A purely selfish interest attaches the

This would amount to six in bed,

"Point, whenever you will to an
election district which you will pro-
nounce morally rotten-given up to
Neutrality-suspicious. voters subsist by
keeping policy Offices, gambling
houses, grog shops and darker dens Of
infamy - and that district will be

HORACE GREELEY,
AL do know that there are several
hundred thousand mulattoes in this
country and we presume NO one has
any serious doubt that the fathers of
at least nine-tenths of them are white
Democrats. And we hold that those
Democrats, if they will have yellow
children, might better than otherwise
treat the mothers respectively as wives
after the laudable pattern of that emil

HORACE GREELEY.
The brain, the heart, the soul of the

For the last thirty years, every
American slave holder on the African
coast, has accounted himself in poll

wants "his trade to move without re-
