Letter ffom samuel Ryan.
Sam. Ryan, Of Menasha, has been writ
ing good democratic letter to the Conser-
pator, which we think worthy Of place in
the Times:
B. S. HEATH, EEo.,-Dear Sir:-In the
last number of your third volume, an anony-
NOUS communication appeared signed an"
and headed 1.-THE negro has no rights which
the white man is bound to respect" The
motto Of your paper is, "Prove all things,
hold fast that which is good" Over one
hundred years ago, if IN" /" was born in New
England, his father or grandfather, were
they rich enough, owned negro slaves, and
were directly or indirectly engaged in that
Infamous traffic, the slave trade, for the
lucre Of gold-the almighty dollar. About
two hundred years ago, the Indians being
dispossessed Of lands by force OF fraud, by
tho Pilgrim Fathers, many Of them were
made slaves, on the Atlantic sea-board. bur
being found to be .impracticable subjects
they were superseded by the African negro
who were kept in bondange after the Decla
ration of Independence, and At the perioe
Of the signing Of the Constitution Of tn,
United States, all New England excep
Massachusetts, were slave States.
| Shortly after that period old England de
clared the slave trade piracy, and the Unite
States followed suit Immigration froI
Europe increased to that extent, that slave
and slave labor fell 75 per cent. in value
and State after State in the north and eas'

The Pope.
1t is beginning to be thought that the
convulsions now upturning Italia may pos.
sibly compel the Papa to exile himself to
the land of the free and the home of Pro-
gress, and it would not be at all strange il
residence in this country on the part Of
the authorities Of the Holy Church should
work practical revolution in it. 1t is
known that already there are two divisions
Of the Church in America, Father Chiniquy
heading the liberals or progressives; and
under the influence of free thought it is
not an unreasonable supposition that if the
central Head were here the whole organi-
zation would undergo change towards
liberalism, a lessening of the temporal in
fluence Of priests, and, in all ways, an ad.
vance in that path of Progress which Amer.
ican thought is bound ultimately to work
out.

Don't Like Him.

Don't Like Him.
The North Ioua Times protests against
having the Rev. HENRY CLAY DEAN as a
candidate of the Democracy for Governor
of Iowa, and thinks he mixes more politics
in his general conduct than becomes an
ambassador of Christ" and his nomination
would be Qudsi-indorsement at least of
that fusion of clerical and political influences
which they deplore. If DEAN should be a
candidate, what a fix The Times would be
in.-Fayette Rerie~.
Mr.. Cook of the Review will allow us to
say that this North Lo~a Times is not much
afraid ofgetting into a Jfr. This Office does
not belong to any body but the Editor and
Proprietor, and when he does not want to
support ticket it will not put him to any
trouble to say so. Being no aspirant for
Office individually, and having no friends
for when we would sacrifice our opinions
on any vital political question, we are never
put to any uncasiness about the movements
Of partisans or the resolves of conventions
Believing that the Democratic party is the
only one that can succeed in government
based upon the recognition Unpopular rights
we have no more doubt Of its ultimate tri
umph than we have of the perpetuation o.
the republic; but we would be glad to sex
it march along without committing any o
those errors of expediency which uniformly
tumble our opponents from victory just a
they fancy it within their reach; it is thi
desire which induces US to give our friend
the best advice we can, and if they refuse Il
take it we shed no tears.
