Locofocos and Foreigners.

The last Clearfield Republican, the Brec-
kinridge organ in that county, contains an
alticle abusive Of Carl Shurz, who is desig
mated as an "ineendiary enlisSary, a"ileS-
sian" in politics, an ''insolent adyenturer,
Unreasonable destructive" an "aiien, yet
reeking with the pcrspiration Of reyontio
nary efforts in Europe, coming here to lead.
a crusade against the South, to preach alb
olitionism to SOW the seeds of disorganza-
ton, and to raise the black flag of disunion
and dismembermcnt" Who, asks the
Raftsman's Journal, would have thought
that a democratic paper which has de
nounced Know Nothingism as severely as
the Clearfeld Republican, would publish an
article abusing a foreigner in such style
as that? Who would have conceived that
editors protesting intense love for the Ger
mans, the Irish, the French, &c, would
permi. such bitter feelings of ''disgust and
indignation" not only to rankle in their
hearts, but break out in bitter invective
and abuse 1t is more than we ever antic-
ipated-more than we had a right to ex-
pect-but it shows clearly the hypocrisy
that the Democratic editors are practicing
towards the foreign-born citizens of the
United States We have called attention
to the fact only for the purpose ofexposina
the insincerity of their professions. II
Carl Shurz had been making Democratic
speeches, we have no doubt he would have
been regarded as the best sort OF a mar.
and sound patriot, by Locofoco editors
generally.

The Good Pastor.
BY JAMES X PAULDINCf.

i'i JAMES n I-hI Il1DlNtT'
\ man full of charity, Of humility, and
all the examples Of virtuous pastor.
Without pride, without arrogance, without
hypocrisy, there is q beautiful simplicity
in his life and actions, a kindness, a gen
tIeness, forbearance, tremendously com
bined with bcld zeal, never tiring indus
try. in doing good to all, that marked him
out as one of those chosen shepherds sent
by heaven as a blessing TO some chosen flock
Cheerful without leyity, he joined in all
their innocent amusements Of his simple
practitioners, and happy himself in the con-
sciousness of a useful and virtuous life, as
well as in the rational anticipation of bliss
ful eternity, he walked among his people
not as a shadow darkening all around, but
as Il sun, cheering, animating, blessing
those who had basked in his smiles Care
less of his rest, and his personal labors, he
was ready at all times by day and by night
to 90 forth to comfort the afflicted, relieve
the sick and sooth the dying. He asked
nothing for himself, and gave every thing
to others; he labored not in his own vine
yard, but in that of his Master, and the
fruits Of his exertions soon became visible
to every eye. A careful innocent gayety
soon began to appear again in the village;
the people went forth to their daily occu-
pations with smiling hopes, that caused all
to exert themselves in their various pur-
suits Begging took refuge in the labors of
its own hands, and found its reward in the
comforts of independence, and the appro-
wing smile Of the excellent pastor, who ne
yer lost an opportunity of rebuking the
idle, or applauding the industrious, for
we'll he knew that among all classes of man
Lind aad especially the laborers, idlaness is
but another name for sin and misery In
short, blessed by such an example, and
led by such guide, it was not long before
Elinsburg became the model of Virtuous
and happy village; and it might be said
with truth that neither poverty nor vice
was any longer known among It's inbab-
itants. Such are the benefits of a good ez-
ample combined with good precepts, and
such the blessings of pious shepherd,
who fulflls his duty to his Maker, to his
creatures, and to the holy calling by which
he is sanctifed and ennobled.

The Abolitionists Against Lincoln.

Gerrit Smith was nominated for the Presi-
dency, who accepted the honor in rather .
lugubrious letter Conforming to the usage
of other parties, they put forth platform
Of principles, part Of which deserves th5
serious attention of all rejecting men.
Here are two of the resolutions:
Reso4ced, That for Abolitionists to vote fer
q candidate like Abraham Lincoln, who
stands ready to execute the accursed fugitive
slave law, to suppress instructions among
slaves, to admit new slave States, and to sup
port the ostracism, socially and politically. Of
the black man of the North, is to give The lie
to their professions; to expose their hypocl,,
sy to the world, and to DO what they can u
put far off the day of the slave deliverance,
Resolced, That the almost infnitesimGl
amount of anti slavery professions made by
the Republican party is entirely inadequate
to cover or excuse the heayen-defyiag efront,
cry with which it praolaims its intention +.
quiet agitation" upon the subject Of tho
slaves right to liberty. 81
These declarations against Mr.. Lincoln
for being conservative, and for no othes
reason, furnish the best answer for all the
Inscriptions charges which have been
made against him as an ultra. 1t may. be
fairly assumed that he is about right, and
occupies the middle ground Of moderation,
when thus assailed BY the 5isrnionists at
one extreme, and their natural allies, the
abolitionists, at the other No better evi-
dcnce could be furnished, in our estima
ton, that mis- position is the safe one,
when he fails to square to the projudiccs
Of either class Of ultras Mr. Clay and
Mr. Webster were both denounced in Ike
manner, and with just as little reason.
