The abolitionists eontinue TO lay out great
deal OF work for the army 10 do. bu, there Is no
evidence that they intend 10 help the army
perform it. To talk and pratc they seem 10
regard their whole duty, while they insist that
their dogmas must be carried ont without
regard to the cost of other peoples lives and
treasure. 1t is barely possible that after a
time, the country will get enough of the negro,
his insane worshippers, and the consequences
which .Ais species offanaticism has entailed
When Lees army ravaged Pennsylvania, it
took away any quantity of farm wagons-:he

4 paper way down east, speaking of the
recent election in M4iue, says:
1T was especially gratifying on election day,
TO see men who have never before wavered in
their support Of democratic nominations "un-
awed by influence, and unbrlbed by gain" +"
walk up to the ballot box aud vote for Judge
Cony and a vigorous prosecution OF the war.
And it was doubtless more than gratifying
to see those who never at any time wavered
in support of the compact with hell"
John Brown abolitionism, doing the same
thing.
The Abolition papers of Pennsylvania de
clared that ex Vice President Dallas would
support Curtin; he denied it. They declared
that Judge Grier would support Curtin; he
denied it. They put down the Hon. Mr..
Wright fer Cartin; he madea speech on the
eve of the election flat-footed for Woodward.
They declared that Judge Wilkins of Allie
ghany county, was a Curtin man Judge W.
pronounced the assertion a faisehood. These
negro worshippers are as economical of the
truth as nature was frugal toward them in the
bes.owal Of common sense and conscience.
1--WE hav a class of men among Us in Maine
who very much want THE CONSTITUTION AS IT
IS AND TIE UNION AS IT WAS. Have you got
them here? Voices, Yes. l am very
sorry indeed they CANNOT HAVE IT. 1t is mere
demagogueism, mere claptrap; it is nonsense
1t is not very good nOnsense.- Vice President
Hamlin, at Cooper Institute, \. Y.
Did not II. uamlin take solemn oath be,
fore God to support the Constitution and
faithfully obey it. How far then is he from
being public perjarer?
The n. Y. Commercial Advertiser speaks
very disrespectfuy of the new postal currency.
1t says that it can safely say that it is the poor
est piece of engraving we have seen for many
day; that it is about up to the average of a
bottle label, aud inferior to many that respect
able proprietors' use.
The vote in Rhode Island, on the Constitu
tional amendment, providing that foreign born
persons who have served in the army, and who
might be otherwise qualified, should be enfran
chised, stood 1910 for. TO 2SO5 against Only
seven of the thirty three towns in the State
gave majorities for the amendment These
were Democratic towns of course
The Hartford Times says in the fall town
election in Connecticut, the Democrats have
done better than for eight years before.
Two millions and half of postal currency
have been retired. The issue of the fractional
which is to take its place was to have
commenced on Thursday of last week, and six
or seven thousand dollars worth were printed,
but its appearance not being satisfactory, its
destruction was ordered and the issue has been
Indefinitely postponed.
1t is stated that Messrs. Chase, Welles and
Stanton take jim Lanes side in the Missouri
controversy, while Messrs. Seward, Blair and
Bates oppose the radical program.
Stanton and Chase are highly Indignant at
the speech of Mr.. Blair III Maryland, and are
said to be preparing reply. Better get the (
cut throat jim Lane to do it.
The Hartford Times hopes that Mr.. Tilton's
idea of running a negro for President of
the United States will not be carried out as
there is danger that be MIGHT be elected.
The New York money writers think there /
is every prospect that Mr.. Chase will let the /
banks have another S500O0OOO of the new
legal tender notes before Congress meets
Benevolent Chase.
