Seneca told Almond that there was bear near

The Pond being narrow, Seneca took one side

Democracy in favor ofslavery.

The different stripes Of the democracy arc
having an interesting quarrel about their defeat
in Connecticut-the pro-slavery stripe contend
ing that they were beaten because their orators
and newspapers did not take the true democrats
ic ground, namely, protection of slavery every
wherc-while the Douglas, or squatter sover-
eighty stripe, stick to it that they were whipped
because some of their leaders did take this
ground. The New York Day Book, the organ
of the party in that city. hauls Judge Bowlln,
one of the democratic stumpers in Connecticut,
over the Goals, and lays down the true demo-
cratic creed, in this fashion:
He begins his speech by the declaration that
Il is an "atrocious and malignant lie" that the
Democratic party is in favor of slavery and
all his speech and speeches are based on this
assumption. Well, is il true or false! The
question of slavery" Is in issue; II is the sole
question Of the canvass; and the Democratic
party not being in favor OF slavery" ofcourse
il must be opposed to slavery" Will Judge
Bowlin say soy He would promptly declare
that il was an .'atrocious and malignant lie,
TO charge that the Democratic party was oppo-
,ed TO slavery" What then! IL is the ques-
ton the sole question; and yet the Democrat
ic party is neither in favor OF nor opposed 10
slavery" therefore the democratic party is
fraud on the pc Jple, humbug. an imposition,
miserable continuance for enabling fraction
of the people to get office, and i've on the
labor and Industry OF better men than them-
selves.
Such is the unavoidable conclusion from the
premises of Judge Bowlin and others now
stumLing the State Of Connecticut, with high
homes o, receiving victory without changing
the opinions Of the peopie-of electing Demo.
cratic Governor Of that State by SAINT slavery
votes. But is 1t true We deny 1t. We hold
that the Democratic is a great, patriotic and
glorious organization, combining within its
ranks nearly all the patriotism, talent, bravery
and craftsmanship of the nation.
We hold moreover, that it is In favor oil
"sla,ery''-that is, of the social subordination
of negroes; and within the federal jurisdiction,
will see to Il that this so called slave property ;,
receives the same protection that is given to al
other kinds ofproperty.

York Co. Five Cents Savings Institution

In manufacturing place like ours where
large numbers of operatives are employed at
rates which preclude the amassing of large
sums, the want of an institution where small
sums may be deposited is always felt, and we
think the public generally Of our city willrc-
joice that this want has been met. THE York
Co. Savings Institution has now been in opera
ton only about month, but VIC learn that there
has already been deposited very considerable
sum. The Institution opens under the most
flattcring auspices, with the names of many Of
our most substantial and reliable citizens con-
nccted with II as officers, and members. There
Is large class Of people in our midst who live
on the principle to "spcnd as they co." and
they reason in this way "this and that is such
tribe il il nothing, besides, We can never
from our wages, save q sum that will amount
10 ANYTHING" and so the dimes SO. and when
illness overtakes them, or they are thrown out
Unemployment they are perfectly destitute and
dependent. Now an institution of this sort
where there is no need to wait for the accumu-
laton Of n large amount OF money, which Is
right at hand and open every day for the de-
posit of any sum from iyecerts upwards, seems
to us to be just the thing required to give them q
chance to become independent, and to encour-
are and stimulate them to economy and effort
Once let them see how much these little savings
amount to in time, and they will need no urg-
ing to deposit them in safe and paying insti-
tuition.
Minors have right in this institution to
deposit money, with the power to control and
dispose Of il without reference to their parents
In many cases where parents are incorporate,
and minor is dispoied to be Industrious and
saving. this viii prove great protection and
relief.
We think that the people of this vicinity are
wise enough to see the benefits arising from
such savings institute. and doubt not they
will gladly embrace the opportunity to profit
by ii. The Bank is open for deposits every day
during banking hours at the City Bank Rooms,
