PROSPECTUS FOR 1861

foIJTicaL-The great political campaign oil
1860 is closed. The battle has been fought and
won, and the eagles of victory perch on the Re-
Publican banners. ALBANIAN LINCOLN has been
/ trismphsntly elected President Of the United
States for four years from the 18th Of March, 1861
We are entering upon year that will be
memorable in the annals of American politics.
/ The Fire Eaters OF the Cotton States have us !.
dertaken to break up the American Union.
=, The people have decided against them at the
ballot box, and they refuse " submit to the
verdict unless their demands shall be complied
Wish. which are Is follows -
DEMANDS OF TEE FIRk-EATKRs.-lst.T That
the Frss States shall pay for all fugitivss from
labor who escape. ID. That all State laws
against kidnapping shall be repealed. Sd. That
Slavery shall be extended into all the Terrific
riss and protected BY . Federal Slave Code.
4lh. That the Slave traffic shall be re opened
in the District of Columbia. 5th. That . law
shall be passed granting the right to shareholders
to travel aud .cjsurn in the Free States, accoa-
panied BY their slaves.
In case OF non compliance with these pro
slavery demands. the Fire Eaters threaten to
sscsds from she Union, and set up a Southern
Confsderacy, reopen the African Slave trade,
and attempt to found great slaveholding en-
pire. by absorbing Mexico, Central America
and the Islands Of the Gulf. Such is the pro-
gramme of the Di sunionists.
In this crisis it behooves every sound patriot
and friend Of the Union and Constitution to
stand BY Lincoln's Administration rs the old
Democrats stood BY Gen Jackson when assailed
by South Carolina nulli6en. The free North
must not be bullied nor frightened by the arro-
CANT oligarchy into base surrender of its dear
est rights and most cherished principles.
OrHrR QUEsTIoNs.-And there are other i'm
portant matters to come before the new Admin
istration. Among these are, Free Homsstssds

Harbors Construction Of . Railroad to the
Pacific Encouragement Of the Manufacturing
and Farming industry Of the country; Rstrsnsh.
msnt and Reform in the Administration of
Government . restoration, in short, Of the
earlier and pursr days of the Republic. On all
these questions, the ThBusE will ever be found
an earnest champion on the side of Freedom,
Right, and Patriotism.
