Shareholders. If tie North bis sipned, be hci
sinned with it, and We say explicitly thai
there is not an avcrment of the Chicago Plat
form, which has not at some period of Mr.
George r. Curtis's public life received his
sanction. He should have had better men,
ory or, at least, less confidence in the forget
fulnes, OF others. The North stands now just
where it did when Nj. Webster announced
bis inyincible repugnance to the extension OF
Slavery in thunder tones which quite drowned
Mr.. Curtis's feeble amen;' and we should
very much like 70 know BY what authority this
last Boston Orator turns now npon tie North,
and while it is giving its blood as ii It were
water, and its treasure as il it were dross' IN
defense of she Constitution, charges y, IN some
indefinite way, discerBbe only to Nr.curtls IS

Mr. Curiis's chronology, with having made
open and un1isguised war" upon that same
Constitution
IL is astonishing to notice how Mr.. Curtis
softens when he comes to his next question
" What has been going on in the South curing
the same period ?" Why the South has been
" i-ritated"-the South loved The Union uD 10
1885. but since tba. time il he's been dreactnTy
50 irritated"-the South struggled against he
doctrine Of Secession az long IS it could, bit
YVES finally " irritated' into disleyaty. Aud
no "irritsted" the South Why the North,
If course. and thus AR. Curtis continues to
make Lie fellow-citizens miserable s'nners, and
The STAY eholders 20 many patriots, whose only
fault is that they have nos the patience Of the
saints. This exceeding " irritation which has
