The Abolition Party.

The Abolition party are only powerful as
they conceal their real principles, aud il is
because so many Democratic papers did

they are still enabled TO deceive the people

of Virginia said, and he had an opportunity
Of knowing very much about MIR LINCOLN

and this, TOO, was the exac, key TO his char

President Johnson on Negro suffrage.

President Johnson gave yesterday a proof
Of his sincerity and circums peclness with
which, in his frequent addresses during the
first lew days after his accession, he declar-
ed tha; his past record was The key 10 his
iuturs course. Ia reply to delegation
who called on him, yesterday, the President
said that the question OF negro suffrage ought
10 be left TO the decision of The loyal
white population of the States Interest,"
ed. This is consistent both with his rec
ord as State rights Democrat and his &C.
ton as Military Governor of Tennessee
The new Constitution of Tennessee formed
under his aus pices, and in the adoption OF
which he had the rights of citizen Of the
State, excludes negroes not only from the
sufFs but from testifying in courts of
justice. Out of Tennessee, and as Presi-
dent of United States, he can speak only in
the character of Federal officer and as a
Federal officer, bound by the Constitution,
he had no choice bur to dispose oil the gen.
eral question of negro suffrage PRECISELY as
his speech yesterday shows that he has de-
cided TO do. II is matter not within the
the Federal Government, and President
Johnson remits il to The States.
The only argument which seems even
plausible in favor OF the federal Govern
ment Iranscend:ng its authority and confer
ring the sIectivs franchise upon the nesoes,
is, tha, their votes are needed as counter
poise 10 the disloyaI procllyilies OF the
Southern whites. We deem it fortune that

He is competent 10 judge what will do in

Andrew Mckinley, who was convicted
Thomas Shaveland, and uuder sentence OF
death, broke from the Jail OF this county ou
the night of NJ olday last. He managed 10
escape from the cell in which he was con>
fined, by saving of six iron bars of the
window. Tfris must have taken him a con-
siderable time, as two of the bars were
three-quarers OF an inch square, while the
remaining bars we're half an inch in thick
ness by two inc hes in width. From the
window of the cell he lowered himself down
10 the Jail yard By making rope out OF the
sheets of his bed. He got out of the Jail
yard by digging away the ground beneath
the stone sill under the gateway, there be-
ing no stone foundation TO impede him in
his work. He has not been captured yel.-
The Sheriff. as will be seen in another COL
umn. offers reward of fifty dollars for his
apprehension.
Mckinley was convicted OF The crime OF
murder in the FIRST degree, and sentenced by
the court, in accordance with The verdict, 10
be hung. We believe the day of execution
had been 6xed by Gov. Packer, but he was
afterwards twice resPiled for a specified

granted by Gov. Curtin, at the instance we
