ally . great sectional party, animated BY

ically great sectional party, animated by
a spirit of the most bitter and yindictive
hatred against the ins.itutions and people
Of one half Of the States. We find them
ready and willing 70 tfample the Constitu-
tor of our country under foot !; to rebel
against the highest authorities known in
the land, and even 70 deny to the people
the inherent right Of self,government, il
they can thereby ipfict blow npon those
against whom their poisoned arrows are
pointed; and it is against this party that
the Democratic forces are TO be arrayed,
and upon our fidelity, our union and firm
adherence to right is to depend the result.
In 1860 this great contest is to be de-
cided-the greatest hitherto known in our
political history. The battle has already
commenced. Our enemy is vigilant; in
every county, town and precinct appropri.
ate implements and appliances Of political
warfare are to lie abrndantly supplied /;
everything that skill, ingenuity or strata
gem can suggest is to be brought into re-
QUESTION. Where there are Democrats to
be drawn off these political knight errants
will be az harmless as doves, Indifferent as
to principles, eloquent in defence Of the
Union, and pathetic on the wrongs Of un-
successful aspirants. Where there is a
clear Republican majority You will find
them affecting thorough organization of
their forces, bold and deiian. in proclaim
ing their sentiments, and denouncing de-
mocracy. When the foreign element pre-
dominates they will be found vehement in
their admiration Of the erich Irish brogue,"
while in more appropriate places they will
''damn the Dutch" and applaud the "se
cret institution
Such is the character Of the enemy
against whom we have to battle. Then
as we love our country and revere our
institutions around which cluster SO
many happy associations, let US organize
thoroughly, present bold front, and re-
solve not to disband our forces or leave
the field until in 1860 the booming cannon
from Maine to Florida, and from Boston
to San Francisco shall have announced
the good tidings that another victory is
won, and our country is yet safe.

Dakota Ctty Pottery.

This establishment is now in successful
operation, having turned out one kiln of
first rate ware. Judging from a specimen
left at our Office we have no hesitation in
saying that it is Of quality equal if not
superior to the ware brought here from
St. Louis, and is afforded at from 20 to IS
per cent. cheaper than the imported arti-
Gle. We are happy to learn that the pro-
prietors, Messrs. ZEIGLER, EcKERT 4 Co.
are meeting with proper encouragement,
and have already secured ready sale,
which the superior quality of their goods
win always command. We also learn that
they have more orders on hand now than
they will be able to ell in several months.
We wish the proprietors every possible
success in their commendable industry.

The boilers appear to be very anxious
to establish the fact that some prominent
men have at one time occupied position
similar to the one they are in at present,
as n justification for their hostility to the
Democratic party. AS they have not yet
succeeded in establishing precedent, and
being unwilling to stand by and see them
crack their runy brains" in vain, we would
suggest to them the names of BENEDICT
ARNOLD and JUDAS lscAnIor, who were
both boilers from their comrades aud their
