defined to be "an absolute despOtism,
tempered and modified by assassina-
ton" and Dickinson and others claim
that the President has the power of the
Gar without any thing about the mod
ificatiOn. Is It not surprising that the
modification" has not been supplied

not. But let none doubt the 'tmOdih-
cation" may be lost sight of aud may
be enforced unless the tyrants and
usurpers of the country are soon put
down or cease their iniquities. They
are known and understood, and whether
they are to be found in the low kuaves
and blackguards that dare to show their
heads on our street corners, and in some
of our hotels, or are 70
be found in the halls of Congress, or in
the Executive departments Of the Fed

tsmarked and doomed" Let them be-
ware, The modification
may be enforced. SIC SEMPER TYRAN-

further prosecution would be a still
greater wrong.
TFrom the same, March 25. 1885,
The war, under its present misman-
agement, is so obnoxious that men will
no longer volunteer in the service, and
II has become a "nflitarv necessitv.''
we are told to hunt up freemen at their
homes and firesides, and load them
with chains, and "with iron bracelets

But in every species of fraud and cor
ruption, in al manner of deceit, treach-
cry downright WiclSedness, villainy
and utter dePravity, the party at pres
ent in power is without a parallel
Ever since its inception up to the pres
cut time, the list of its crimes has been
AeIZLQGulH&
ing crime has been more dark and dam
nable than the one before. Its appetite
for wiclxedness has only. grown keener
with indulgence, and all the time, as if
is unsatisfied wit its deViIish work, 1t
has seemed in travail to bring forth"

trade, prostrated business, ruined COM

mechanics out of employment, depre-
Gated the price of produce, demOralized
society, and brought utter ruin upon
the nation and people.

This war, at the best; is a malignant
/ partisan strife, carried on for the sole
benefit of the contractors and thieves
/ who control the Abolition organization,
/ and sustained for the purpose of keep
