both included in the sweeping term
Abolitionism. In order to cover up the
eunsnmmate demagogueism Of men who
sre to control the machinery. the name
Of "Democracy" is invoked, coupled
with loud zeal for the "Union as il
was, and the Constitution as It is."-
The day has passed when the masses Of
the North can longer be guled by any
such sopbislry. The stern realities OF
this terrific war, have educated them
beyond the point, where such doctrines
pass current. The treacheries and cor
rnptions Of the Buchanan dynasty. are
vet too fresh ia their minds, and the
fruits of it, m the universal mourning
all over the land toe apparent, for even
the smallest shadow of success on part
Of these conspirators. The bleody
harvest we are now resping, the people
well know, is the legitimate fruits Of
the seed sown by that party, and they
will hardly allow their credulity to be
imposed upon by the same crafty lead
ers, ere the roar Of JEFF. Davis artillery
has ceased to reVsrbsrate through ths
land.isgs -elco. h.s55-s -s.s.
1t is fact, patent to the eye Of any
one bata Breekinridge Democrat. that
the advocates Of unconditional emanei-
patton in the North are as one in q
thousand. Mr.. Lincoln has given re-
peated proofs Of his sincerity in this
respect. His modification Of Fremont's
proclamation, of Hunters, and his nu-
merous messages to Congress on the
subject shows an earnestness against it
which none but the wilfully operverse
can fail to comprehend. Every traitor
knows This weA, and knows Just as wen.
when be repeats the reverse, that he is
Willfully and maEeiously lying. a7f
Yet, in despite Of evidence as clear
IS the sun at noon day, these despicable
Villains are making It the burden of
every speech in or out of Congress,
and striving to mislead the honest loyal
citizens, by working upon their antfpa-
thies to the negro race.
As to the negro equality, we
aver that in the free North, practical
amalgamation is not found. We care
not how radical q man may be in his
abolition rRws. it is seldom it comes
into practice. 1t is only in the sunny
South; in the land of chivaIry and
treason, that negro equality in its worst
phases is Illustrated. Whilst in the
free States the line OF social distinction
between the white and black races, is
as broad and clear as in France or
England, It cannot be denied that in
the South It IS frequently obiiteratsd,
and entirely set aside. We need 60
NO further than the Kanawhs valley to
produce the proof. We have in our
minds eye the wealshiest man IN that
valley who for years has been rearing
$ family, of children by one Of his ewr
slaves. Such cases are numerous IN
the land Of the rebels. Blue eyed
red haired, white skinned negroes, are
much more numerous than those o
genuine African blood. But it Is o
little use to disprove this charge o
negro equality ia the North, because i
Is well known these men do not credi
It themselves. - ~
