REPEAL OF THE COMPROMISE.

az know the scheme of those who con
triEed the deed, and tho hard work they
had in bringing some of itssubseqent cham
pions up to the sticking point It WAS a
plot for political power, hatehed by polite
ians unknown to the people, and intended
to mako Presidents by welding the Slave
States into unit upon the Slavery ques-
tion, governing the nomination by two-thirds
rules and procuring for the Free States, by
dint of federal patronage, the twenty-nine
votes which were necessary to carry the cleo
ton. They had hard work to pass it
menacing the aspiring, coaxing the weak,
seducing the yenal. Indemnity in public
offices was openly promised to those who
would betray their constituents promise
which has been faithfully kept; and the only
one of all that it made, which has been
kept by this Administration.

The time has come when truth and right
Must wrestle hard with wrong and might
When men with noble hearts 10 feel
For human voc and human veal
When men who love "our oountry's' name,
And seek for her enduring fsme,--
Must stand together side BY side,
To save the country Of ourpride
Now DER her verdant vales and hills
There hangs cloud Of threat'ning ills.
Afar from Ger the sea has come
A martial sounds and war at hOns,
By "BOTder FlukaEs" ruthless hand,
Would spread destruction Ger the land, -r.-.a
Then rouse yei brothers strong and brave;
Aroosei our glorious land to save.
We need a leader true and tried. ..-
A noble one we've found 10 guide;
A man with fearless heart and warm,
Hes Just the man TO brave the storm.
He who Ger the Rocky Mountain SHOWS
Has pressed will frighten Freedom foes.
Then rouse vel brothersi hand in hand,
For Fremont and for Freedom stand. NETTIR.

Buchanan has been seeking the nomina-
ton for the Presidency for about twenty-five
years. In 1886 he was repudiated by his
party for Van Buren, and he was turned off
for Polk, IN 1848 for Cass, and in 1852 for
Pierce. In 1856 he will be turned out to
Commons" and like a Babylonian we read
of, will have poor fodder the rest ofhis days.

HOW MORMON FISH DON'T BITE AT THE BARE

"The term of the Mormon Governor
Brigham Young, expired three years ago.

The Administration was afraid of him,
and undertook to out-maneover him, and
that in the highest style of West Point tao
.ics; they determined to smuggle the Ad-
ninistration Governor Steptoe in. For that
the Military Governor was furnish
ID with battalion of soldiers, and direc-
ed to proceed to the Mormon Kingdom, as
he was going to California-stop there to
hibernate, and, watching the chance, slip
nto the governorShip some. day when Brig
lan was out-something like aweazle that
,ets into another hole when he finds the
occupant gone When I heard of this fine
cheme, l said to my acquaintance that
he next time we should hear of this Gov
rnor Steptoe again he would be on his tip
oes, marching to the tune of "Hey, Betty
lartin, tiptoe fine" and so it was. Forbe-
ore the hybernation was over, he was on
is march in good turth to California, to re- :
urn thence to the United States.
But there was something else which did 9
OF foresee, which was that this Military
Governor carried off four dozen of the Bet
I Martins with him, to the infinite distress
the saints. Such is the insurgent condi-
on of the polygamous kingdom of the
after Day Saints. < This
lministration is actually responsible to the
oral sense of the civilized world for the
resent continuance of polygamy in the
erritory of Utah." =
