What the Result Will Be.

The Republican party, which has now
become formidable monster, gloated with
success in some of the Northern States,
threatens the very existence of our coun-
try, gnaws at its vitals, and unless a check
be put upon it. must inevitably cause its
destruction. Made up of the hacks of ex'
tinct political parties; disappointed aspir-
ants for office; demagogues of every hue;
reckless adventurers who have nothing to
loose, and imagine they have everything
to gain by radical changes; it presents the
its numerical force, but also in its constit-
uent elements. This party is necessarily
sectional. Its object is to array the citizens
of one portion of the country against those
of the other. Fraud and violence they
have used already to effect this end--they
are using them still Their iucendiary
speeches and books. firing the minds ot
ignorant men with ssut;r, instinct caused
them to imbrue their hands in innocent
blood, and when expatiating their crimes
in felon's doom, impiously taught them
to regard theirs a condition Of martyrdom,
and sacriligiously canonized those whose
guilty souls had been hurried murder
stained into the presence Of their Maker
Their emissaries are even now, plotting al
midnight, and maturing schemes of rapine
and murder, endeavoring to instil hatred
and malice, for supposed wrongs, into the
hearts of the ignorant negroes of the South
and to arouse in them a spirit of revenge.
! which murder most FOUL" alone can sa-
liate.
They dare to avow that they seek the
ascendancy of their party only to prosti
schemes of fraud and violence, and to dc
under the shadow of the law, what the,
would not hesitate to accomplish by force
of arms, but they dread the vengeance o
an outraged community. Ever specula
ting on mere hypothesis. treating with the
mere vaporings of over-heaied imagina
tons, dealing with localities, and disre-
garding tangible realities. their sophistry
is calculated to mislead those who are toe
apt to content themselves with alIowina
others TO think for them. Hence we see
/ the Republican party enfolding in its EN-
brace the votares of Spiritualism, Free
loyism and every other ism with which We
are cursed.
But the intelligent masses cannot be be
guiled by the soft Establishments of those
who in their efforts to raise the degenerate
negro. whom the imperative laws of nature
have assured to be the servant Of the white
would degrade their noble race to leve
with the semi barbarian African.
With the question of slavery in the Soutt

What Lincoln Did not Do.

He voted against sending food and Other
supplies to our army in Mexico, intending
thereby 10 starve them out and make them
come home.
That is what one Democratic paper
the Plaindealer-says:
Now hear what another Democratic ap-
per-the Nation (Ill) Gazette-says:
ave made the charges against Mr.. Lin
celn, in relation to voting against supplies,
upon. the information of an intelligent
gentleman, who assured US that the record
stood against him. The political friends
of Mr.. Lincoln called our attention to the
record, and upon examination, we find that
instead of Mr. Lincoln it was John Henry,
Of Morgan, who was his immediate pre-
decessor, who gave the vote. 1t affords
us unfeigned pleasure to be able to say, up
on examination, that our former fellow
citizen gave no such vote, and further that
his record aoM '.pass muster" with the
best men Of any party during his Con-
gressional term"

Shocking Murders.

A little deformed man from Virginia,
named B. L. Sleath, aged % years, and
half dementcd, took passage on the Red
River PACKET from Shreveport for New Or
leans. He fancied persons were trying to
kill him, and so told the Captain. The
New Orleans Delta says:
Between and o'clock on the following
morning, May 10Th, while almost all the
passengers were asleep, several gentleman
were still sitting up conversing,) Sleath
suddenly stepped up behind one of the
gentleman lnamed F. G. Jernigen) and
caught him around the head, drew bow
ie-knifs from behind him, and attempted
to cut his throat. He was prevented from
making fatal wound by Jernigan catch
ing the blade of the knife in one hand, and
Sleath's arm with the other. He, howev.
eF, received very severe wound across
the throat.
Theipassengers who were asleep, were
reused by the noise and excitement in the
cabin and the boat running into the bank
Just at that time a gentleman named
Charles II. Fort, coming out of his state,
room into the cabin, was fatally stabbed by
Sleath, and expired in few moments
He resided in Springfield, Robertson coun-
ty, Tennessee. Annother passenger, NAM
ed J. R. Lyle, of Nashville, Tenu., being
reused by the noise, opened his staleroom
door in order to look out, and was imme-
diately stabbed by Sleath. Lyle only said
II am stabbed" and expired without q
groan, the bowie-knife having penetrated
through the heart
At this juncture, the Captain, who had
been asleep in his room, was called, and
coming at once into the cabin, he succeed
ed in getting the knife from Sleatb, and
then secured him.
The murderer had upon his person at
the time of his arrest several other knives
and a revolver.

ITEM FOR WAGON BoYs.-The friction
Of q wagon en- common road, may be di
rcctly learned by observing what rate o
descentis required from it, to just run down
of its own accord. Ifa descent of one foot
In fifty, will cause it to move by its OWL
weight as on smooth hard plank road
then the resistance is but one-6ftieth par,
of the load. If one foot in twenty-five will
do, as on the hardest earth roads, one foot
in sixteen, as on a common earth surface
or enc foot in six to eight, as on a very
muddy, or newly graveled road, the resis-
tance in each case will be respectively, one
twenty-ffth, one sixteenth, or one sixth to
one eighth. The farmer who is driving
his wagon down very muddy hill, de-
sesnding one foot in five, observes that its
OWN weight is just sufficient to cause it to
run, may know that over road as muddy
and on level, his horses have to exert a
strength equal to one fifth Of the weight
Of the wagon and load.

CUTTING GLAss.-Alex. Taylor writes
IS follows to the Photographic News:-In
treating of glass, may give you another
way of cutting bottles, shades or any glass
vessel the neat thing you wish, and that
is to get rod of iron heated to redness,
and having filled your vessel the exact
hight you wish it to be cut, with oil ofany
kind, you proceed to very gradually dip the
red hot iron into the oil, which, heating all
along the surface, suddenly the glass chips
and cracks right htround, when you can lift
of. the upper portion clean by the surface
of the oil. This never fails, and many a
couple of serviceable bell glasses have 1
made in this way from six pound confec-
ton bottle. If the above is suitable, it is
at the service of your readers, and only an
installment of hiHts which one photograph
er could give to another.
