AS for ourselves, we acknowledge that we
have very decided views as TO how, In our
Judgment, the political work of this year is to
be Carried out. Nor is it at all unlikely that
other Journalists have equally decided views.
We deem it better for each Journalist to be left
perfectly free to carry on the fight in his own
way. We regard that journalism best which
ia most free and less fettered. We desire for
ourselves to be at liberty to strike here and
there, and wherever we find loose Joint In

presented, let an Impartial public decide tne
matter. TO that arbitrament let honest diff.
ferences be referred, and may the right and
the victorious prevail.

bore q blank appearance, as if surprised to see
that the colored men had their eyes open, and
were determined hereafter ito share and share

hams and nuimess; lie had found sharp Southern
ers too, and some colored men whom lie believed
could make two hams OF the same piece of wood,
and OF which a regular Yankee could only make
one. After this, he praised the colored men,
praised Nashs sharpness especially, and then
succeeded in getting the Senate to resume the
