ington, under the tutilage Of the "God
and morality party" has become q very
nice pla'c, especially for thieves and
women ofill-fame. The Capital is said
to be lousy, but that is in good keeping
with its politics and morals.
The Mongrel, alias Republican party
of New Jersey, have held a platform
Convention, and swallowed the negro
whole. Senator Frclinghuysen made Il
speech, ifyhich he not only set aside
all history, but all science, and compar-
ed the Irish and Germans with the ne
grocs, to the great disparagement of
the former. He said that all savage
Africa wanted, was an opportunity and
education. Well, five thousand years
ago, the people of Egypt were trying
to educate and civilize them. Two
thousand three hundred years ago, the
Carthagenians were trying to do the
same thing. Then the Romans tried,
and all Asia, and al! Europe have been
working at the same business time with
out limit, but with no more effect than
if the same attention had been bestow-
ed upon the chimpanzees Of Africa.
Aaron Sweat, o cuAed pusson, of the
Cheraw District, S. c., has announced
himself as q candidate for Congress. Ii
the question is between him and some
Mongrel white sneak, by all means let
the negro go, we say. A few negroes
or chimpanzees would NOT hurt the dig
nifty of this Congress, and might, per-
haps, drive the few decent white men,
who are members, home, where they
should have stayed, instead Of consent
ing to help, by their presence, the Mon
grel farce.
The editor of the Chicago RepuM-
can, describing atiock Of mulattoes he
recently saw at q Mongrel Convention,
says-"Their features are classic, theil
eyes eloquent, their forms faultless."-
How did they smell? We do not Won
der at the reports we often have of the
wives and daughters of Abolitionists
running off with negroes. Their mag
nations are wrought up by these char
ming descriptions of negroes, that it is
no marvel they should be tempcd to sec
if Ga rose by another name will smell as
sweet"

on the Mongrel ticket. How does De-
lany know whether they do Dr. not
We think Delany is a bogas Niger, hir
ed by the cunning Mongrels to say
what he does. The real negroes dc
want the Vice-P Presidency, and they
ought to have it. Shall not those who
carry ten States have Il candidate fol
the Vice residcncy? O%fcourse they
must.
A southern paperpraises the consist
ency of Thad. Stevens for declaring, as
he did, in q recent conversation, that
"the Constitution does not enter into
the question of the war;" Yes, old
Thad. has been all the time as consist
ent as the devil in his wickedness. Wher
the Abolitionists first started the war
he replied to some Mongrel drivillcr on
the floor of Congress, who was trying
to make out some plausible lie abou'
the constitutionality of their doings
Indignantly exclaiming, 81 am tired o
hearing this. stuff about the Constitu
ton, for l am not going to stullify my
self by claiming thai what we are doing
is constitutions" With all the ole
sinners crimes, he is by no means the
greatest liar of his party.
