had the good fortune to obtain sections,

the Crescent City, the furni

beds were very comfortable; the ice held
out abundantly, and the fare at the various
eating places was fair enough for such as
had an APPETITE. Early on Monday morning
we reached Louisville, and there took the

NEW BOOKS.

LIFE AND LETTERS, LECTURES AND AD
DRESSES OF REV. +. w. ROBERTSON.
| We noticed recently that Messrs. Harper
g. Brothers had issued new edition OF
Robertson's sermons. This volume has
been followed by second edition of the
Life and Letters, Lectures and Addresses,
of this celebrated English divine. The
work makes $40 pages of closely printed IL
NO., and presents the leading events and
features of interest in the life of an earnest,
| learned, pious, Cody man-one who never
wearied in the work of doing good to his fell
low creatures. Mr.. Robertson was pastor Of
Brighton Church, England, from 1947 to
1853, and died from prostration caused by
excessive mental and physical labors, at the
age of thirtyseven. His sermons, letters,
addresses, and the sketch of his life as pre-
sented by Rev Stopford A. Brooke, are in
structive and interesting reading, and will
be priced by the old and young, the theo-
logical student and the student of meta
physics.
Both volumes are for sale by George
Ellis, at No. Old Levee, opposite the Post
Office.

Mrs Oliphant is one of the most enter

pacity for depicting scenes from real
life. She avoids the sensational style of
some modern female novelists, and pleases
by her charming pictures and natural, but
graceful and easy, sentences.

The following extract from the Philadel-
phia Age shows the feeling of the Penn
sylvania Democracy on the adoption of
the Fifteenth Amendment. The feemen
of this great State, if they had not been
blinded by prejudice, would have known
that every blow they struck for the sub
jugation of their Southern brethren was a
blow, too, for their own enslavement.
But here is what the Pennsylvania De-
mocracy are going to do now:
"The Pennsylvania Democracy are
speaking upon the white mans question.
They are determined to make this the is
sue of the coming contest. On the 9TH
inst. the Democratic Convention of Fa-
cite county assembled at UnIontown, and
after nominating a good ticket, commenced
a series of outspoken resolutions, by de-
claring that the fraudulent and forcible
adoption of the Fifteenth Amendment was
a fragrant outrage upon the rights of the
States, and an intentional insult to the
white race. The same convention also
urged the forming of white mems clubs
for the purpose Of restoring the power OF
this government to the keeping of white
men, and urged all men who prefer the
rule Of white men to that of negroes to
unite with the Democracy in an effort to
p%erpetuate the institutions of our country
in the hands of the white race. This is
the path in which the Democratic party in
the old keystone State will travel in the
future. Negro suffrage was forced upon
the white men of this State by fraudulent
means. They were not allowed to have q
voice in the matter. A Legislature was
elected upon a far different issue, and then
the majority OF hat body ratified the ne.
gro amendment. Had the question of ne
gro suffrage been submitted to the white
men Of Pennsylvania, then it would have
been defeated by a large majority, and the
! same result would follow an election to,
day. The Radicals are well aware of the
fact, and hende the cheat and swindle-
But 1t is not too late to administer an an,
tidote for the poison; and that the De.
mocracy intend to do. White men viii
never allow Pennsylvania to be ruled anC
ruined by negroes"

THE DEMOCRAT AND WORKING
MEN.

This Negro, Chinese matter is rapidly
becoming q home question to every work
ing man of the Caucasian race in this
country. In North Adams, Massachu-
sets, Chinese are introduced as workmen
in a large shoe factory, and white people
are turned out to starve. These radical
leaders desire slaves for themselves-not
freemen. unbribed, unbought. VIII u
neiglbors inform the mechanics and work
ingmen Of Canton that Negroes and Chi
nese are better than they are tor serving
the bondholding and capitalist lords2-
Stark Co. Democrat.
We need hardly inform the working
men of Canton anything about it. In our
somewhat extensive acquaintance with
them we do not now think of n who is
in the least danger of becoming a slave to
the "~bondholding and capitalist lords"
There are very few who are not well
posted in regard to the Democrats views
on slavery-the Democrat which believes
slavery to be q very excellent thing, and
that its victims should have no wages
whatever, and that they should be sold
like horses and cattle. But it makes all
the difference in the world whethe" the
so-called slaves of the Democrat belong
to Democrats or Republicans. The title
of the former is defended from the Bible,
but a radical is to be deprived of the ser
vices ever of a low-priced rat-eater. This
Is unfair, to say the least.
And, by the way, who are the men that
the Democrats fond of calling bondhold-
ing and capitalist iords2 Have they not
themselves been, without exception, work
ingmen2 Are not the interests of these
employers and Of the workingmen identi-
cal? Is it not the chief glory of this Re
publican government that every industri-
Gus workIngman may safely hope to be-
come himself n day a proprietor and an
employer of workingmen2 Far distant,
we say, be the day when these two classes,
the workingmen and the employers of
Canton, shall be arrayed against each
other when industry shall be paralyzed,
and the community stricken with the pal
sy of idleness and poverty, as it ven now
is IN other localities where heed has been
given to the sophisms of such demagogues,
disorganizers and false prophets as the ed
itor of the DemOcrdL-RG. and Rep,

"OUR stupid, ignorant President, 1--WE
quote the Washington correspondent of
the Cincinnati Commercial Radical is
said to feel sorely grieved over the defeat
of his San Domingo job. He had really
set his heart upon it. He only expended
over II hundred and fifty thousand dol
lars of the peoples money in the further
ance of his pet measure; and having hired
himself out as a stool pigeon to the pres
ent ruler of San Domingo, he has sense
enough to begin to appreciate that IN the
result he has won all the shame but none
of the glory that was likely to attend his
aston. He has furnished the world with
a most painful and ludicrous exhibition of
his executive weakness and his want of
capacity as 4 statesman. When he wrote
to President Johnson that he was igno-
rant of diplomatic questions, he only dis
closed what he has since shown to be a
legitimate fact.
