ON SUSPICION.

Ii is not little amusing TO note the
amount of editorial steam which has been
blown off during the past year either to
sustain positions which the "logic Of
events" has proved to be without
shadow of foundation, or to sustain or
denounce some plan or project which has
proved at last to be merely a telegraphic
fabrication, got up "on suspicion" for
want Of something real in the way Of
news to make up the necessary amount of
length, breadth, and sensation" for the
associated press" report.
Less than year ago, even, it was
contendcd that the seeded States did not
''mean business" they were only playing
their usual game of brag and bluff
After the fall of Sumpter it was asserted
and believed, that an army of seventy five
thousand raw volunteers would be amply
sufficient to "crush out" secession, and
that twenty thousand men could march
from Washington to New Orleans, sweep
ing disunion from the land as it went
Bulls Run was the Legitimate offspring Of
these delusions, coupled with the tre-
mendous "outsido pressure" caused by
the clamor Of the horde Of fools and
fanatics who in madness ruled the hour"
Privateering by the seeded States was
denounced as piracy; nowthe republican
Administration propose to acknowledge
it as Legitimate warfare, and to treat cap
tured privateers as other "prisoners of
war;" Mason and Slidel were captured,
and the act sustained by Republican
Congress, aud the Republican press uni.
versally. The sequel is we'll understood.
In fact, there has not been proposition
advanced or a position assumed by the
dominant party within the last year, but
has proved false and erroneous, and now
they have the hardihood to urge, as the
only solution of our present difficulties,
the 9randest and most outrageous hum
bug of all, emancipation. If they had
been truthful in their statements, hereto
fore, or the "logic of events" had in any
manner proved the correctness of their
views, in theory or practice, there might
be some sense in their urging this new
doctrine; but they have been wrong con-
stsntly, and it is high time the people
began to discover where this Internal
antislavery "clap-trap" is leading them,
and where it will be likely too soon 70
leade the Nation, unless more rational
and wholesome influence takes its place.
prove all things, hold fast that which is
good,s and if republicanism is whole
some, wise, and benifcent, stick TO it, but
look at the facts as they are, and do not
lend your aid to what you know is wrong,
con suspicion that it may, by the barest
possibility, sometimes bluuder into the
ripht traclt.--------.t-----

My DEAR PRENTICE You will re-
member that when | had the pleasure to
meet you in New York, not long ago, |
mentioned to you that / was going to
Withdraw from the Knickerbocker with
for over twenty-five years. My reasons
were that the proprietor was specializing
with the Magazine, that for eight months
it had not paid cent to me, nor to any
contributor, except in q single instance,
its simple material consuming all its re.
ceipts; and that its literary matter was
to be identified with that Of another Pc
riodical, "The Continental" and both
were TO be thoroughly emancipation and
abolitionist.
Now when in May, 1884, / took charge
Of the Rnickerbocker as sole editor aud
joint proprietor, l promised that thence
forth all politics, all religious discussions,
or polemncal differences Of opinion should
be sedulously excluded from its pages;
that there surely could be one broad neu-
trail ground upon which all parties in
politics, and all denominations III religion,
could meet without "treading on each
others toes" and that that common
ground was LITERATURE How well |
have kept this promise, let fifty volumes
of the "Old Knck" bear witness, and
the result was, that there grew up an
affection in the public mind toward the
magazine and its editor, which was to me
inexpressibly delightful. And such a
corps of contributors as ! drew around
me were never approached by any maya.
zine in America.
Before the fall OF Sumter I was in
hopes that the black cloud Of secession
might prove to be "no bigger than a
mans hand and when, some time before,
made my little nine year-old a kite TO
font in the free air Of Rockland over the
rartan Zee, "Split the difference" iii
this wise; the upright was the northern
cellar, the cross piece was southern pine F;
the bow was Of old hickory; aud the tail
was made Of alternate scraps Of the
Charleston Mercury and the New York
Tribune. ..
OF no avail this proprietary "compro-
mise kitp,"' Sumter fen; the brave, noble
Anderson hiled our great metropolis with
his renown aud his praises and hence
forth Union was the watcli.word, the only
one here, aud my little boy, instead OF
flying compromise Kites, was the standard
bearer III company OF beautifully uni
formed Juvenile Zouaves; aud il used TO
thrill me to take hold of his little moist
hand in the night, blistered Ia carrying
our glorious flag.
OF course, war was now the topic in
the hmckerbocker although every fact
had been exhausted in the daily papers
a month before, even when the war arli-
clcs were not "made out OF whole cloth
in the office. -.-r
That could be Stood but when the
proprietor began to crowd politics into
