there will be no Giddings in his
cabinet to advocate q foray into
Virginia and liberate her slaves
nor q Yancey, who would compel
the people of a territory to receive
slaves upon their soil-but as that
cabinet will be composed of men
who revere the Constitution, and
who intheir policy will look to the
interests of the whole Union, the
fears of each section of the Union
will be put at rest by the impartial

The last issue of this echo Fred
Douglass and Greeley, comes to us
with a ponderous article intended
no doubt by the editors TO annihi-
late this paper. They have exhib
tied a weakness in thus noticing q
contemporary from the low and
vulgar slang, and then too, coming
from the party that has all the de-
ceucy there is, We are right glad
to learn that the editors Of the In
teHigenccr indorse this negro equali-
ty doctrine; they say: "his fellow.
citizens have elected him to Office
by a large majority" This is true,
you have by this endorsement,
acknowledged that you (his fellow
c~itizen) have sustained him in his
decision of placing q negro upon
an equality with the white man.
We despise .Abolitionism, de-
spiscits lothsome and revolving con-
comitant, amalgimation of the
black and white races, despise all
the putrid and rotten hypocrites
who are preaching this treason
against religion and humanity
We look upon the doctrine of that
odious faction as q great moral, So
cial and political curse to our
country. Its teachings and its pre-
cepts Are too radical, too much
akin to the preachings of such men
as Tom Pain to be tolerated in this
country. What has Abolitionism,
with all its intense lore for SUeet
scented woody heads, accomplished
in'this country? Can any one point
to one good result which has flow
ed from it? One salutary infu-
ence it has exerted upon society?
No one can. From its inception,
from the momentits emisaries were
first paid by British gold to set up
q sectional strife in this country
down to the present time, it has
only produced civil discord, hatred
and strife among the different COM
munities of the American people.
The doctrine which the Abolition
list contend for-the social equality
of the black. and white race-is
fiendish, it is blaspllemy! ION the
provence of God. He who can
think of it without a shudder-
think Of a social amalgamation of
the ~anglo-American with the ne
gro-is an unhuman monster, fit
only to associate with the genuine
African woody heads.
We feel a kind of sympathy for
the fellows of the Intelligence, on
account of their having swallowed
such n quantity of negro wool (thc
staple of trade with them) lately
that it renders them almost non
compus mcntus.

Since the result of the State cleo

mics ofour party havebeen extreme
ly jubilant, and some of the more
light headed of our opponents,
whose conclusions upon almost any
subject, are devoid OF even the
most common philosophy, Wanting

Douglas Democracy is ended, its
day passed, and its sun set to rise
no more. 1t is not uncommon to
hear men of very limited observa-
tion, a very small amount of judg-
mcnt and extremely slender stock
of general information, ~oracularly
pronounce the doctrines of our
party a humbug and delusion. In
fact ever since our gallant standard
bearer confronted the administra-
ton which was trying to force up
on an unwilling people the institu-
ton of slavery, and entered single
handed into that terrible conflict
with dominant usurping power in
defence of that sacred principle, the
right of a people to self govern

usurpation can impair, a right

SHADOWS oS THg WALL.


Beside the hearth there IL an hour Of dreaming,
calm and pensiyc solitude OF soul,
When life and death have each another seeming
And thoughts are with us owning no control.
These are the spirits, Memory's revealing,
In deep so1emnity they rise and fall,
Shrouding the living present. and concealing
The world around us-Shadows on the Wall.
Hopes, like the leaves and blossoms, rudely
shaken,
by cruel winds Of winter, from the tree
Of our existence; phant0ms that awaken
Wild passing CLEANS Of Joys young ecstasy;
And Love, once kind and tcnderiy ontpouriDg
Her wine into our souls, we may recall,
And find them dear and ever heayenward soar
ing,
Though only now as Shadows on the Wall.
Old elaspng hands, old friendships and affections,
Once bodied forms beside us on the earth,
Come back to haunt US, ghostly recollections
With mystic converse BY the silent hearth.
Yet these are kindly spirits, and retiring
Draw their long shadows slowly from The wall
And visit US in peace and gentleness, Inspiring
Ahope that brings the sunshine after all.
