and grasps with an eager hand for the
reins of government. If it succeeds, if it
elects President, and gets possession
of both Houses of Congress, it will carry
out its infamous circle of measures; the
repeal of the fugitive-slave law, the abol-
ishment of slavery in the District of
Columbia, interdict the inter-slave trade
between the States, restore the Missouri
restriction, and refuse to admit any more
slave States Who is it that does not
know the Union would not survive an
hour? Our danger is not from the Pope,
not from foreigners, but is from the abo-
litionists. What, then, is our first SOL
emn patriotic duty 1t is that we should
band together as one man. 1t is that
we shonld each bring his former predju-
dices and lay them down upon the altar

to, and fight alone for, the preservation
of the Constitution and the Union

from the North and up from the South
and, gathering in solid column around
the constitution, declare that the rights
of the South, the just equality of the
States, the capacity of man for self-gov-

that they will protect that constitution
against all the assaults of all the ismS in

every Farmer is convinced that in order to Get
his land in permanent productive order, phos-
pilates are absolutely necessary. There can be
no permanency without it.
As it seems to be impossible TO supply the de-
mand for Bone Dust, Farmers need not. in our
Judgment have the least hesitation in using the
Columbian as a substitute for Bone. as il con.
tains nearly double as much phosphoric acid as
the bone, andmuch cheaper in price, taking the
phosphoric acid as n basis. We ask a very
