LETTER FROM HON. L. P. POLAND,
The Middlcbury Register publishes the
following letter, by request; and says
that it "uever doubted the political sound
ness Of Mr. Poland" but its preference
for Mr.. Morrill,, has ever been the result
of a conviction that the State and coun-
try could not at this time we'll dispense
with his services"
Neither can the State and country we'll
dispense with the services of Mr. Poland.
Then why don't Mr.. Morrill's friends ad-
wise him to remain in the House, place
for which he is better adapted, and allow
Mr.. Poland to remain in the Senate

Mr. salisbury, of Delaware, with that
thirst for knowledge for which he has always
been distinguished enquired last week, in
the Senate, il anybody knew what authority
there was for calling negroes ''coloredn pco-
pie, The authority is usage, and there is
none better. The term is euphcmism into
which people have been gradually drifting
in order to avoid the tinge of contemptuous-
ness which the term "niggcr" has gradually
communicated To that in itself perfectly
proper term, negro. The process by which
the change has been effected is one which
may be witnessed in the case OF many other
terms How few people live in houses; how
many reside in "resdcnccs" or "man-
siOns " How few schools there arc left: how
many academies" and institutes, and
establishments. The race of women is
nearly extinct, while "ladies" swarm all over
the land. Such a thing as fowl is now
hardly ever seen on dinncr-table; the oldest
cock that is ever served up is sure TO be a
chicken" Mutton, too, is becoming scar
GER 'lamb' more plentiful There has not
been for many day such thing in the
United Statesasa a storekeeper or shopkecper;
the smallest pedlar is now n "merchant -
We hardly ever hear of anybody in the
newspapers, not day laborer, who does not
move in the very best society" and who
docs not boast "fine talents and dignilied
manners" Nobody now delivers speech
ran address ON any set occasion; he delivers
an ''oration.' The President is fast ceasing
to be President, having been promoted 10 the
office of "our Chief Magistrate. " Thereare
even very few men of moderate attainments;
most men who lay claim 10 anything beyond
a common school education, and are not
actually engaged in business, are spoken of
as 'lipe scholars, - and If they at the same
time do not spit or chew, and abstain from
morning drinks, -" they become accom-
plished gentlemen. If anybody advocates
negro suffrage, he takes his stand on the
platform of the brotherhood of man. Stew
ed oysters and chicken salad arc neither a
supper nor lunch, but an elegant COLA
ton. Sermons are nearly all--Or at least
all that are considered worth speaking Of
powerful discoursesN Even wives are
gradually disappearing; men write themselves
down in the hotel books as being accom-
panied by their "adies, whatever that may
mean. In most parts of the West even
academies and Constitutes" bid fair to
become extinct, their places being taken by
universities. No girl now ever leaves
school; She graduates. Inns and taverns
have disappeared long ago; we find nothing
hui "hotels" in all direction There are
even signs that bar-poms will soon be super
scdcd by samplc-rooms" The process has
already begun in New York People do not
teach things now; they are "protessorsN OF
them. Corn-doctors are "chiropodisis. -
BARRIERS are not TO be found in any Of the
lalge cities, while "hair-dressers' abound

arc becoming somewhat rare. They arc
