"Disgusting Eyotism :"

FoRXEY said, editorially, in the Chronicl,
yesterday, that the Presidents speech to the
colored people contained disgusting ego
tism." In the same paper FoRNEY gives hi,
colorcd brethren and the Senatorial speeches
at the cOlored mass meeting on the outside
of his paper in small, close type, and devotes
six columns and half of loaded large type
on the inside to a milk.and-water speech de
livcred in Philadelphia by JONI W. FoRNEY
to the exclusion of the news of the day, which
his subscribers pay for. If this is not dis
gushing egotism" what is it This is a spcci
men of the "D. DIS" Qudck-ery.

ganiLng the resistance to dsunion. Unless two
events, which are now mentioned, should concur
hereafter, could not expect to be able to assume
the proposed duty at time SO early as May OF
June. First, my returning health must become
more distinctly established; second official duties
must become less exaoting. n present, am pre-.
vented, therefore, from making promise which
depends SO materially upon the future for Its reali.
ration.
Believe me to be, gentlemen, your very obedisnt

The National; Debt.

An excellent point was made In Pres
dent JoHNsoN's speech in New York the
other day by reference to the cendi-
ton of the national finances. After
stating that the public debt amounted
tothree orperhaps four thousand millions
of dollars, he asked:
Will you tell me how you are to seCnie
il, how the ultimate payment of the
principal and interest of this sum is to
be secured? Isit by having this govern
ment disrupted? (Mr. Stewart aud 9th

the Southern brethren have reaped in
putting their capital into slavery
The capitalists of the nation and those

should heed tue warming which the
President gives. The continuance of
the radical party in power and the sue

increase the burdens Of the people and
diminish their ability to pay. 1t viii

standing army to keep the unrepresented

tion of the national debt.
