There is certainly mistake rs TO the
Latter Day Saints if he means Mormons,
whose two 'pa,riarchal institutions Slavery
and Polygamy irremediably rank them with
the Democracy, where they certainly were and
are. But we are not exactly clear, from what
he says, whether pious Jones inclines to the
Catholics, TO the EpscopalIans, or to the
Method,ts. He considers them al to be in
danger, evidently. Whichever sect 1t be that
he Zines" he will find a great deal Of "here-
sy' to combat. The Pope has repeatedly thun'
dered his louicst bulls against Slavery. The
Church of England is intensely anti-siayery al
home, and incuca,es equal rights and the
golden rule in her Liturgy. And John Wesley,
the founder Of Methodsm denounced Slavery
as the sum of all vilalnies." Where shall
Jones gol Untarans, Millerites, Blue Bap-
fists. Bogus Presbyterian-C n-Congregationalists,
the Popes, the Liturgy, and Wesley, all against
Slavery, where shall Jones fly (with "fhe
J,St0ps and other clergy whose lives are d-vo-

ceS DISCOVERY:
THE dscline of business in the North is al
tributed 10 a great many causes; but there is
a very decided one, IN our opinion. which lS
never mentioned by the political economists
and monomaniacs of the Black Republican
party
What IS the cause of the decline Of The
North, he does not say in so many words, bu,
we infer from the context that il is because
those who produce wealth at the North are
pad for their laboi-own their own bodies.

" InSutuluu, tnas a, no ~v".c. ."S &c
States are tagging away behind the Slave
States But, this being the case, we are con-
cerned for friend Jones' success in business.
Instead of starting his humble looking sheet
up here in the poor, barren, frozen, drowsy,
droning g,pauper-hastening North, where he can
get no work done,even BY steam without pay
ing for it,and where the people can't read,and
wont "paroniZe' as the generous Son'hrons''
do he should have gone to the Eastern shore
of the Chesapeake, or among the tar-makers
or Sand-hillers OF Carolina, or down 10 the
cotton fields Of Massisip, where he could have
splendid printing done for next to nothing BY
"likely" negro boys get lots o: subscribers,
and grow rich as printers generally do down
there. As i, is, we pity Jones companion and
little ones-we do, business is 50 declining at
the North. -" Oh, carry me back to old Vir-
gnnyi'
But Jones' is too facetous for first "is.
soo'-we fear he can't keep it up. We can
copy but one good thing more. Now it is
reasonable TO suppose that Jones would be
"agin" WlLMor for Governor, but whether
Packer or Hazlehurst gets his Invaluable aid,
we suppose, will depend upon "side door ar
ransements." If the pro-slavery forces d.
vide between their champions, il seems clear
that WILnor will win, in which case the gel
lorious Union is sure to smash-just as it did
when BANKS was elected Speaker But who
would think that such a sublime genius as
Jones could condescend to the following
specimen of Unlon-saving cant and sniveling!
"The Southern States are now watching
the Keystone of the Arch. Once stricken out.
il falls for ever. II Wilmot, the founder of
the Free Soil party, be elected-thus ratl.
fying the decree of Black Republcanism,
that wall OF iron Is 10 circumscrlbe the
South-then the last fratsrn0i hnk ofthe Cnio,

"Dear mel" some of the honest Demoora-
cy will exclaim, "hare ,ce got TO sure that
Union all orer again nert FdH?" Yes, sir. for /.
Jones-endcrSed by the President of the .
Southern Conventlon-says so! If you dare .

-that'S fiat. And only think. wha, if they I

made boots, and go off 10 Cuba or Nicaragua
or Sonora-who would pay our taxes. whip
their nIggerS, beget their mulattoeS, keep
up expenses, and Gil the Offices, Just ina
gine what a condition certain large houses
in Berks and Lancaster and Ches,er and
other counties would be in if their inmates
should get mad abou, somebody the people
should choose to elect for Poor Directors or
Governor, and be found missing some June
morninsl Think of that. We 'freedom-shrie-
king" Pennsylvanians. and as ye dread the
wrath and absence Of Jenes and the South,
vote down WILNor and Black Republlcanism,
and "take" the Southern Monitor!
Goodbye, JoNEs-but do call again.
