Strange Indeed.

On several occasions of late the Enquirer has de-
nouueed the Compromise measures Of 1850 "Aboii-
ZIONIST hreses" In its yesterdays issue, it attempts to
prove Mr. Bell AboltOnist for separating from Mr.
Clay on some of those measures and taking ground
against them So according to the Enquirer, Mr.. Eve
rett an Abotonis because he approves the compro
mise measures of 1880 and Mr.. Bell is AbOltonist
because he dsapproves of some of them! Was there
ever such marveousy ridiculous logic in thisworld be-
fJree And was there ever unfair and laundering a
paper in the world the Richmond Enquirer in these
latter days.
1t will be recollected that in the Of the last two
or ,Are weeks pointed out grave which
ned in the editorial columns of the Enquirer, and yet to
shis ds there has been correction of them and no
alhson to theul-and we predict there never will be.
But il it chooses to rip along in such STYLE why, say
let it rip

Wanting finish up the EHypirsr's elaborate disqu
sious upon Mr. Bells record, have to say that the
extracts quoted by the Enquirer from Mr. Bells speech
e. are merely garbled extracts and that Mr. Bells posi-
ton is not clearly defined in them. For example in re-
gard the power of Congress abolish slavery in the
District Of Columbia, the EHquirsr quotes Mr.. Bell
saying
with regard to the constitutional power of Congress
over this subject would say that the only doubt have
Of the existence Of the power either to suppress the
slave trade to abolish slavery in the District of Col.
umba Is inspired by the respect have for the opinions
OF many dis ngushed and eminent men, both in and
Of Congress, who hold that Congress has no such
power Reading the Constitution for myself I beiisUe
that Congress has all the DOer tie subject this
district rhich The States hare nithi their respective
jlrisdict0Hs."- Congregational Globe yOL - J 1868.
Now if the Enquirer desired to make fair expOsi-
ton of Mr. Bells opinions this subject why did it not
quote the following from Mr.. Bells speech the same
subject, which Immediately follows the extract quoted
above, and constitutes part Of The paragraph
Mr.. Bell adds:
ON TIA QUESTION ~ THE ExPEDrxScY OF EXERCISING
THIS rOwER, when consider the effect which il may
upon the interests Of the adjoining States and the
limitations upon the power which may be fairly Inferred
om the rel alive position and circumstances OF the Dis
trict have more doubt. CERTAINLY Tux TOWER MAY

And Oppressive, AND vERY NIscHIEyoUS 100"
Now will the Enquirer just keep that before its read
er along with its other seleconsy Tao speech Of Mr.
Bell quoted FROM By the Enquirer YVES made "a opposition
70 the bill for aboshing the slave rade in the District
and ye. the Isolated extract COPIED into the Enquirer
and torn from its context necessarily and grossly mis-
represents Mr.. Bells position. While perhaps, ad-
hitting the power Of Congress the subject, he was
FIR from admitting that Congress ought to exercise t
p5rsr for he says. certainly the power may be very
clear aud get hserereise ,! g very unjust aud opSss-

an almost indispensable part of the stock of every
general Dry Goods store from the crowded city to
tho cross-road stand. Like all changes in trade,
however, this has not been produced except for
the best of reasons. Among these the great
saving of material by cutting a large quantity of
garments together-the superior work and speed of
sewing machines in manufacturing-the great
ing of time in waiting for your "turn at the Tai

arrangements to devote whole house exclu-
sively to it alone with such lines of Notions and
Furnishing Goods will be necessary and desirable

the trade will be to sustain in this enterprfse,
We would especially announce that we now have

stocks of WELL MADE CLOTHING that wal
ever offered to the trade of the West.
We respectfully solicit a call from all our old
