All past experience has proven that the
intermingliug and amalgamation ofth eau
eassisn and inferior colored races does not
elevate the inferior but degenerates the
superior races. All are brought upon a
level, ultimately, it is true, but that level
is inVari ably far below the standard which
the people of America or the people
of any other great nation occupy With
these facts before the intelligent people of
the North is it TO be wondered at that there
is a growing apathy, and distrust on their
part in relation to the party in power and
its ally the so-called Union party. The
people in the loyal States will assuredly
condemn this radical party at tie ballot

Kentucky Election.


The Republican papers on this coast are
taking much comfort from the result of the
recent election in Kentucky, and they en-
deavor to create the impression that the
successful candidates held views synony-
nous with the Republican or Union party.
Nothing is farther from the truth. The
Union platform oc Kentucky, which all
the candidates fully endorsed is in senti-
ment nearly identical with the Democratic
platform adopted at the Vancouver Con-
vention in this Territory, but is more ex-
plicit. 1t asserts that "our institutions
ar e assailed by an armed rebellion on one
side, which can only be met by the sword,
and on the other by unconstitutional acts
of Congress, and startling usurpations of
power by the Executive, which we have
seen by experiment can be corrected by
the ballot-box." And again, THAT Ken
lucky is loyal to the government of the
United States of America, and is deter
mined to maintain that loyalty against
both domestic and foreign foes" The
ther declares, THAT there is a manifest
difference between any administration of
the government and the government itself;
and enters its "solemn protest against the
proclamation of the President, by which
be assumes to emancipate all slaves within
certain states, holding the same to be un-
wise, unconstitutional and void;" and in
another resolution it declines to accept the
Presidents proposition for compensated
emancipation, as contained in his procla-
nation of 10th of May 1862" After
condemning the Suspension of the writ of
hGbeaS corpus in States where rebellion
does not exist ETC., it says: Kentucky
will adhere to the Constitution and the
Union, as the best, it may be the last, hope
of popular freedom" And finally, it
"hails with pleasurable hope the recent
manifestations of conservative sentiment
among the people of the non-slaveholding
states in their elections, and regards the
same as the earnest of a good purpose on
their part to cooperate with all other 10y
al citizens-give security to the rights of
every section, and maintain the Union and
the constitution as they we're ordained by
the founders of the Republic"
Now can it be supposed that men en-
dorsing the above views will cooperate
with the Abolition party of the North !?
By no means. They will ally themselves
with the conservative Democratic party of
the States and vote with the conservative
Democrats in Congress. The men elected
in Kentucky are War Democrats and if
Republican papers can find any consolA-
ton in such triumphs they are welcome
to it, The ticket has been elected by from
thirty to fifty thousand majority. We Can
hail with pleasure such Union triumphs.

CONTRIBUTIONS To THE SANITARY
FUND.-It is a fact that all the counties in
Washington Territory which gave Demo-
cratic majorities have contributed most
literally to the Sanitary Fund. The
county of Island, which gave Cole 80 ma
iority, has contributed the largest sum of
any county west of the mountains; and
the county of Walla Walla, which is
largely democratic, has contributed more
than any other county in the Territory.
An exchange in speaking of the de-
mocracy of Illinois contributing one hun
dred thousand dollars for the relief of SOL
diers and soldiers families from that State,
says "they must be terrible set of cop
perheads !" but concludes: "Democl ats
manifest their faith by their acts; the abo-
litionists theirs by l0ordS.' 1t must not
be supposed however, that Republicans
do not contribute to the Fund, for we
know of many instances to the contrary.

The Fruits Of Secession.

The fruits of secession are bitter indeed
When we reflect upon the destruction Of
the vast amount of property in the rebel
States, and the desolatiOn consequent upon
an armed invasion, such as has been the
portion of the South since the commence
ment Of the rebellion, we can readily see
that their punishment for the attempted
overthrow of the Federal Union has been
terrible. Instead of destroying the Fede-
raj Government they hare brought destruc-
tion and ruin un0n themselves. Even
with an early peace, the condition of the
rebel States will be almost as desert waste
lheiI railroads destroyed and public and
private property confscated and approPri-
ated in various ways, homes made desOlate,
fields laid waste, towns burned and all
hopes of Southern Confederacy at an
end the measure of their grief will be foil.
| While the war continues, the belt of de-
struction and desolation will continue to
widen on rebel soil, for it has been pract-
cally demonstrated that the rebel armies
cannot maintain foothold in the loyal
States. Wherever it has been tried they
have signally, disaslrously failed. The
copceited boastiDg of the leaders of the
rebellion that they would invade the
| Nh oo1 l,o,bIo bo ao,vo rdlr Voulaa,
has not veen verified; but on the contrary
the South has been invaded, southern ar
rogance rebuked and southernn ''fre eaters
punished, at least, if not BUNDLED. The
temperate, sensible people of the South
must regret the Inauguration of the rebel
lion that has brought upon the poor, the
rich, the innocent and the guilty alike, the
miseries they and we deplore. Surely, the
way of the transgressor is hard Yet a
large portion of the people of the South
are in nowise responsible for the rebellion
and the evils which have marked its foot
steps. These people can have but the
consolation that they did not lnclte rebel
lion and that there is strong hope with
their aid, of securing the blessings of lib
erty, union, peace and prosperity for them
selves and posterity. But in any event, it
will be many years before the South can
become what she was at the beginning OF
the war in point of wealth What con-
trast there is when we compare the destruc-
ton of property of the North with that OF
the South, during the present war 1t seems
to be q one-sided affair in comparison. The
free States have really suffered but little in
this way. The rebel States have steadily
reaped the bitter fruits Of secession from the
beginning. 1t is but justice for the in
famous act.

"THE IDEAE NEGRO OF THE NORTH
'In Trip to Cuba" written by R. II.
Dam, Jr., of Boston, an out-and out Abo-
htionist, he is forced, by being brought
into contact with the negro, to make this
confession : The negro of the North is an
ideal negro it is the negro refined by
white culture, elevated by white blood, in
structed even by white iniquity. The me-
gro among negroes is coarse, grinning,
fat-footed, thick. .skuled creature, as Cali
ban, lazy as the LATEST of brutes, chiefly
ambitions to be of no use to anybody in
the world View him as you will, his stock
in trade is small He has but the tangi-
ble instincts of all Ieatures-love of life,
of ease and offspring. For all else he
must go to school to the white race, and all
