what The Aboliiionists Maye Done

When the nation comes finally to strike its
balance with the Abolition party, we do think
itswill be found very materially in our debt
1t has generally rendered us guild pro quo
for everything it.has taken from us.
It has deprived US of our gold and silver,
but has it not supplied us with redundancy of
greenbacks and POSTAL currency?
1T does not allow our legally constituted
tribunals to adjudge and punish offenders, it
has given us army of provost marshals, who
kindly relieve our courts of all such trouble.
1t has imperiled and partially destroyed our
commerce, in lieu of which we have an enor-
nous national debt. -
1t has taken away theAwrit of ha6cas corpus
but it has supplied us innumerable Federal
prisons. @
1t has suppressed our laws and our Consti-
tuition, bit its proelamations equivalent to
both. sse
1t has robbed us Of half million lives, but
it has 6lled our land with widows, orphans and
cripples. F7
If we have given our sons and brothers to
swell the ranks of the army, it has balanced
them with eIrnancip iputc4 atrubautis.
We can sing tha Star.Spangled banner as
national song no more, but, in the opinion of
administrationists, stJohn Browns body" is
quite as musical and much more patriotic.
1t has stricken down free speech, but then
it has invented new punish hwent-banishmen
for opinions sake.
In place of peace, prosperity and free trade,
we now have war, a multitude of tax gatherers.
and sKarms of shoddy contractors.
In short, we can specify nothing of which
the administration has deprived the people for
which it has not invented a more than ade-
quate return. .aAf = E! = -

A SPECIMEN PREAcHER.-A couple of Sum
days ago a rascal, whose name we have for
gotten, superintendent the administration of
the sacrament:in oneof the churches in Car
roll county. He said no Vallandigham man
should commune and seemed very particular
about the kind of christians he admitted
We'll, that was right. Being good man him
self, he ought TO cleanse his church. But un-
fortunately for Dir. Preacher, some three or
four years ago he seduced young girl and
brought her to grief and ruin He was tried
in the Carroll Common Pleas and verdict of
50, 900 rendered against him. Now, we think
no good Vallandigh man other christian
would want such a scoundfel to adfnInister the
communion to him. So ne are glad they
were refused. It is coming fast to what we
long have predicted;-.the rascals are all going
into the church and driving the good men out.
No long time will elapse till a mans religion
vi Il be proven by the fact that he has no
church certificate about him.
