appointed in his place.
: We clip the above from the Pine and
Palm, an abolition paper, published il Bos
ton and New ! ork simultaneously. Il is
pu. forth, in that sheet with a gusto, as
showing The advance of ''liberal principles"
| in The government, when white men can be
turned ont OF public employment TO make
room Tor negroes. lnasmuch as the an
nouncement comes from The other side, we
suppose we may take it for truih--it is not
ga secession lie," as our opposition friends
are fond of clubbing everything that don't
| suit them.
! w think it would be we'll for white men
and especially for laboring men, 10 notice
this appointment. With the cry of better
| times-of free farms for The iarmless-of
! free homes for the homeless-of tree speech,
| Tree territories, and free labor for our labor-
! ing men, hundreds of thousands of votes
were stolen by the Lincoln party last fall
and what do those men find now? They
find the wages OF labor reduced one fourth
or one third in many instances, and four
days week al that. They find coilieries,
iron works, and other great industrial and
commercial enterprises stopped, or on the
| point of stopping. They find, instead of
plenty of work al wages that would make
their families comfortable, their families
crying for bread-and all this they find as
! the feast OF better times which was spread
cut for them 10 partake of last fall Free
| farms for The farmless they now find 10 mean
a spot of ground about six feet by two,
which they al liberty 10 occupy from
this TO the day of judgment, in the shape
of soldiers grave and for homes for the
homeless, they have found that in all future
prospects, the homes for their starving fami-

poor house, and their dependence the char.
tiles of the world, instead of free speech,
they find they have the freedom TO talk as

complain or reiierate the cry of their star

against giving them employment; or il

them of the substance given them by their
State.to make them comfortable while fight
ing the battles of their country, like poor
Balso at Harrisburg, the authorities arrest
them for treason and throw them into a
dungeon. disgraced and dishonoreG They
find that instead OF comfortable clothes, they
are furnished with garments OF "shoddy,"
| that wear out and leave them naked in a
week and instead of shoes 10 keep their
feet from the burning sand during their
long and weary marches they are furnish
ed with sandals soled with white pine sha-
wings. Instead of protection TO home indus
try as they were promised, they find an
army OF ignorant and 5arbarous slaves le.
loose upon them to compete with their La
Dor and disgrace their employment, and
then every little while are regaled with
news, like the above, that white men are
tnrned out of the government employment
TO make room for strapping son OF Ethio-
pia. And then white men find also. that it,
they meet to consult together TO devise a
redress of grievances, or how they shall
protect themselves against these things, the
very newspapers that were so loud in prom
ises but a few months ago, ridicule their
efforts and take part with lazy and barbar.

going on every day about us, and we ask in
all sincerity and earnestness, how long shall
it be submitted to! Under the cry of enc
