HYPocRIsY ExPosEp-The arrant hypocrisy
Of the pretended anti-Lecompton wing OF the
Sham Democracy OF Iowa, has been recently
exposed completely in. their rejoicings over tho
defeat of Frank p. Blair and the success Of
Richard Barrett Of st. louis. Barret is an Ad-
ministration man of the most ultra stamp. He
was the pet candidate OF the ST. Louis Republi-

slavery papers in the country. 1t has probably
fabricated through its correspondents and other
wise, more infamous falsehoods and base SIAN
ders upon the Free State men of Kansas than
all other journals of kindred spirit. The
election OF Barres was secured only by the
power and patronage and gross frauds Of the
Administration and its party. He is pro-
slavery man, in favor not only Of the continu-
ance OF slavery in Missouri, but also in favor Of
extending that institution into all the terrific
ries of the Union. His opponent +. P. Blair, ID
the open and fearless champion of free labor and
the gradual emancipation Of the slaves now held
in Missouri. He is in favor Of freedom in the
territories. He is, in short, Jetfersonian
democrat.
Notwithstanding all this, the Sham Democracy
OF Iowa are jubilant in their exultations over
the election of most ultra pro-slavery and Lee
compton man. Can there be clearer evidence
of the utter hollowness, the shameful and un-
blushing hypocrisy of all the cant INDUCED in
by protessed ant, .Lecompton democratss When
Buchanan was a candidate for the Presidency it
was claimed that he was in favor of freedom in
Kansas. Had it not been for this claim be would
have been Overwhelmingly defeated in every
Northern State. Yet he was no sooner snugly
enseonced in the executive chair, than he fra.
med diabocal scheme not only for enslav.
ing negroes in Kansas, but for fastening upon
the freemen OF that Territory most odious and
tyrannical Constitution. A portion Of the Sham
Democracy pretend not to endorse this action Of
the Chief Magistrate, yet, when one of his most
ultra supporters, in a Southern State, is elected
to Congress by fraud and ballot box stuffing,
their rejoicing and exultation know no bounds.
Will they have the brazen effrontery longer to
profess iealty to anti-Lecompton principles!-

THE VIRTUE OF BoRAx.-The washerwomen
of Holland and Belgium, SO proverbially clean,
and who get up their linen so beautifully white,
use refined borax a. washing powder, instead Of
soda, i'll the proportion Of large handful Of
borax powder to about ten gallons Of boiling
water; they save in soap nearly half. All the
large washing establishments adopt the same
mode. For lacss, cambrics, &C., an extra guam
tity Of the powder is used, and for crinolinss
(required to be made stiff strong solution 10
necessary. Borax being neutral salt does not
in the slightest degree injure the texture Of the
lsen; its effect is to soften the hardest water,
and therefore it should be kept on every toilette
table. To the taste it il rather sweet, 10 used
