The Printer,s nollars.

The Printers dollars | Where are
they? Well suppose one of them is in
somebody's pocket in Philadelphia, an
other in Boston, a third in New York,
q fourth in Baltimore, while a fifth is
resting securely in some city or town OF
the West. A dollar here and q dollar
there scattered all over the towns all over
the country, mile upon mile apart, how
shall they be gathered?
The type founder has his hundreds of
dollars against the printer; the paper
maker, the building owner, the journey
man, the grocer, the tailor, and all as
sistants to him in carrying on business,
have their demands, unfortunately hard
ly ever so much as a single dollar. But
the mites from here and there must be
diligently gathered in and very patiently
boarded, or the wherewith to discharge
the large bills will never become very
bulky.

what viii they do with them

A Southern contempory wants to
know what the. Black-Republicans pro-
pose to do with the negroes of the South,
after they shall have succeeded in get
getting them free. We don'tknow what
they scOuld do, but we know what they
say they'd do. They say they would
allow the negro to testify in court, to sit
in the jury box, with the white man, to
vote at the elections, and to hold Office
in short, they say they would confer up
on the negro equal rights with the white
man. All this is what they say they
would do for the negro if they could Sc
cure his freedom. This, however is not
what they did do fer a colony 0 fnegroes
that they induced to move to a country
in the Western Reserve. At the soil
citation of the Abolitionists Of that re-
gion, a colony of negroes moved into
that county, and as the story goes, the
Abolitionists after swindling them out
of their hard earnings for several years
finally enforced the poor laws against
them and drove the off. One thing is
certain that the Abolitionists will do
nothing for the negro, unless they are
well assured beforehand hat they are to
be more benefited than the negro by the
operation.

In that State the barbarous practice
of selling paupers into slavery still ex.
lists, and it was but recently that a man
named Heugh was sold at Covington
Ky, for a term of four months because
he was a pauper. There is no differ
ence in principle between enslaving q
white man and black man, and it is ii
accordance with that public depravity
which allows black men to be enslayed
to reduce also the whites to bondage
who may be so unfortunate as to be
poor.-Lerington co., Am5TotgPe.
Those who know better, or ought tc
know better, 'sput that ball in notion
1t is a falsehood, and all who give it cir
culation, unless through ignoraco, arc
guilty of wilful untruth. There is nc
law in Kentucky or any where else in
the South, to sell or ~enslave a white
man or a black man because he is poor
The law is penal which causes a drunk
en-, idle vagrant, who has no visible
means of support, and won't work, to
be sold to pay the expenses of arrestine
him and bringing him in the presence
of the Court to give al account of him
self. The State journal paraded the
paragraph in its columns. Does it be-
lieve hat there is no difference be-
t,oeen enslartng q 1ohite and black man 2
The Ambrotypo thinks SO, and compli-
ments the great fathers Of American In
dependence with the attribute of pub
lie depravity which allows black men to
be enslaved.' They were all slavehold-
ers.
The offence of being a vagabond, an
eye-sore to community wait, stagger-
ing and reeling about obtaining uncer-
tain mean of subsistence nobody knows
how, without employment or seeking
employment, is punished in Kentucky
as a misdemeanor not sufficiently grave
to merit Imprisonment but the offender
is sold to labor for a given time to pay
the expenses of his apprehension and
bringing him before the Court.
This is very different from selling a
poor man into slavery. It gives the
stalwart, stout vagabond a master to
make him work and compel him to en-
ployment, and it repeats the dose until
he is cured of idleness or seeks some
more c~ongenial spot for loafng. The
paupers are taken care of, but then they
are paupers.
IF the Ambrotype docs not NEAR to
deceive and be foresworn, let him apply
the correction to his misstatement. We
look for no such acknowledgment on
the part of the Journal, but all the black
republican papers are not so low and
abandoned as their central organ.

o the benefit of all whom it may concern. ]
wish to make the following statemant in relation
to the imported horse, MESSENGER, kept by
Isaac Smith, OF Eaton, last year. Many individ.
uals last season were in the habit of making
charges that said horse was not an imported
horse ; that Smith was deceiving and imposing
ON the people of treble county, by representing
him as such. L wish now to state that if there
was any wrong or deception practiced upon the
people in that matter, that 1 am the individual
to blame for the same and not Mr.. Smith. The
horse at the time belouged to me, and the pedi.
gree given by Smith was correct, as given by me
to him. And / will further say to any person OF

$500 to any man who will successfully prove that
the said horse, Messenger, was not an imported
horse. have made arrangements with r. S
