White VS.. Black.

The two races can never commingle,:
nor exist together on common platform
ofequality. Abolitionists and sickly SEN
timentalists may pass by their own color
if they please, and reserve all their sympa-
thies for the Suffering slaves,' and crack
Drained philosophers may theorize and
persuade themselves that the negro is ca
pable of enjoying common heritage Of
freedom with the white man, and, intox.
icated with this idea, may endeavor : to
put it in practice, as they are attempting
at present; but the silent workings Of the
irrevocable law of races will scatter all
their fine spun theories and upset their
calculating philosophy. 1t is an old say
ing that necessity knows no law" and
from present appearances, in view of the
threatened inundation of ignorant blacks
from the South coming in contact with
the white working man of the North,
crowding him from his hitherto undisputed
field of labor, the feeling of opposition
will grow in intensity until the white
man will feel the necessity" Of getting
rid of the negro at whatever cost, and that
feeling will eventually exterminate him
or drive him beyond our borders. Ours
is Government of white men, made for
the benefit of ohite men, and Quixotic at
tempts of silly theorists to raise the negro
to an equality with the white man, by
seducing him from his natural field of la
Dor in the South, to crowd out the white
laborer of the North, will only have the
effect to hasten the day of his destruction.
Reader, ponder over this question, for it
is one that is rapidly coming up for solu-
ton, and will be more momentous in its
consequences than any that has yet come
before the American pcople.-Lancaster

WHAT Is WAR?

This question naturally suggests itself
to the mind of Marylanders. The State
Legislature has committed the people Of
Maryland to war policy.
What is war? Pick up your daily pa
per and read descriptions of the fierce
conflicts which are taking place, and which
are filing hundreds of houses with the
dark shadow of death Look at the hos
pitals-fond idolized sons, brothers and
fathers dying with no home face near, no
friendly voice to receive the last words ere
the spirit wings its flight to another world
What is war? Imagine your conster-
nation, reader, if you heard the approach
of hostile army! See your fair crops
laid waste, and that homestead, which is
endeared to you by a thousand tender as
sociations, consuming in flames lit by the
torch of foe which respects no law of
civilized warfare!
What is war? Mrs. Hannah More
thus forcibly answers the question:
-':For the vanquished-ch
For the proud victor-wbat? Alas to reign
Der desolated nations-a drear waste,
BY mans crime by mans lust of power,
Unpeopled! Ravaged fields assume the place
Of smiling harvests; and uncultured plains
Succeed the fertile vineyard barren waste
Deforms the spot once rich with luscious fig
And the fat olive. Devastation reigns
IT II 8 When the song
Of dear bought joy, with many triumph swell,
Salutes the victor's ear, and soothes his pride,
How is the grateful harmony profaned
With the sad dissonance Of virgins cries,
Who mourn their brothers slain! Ofmatrons hoar
Who clasp their withered hands, and fondly ask,
With lucrative shrll-their slaughtered sons
How is the laurel's verdure stained with blood,
And soiled with widows tears p

MARRIED AND S1NGLE.-I have obser-
we'd that married man falling into mis-
fortune is more apt to retrieve his situation
in the world than a single one; partly
because he is more stimulated to exertion
by the necessities of the helpless and be-
loved beings who depend upon him for sub
sistence; but chiefly because his spirits are
soothed and relieved by domestic endear-
ments, and has self respect kept alive by
finding that, although all abroad is dark
ness and humiliation yet there is still a
little world Of live home, Of which he is the
monarch. Whereas single man is apt
to run to waste and self-neglect, to fancy
himself lonely and abandoned and his
heart to fall to ruin, like some deserted
mansion, for want of inhabitants.

A NOBLE BoY--Nos long since, neat
ly dressed little boy not more than ten
years old, was standing on the side walk
of crowded street. watching the people
as they passed. Presently little girl, sew
eral years younger than himself, attempt
ing to cross the muddy street, fell, and
soiled her dress and hurt herself consider
ably. In moment the little fellow ran
to her, helped her up, spoke to her in the
kiudest tones, inquired where she lived,
and led her away toward her home. She
was not pretty child, neither was she
handsomely dressed on the contrary, she
looked very poor, but the noble little fell
low did not stop to think of that. He
saw that she needed assistance, and that
was enough. His heart was full of kind
ness which only waited for an opportunity
to show itself. One could easily tell that
boys fortune He has good mother,
and he listens to her Instructions He
will grow up beloved and happy. He
will never be poor, for he already possesses
the choicest treasure-a kind heart Try
and be like him.

D0~ The Fort Pillow correspondent of
the Cincinnati Gazette sums up the strength
of the Confederate fleet thus: aN tE
The feet is said to consist Of ten boats,
although [ have only been able to learn the
names of nine, as follows:--McRae guns
Ponchartrain, 7 guns; Lizzie Simmons,7
guns; Joy, 4 guns; Livingston, 6 guns;
Polk, 6 guns; Price, 6 guns; Beauregard,
6 guns; Bragg, 6 guns one, name I'M
known, say, 6 guns Total, 62 guns.
Two or three of the boats are "convert-
ed" schooners, the remainder being cut
down river steamers.
In addition to their gunboats, the Con-
federates are said to have four rams, or
n.prowed boats, designed especially to
run Com. Foote'S fotilla down. A good
deal of confidence is placed in this state
ment, which is no doubt true; and sharp
watch is kept for the rams every night

ASHLAND, Sept. I'd, 1913.
"My Dear Sir ALLOW me to select a
subject for one fyour tracts, which, treat
ed in your popular and condensed way, I
think would be attended with great and
good effect. I mean Abolition.
at is manifest that the ultras of that
party are extremely mischieyous, and are
hurrying on the country to fearful conse-
quences. They are not to be conciliated
by the Wings. Engrossed with single
idea, they care for nothing else.
"Andyet they would see theAdministra-
ton Of the Government prcipitate the ma
ton into absolute ruin before they would
lend helping hand to arrest its career.
They treat worse, denounce most, those
who treat them best, who so far agree
with them as to admit slavery to be an
evil. Witness their conduct toward Mr..
Briggs and Mr.. Adams in Massachusetts,
and toward me.
81 will give you an outline Of the man.
her in which I would handle it. Show
the origin of slavery. Trace its introduce
ton to the British Government. Show
how it is disposed of by the Federal Con-
stitution; that it is left exclusively to the
States, except in regard to fugitives, direct
taxes and representation. Show that the
agitation Of the question in the free States
will first destroy all harmony, and finally
lead to disunion, poverty, and perpetual
war, the determination of the African
race-ultimatc military despotism.
"But tho great aim and object of yonr
tract should be to arouse the laboring
classes Of the free States against Abolition!
Depict the consequence to them Of imme-
date Abolition. The slaves, being free,
would be despised throughout the Union I;
they would enter into competition with the
free laborer-with the American, the Irish,
the man-reduce his wages, be con-
founded with him, and affect his moral
and social standings. And as ultras go
both for Abolition and Amalgamation,
show that their object is to unite in mar
riage the laboring white man and black
q woman, to reduce the white laboring man
to the despiscd and degraded condition Of
the black man.
81 would show their. opposition to Col
onization. Show its humane, religious,
and patriotic aim, That they are those
whom God has separated. Why do Abo-
litioniSts oppose Colonization To keep
and amalgamate together, two races in VIC
lation Of God will, and keep the blacks
here, that they may Interfere with, degrade
and debase the laboring whites Show
thatthe British Government is cooperating
with the Abolitionists for the purpose d
dissolying the Union. i am perfectly sat.
isGcd that il will do great good. Let me
hear from you on this subject"

ANOTHER ABOLITION ABsURDITY.-
The Hanover (Pa.) Citizen, speaking of
the resolution which passed the House of
Representatives, to aid the States in
omancipating their slaves, says:
A resolution was adopted in the House
of Representatives, which indicates the
the determination Of the party in power
to interfere directly with the institution
of slavery in the States that cherish it.
Who will attempt hereafter to defend the
Republican" organization against the
charge Of Abolitionism or rather what
conservative man deluded into the sup
port of the Chicago Platform, under the
belief that it was consistent with the Con-
stitution, and that through its operations
all interests would be protected, the CON-
mon prosperity receive a fresh impetus,
and no right of any kind be infringed,
can consent longer to cooperate with those
whose acknowledged leaders hold the
written laws as of value only as long and
so far as it may seem to harmonic with
their sectional objects, and who torture
and pervert it to suit their views, or violate
it openly in furtherance of their aims
the freedom of the black race and destruc-
ton of States rights? This has been the
real purpose of the managers, whose
scheme received form through the con-
vention at Chicago Concoc.ed by Gree
ley and his fanatical associates and Cocoon
spirators, it was designed to play into the
hands of the worst political abomination
that ever cursed our country.
Events pursue each other so rapidly
that we would not venture to surmise
what will be the next encroachment upon
constitutional liberty. 1t may be forcible
emancipation, to be followed by the oblitera-
ton of State lines, and with the last the
erection of monarchy but we shall see.
We have termed the resolution of Mon
day an Abolition absurdity, for SO we re-
gard it. The States named in it, though
true to the Government, are yet jealous of
their sovereignty, and will scorn as they
have right to scorn such unwarrantable
intermeddling The resolution has no
practical force whatever, and Congress
sional enactment to initiate or influence
the extinction of slavery therein, will, we
apprehend, prove nullity in its operation,
though it will in time return to plague and
oyerwhelm its authors and advocates.
