The MONROE DoCTR1NE.-Here
is the story copied from President
Mcnroe's message, delivered De-
cember 2, 1923:
With the existing colonies or
the dependencies of any European
power we have not interfere d, ard
shall not interfere. But with the
governments who have declared
their independence and main
tanned it, and whose independence
we have, on great consideration
and on just principles, acknowl-
edged, we could not view any in
terposition for the purpose of OPP
pressing them, or controlling in
any other manner their destiny by
any European power. inst.,;on Of
er iio.. ii an as manifestation u
an unfriendly disposition towards
the United States.

Here is what the Albany, N. Y,
Argus thinks of Gen. Butler; "In
this late speech before the Massa-
chusetts State Convention Gen.
Butler took the ground that the
South has forfeited its political
rights" When he was in New
Orleans, he. took the ground that
the people in the South had for
feited their silver spoons-and it
was afterwards found to be true.
There is hope, says the New Ha-
ven Register, that the rights mot
being convertible are more likely
to be returned than the silver
ware.

THE WRONG PLACE.-A passen-
ger who was swearing terribly in
the cars, on the Boston and Prov

by a young minister with more
zeal than discretion, who said to
him abruptly:
"My dear sir, do you know
where you are going? You are
going straight to hell"
Gust my Id luck Y replied
the man, looking the minister in
the face with an alarmed air, and

Twenty years ago, in Washing
ton county, New York, before
ready-made shoes came in vogue,
a venerable shoemaker, "Old Pie
nix" was in the habit Of going from
house to house, and there making
up boots and shoes for the families
under his jurisdiction. Among
the rest of his customers he visit
ed the family of one Mr.. Parish,
and shod old and young. One of
the boys was endowed with big
pair of stogy boots, and on the
succeeding Sabbath went to church
and was more occupied with the
boots than the sermon. At the
noon intermission, when good old
DR.. Proudfit came around, as was
his custom, to catechise the young
sters, the boys thoughts were still
downward. The old Doctor COM
ing up to the boy in his turn, in
quired of him:
"John, who made your
"Father found the leather and
Old PheniX did the work" was
the natural but unexpected reply.

The Chicago Times, abiding to
the ship load of New England fe-
males about to sail for the Pacific
Coast as emigrants, gives the anti
slavery howlers the following dig
in the ribs:
"The tears which have been
shed in'the North over the sunder-
ing of negro families is suffi :ient TO
furnish perpetual water-powers, if
collected, for the manufactures of
all Massachusetts,. Necessity, like
a brutal slave owner, has seized
upon several hundred young la
dies of the Bay State, has torn
them from their families. and will
sell them to the highest bidders in
Washington Territory, thousands
of miles away. Who will weep
over this rude violation of the
family circle? No one. Philan-
thropy gazes complacently on the
transaction and says nothing, be-
cause the matter has no-votes. "

Last Of the Disunionists.

All Of the obstacles to perfect
peace would have vanished at the
close of the war; all the party
spirit and sectional feeling in the
country would have disappeared
with the emancipation of the
slaves of the South, but for the
ever-increasing, vindictive and hu-
initiating demands Of the radicals,
led on by Chief Justice Chase,
Wendell Phillips, Thaddeus Ste
vens, Horace Greeley, ard other
able, eloquent and restless men of
the same stamp. Not satisfied
with the sudden and complete en-
franchisement of four millions of
ignorant blacks, VIGOROUSLY infe-
rior in point of native intellect,
and untitled for self-government,
they go a bowshot further, and, at
the risk of embroiling the country
in all the horrors of q San Domin-
90 instruction, demand that these
blacks shall be endowed with the
privilege of tie elective franchise,
and tie power to make laws not
only for themselves, but for their
former masters!
They go on further than this.
They demand that the former
masters of the slaves-all who
were in any wise engaged, or SYM
, pathized with, the rebellion-shall
: be deprived of the privilege of vo.
, ting, and held in condition of
: utter subjugation to military rule.
: while the negroes go ahead, make
laws for them, and keep them
down with muskets in their hands
Still worse and worse, these in
, sane prosecutors of their own race
make these infamous demands fol
the suddenly liberated blacks Of
tie South, willie they deny the
same privilege to the long enfran
chised blacks Of the North! They
thus stand before the world in the
, attitude of deliberate, yindictivt
prosecutors Of their own house
hold! The ignorant blacks of The
South, according to the radicals
are quite good enough to associate
) on terms Of political equality will

kept in condition Of degradation
and inleriority to the high an(
mighty radicals of the North
They seem to have made the dis
; covery, which will be entirely new
) to the whole world, that the white
men of the South are quite infe
rior beings as compared with those
of the North.
The unnatural, unconstitutiona
demands of the Northern extrem
ists-those chartered organizers of
mischief--constitute the only sc
rious obstacles now in the way of
, a complete and speedy restoration
of the Union. But for them, the
ezra of Good Feeling" might a
: once begin. The radicals have
thus got back to the Old landmark.
of political abolitionism where
they started from thirty years ago
, They are now the only disunion
lists, the only nullifers, the only
rebels, left in all this broad land
