THE conduct of colored voters wherever

hand they have either by vote or .resolu-
ton gone squarely against the counsel
that would separate them from the party
by whom their freedom was won, thelr
rights conceded and established, and from
whom they have everything to expect. Mr.
Sumner has exchanged the commentators
and trust Of the colored people for the
praises of their late masters. This justilies
the praise he long since gave them tol
knowing and sticking to their friends bu
it is at great price to those who, building
on such merit, sought to misuse it. ANA.

THERE are some credulous Republicans
who have made themselves blieve that II
Mr.. Greeley is elected he would be wholly
independent Of the bad and malignant I'M
luences of that .hopelessly besottedparty to
whose votes he will principally owe his
election Such position is not sustained
by sound reasoning, and it is contrary TO
all experience. We well remember certain
bargains entered into by the friends of Mr..
Lincoln at the Chicago convention without
his knowledge. Against his own convictions,
and against the overwhelming sentiment OF
the party, Mr.. Lincoln gave to Simon
Cameron and to Caleb Smith, of Indiana,
places in his cabinet which they were
wholly unfit for and were compelled to
vacIte. as, ri.
Its absurd to suppose that Greeley will
do any! better, he will be a Democratic
President to all intents and purposes.
