Turn 10 the Record.

- va - w eAA> A&U~%s0
In another column viii be found the |
record of votes in the election of
Banks, and the record is what should
be investigated for facts. The people
OF the South for the last sixty days
have been harangued day in and day
out without cessation about the na-
tioaalty of those Know Nothings
who were supporting Mr. Fuller.
They cried down Mr.. Richardson
and the Democratic party in the House
for supporting him, and bowed furi-
riously because the Democracy refu-
sed to come over to them and sup
Port Fuller. Upon the other baud
the Democracy make charges of
unsoundness against Mr.. Fuller and
Northern allies, substanhate those
charges with best of evidence, refuse
to support any such man, and for
which the Know Nothings heap upon
the Democracy the full measure of
their choicest blessings
But the time comes that tries men
and what do we see? Banks Black
Republican or Aiken sound South
era Union man must be elected, and
the Democracy and Know Nothings
must be tried-their respective pro-
LESSONS of boosted nationality must
undergo the crucible. By uniting
upon Aiken the probabilities were
that they could defeat Black Repub-
licanism. They vote and what does
tho record show? The Democracy
North and South walked up to Ak
en- fair and Square, and cast their
united strength for bim--tbis is the
record. Bot how stands the other
side-do the National (?) Know
Notbings present clear record?
Let US see. An investigation of the
vetes shows the astounding fact that
not single Northern Know Nothing
of whose boasted nationality SO
much has been heard, goted for Mr.
Aikea-not one, not even Henry nj.
Fuller himself Broom aud Miller Of
Pa, Black and Whitney of N. Y,
Cullen of Del, and Davis of nd,
called National Know Nothings,
throw their votes away upon Ar.
Fuller and thus indirectly vote fer
Banks. They prefer Black Repub-
Iican to a sound national Democrat.
They hate Black Republicans but
hate Democracy worse. 1t will be
seen that two Southern men, Cullen
of Del, and Davis of Md, preferred
Banks to Aiken. Let the people,
remember that while the whole
Northern Democracy voted for Mr..
Aiken, the Northern Know Nothings
without exception opposed him.
vii! Southern Know Notbings with
these facts before them still cry up
the nationality of their order, or will
they operate with the Democracy, the
only true national party known?-

Personal abuse, in a controversy,
shows the weakness, either of ones
cause. or his power to manage it
Because he cannot rebut the argu-
ments, or meet the wit Of bis antago-
mist, he attacks his person. Hence
it is that we meet with so much per-
sonal abuse in the newspapers, and
so little editorial courtesy.

The Virginia Examiner, common

houses are less attractive than others,
instead Of deserving them or covering
before ridicule heaped upon them, let
us make them more attractive. There
is nothing to hinder US from making
Lincoln as attractive as any county.
And no one has anything to lose by
the operation, but much to gain The
merchant profits by making the ac-
Communications Of his clerks attractive.
The planter, by claiming his oyerseer
7 to bis post, not by bonds and threats,
but by attractions, loses nothing at
the end of the year. The parent can
not more efectually enchain his fam
| lily to the home circle, than by spend
Il ing such an amount as viii make home
desirable; and how could the people
fof Lincoln lose anything by making
lit our loveliest home? AS before hint
ed. some of our best citizens are con-
tinually leaving US and emigrating to
other countries, where they can enjoy
advantages denied to them here. l
have asked some of them why they
leave our fat lands, healthy country,
and civil society to go anywhere west?
And though some have complained
of our facilities for educating their
children, of a want Of sufficient pub
lie spirit, &C., in our people, still they
have uniformly intimated that these
objections could be overcome, but one
principal objection to our county that
they had despared Of ever seeing rem
edied, vas the want Of a marEet.-
Now, fellow-citizens, | contend that
good citizens are too precious to al
low them to be for ever leaving US for
so paltry a consideration as good
market, when short Rail Road would
provide this essential, and that with
out any cost to ourselves-as its adj
vantages would certainly pay US for
every dollar expended in building it.
| 1t would also make our homes, how
ever lonely they may be, more desira-
ble-would furnish an incentive to ed
fucation, to refinement, to the taste and
wealth and happiness of our people,
by bringing them in immediate con-
tact with such as are possessed of
these advantages. 1t would also do
much to remove that contemplate
public sentiment that many entertain
of us as backwoods, out of the
world, antediluyian sort of people
A great orator once claimed in my
hearing that Rail Roads "were not
only indispensable to the commercial
prosperity of people, but the great
est instrument in the civilization of a
people" More anon.

WHITE SLAVES.

Can We wonder that this term is
used BY an indignant press, Says the
St Louis Mirror when we read such
items as is contained in the following
extract which we clip from the JAM
uary number Of Hunts Merchants
Magazine? Only think of the eye.
sight of two dozen girls being sacri-
feed to pamper the luxury aud min
lister to the vhims of one indiVid-
ual. Who will attempt to sum up
,ahe amount ofhuman misery necessa-
ry to keep up the tinselpomp of Fifth
Avenue and the more than royal
extravaganza Of the northern aristoc-
racy? we suggest to the New York
Tribune and Evening Post that in
stead ofregaling their readers with
the horrors of plantation life and the
abuses of slavery, they lay before
them some of those victories of cap
ital over labor, and the sufferings of
the poor creatures whose eye-sight
and limbs-and too often lives and
honor are sacrificed to pamper the
luxury or crafty the whims of their
cruel masters and mistresses, who, on
the other hand, incur no obligation
to minister to their necessities in the
hour Of need.
If these editors really desire to act
the reformer, instead ofinaaming the
passions of the populace, in order to
gain their own selfish ends, one would
think they might find field enough
at home for all their philanthropy =
On no southern plantation will they
find so much suffering, misery and
degradation,as among the sewing-wo-
men of New York, apd no slave own
er so cruel as the bloated capitalist
OF Wall street, or The belle of Union
square, floating in embroidered silks,
Mechlin laces and costly jewels
These remarks are called forth by
reading the following:
THE LACE MANUFAcrURE.-Of all
the products of skill and manual la
Dor, few, ifany excel in elaborateness
and cost that of lace. 10 the judg
rrent of Mr.. Cummings, the discrim-
mating editor of the Philadelphia
Bulletin, its manufacture causes in
finitely more suffering and wretched-
ness than is entailed on so large a
class ofoperatives in any other work,
and beyond all comparison more than
is endured by any southern save
The entire making Of a black lace
dress for Queen Victoria, FROM the
first step to the last, once caused a
total loss Of eye-sight to some two
dozen girls. One variety of the fin
est lace is only made in very damp
cellars, so that the thread may be
kept in slightly moist condition,
such as will prevent its breaking
Any one who will, however, take the
pains to investigate this subject will
find that directly or indirectly the
manufacture of lace by hand involves,
in the state in which it at present ex-
lists on the continent Of Europe, de-
gree oflabor and suffering which is
mournful to contemplate, and which,
If generally known, might possibly
cause some ladies not to regret the
possession of, but to prize more high
" their caps and wells, when they
learn that the precious triAes have
cost not only more than their weight
in gold, but also suffering, misery, and
death.
