AN ANGLO-sAXON MAoMORROUGH.
New YORK, October II, 1867


The Norman conquest of England and the Norman
invasion of Ireland had certain features of resemblance
whsanding their wide dssimarity in results Both
undertaken under the auspices and encouragement of the
temporal power and both preceded by the detection of
native traitor The world has been fully informed of the
treachery the Irish Marlborough while that ofhe English
Tostg has been allowed to rest quietly in the shade but
their exploits much alike that it might be difficult
decide to which of them should be assigned the palm of
nfamy. The Anglo-Saxon traitor was a brother to King
Harold who had been expelled from Northmbra for his
vices and who fastened to Normandy to urge the foreigner
to the invasion of his country. He boosted in the of
Duke William that he had more power in England than his
brother the king whom he stigmatzed a perurer; and
promised the possession of the country whomsoever would
unite with him in making its conquest This just what
Marlborough promised to Henry H. whom he followed to
Normandy on learning in ngand that the king absent

venturer any men, but he gave him vessels and with
these the Saxon sailed to the Baltic solicit other aid and

and good in modern American history among all these
lovers of liberty in the northern part of England,
throughout the length and breadth of Ireland and in
other portions Of Europe The defenders of the prn
ciples for which Lincoln lived and died appreciate their
acts, and honor them accordingly But it is in this
as it is IN every otherthe exception strengthens
the rule. The enemies Of America in Europe not
the working men and working women there Far from
it. They all found prime movers at least in the
ranks of idle and women-the do-nothings of
society-the ploters and schemers of -goten power
the toades of monarchy and tools of despotism It is
to this pestferous class, and their kindred oppressors
spawned and fed by the American ogarchy of slavery
that we owe the attempt to destroy Union. They
are the cause and the sole cause of late They
and they alone are the shedders of the innocent blood
that enriches the American SOIL They were the nst-
gators to the infamous rebellion of the shareholders
They supplied it all the aid and comfort in their power
to bestow. They rejoiced in all our defeats They
sorrowed at all victories. They hoped fondy and
continuously that our national war debt would swamp
our national finances destroy the character of
rency and plunge into reputation and ruin. They
joined and now joining with the present President
against the sound and constitutional for the
reconstruction of the Southern States and their safe
admission into the Union proposed and made lawful by
the national Congress- The most blatant supporters of
Mr. johnson at this moment are the enemies of America
and of republican institutions in Europe They the
vile panderers to arbitrary power who furnishing
the money from European Golfers to destroy American
liberty. They the orginators of the Free Trade
and other secret leagues, whose wepad emissaries
covering the land like the locuss of Egypt penetrating
to the arena of our baotbox and corruptng by every
in their power, the purity of the American elect
i've franchise It is they who making what they
can of every element among that will destroy
etary confidence and debauch the morals of people
Their motto, like that of their Infamous progenitors
always was, is now, and ever will be" Divide and
Conquer!' But they found out at last, and there
fore are poweress Like the traitors at the South at
Washington and elsewhere, they weighed in the
balance and found wanting. You have tried it on
gentlemen but you cannot do it. ut is too late"

TWO SUNDAYS.

A baby, alone, in a lowly door,
Which climbing woodbine made still lower.
Sat playing with lilies in the sun.
The loud church bells had just begun:
The kitten pounced in the sparkling grass,
Az stealthy spiders that tried to pass
The big dog kept threatening eye
On me, as fingered, walking by.
The lilies grew high, and she reached up,
On tiny tp-toes to each gold cup;
And laughed aloud, and talked and clapped
Her small brown hands, as the tough stems
snapped,
And flowers fell till the broad hearthstone
Was covered, and only the topmost one
OF the lilies left. In sobered glee
She said to herself, "That's older than me 70
Two strong men, through the lowly door,
With uneven steps the baby bore;
They had set the bier on the lily bed:
The lily she left was crushed and dead,
The slow, sad bells had just begun;
The kitten orouched, afraid, in the sun:
And the poor watchdog, in bewildered pain
Took no notice of me as joined the train.

'Talk of the nectar that flowed for Celestals,
Richer in headaches it was than in hilarity
Well for us animals-frequently bestials-
Hebe destroyed the receipt, as a charity
Once could empty my glass with the best of

Somehow my system has suffered a shock o.

Now shun spirits, wine, beer, and the rest of

Fill me-then fill me a bumper of chocolate!
Once drank lOgwood and quassia and turpen-

Liquors with coculus, aloes, and gentian in;
Sure, it's no wonder my path became serpen-

minds TO their utility or beauty. When they
wish to do the handsome thing by q stranger
they will scrape the skulls of some of their best
ancestors and mix the scrapings with the food

the blood OF their ancestors will pass into the
stranger, thereby ennobling him and causing
him to do the right thing by his entertainer

misery of European monarChs who were

would flock about him and say to each other,

considered him spirit, and thought he came

asked to see the king, they always replied that
the king could not be seen till three days.
Slavery exists among them, but they do not
make slaves of any of their own tribe. When

of cultivation and improvement under the
supervision OF superior races, but when left to
themselves they would relapse into barbarsm.

EFFECTS OF THE REPEAL OF THE REcIpRooITY
TREATY.-The repeal of the Reciprocity treaty
between the United States and Canada, it is
reported, has caused an increased trade be-
tween Nova Scotia and Canada. Formerly,
Nova Scotia received about 300, 900 barrels of
four per annum from the United States, and
6OOO to 1000 from Canada. Now the receipts
are reversed, and about 1000 barrels are taken
from the United States and 300 600 from
Canada.
