The CIR OF s'Sror THIEF. The Abolition.
zsd ''Republicans' know that they deceived
the people, when at the commencement of the
war, they assured them that armies were not be-
ing raised for the adjustment of slavery, and
that the war was to be waged only for the res
toration of the Union. Hence, when the poor,
weary, diseased and worn out soldier deserts in
order to visit his starving wife and children,
these miserable political hucksters, feeling that
on them rests the blame for the discomfort which
caused him to leave the army in order to screen
their own guilt from public observation, raise
the cry that the "Copperheads" and those whom
they term ''Secession Sympatbizers,' are the
canse of desertion. But the people know tina.
the Abotionists alone are in the fault. They
got men to enlist by telling them that they were
not to fight to free the negro, but only for the
Union. They have broken their word with
those men and are now trying to compel them
to fight for the freedom of the negro. That is
tho reason why there is so much desertion.-
Tue cry of s'stop thief" will not do in this
casc.
DowNRIGHr FAIsTFIcATroN.-Th Abolition
organ around the corner tells deliberate false
hood when it says that its party friends carried
their whole ticket in East Providence tp., at the
late Spring Elections, with the exception of two
Inspectors) sfby hundred and ten or twenty
majority" The Abolition majority in that tp.
has been cut down to so and 60 for the differ
cnt township officers whilst theirinspectors have
each, only five or six majority over the Demo-
cratic candidate. The highest Abolition vote
polled was only 10, whilst the Democratic vote
was 45, as large as is generally poled at State
elections. The Organ also claims '1oyal gains"
in West Providence, Middle and South Wood
bury and Union! 1t must mean Democratic
gains, for in all of those townships the Demo-
Gratis have done better than they have for years.

This one is rather loose!
MADAME DEMoREsT's MIRROR OF FAsIiIoN---
We are in receipt of this excellent work on the
fashions, and must concede it the palm for thor
oughness and reliability. 1t is beautifully gotten
up, being finally and profnscly cmbclshed with
colored plates OF the fashions, in the best style
of engraving. Madame Demorest's patterns,
accompanying the book, form novel; but very
important and useful feature Of the work IF
our fair readers desire a good fashion book, let
them send ut once for 'sDemorest's Mirror"
Howard HOUSE, BALTIMoRE.--This we'll
known and popular hotel has passed into the
hands of Col. w. C. REAMER, under whose
proprictorship it will be greatly improved in
many important particulars We hope that
such of our friends as may visit Baltimore, will
DO themselves the favor of stopping at the How
ard.
s-Whenever you hear of \ Aboltion talk from
the Army, depend on it that it comes from some
fellow who expects promotion or who is feath-
ering his nest by tickling the political preludi-
oes Of the War Department. There are plen-
ty of miserable creatures in the army (as well
aselsewhcro) who would sell every principle they
ever had land then would not part with mucb)
for few hundred dollars in greenbacks. We
admire and love the honest, straightforward
soldier who does his duty because he thinks it is
done for the good of his country; but we have
quito different opinion of the fellow who writes
bone that lie believes in cxterminating the peo-
pie of the South, men, women and children, and
adds a postscript stating that he has been pro-
notcd to some petty little Office.
eyThc House of Representatives at Harris
burg has passed bill to prevent the immigra-
ton of negroes into this state. The same body
has also passed resolutions protesting against
the tyrannical and unconstitutional acts of the
President OF the United States. OF course
neither of these movements will 60 through the
Aboliiionized Senate. The people of Pennsyl-
vania will regenerate that branch Of the legis-
laLure at the next election.
ssa~Our Old friend +. M. Fisher, familiarly
known as :'Cheap John" is about TO establish
q: general variety and shoe store, in the room
recently occupied by J. B. Magill, and former
ly used as store room by Sam'l. Brown,
decd We have no doubt that Mr. Fishers store
will be quite an addition to the merchandising
business of our place and hope that he win re-
.ce.gc lis share of public patronage.
We have received several numbers of the new
Democratic Morning daily, just started in Phil.
