preacher who delighted in long sermons,
and who once exchanged with brother

At the usual hour of closing the services,
the people became uneasy, and being in

AN INFAMOUS AvowAL.-The Toledo
Blade admits that the passage of the Critten-
den Com promise by the last Congress would
have preserved the peace of the country and
maintained the Union intact, but avows
that the Republicans could not support that
Compromise because it would have been

sions,' TO have done which, says the Blade,
would have been degrading to Republicans,
&c. This IS a precious confession, truly
The Republican leaders refused to pass the
Crittenden Compromise, not because its terms
were unjust to either section of the Union;
not because it conceded to the South more
than she was entitled to under the Consttu
tion-hut simply because It contlicted with
the doctrines of tie Chicago Platform. and
to WELD one jot or title of that Platform
would have degraded the republican party
