the ad-
miration of all the Friends Of Freedom,
for its spirited and irresistible Anti-Savery
facts and arguments, but of scholars, for the
directness, condensa lion, and affiuence OF
its style, and of the general reader. also,
for the graphic interest Of the story Of his
checkered and eventiul life.

THE SoFrs IN MORTON FOR CNcINNArI.--A soft
shell call has been issued for a State conven-
ton Of their faction on the 9Th Of January, to
appoint delegates to the Cincinnati National
Democratic Convention. On the immortal 9Th,
likewise, the Democratic National Executive
Committee meet at Washington, to appoint
the day for the meeting of the grand
Cincinnati Sanhedrim. Our soft shells
are, therefore, fully up to time; and this call
Of theirs foreshadows the appointment again
Of the two sets Of delegates and hards
to the national party love feast for the loaves
and fishes. In 1913 the respective claims of
the two sets were submitted to q special COM
mittee, which, after several days discussion,
reported, through the effsrts of Hopkins l..
Turney of Tennessee, in favor Of splitting
the difference, by admitting both sets. The
convention adopted the report; whereupon the
indignant softs, disguised at the idea Of being
placed upon the same democratic level with
the hards, left the convention en- masse, packed
of to Buffalo and set up that free soil Van
Buren, ticket which defeated the democratic
nominee.
The democracy of Congress, however, in
this case have laid down the law 1t Is the
Nebraska bill. Should the soft convention
agree to swallow this bitter dose, they may
yet fuse with the hards and go in. Has mo-,
