poet has said, " Time at last makes all things
even," and the Albany Regency are now reap
ing the fruits Of long series Of political
crimes. They are compelled to drink to the
dregs the cup they poisoned for others, and a
speedy dissolution awaits them. The Regency
was brought forth In sin, Its whole existence
has been one continued lie and fraud, and now
il Is doomed to perish for the accumulated cor
ruptions Of years. These men, pretending to
be democrats, broke up the party in ls4s by
splitting II into two factions and giving the
election to General Taylor. Now, again, in
1860, after a lapse of twelve years, during
which they have perpetrated every enormity in
the State, they again resolve to break up the
party, because they could not control it them
selves, and, by dividing II as before, they have
done their utmost TO give the election to Lin
coin.
To this end they cheated In State Convention
and in caucus, cheated at Charleston and at Bal
timore, cheated everybody with whom they
came in contact But they will never cheat
again, for they will never be trusted more. The
conservative democracy. which Is now being
organized throughout the State, has cut
loose from these political gamblers" as Mr..
Dickinson has so well described them, and will
have nothing further to do with them. The Re-
gency will thus be left without corporals
guard, nobody will vote for their ticket, and
they may as well shut up shop. This will be
the last of them. Their days are numbered,
and their rotten remains will soon be consigned
to the tomb of oil the Capulets, where eternal
oblivion awaits them. The "evil that they have
done will probably live after them. But we
cannot say that "the good will be Inferred with
their bones,n for their whole career has been
one only of evil, and not single bright spot
relieves the dark infamy Of the picture which
their history presents. Whoever after their
death writes their annals true will unfold q tale
Of political iniquity without parallel in this
country, or probably in any other.
SLAVES IN New YoRK-Within the last few
days two slaves have arrived In New York, and
they are still here, walking about, under no
control or guardianship. What are the aboli-
tionis,s about, and the republicans who nuiiify
the Fugitive Slave law that they do not induce

cially as they have been brought here by their
masters not merely in transitu, as was the case
with the Lemons, but on pleasure tour 10 the
free States. We allude 10 the two musicians
who came here with the military company from
Savannah during the last week. One attempt
was made by the aboIitionists to kidnap them;
but they ran for their lives, as If something
dreadful was to happen them, and never stop
ped till they were under the protection Of their
masters. who gave them free permission to
leave If they desired it. But these young men
could not be induced to accept the offer. They
prefer the kind Of slavery TO which they are
subject rather than such freedom as the aboli-
ionists would give them What comment
this upon the humbug anti slavery agitation
carried on for 20 many years at the North and
how carried into the Presidential election by
the republican party.
