A BLACK RECORD. Who ever supposed
that any party in power could do so much
mischief as the AboltioniStS have in the
three past years Under the pretext of
saving the Union, they have destroyed it

liberty; personal safety; piled up debts

opened bastlleS; employed spies and in
formers; intimidated Courts; appointed
notorious thieves to office; freed thou.
sands of negrOes,and brought to the grave
a half million of white men. They have
bequeathed to the country family quar-
rel, an enormous national debt, penury,
blood and shame. From the effects of
their malignant, corrupt and tyranncal
rule the country may not recover for
century. And yet, with a record black
ard blistering, they have the audacty to
ask ths people to keep them in power
four years longer, to complete their work
of disgrace and ruin

IT Is AN ESTABLISHED FACT that from time
immemorial there have existed certain laws os
fashion, which all acknowledge, and to which
Pll pay due reverence. Men bow readily to the
tickle goddess, and the ladies' yield gracefully
TO her supreme sway. This season, as an
Agreeable change from the styles of the last,
the ladies have for anew feature the fashion
Of fsmbrOidering and braiding all outer gar
zssnts; aud sssuredly 1t is most beautfuland
elegant style of trimming, and affords a wide
Pops Tor the exhibition of their good taste and
skill. II 10 also the fashion for ladies' TO exc
cate all this elaborate work by the aid of the
Sewing Machine; and the constant use to
which every "Grover & Baker" is now applied
BY its fair owner, is certain evidence that they
are not uuprepared for the emergency, and
have an nnfailing friend on whom they can re-
Iy to sustain them in the crisis for to the
"GrOver d Baker" can they apply to execute
the requirements of the law as laid down il

thorities. F. F. Barss is agent for this iuvalu

that the President is above the Constitu-

The Constitution makes him President

legience to the laws, to Abraham

traitor to, if not to the laws Who has
given to Aholitionism the right to set
aside the law, and fix the seal of treason
to those who refuse to recognize its su

> The General Conference of the Methodist
Episcopal Church, now being held in Phil
adelphia, appears to be engaged in elucida-
ting the doctrine of miscegenation, specu-
lating upon the destiny of the irrepressible
negro, and wraDgling about the terms in
which they shall endorse the Presidents
proclamation and the other African meas
ures of the Administration. The character
of the Conference may be inferred from the
fact that the ranting, roaring, Rev. Colonel
GRANVILLE MOODY, of Ohio, is one of its
leading spirits.

The brilliant combination of loyalty, re-
ligion, morality, philanthropy and shoddyi
yclept 1.-THE Union party" in the Toledo
Congressional District, have become in
volved in a rancorous quarrel about thu
nominee for Congress in place of JAMES NJ,
ASHLEY. The Toledo Commercial is the or
gan of ASHLEY, who has been playing OF
some of his old tricks to secure the nomi-
nation for himself the Blade speaks in the
interest of some other Abolition pat
riot-probably Senator HALL-and comes
out against ASHLEY with charges which, ii
true, prove that he is not a fit man to rep
resent any constituency in Congress. The
controversy between the two factions does
not appear to involve any question of i'm
portance, and is simply scurrillous con-
test between rival pot house politicians,
more remarkable for the amount of mean-
ness and corruption in the Abolition party
which it disclOses, than for any adherence
to principle connected with it. The best
thing the people of that District can do in
the premises, is to throw both factions over
board, and unite in electing some sound.
conservative and decent Democrat who
will represent them in Congress more cred
itably than either ASHLEY or HALL.
