What onr Ener,ics -

The New York Herald, cne Of the
ablest apd most wildly circulated Of tie
opposition Journals, in its issue of the
? .inst., speaking of the administration
says:
The wise, frsn AID impartial admins
traitor of Mr.. Buchanan has served to
tone down party p~rejudices aud animos-
tiles; and now The politicians and press
es of all parties chime in with the popt-
lar voice in giving their appreciation and
support to the course of the general CAV
eminent. With the exception OF Il few
fanatics and fire-ea;ing humbugs, North
AID South, the people of the U. States
are unanimous in their estimation of
their chief magistrate, aud it is by no
means likely that he will fail to justify
that high estimate. The country at
large is happily free from political az ta-
tiou on national questions Of an exciting
or dis'r citing character, and W. ire CO =
fdent that no uuNise steps on Mr.. Blu
ehanan's part will disturb that rerosc
which the nation enjoys.
So completely has Mr.. Buchanan met
the hopes aud wishes OF the nation. that

miserable trieksiers who still essay to
cheat the people with their miserable

TIE POWER OF THE PREss.-The
New York Past says, 'in reference to
the Press, Secretary Marcy entertained
a peculiar theory. He had j high esti-
mate of its power when it sided with the
popular feeling, bnt zone at all When
opposed to it. No party, he was wont
to observe, which was thoroughly Dem
o%cratic, could be overthrow by the
Press; and he thought that the majority
of newspapers, depending, as they did,
more upon the support of capitalists and
corporations Ihan upon the masses, was
arrayed against the 'Democlacy.' This
general position he sustained by the in
stance Of New York State-a Democrat
ic State-where the Wings generally
controlled the Press. Public men might
be, in his opinion. damaged by assaults
in the Press, but a party founded on
and conducted in accordance with Dem
ocratic principles, could rot be-"

From the Ohio Patriot
The Chicago Negro Case.

Ea
p Our Republican friends were much
gratifed a day or tRo since by the tell
issgraPAic anneuncementthas the negro
citizenship case inthe United States
Circuit Court at Chicago, had been de-
.cided in antngonism TO the bred Scott
decision by Justice Mclean, Judge
.Drumnond concurriRg Now tits not
at all surprising that Mr.. MeLeon would
seek to distinguish this case from the
bred Scott ruling, and that is all that
he has done, the opportunity being af-
.forded by the technical nature of the
pleadirgs. But it was not sufficient
that this fact should be announced, but
1t must be accompanied by the untrulh
that Judge Drummond had %concurred,
samatter rather ~unimportant in itself, but
significant of Republican proclivities-
The Chicago Times thus exposes the at.
tempted fraud
-"Yesterday morning Judge Mclean
delivered his Judgment sustaining the
demurrer, on the ground that plea was
different in substance and in legal effect
from that sustained by the Supreme
Court in the bred Scott case, and was
therefore insufficient.
g Judge Drummon6 EXPRESSED no opin-
ion nor did he say anything whatever,
except that if the council desired it, they
~eouldAbbtaiu a certificate Of a diUision Of
opinion on tie part of the Court and
thus carry it to the Supreme Court
Judge Mclean was requested to allow
his opinion to be published. but he de-
clined, saying that it would appear in
the next volume of McLean's Circuit
Court repor's.
"Iho abolitionists are disappointed !;
they thought Judge Mclean voald put
the bred Scott decision at defiance, and
boldly disregard that decision. He ex-
pressly admitted its binding force, and
decided this ease in favor Of the negro,
because it did not fall within the scope
of that decision

Joliet (Ir.) True Democrat, in response
to some remarks by its ~neigbbor of the
Signal, thus unbcsoms its Republican
sentiments:
"Now VIC wish to inform not only the
Signal, but the whole world, that we
are in favor of extending TO the negroes
the privilege of voting and of teslifying
in courts of justice. Aud W say that
it is a shame and disgrace to the State
of Illinois hat these privileges are not
EXTENDED to this class of citizens. Yes,
Mr.. Signal we neither consider you
nor any other man by nature n whit
above the negro!"

DR.. Hardman treatise Consumption, Bronchitis,
Asthnla, Puryngiiis and all diseases of the
thrat and lungs by Medical Inhalation. The
great point in the treatment of all human NAL
aides, is to get at the disease in q direct manner.
All medicines are estimated by their action up
on the organ requiring 7 lief. This is the inn
portant fact upon Inhalation is based. If the
stomach is dis ordered, We take incidence di-
reetly into The stomach, If the lungs are dis
cased, breathe or iulale mediciated vapor di-
rectSsy into the lungs. Medicines are the anti
dotes to disease, and should be appliedt to the
very seat OF diseases. Inhalation is t~heappli-
cation of this principle TO the treatment of the
lungs, for it gives Us direct access to those in
tricate air cells and tIces which lie out ofreaeh
of every other means of administering medI-
cincs. The reason that Consumption and 9TH
or diseases of the lungs have heretofore resisted
all treatment. has been because they have new
or been approached in a direct manner by med
icinc. They We're intended to act upon the
lungs. and yctwere applied to the stnmach =
Their ac ion was intended to be local, and yet
they were so administered that they could only
act constitulionally expanding their principal
mmediltc action upon the unoffending stom-
acI,, whilst the ulcers within the lungs are I'M
molcsted! Inhalation brings the medicine in
direct contact with the disease, without the
disadvantage of any violent action. Its appli-
cation is so simple that it can be employed by
the youngest infant or feeblest invalid. Itdoes
not derange the stomach, or interfere in the
smallest degree with the strength, comfort or
business of the T~atient.

Black Republican Tactics all


. In speaking of the vast amount of
falsehoods to be found in the Black Re
publican pres the Steubenville Union
compliments its local adversary, the
Herald, by saying it has grouped ten in
the narrow compass of TWO squares or
about twenty lines, being half a lie to
the liae. 1t continues:
But il is useless to 90 into a rcueti-
ton of all the fals;feations which he has
made. The object of tie Republican
press II making such assel tions is With
out doubt to throw the Democratic party
upon b dcfehsiUc and thus direct atten-
tion from their own delInqnancies. But
their trick is too shallow too deceive auv
one.
The Herald SAYS
"There would have been a great ado
about it if the State had lost half a mil.
lion OF dollars by any neglect on the part
of Gov. Chase"

In the Ohio Patriot Of ycster-
day we fad the following 'important
fact" at the head of The editorial column,
and we ask for the attention of the PEG
pie Of Ohio:
An IMPORTANT FAcTl-LET SALMON
P. CHASE Dare Deny IT!-During John
G.. Bresliu's term of office, S2Qi 600
was lost to the State by depositing the
public funds in Banking Institutions
The heaviest loss was that of serenity
nine thousand. eight hundred and eLeycR
dollars and ninety fire cents il the City
Bank of Cincinnati
Here is the point We desire to make;
That institution was selected as one Of
the repositories of the treasury of the
State, at the suggestion and advice of
Salmon p. Chase, the present Black
Republican Governor of Ohio Chase
wrote to BFesiin telling him that the
City Bank Of Cincinnati was entirely
safe, sound and solvent, ard advised
him TO select it as a depository of the
public funds. Breslin foolishly and i'm
p~rudently followed bis advice and the
result was n loss to the Treasury of the
State of nearly agility thousand dollars,
very nearly one half of Breslin's entire
deficit.
Here it will be found that Gov Chase
was acting as the agent of a rotten and
corrupt Bank, aud through his direct
agency the Treasury of Ohio was made
to bleed profusely. And this is the
same Salmon P. Chase that now seeks
to damn Breslin, (who followed his ad-
vice) and screen Gibson from public con
~demnation for his own unprecedented
SPECULATION, fraud ard rascality.
Will Salmon p. Chase dare deny the
facts above charged? Dare he deny
that be wrote the letter to Breslin as
stated? If he doris, or will call for its
publication--thc letter will be forthcom-
ing, an the truth of what we have char
ged established beyond Controversy
Can some clever Black Republican in
duco Governor Chase to open his mouth
as to this grave and important charge?

PRAcrIcAL AMALGAMATIoN IN ILL

gives an instance Of the practical carry
ing out Of the doctrines of the Black
Republicans in Northern Illinois. 1t
says:
Kncx county Illinois, or at lest all
of that part o. it lying about Galesburg,
has lately been thrown into a high state
of excitement by q verifcation of Gree
Iy's prediction. 1t seems that during
the campaign of last year, when Banks,
Burlingame, Grovor, Hale, General
Nye, aud other Abolitionists visited the
gegion, the negro equality faith, always
very strong, got intensely hested at
Galesburg, and a most respectable far
mer of hat vicinity, the head Of a large
family, by The way Of showing his sin
cerity in the doctrine, took a negro man
into his house, treating him as an equal
and a tit associate fer members of his
family.
Time, which develops all things, has
developed wen to the Abolitiouists oil

teachings Of Burliugame aud Banks One

girls now a mother, and the mother
of a black mau's child! Abolition la
dies, mothers and maidens who chccred
Gen. Nye anb John z. Hale when they
asserted that negroes were the equals q
white men, now turn away from the
poor victim CT that system Of teaching
GaIesburg has long been celebrated for
its Abolitionism. 1t is fit that its prac.
tical manifestations should have occur
red there.
The Times suggests the child should
be named after n. P. Banks, the late
Speaker of tie House, as he is the greal
champion of the equality of the races.
