The GERMANS OF BosToN.-At meeting
of the Germans held the other evening in the
Turner's Hall, Boston, DR.. Wesselheeft pre-
siding, it was resolved that, as the so called
Democratic party is in the service of the
Shareholders, and has, aided by the present
Administration, betrayed the rights of the
people of Kansas, and sided by the border
ruffians; and as the Infamous attack on the
freedom of speech in the assault of Preston
S. Brooks on Senator Sumner is justified
and applauded by the Southern press, there
by proving the utter decentralization of the
South, and the necessity of battling against
the spread of Slavery therefore, it is plain
ly the duty of German citizens to Join the
Republican party, as the only one possessing
political honesty and integrity. 1t was also
resolved to send copies of the resolutions to
Senator Sumner and the other representa-
| tives of Massachusetts in Congress.

A CoNTRAsT.-Whcn a company of ship
carpenters, on their way from Lake Erie to
Philadelphia, passed through Harrisburg
during the war of 1912, the Pennsylvania
Legislature honored them with reception
in the Capitol of that state. But Buchanan
full Of bitterness and hatred towards all who
participated in that struggle, refused to re-
main in his seat while the ceremony of re-
ce.ving the gallant mechanics was proceeding.
When Fremont's soldier companions were
dying amid snows and starvation on the
Rocky Mountains, and when the few survi-
vors, worn out and exhausted, unable to go
further, lay down to die, the gallant Ere
mont proceeded alone aud on foot, through
the SHOWS and forests and mountains, many
miles in search of succor and relief for his
dying companions and he found it, and re-
turned to cheer and to save them.
Let these incidents tell their own story.
