a colored local preacher. who is now lying
in the Penitentiary of that State. under
sentence of ten years imprisonment for
having in his possession copy of Uncle
Toms Cabin.-N T. Herald
1t would spoil the force of this paragraph
to add single word to it. A minister of
the Gospel imprisoned for ten years for
having copy Of ''Uncle Toms Cabin" in
his possession! There is not despot on
earth. Cristian, Mahommedan or Heathen.

And yet to perpetuatc such wrong -
this, we shall soon be asked again to give

Since the Democratic Party departed
from the faith Of Jefferson and jackson it
is lamentable to witness the change that has
tax en- place in its tactics. In those days the
contests were conducted upon the merits of
the various questions at issue, and the party
came fairly and squarely up to the mark in
proclaiming and defending its political creed.
Democracy could then give substantial
reason for the faith that 1t entertained. 1t
is q refreshing study to go back and read
over the old contests upon the various mat
tiers of public policy, and to see with what
an energy and u will Democracy contended
for the right But those days have passed,
