ENDORSED AT THE BALLOT BOX.
Perhaps the shock of Browns treason
would have been less felt had 1t not received
quasi endorsement by the result of the
State elections held while the old freebooter
was undergoing trial, and when his lawless
deeds were the theme of every tongue.
Friends of the Union were sangulne the
Northern masses would, to use an expressive
phrase sit down upon" the Abolition
agitators, at the ballot box, and by this taclt
disavowal stop the mouths of the Southern
hot-heads who, it was believed, were magni-
fying the importance of the Raid. But the
returns told a different tale. The Black
Republicans swept every State, not except
ing the Democratic strOnghOlds. New ork,
and NewJersey though in the latter State
by a coalition with other parties. Thus the
sectional division was complete, the Aboll-
tionists, or their a~filiants, holding every
Northern State, and having within half a
dozen votes of a majority in Congress. Nat
urally his event had great significance tor
the South. Were the two sections contend
ing merely for political place and power
there could be no ground tor alarm but the
transfer of the entire machinery OF govern
ment, the army, the navy, the arsenals, and
forts, to a great sectional Org0ntzattOn whose
most honored opponents, and chosen leaders
derided the restraints of the constitution,
deslarlng their adherence to an Higher
Law" policy in dealing with the slavery
question Il. e. the law of their own desires),
was quite a different matter. 1t was dis
arming the weaker men. standing on the de-
~fensive, and begging to be let alone, to give
his weapons to a quarelsome giant, twice his
size who openly threatened to use them
against him for his robbery and cripplement
SO long as the anti-slavery agitation was
merely an ebulltion of philanthropy, or sickly
sentlmentallty, by a mere .JacttOn, It's raw
ings and threats could be disregarded with
impunity but when the faction grew into a
great political organization, a great sectional
coalition of all elements hostile to the South,
IN fact owing its strength and growth to this
very hostility, and its wel[detined purposes
Of aggression, surely the time was come to
prepare for self protection. The antics of a
demented child may be tolerated however
annoying and threatening, but when the
youth becomes a man, OF mOnStrous stature,
armed and furious, it would be folly to longer
disregard his trenzied schemes of assault.
The elections of 1856 demonstrated that the
Abolition faction had become a formidable
party; the South-hating child had grown to
gigantic strength, activity and virulence.
Its growth during the ensuing four years
exceeded anything known in American poll
tics. Capturing State after State, it OBJ
tanned unlimited power from Maine to Cali
fornla, and, as all men might see, was about
to seize the General Government.

The late editor of the Raleigh Nurx,
before leaving the editorial tripod, fired
parting shot at editorial "modesty," in
r%eprinting press notices. 1t has been the
custom of the press for generations to MAKE
some acknowledgment of such cOurtesIes
and the most modest method is thought to
be the collection Of them IN a column, re-
produced as "press notices. This rule
prevails with the majority of papers, from
