'Copperheads! Copperheads!"


This is the war cry of the Abolition scribbler
who pays 5000 per annum for the privilege Of
making all the money he can out of such mis-
representation, viliication and abuse of the Dem
ocratic party as his added head is capable Of
inventing. No proprietor of newspaper who
has any desire to keep up the responsibility Of
his journal, would venture to fill his columns
with all kinds of groundless charges against,
and every species of the lowest and foulest
blackguardism of, his political or even his per.
sonal foes Such course would be avoided by
a publisher, for the simple, but forcible reason
that it would do him more harm than good
But Durborrow does not own the Inquirer es-
tablishment-he but rents it for so much per
annum, and, therefore, has no care how much
he damages his landlord, only so he makes the
office pay whilst it is in his hands. Hence it is
that he recklessly inserts in the Inquirer, such
glaring fasehoods as those he published last year
about Andy Crisman, and now promulgates a.
gainst every candidate on the Democratic ticket.
Hence it is that he styles the nominees of the
Democracy "Copperheads" and ''Traitors" and
calls them nick-names and says that they are as
bad as Jeff Davis himself What does he care
whether he tells the truth or not, if he can Gre
ate sensation that will bring him one or two
subscribers. Leading Republicans may ex-
postulate with him; personal friends may ad-
wise him to be less mendacious and vituperative;
the proprietor of the Inquirer may recommend
to him different course; but to all these he
turns deaf ear, for he must make as much
money as possible out of the machine whilst he
is permitted to run it, and he knows that he
will soon be supplanted by another engineer
SO, instead OF trying to make decent paper
and trusting to the appreciation of the intelli-
gent and the good, he makes the Inquirer re-
ceptacle for any thing and all things that please
the fancy of the degraded and delight the hearts
of the malignant. BY SO doing he fishes up an
occasional postage stamp which otherwise might
go to the publishers of the N. Y Police Gazette
or the Fishercoman's Aduocate Now, so far as
we are concerned, we say to this sensation-hunt-
ing editor, Go on: denounce and slander Us as
much as you please. We know that your bread
and butter depend on your doing so. Let your
slogan, therefore, be "Copperhead Copper
head!' and let your editorials be exclusively on
'Copperheads;" and let your selections be about
nothing but "Copperhsads;" nay, write and
print on the subject of ''Copperheads" until ev-
cry snake your readers get into their boots, shall
be "Copperhead." If your landlord and your
party can survive your 'Copperhead" campaign
we think we will be able to outlive it also.

''Every paper he has issued for the last two
years has been in opposition to the only consti-
tuted authorities in the land"
We copy the above from last weeks Inquirer.
The paragraph relates to the editor of this pa
per. See how plain tale will put this Aboli-
ton calumniator down. We have opposed the
policy Of adopting certain measures which the
Administration at Washington saw fit to adopt
and we have been and are still laboring to bring
about REIMBURSEMENT of those measures and a
return on the part of Congress and the Execu-
tive, to what we believe to have been wiser and
better counsels. This is, in nutshell, our whole
course since the beginning of the present war.
No man can prove that we have done any thing
more than this. When laws were passed of
which we did not approve, we frankly, and,
perhaps, strongly expressed our disapproval /:
but we never resisted any of them, nor counsel
ed others to resist them. Have we then oppo-
sed the CONSTITUTED authorities?" Not at all.
We have only done what every Republican
paper did during the Administrations of Presi-
dents Pierce and Buchanan-we have opposed
some of the measures of the Federal Admins
tration. Does not the same liberty exist in this
country now as then? Does the editor of the
Inquirer admit that civil freedom was better pro-
tected under Pierce and Buchanan than /. is
under Lincoln!
