light flashed upon all beholders, and they
saw that the reign OF crinoline was over, the

A National Democrat seeks III edress.
The nationality of the Democratic party
VIII do to talk about. Ii seems to be dif-
ferent thing in practice. The fraternal kind
ness with which Southern Democrats treat
Northern Democrats was beautifully Illus
trated in the case of Elder McKinney,-a
lifelong, dyed-in-the wool Democrat. It's
illustrated again in the case OF the Rev.
Wliasn Rlnnt, who has petisianea the Leg
islaturo Of Wisconsin to seek redress for his
i'll usage in Texas, last summer. He 10 a
Campbellite minister, and he sets forth that,
after voting the Democratic ticket for thirty
years, and defending slavery by the Bible,
he went to Texas for his health, where be
fell under unjust suspicions OF being an abb
olitionist, was robbed Of his money, thrown
into Jail, treated to eighty lashes, and with
other indignities and "spurnings posteriori
not to DO named," was driven out OF the
State. He feels naturally little core after
such treatment from his friends.
Does not the nationality of the Demo.
cratic party need amending and revising
sitghtly2 If men who have voted the ticket
thirty years and defended slavery by the
Bible, are not sound enough "on the goose''
to escape stripes, tar and feathers, and other
-pWsuasiycs, we ask what chance would there
be inSthe sunny South for the Douglas Dem
ocrat, who is opposed to the extension OF
slavery just as much az the Republican is .
