o. The Baltimore Patriot is too respe CT
able TO adopt the system of wholesale slan
der and abuse. which is SO common among
journals which oppose the Republican can
didates. While uboring zealously for the
Union party, it frankly pays tribute to the
chosen leaders of the Republicans. In an
article upon the lives and characters OF Lin.
coin and Hamlin, it uses the following Lam
guage: atrarr
"They who know Mr.. Lincoln intimately
say, that he is moderate and conservative e
man, that though opposed to the extension
of Slavery into free territory, just as Mr..
Clay and Mr.. Bell were, and the latter gen
tlemen still is, yet he is a States Rights
man of the strictest sect. He is also the
sworn enemy Of Executive and legislative
corruption, and has a character for personal
integrity unimpeachable. His popular So
briquet is, Honest Old Abe" There can
be little doubt, but that this man of the
working people, artificer of his own fortunes
from poverty to competence, from the low.
est to the highest position, will meet with
the cordial sympsthies of the laboring mass.
es every where whether they support him
politically or not. ...
"Mr. Hamlin was always Democrat, un-
Ill the repeal of the Missouri Compromise
bill came up, when he, denounced it as an
offence against plighted faith, and, in open
Senate, dissolved bis connection with the
Democratic party, and went over to the Re.
publicans. As a legislator, his record shows
him to be the author OF more laws than tha,
Of any Of his compeers for the same
length Of time. He was and is the specia
friend Of commerce. No man of aay party
questions his high integrity Of cha.acie,
and bis sound and solid Judgement has al
ways made him safe lswgiver. Had Mr.
Fremont been elected in the contest ofl856
tits understood that Mr. Hamlin would have
been his Secretary Of the Treasury. On
the Slavery question, be was always wha
the Democrats used to consider sound, be
fore the repeal of the Missouri Compromise
OF the rights Of the States. he is the un

For long struggled with my hspless fate
And staid and toiled till 1t was dark and
Yet these are all my sheaves.

Wherefore blush and weep, as at thy feet

With evening dew upon their folded leaves

Therefore shall fragrance and beauty be
The G lory OF my sheaves.

Not what did, but what l strove to do
And though the full, ripe ears are sadly few
