The IKinshIp of the Isms.


We would call the attention ofsl who are affected
by any of the numerous hereses growing out of the
higher law doctrine to their undenable natural atm
Ity Those who invade the business of men at the
North will not hesitate to rob others of their prop
erty at the South. Those who pretend to especial
purity in morals and sgmatize their fellow country
men as robbers of men, will not be likely to feel
much remorse in prosecuting account of religion,
IN distranchising on the ground of foreign BIRTH or
insisting on the prohibition of legal branch of bu-
sness Let those interested look to it and not trust
10 the hypocritical professions of ofice-seekers.
Every one OF the isms springs from the same root,
and IS equally opposed 10 the creed of the Democratic
party. Take Abolitionst or Free. .soiIer-he svm-
pathizes more less with the total abstinent parti-
zans of Greeley, Clark and Delavan Ask spirit
uallst what are his political views. and ten to he
will profess himself old Free -Soiler or modern
Black Republican, The professors of Free
Love-" are all red hot temperance and abolition fa-
natics. Once open the door 10 and they issue
forth IN clouds like the locusts in Egypt the crck-
cts of the Salt Lake. Those false doctrines have
| overspread and poisoned the Northern mind but the
avaunt courier of them all the insidious demon
OF political AboltiOnism. Mr.. Seward has himself
given the clue TO find the body whence The heads of
this hydra spring, in his theory of higher law
Once relax the obligations that bind to any
laws but those of his own passions and preiudices,
and government h. nor, marriageties and sink into
one mass OF undistinguishabe ruin. Some descend
lower in the grade of than others, but it will be
found that those who have adopted the more epulsVe
of these mischievous doctrines have, like the men,
bers of secret society," passed through the other de-
grees. They were first Aboftionsts, and then they
learned 20 regard marriage fraud, and thus they
progress. We feel this kindred of the isms with the
force of an intui,on.-Ns Y Nat. Democrat.

MAILING LETTERS IN THE NAIL CAUSE.-THE prac-
tice of mailing letters in mail cars along the mail
routes, instead of at post Offices has become so very
prevalent that have been requested to again call
attention to the regulations of the Post Office Depart
ment in reference to this matter Mailing letters in
the mode now so commonly practised is wrong, in
admissible, and unsafe and interferes with the leg
innate duties of route agents. 1t was never contem
plated by the laws or by the regulations of this de-
parinent that the mail car should take the place of
the post Office which is the proper place for the mail
ing as we'll the delivery of mail matter but, for
the better accommodation of tho public, IS route
agents have been permitted to receive and mail in the
cars such letters, ane such only as could not with
ordinary diligence have been placed in the post Office
before the closing of the mail.' Route agents are
therefore expected TO put an end to this indscrmi
nate reception OF letters in their cars in the manner
now so frequently and improperly practiced, :" by
closing the opening their respective cars through
which letters are despoited, and by receiuing and
mailing such only as clearly wih'n the rule abOvs
