CoTToN, Every Abolition theory is
certain to explode, and with more or less
damage. A recent conceit was the pro.
duction of cotton in high ATTITUDES, and
without negro labor. Some experiments
in the West last year were said to prom
Use success, and this year the farmers
went into the business more extensively.
One morning they walked up to find their
crop and hopes destroyed by frost. The
Chicago Tribune, an Abolition Paper.
says the frost was rather carly to be sure,
but very lucky for "it saves the people

perriments in the future. \ very favor.

A SUCCESSION OF TRfUMPHs.-At each and
every Fair held in 1860, Grover & BAKER were
awarded the highest premiums for their Sewing
Machines and Machine work. In 1861 the same
awards were made them likewise in 1862 and
thus far at every State, and numerous District
Fairs held in 1853, they have received the high
est premium when exhibited in competition with
other machines Among others, in 1868, we
are apprised of First Premiums at the Oregon
New York, Vermont, Iowa, Kentucky, Illinois,
Indiana and Michigan State Fairs. Certainly
no better evidence of the superior merits of the
"GRovuR 4 BAKER" need be adduced than the
fact that their "new style" noiseless machine
has invariably taken the palm, and borne of
the highest honors in every instance, when ex.
hibited, since its introduction in 1860.

FEARFUL HAvoc.-In May 1861, the 1st
Minnesota Regiment entered the service
with its full complement of a thousand
men. After the battle of Bull Run, a re.
cruitng office was opened in St. Paul to
ill up its ranks, and recruits continued to
be sent on-how many, in the aggregate,

fact that St. Paul paper recently ap.

Minnesota First; it having gone into n late
battle with only 800 men and come out
with but one hundred And this is all
that remains of as fine Regiment as was

sad beyond conception is the fearful

PLAIN TALK. The New York Tribune
is pitching into the Administration for
suppressing the truth about disasters. 1t
says the account Of the battle of Chicka.
mauga was so adroitly manipulated by
the Government eensors, that many be-
lieved that Bragg had been whipped. 1t
also intimates that the Sabine Pass cxpc-
dition was only somebody's cotton
scheme, and adds:
owe have lost fourteen guns, three
ships and many lives, have lost time,
which is of incalculable value, have lost
the use ofthe troops, which were urgently
wanted elsewhere; and we have not even
the cotton to balance the account"

REcKLEsSNESS OF REPUBLICAN PoLITI-

speaking of the emancipation proclama-
ton. "The liberties of the citizen are OF
subordinate importance" says the Boston
Journal. Thad. Stevens said, in recent
speech, "the Union as it was, and the
Constitution as it is-God forbid it'll
That may be Abolition doctrine, but it is
the right doctrine" Ben. Butler, in his
Harrisburg speech, said, ~ am not for
the Union as it was" What trust can
be placed in men so careless Of right and
wrong as these Abolition traitors avow
themselves? These fellows don't know
what they say. If the constitution stands
in the way Of their platform they are
ready to "drive through it"-ready to
subvert the Government in order to main

CORRUPT. Lincoln was not conscious
his Administration is corrupt and con-
temptble and extravagant in the eyes OF
the people, would he issue proclamations
prohibiting the people from discussing his
wicked acts? Why does he shrink from
discussion? A good Administration, like
an honest man. has nothing to dread from
criticism. 1t is only the criminal who
breads investigation. That policy which
cannot stand criticism must be weak dan
gerous and disreputabe, and ought to
