The editor Of the Germantown Independent
is very seriously worried in reference TO an ar
ticle in the Empire Of Monday, rejecting on
that portion Of the press which has been 80
industriously occupied in abusing Mr., Vallan'
digham, aud the speech lately delivered by
him in Congress, The Germantown editor is
like the man with long nose; he takes the
whole thing to himself; and the snappish
quality Of the FIRST paragraph fairly entities him
to prominent position among the little things
that surround the mobile mastiff" The gen
tleman seems to know his place. and falls into
il quite naturally.
He has not read the speechl Come home,
General, and at oncel What is the use of your
fooling away your time making speeches in
Congress when they get the cold shoulder from
the highly sppreciative genius who edits the
Germantown independent Your remaining
longer in Washington would be piece Of mere
vanity; your days Of usefulness are over; he
don't read your speeches, and of course you're
gonerl
The press is supposed to be the great medium
through which the people are instructed, and
so far as the Germantown Independent is con.
cerned, one may very sincerely calculate, "Hea
ven save the mark" And did we not know
that the good people of Germantown aresst
least quarter Of century in advance Of the
silly twaddle that is done up weekly by this
wonderful individual, we should have but little
hope for people who are instructed by mental
pigmy of the dimensions of this most sapient
Editor. .t..
Vallandigham is a"fre eaterl" Well, Mr..
Myers will never set anything on fire. Twin
Creek is perfectly safe; he will never be very
apt to set it in conAagratiOn; on this point
our Germantown neighbors may dismiss all
fears; they are not in the least danger.
He is in favor of cheap postage, and the en-
largement of the Portland canal There is
platform for you gentlemen who are going to
the Chicago Conventionl oh, the spooneyl-
Does he want letter postage at less price than
three cents2 aud to what extent will the en-
largement Of the Portland canal advance the
industrial or social interests Of Germantownl-
Why don't you procure an appropriation for the
deepening and enlargement of Twin Greek,
rendering il navigable for steamboats, to Ger.
mautownl There would be some sense in that;
but to expect anything sensible from such a
source, would be melancholy example of the
evil effects of misplaced confidence. M.

TEE MIRROR" AGAIS.-Last night Huston
Hall was again filled by an appfeciative au-
dience, who seemed to be delighted with the
exhibition. The Springfield National Band
were present, and as the Panorama was divi.
ded into three sections, they gave us taste OF
their quality in the intervals. This and to-
morrow evening, we learn, they will play, and
all who desire to see the Panorama must be
present on these occasions, as it will positively
go to Hamilton on Monday. To morrow after
noon the public schools will turn out to witness
the exhibition. It's magnificent work of arlI

PRACTICAL ABoLITIoNIsM. will be re-
membered that we published last week d
rather discouraging account of the result oil
the Underground r, r. in the neighborhood
of Chatham, Canada West. The Detroit
Free Press-a paper which would not say a
word against free soilers, if it could avoid
it-says that the public schools of Chatham
were the other day taken possession of by
several hundred negroes, who refuse to let
the white children have any of the advan'
tages of the school tax. The negroes de-
clare that as they are in the majority, they
will have things their own way; and the
people there are too weak to prevent it.
The British Government favors the negroes,
and declines to interfere. We have, in the
Chatham affairs, sample of the beauties Of
practical abolitionism. At several other
points in Canada, the negroes have taken
public affairs into their own hands.
