HOW CONSISTENT.


The editor of the Democrat, has pre-
tended to be opposed to the policy of Doug
las Il Co., all the while fattering himself
that when the National Convention should
assemble, they would repudiate the articles
of faith which this pro-SIavery democracy
declared to be the only orthodox. In this
however, the editor was mistaken, for the
Convention endorsed the policy adopted by
Douglas. They then made a pro-SIayery
lltform, which plea5es the most exacting
STAKEHOLDER, and put upon it the prince Of
oughfaces-James Buchanan. This man
the editor of the Democrat can most cordi-
ally support, and in supporting him heshOws
most plainly the hypocrisy of his course for
months past We here publish an extract
from a speech of Stephen A. Douglas, made
a few nights since, in New York city, which
clearly demonstrates the difference between
the views Of the two men:

Three cheers for Douglas Now my friends if you will

show you that Buchanan and myself have for several years

The Democrat has been whipped in and
is now a supporter of the wicked institution
of Slavery. How soon will it assent to all
that Buchanan sets forth in his letter Of ac-
ceptance?

A MIsTAKE.-The story which is told in
this vicinity, land to which we alluded last
week. Of the intention of the editor of the
Democrat to soon discontinue its publication,
is without foundation in fact. We there
fore do our neighbor justice, by quoting his
own words in the case a.
The Democrat NOT To Re DISCONTINUED either at an
early remote period in the future according to the best
information of the Editor the subject. The
rumOr in question to several months ago
but did not then deem it worthy of attention. and
should not nOw had not the Journal given it prominence
and currency by putting it into its coumns uneonradct
ed, it might be detrimental tous. The origin Of
and noee for circulating this rumor, need expana
ton and as our neghbor published it, will he do US the
JUST to publish this contradiction"
We have done it cheerfully, but neighbor
we are really sorry to see you throw aside
your manliness, and with such hot haste
mount the Douglas platform. The word
has been proclaimed by the "disorganizers,
that they chad got the Democrat about
whipped in, and that in two or three weeks
it would publish Buchanan's letter of accept
ance." There is to be a strife between the
two editors, as to who shall fawn most al
the feet of the harlot, SLAVERY, under
the ridiculous cognomcn of National Demo
Gratis. We fear, neighbor, that the "d1sor-
ganjzera7 are too many for you.

LIE NO. b, OF InlS tfHLt-Hd.Hg eulUOr, ds-
serts that the Republican Legislature ex-
empted TWENTY MILLIONS of Banking
capital from taxation. When the truth is,
the law passed by the Republican Legisla-
ture does not exempt one dollar of Banking
capital, except such as the Suprene Court
of the United States hare declared could moi
Ibe taxed, after the Locofoco oficeholders
had SPENT THOUSANDS OF DOL
LARS investigating the question, to pay
vhicb the people hare to be TAXED
This falsehood is reasserted in almost every
number of that lying sheet. In the last
number the editor repeats it, and then goes
on to say, that ''they (the Republicans have
called an extra session at an expense O.
HALF A MILLION OF DOLLARS."-
Now, how does this wise editor know how
much the extra session to be held next win
ter will cost? Did he ever know any ses
sion of the Ohio Legislature to cost anysuch
sum, or even one quarter of it? Any man
who can make such statement is either a
knave or fool.
We will close this subject, for the present
with Mr.. Botefurs Lie, No. 7. He asserts
that the Republican Legislature never made
any move on the subject of the repeal O
the Missouri Compromise, when all the
world knows that they passed very strong
resolutions on the subject, instructing oul
Senators and requesting our Representative.

Moral Courage.

Sidney Smith, In his work on moral phi
losophy, speaks In this wise of what men
lose for want of a little moral courage or
independence of mind:
"A great deal of talent is lost in the
world for the want of little courage
Every day sends to the grave number
of obscure men, who have only remain
ed in obscurity because their timidity has
prevented them from making the first ef-
fort; and who if they could be induced to
begin would In all probability have gone
great lengths In the career of fame. The
fact is that to do anything in this world
worth doing, we must not stand back shiv-
ering, and thinking of the cold and the
danger, bat jump in and scramble through
as well as we can. 1t will not do to be
perpetually calculating tasks. and adjust
ing nice chances; it did very well before
the food, where man could consult his
friends upon an intended publication for a
hundred and fifty years and then live to
see its success afterwards; but at present
man waits aud doubts and hesitates and
consults his brother, and his uncle, and
pa rticular friends, till one fine day he
fl nds that he is sixty years of age; and he
has lost so much tine In consulting his first
cousin and particular friends, that he has
no more time to follow their advice"

Effects of Cleanliness.

Count Rumford, the celebrated prac-
teal philosopher, whose writings have
been of greater value to mankind than
the abstruse speculations of host Of met
aphysicians, thus describes the advanta-
ges of cleanliness.
With what care and attention do the
feathered race wash themselves and put
their plumage in order; aud how perfect
ly neat, clean and elegant they do appear.
Among the beasts of the field we find
that those which are the most cleanly are
generally the most gay and cheerful, OIL
are distinguished by certain air of tran.
guilty and contentment; and singing birds
are always remarkable for the neatness
of their plumage. So great is the etfec'
of cleanliness upon man that il extends
even to his moral character. Virtue nev-
er dwelt long with filth; nor do believe
there ever was person scrupulously at
tentive to cleanliness who was a consum.
mate villain"

A SNAKE COMBAT.

Combats between the rattle and black
snakes are certain If they meet, and the
black snake l., with rare exceptions. the
conquerer. Upon seeing each other,
those animals instantly assume their re-
spective attitudes of defiance, and display
the great difference in their organization.
The rattlesnake coils itself up, ready for
attack or defence; the black snake, being
a constructor. moves about from side TO
side, and is in constant activity-natural-
ly exciting each others passions. The
rattle snake finally settles down In glow
ing exhibition Of anlmoslty, It's fangs eA-
osed, its rattles IN constant agitation. -
The black snake, seemingly conscious that
the moment of strife has came, nov COM
mences circling round its enemy absolute
" moving so swiftly that it seems but
CLEAN OF dull light; the rattlesnake at
ternpts to follow the movement, but soon
becomes confused, and drops Its head IN
despair; then it is that the black snake
darts upon the back of its deadly foe, seI-
zes it between its teeth, and springlng up
wards, envelopes the rattlesnake In It's
folds. The struggle though not long, is
painful; the combatants roll over III the
dust, and get entangled in the bushes, but
every moment the black snake is ighten-
ing It's hold, until the ratlesnake gasps
for breath, becomes helpless, and dies
For while the black snake stili retains
its grasp; you can perceive Its muscles
working with constant energy; but finaily
it cautiously uncoils itself. and quietly be-
takes to the water, where recovering Its
energies. it dashes about moment as IT
IN exulta,ion, and disappears from the
scene.

MAN originated in love, exists in Low e and is
perfected in love.
Love IS liberty, and liberty is love- Love
perfected requires no law to guide or control it.
Love takes no advantage, for it is based on
AFFINITY of mind and perfect adaptation
Love comes of itself-it is not forced, it does
not degrade or excite, but it is like pure spring
OF clear, living water. constantly refreshing the
thirsty.
Love produces union and union love. The
more there is of the one the more there is of the
other.
There are many degrees and qualities oflove
Its first action Is seIf-love, a proper exercise
OF which is at the foundation of all other loves
It's second manifestation is equal love to our
neighbor as ourselves, commenced in connubial
love, which, In its turn, prepares the way for
lore of the pure, true, and god-hke.
All loves are first physical. then spiritual
following their natural tendencies, from the low
