u w are not responsible for the OBJ
tnsencss of our neighbor If slavery is
such an evil and the blacks are so much
better off in the free states, it seems strange
that there should be twice the number of
free blacks in the slave States that there
are in the free statcs-and if slavery drives
ont the white population. it seems strange
that there should be 100000 of whites
in the South, and only about one third of
one million of them holding slaves. These
two propositions were the key notes for the
howls Of black Republicans, and when they
are contradicted so fatty. it is no wonder
they are "obtusc" and cannot see
"None are so blind as those who wW not

The Democrat editor is not responsible
for his orn "obtuseness" certainly, judg-
ing from the above extract. If it contains
an argument at all it is an apology for
slavery; which is just what we have been
charging the party with all the time; but
our ncighbor has persistently denied its
We arc glad to see that he
has at last concluded to declare his true
and array himself along side of
the New York Day Book, Richmond En-
quircr, and other pro-slavcry sheets. Let
him now emLlazon on his banner ".Siare-
ry as -Tational-Freedon as .Sect;on7l,''
and then mount his Rozinantc, accompan-
led by his squire, Sanco Panzo, go forth to
battle "black Repub'icanism."
Seriously Is our ncighbor's conclu-
sion, that slavery is not so great an evil as
the Republicans represent, warranted by
his premise. in regard to the greater num-
Der of free-blacks in the slave than free
states? No one, we venture, save our as
'ute contemporary Of the NJ. G.. Democrat,
would ever have thought of dcducing an

ting copy-right-itis is certainly original,
however Illogical it may be. n lover of
free institutions might have found several
reasons for this state of things, beside that
adduced by the sapient dignitary who
writes the editorials in the Democrat. Tie
black mans organ Of locality is said to be
very large; hence, his love of home and of
his native land is intense. This is, per-
haps, one reason why many prefer to re-
main in the slave States. Another reason
night be found in the fact that they are an
exceedingly sociable people, with strong
attachments; consequently, willingly bear
he degradation they labor under in the
slave States rather than part with those
heir hearts twine around; especially when
hey are assured that their condition will
be no better in any of the surrounding free
States, IT as good; that the law forbids
them coming and subjects all who employ
them to penalty; that there is more pref
ndice against the race in the free than slave
States, which is true. Still another cause

ber of slaves, tends to weaken and render them in

All! Mr.. Madison, too, thought that the

have been sectionalist, according to the

We chronicle In our marine column, the ari ival
of the schooner A. Il Hart from Chicago, with
$4,000 bu4hels Of wheat. She blew into port
with her decks and rigging sheeted with ice and

lake called IL tho worst night they had ever
known, but last night was worse, and had the
Greyhound been three hours later in making the
trip she would have found it hard to enter the
harbor in the binding snow storm, which COM
menced at three p. IN and continued during the
night. God help any poor sailors who we're oD
our stormy lake last night.
The Lockport Journal Of Saturday even
ing says I'VE have upon US one of the
most severe snow storms known in this sec
ton at any season. The storm commenced
about 4 O'Clock yesterday morning, and
last evening at O'Clock the snow was near

out the village, the wind blowing at the
same time with fury that rendered it
hazardous to navigate the streets from our
business establishments to the homes Of
our citizens"
The Chicago Tribune details great losses
Of shipping and cargocs. In Canada West
snow fell in some places between three ard
four feet on level. There was a report
brought to Cincinnati by the steamer r.
public that during the storm on wednesday,
sixteen coal boats were sunk in the Ohio
and Mississippi rivers. With the loss of 100
men and great amount Of coal. Some
doubt IL intimated of the accuracy of that
report.

The vote for tho coming election will be
