The Portland Dailv Press has the largest
regular circulation of any daily paper in
the city.
The Baseness of Political Charlatans.
Next to downright treason there is nothing
more execrable in political leaders and wire
pullers, than attempts to array one class of
citizens against another in the same communi
ty ; the poor against the rich, for example, or
the ignorant against those who have been fa
vored with better educational advantages.
Those who appeal to the blind prejudices of a
class, and particularly the prejudices of those
whose means of becoming acquainted with our
institutions have been limited,—who have hut
recently found an asylum from poverty and
oppression on our soil,—with a view to array
• them against our native citizens, cannot be
too severely denounced. Such men would ex
cite negroes to insurrection and murder on a
Southern plantation, if by so doing they could
promote their nefarious schemes. They are
worse than the burglar, the midnight assassin
or the incendiary, and sink as far below these
in manliness as does the vile back-biter and
slanderer below the man who mests you face
to face in open day-light.and draws a revolver
upon you. We have been led into this train
of remark by reading in that pattern paper,the
Argus, the following:
Charitt.—That “Charity,” which the Sa
vior set down as the cardinal virtue, seems to
he counted out from the list by at least one
prominent clergyman. On the last Sabbath
in New York, the Rev. Mr. Frothingham,
(Unitarian,) preached against such practical
charity as giving to the poor—which the New
Testament says is lending to the Lord. The
Express says that the reverend aristocrat de
clared that the Irish laborers in New York
ought to bow down to the abolitionists whet>
kiss their feet! When a clergyman can begin
a sermon by preaching against relieving the
necessities of his fellow men. according to the
precepts and teachings of Christ, this man
worship, which is against a direct command of
God, is bat the natural sequence of those who
begin with abolitionism and end in infidelity.
When, too. we see tile Irish kissing the leet of
the abolitionists, as recommended by Mr.
Frothingham. we shall expect to seethe world
considerably more mad than it is.
Rev. Mr. Frothingham is a geutleman of es
tablished reputation, which can no more be in
jured by such vile sheets ns the Argus and
Express, than could the reputation of an Ole
erlin or a Howard by the ravings of a London
Ash-woman. A paper that has acquired so un
enviable a reputation that even its own party
leaders have held it up in legislative debate,
and denounced it as a lying oracle, cannot be
very mischievous where it is best known.
But it is the base attempt to cheat and mis
lead our adopted Irish citizens, that is worthy
of special notice in the above. The Argus no
more believes the slander it publishes against
Mr. Frothingham, than it believes its own un
manly insinuations against President Lincoln;
but it will stoop to the miserable business of
exciting a blind Irish prejudice, hoping there
by to gain a few votes. And what is the char
acter of the New York ally of the Argus, in
this despicable business? The New York Ex
press is the organ of the anti-Irisii or know
nothing sentiment of New York. Its editors
staked the last dollar of their political capital
upon the issue made up by the know nothings
against the Irish, and heralded and rejoiced
over the church-burnings and other barbarities
which, not over six years ago, they labored to
excite. Tne two Brookses are covered all
over with what they now call the “slime of ab
olition," as well as the infamy of know noth
ing persecution, which we all know was kin
dled mainly against the Irish; and now they
turn a short corner, and think to cajole the
same Irish, and to harness them to their polit
ical car by inflaming their minds against those
who rebuked the mad spirit which they so re
cently kindled into a flame. The Brookses
will never forgive the Republicans because
with them hostility to negro slavery is more
intense than hostility to Catholicism—because
in their political action they have favored the
enlargement of the African rather than tlieen-'
slavement of the Irishman. And the Argus
of this city descends to the l^v, dirty busi
ness of playing second-fiddle to this brace of
New York worthies, in circulating their vile
venom among the Irish, to excite their preju
dices against the native citizens, even as a few
years since they labored to inflame the hitter
to deeds of wickedness if not blood against the
former.
The Argus and the Secretary of the
Treasury.
Tuesday’s Argus contained several extracts
from New York minors iiitomlnil In (liosirami
Secretary Chase and his management of the
finances of the government. Every one famil
iar with finances knows that there are always
and in all countries alike, two classes of mon
ied men and hankers; Bears, who would depre
ciate every class of security, that they might
speculate in the same at low rates; and the
Bulls, who would tip up the stocks they hold,
to sell out at a profit.
Mr. Secretary Chase came in contact at
once with these two classes in our country;
the wants of the government were to be enor
mous to sustain an army as large as ours, and
to build and equip a new navy. lie had
two methods before him, to rely upon loans,
selling six or seven per cent, stocks at a
great discount, with the specie and the
paper money of state banks for a circulating
medium; or by disposing of U. S. slocks at
fair prices, making up the deficiency by issu
ing government paper in small sums as u cur
rency, and trust to the patriotism of the peo
ple to receive it upon the faith of the U. S. |
government.
This latter course displeased nil those Shy
locks who wanted to gel rich, as Girard and
monied men did in the war of 1812, by buying
U. S. stocks at 7l> to 80 per cent, on the dollar,
and hence this class of men and their brokers
in Xew York are continually harping against
Mr. Chase, because he put his trust in the peo
pie rather than 111 rich men. Tins is a true
explanation of the articles in the New .York
papers, which the Argus likes to copy. '
The address of the people of Manches
ter, England, to President Lincoln, is publish
ed. It commences by expressions of “frater
nal sentiments” toward the President and the
country over which he presides. It also ex
presses admiration for the free states “as a
singularly happy abode for the working mil
lions where industry is honored.” Jt closes
by asking the President to accept the high
admiration of the signers “for his tlrmness in
upholding the proclamation of freedom,” To- j
morrow perhaps we will give it in lull.
The Advertiser claims to be an “inde
pendent republican” paper, and the Argus is a
hunker democratic paper. If any one wishes
to know the exact difference, let him look at
the “special dispatches” from Augusta, to
these two journals, and he w ill find them cast
in the same mould, showing that an “inde
pendent republican” and a “hunker democrat”
are as much alike as two puppies from the ,
same litter.

Letter irom tlie Federal t'npllal.
Washingtox, Jan. 12, 1863.
Of all the years we have numbered as a na
tion. the darkest has ju“t. terminated. The
midnight darkness of Its final hour was hardly
deeper than tlie universal and heart-sickening
gloom that lay upon the American Republic.
The carnage of Fredericksburg, unavailing as
awful, had spread sackcloth upon all the land.
There were some however, there were many,
who did not mourn. While the loyal were
wrung with the double anguish of seeing their
country in deadly peril, and their bravest and
dearest slain, the iebel States echoed with ju
bilations, and tlie godless wretches who re
main in the loyal North only to betray it, who
had so far as in them lay prudently seen to it
that there should bo no friend of theirs in per
il for his country's sake, improved the event
to give to their speeches and editorials a fresh
er and more cheerful vivacity.
Tlie New Year came, calm and bright as a
Sabbath, and with it that for which enlight
ened statesmen and patriots have labored long
and most earnestly; that for which many a
devout soul among tlie eastern hills, and on
tlie western prairies, lias prayed without ceas
ing; that for which many a blasted ami stunt
ed nature, many a poor victim of fiendish cru
elty or brutal lust, has supplicated all through
our years of compromise, and crime, ami shame
even until tlie present, witli “groanings that
cannot lie uttered." As the great Proclama
tion of Freedom swept on wings of lightning
over tlie land, to what true heart did it not
seem like an angel of mercy ami deliverance?
Who could fail to share the confidence of the
President that a measure so humane, sobenef
icent, so just and right, would receive the ap
proval of men and the blessing of God?
If in excepting from its operations some
pui UUII3 Ul UlCICUCi I1UW » • liil/.VMl
over with tile thinnest possible surface of loy
ally, ami oilier portions which make no pre
tense to loyalty, the President failed to meet
our expectations; yet in boldly proposing to
make soldiers of the freedinen, thus permitting
them to aid in the deliverance of their enslaved
brethren, and the maintenance of their own
freedom, as well as the preservation of the
Constitution and the Union, he exceeded our
hopes.
And now, though the clouds lower heavily,
we would lain believe they' are broken, What
the Union cause gained in the great victory
at Murfreesboro, even after deducting what it
iias lost at Vicksburg, seems sufficient cause
for gratulation and thankfulness.
Nearly half tlie time allowed for the session
of Congress lias passed. Tiiat body has thus
far completed but little business, less than we
had hoped to see accomplished, considering
the pressing exigencies in view of which it
acts. The wheels of legislation are now mov
ing busily however, and some of the meas
ures pending have been so far matured tiiat
they will now occupy comparatively little
time.
Questions of finance now occupy largely
the attention of Congres. The hill introduced
into tile House by the Committee of Ways
and Means, and that introduced by Mr. Hoop
er, have heon informally considered by the Fi
nancial Committee of the Senate, which has 1
reported a bill of its own, differing considera
bly from both. It is not eusy to predict pre
cisely what will be finally agreed upon, and
conjectures upon that subject are not of
much consequence; yet it seems certain
tiiat the bank circulation’of the country- must,
to a considerable extent, be superseded by
treasury notes. However this may bear on
individual interests, no other way seems possi
ble to avoid flooding the country with such a
deluge of paper as would involve our finan
ces in universal ruin.
Emancipation in the border slave states is
also receiving much attention. While as ap
pears daily, there are many besides the Bour
bons, who “never learn anything and never
forget anything,” while many cling to the
“abomination of desolation,” as the Hindoo
woman to her pyre, some give evidence tiiat
they discern the signs of the times. The
House hill, giving aid to Missouri for the pur
pose of emancipation was objected to by Mr.
Clement on the ground that the same liberali
ty ought to be extended to the other border
slave states. This, though an objection to the
S|iecifio measure pending, was a virtual en
dorsement of the President’s policy. Senator
\V illey of W est Virginia, also gave notice a
few days since, tiiat lie would introduce a bill
with similar provisions, with reference to the
extinction of slavery in his state. 1 believe j
biivuviuci ow»VG mcu gcuciiuij', lilt* in
stitution is pretty sure to go under, are not !
averse to saving something lrom the general
wreck.
Thtvjubilee that lias been held throughout
the land in view ol' the edict of freedom, ac- ;
counts of which still continue to reach us, can
but cheer arid strengthen the President in his
present policy. Let all good men labor and
pray, that it may be as successful as just, and j
tiiat the first of January may be one of those j
auspicious and thrice glorious eras,
-'‘When the energy sublime
Ot* a century bursts full-blossomed
Ou the thorny stem of time.”

Resolves relating to ATitionnl Affairs.
The following are the resolves offered in the
House on Wednesday last by Mr. Kingsbury
ol this city, and referred to the committee on
Federal Relations:
W iiereas. Slavery is the conceded cause and \
support of the existing gigantic rebellion, and j
from a local, limited, industrial institution, it :
lias been elevated by treason into a vast war
power: It feeds and clothes the armies of the
rebels in the field, and their families at home; it i
builds their military roads, digs their military
iutreuchments, erects their forts, navigates their |
piratical craft, clears the highways for their
forces, drags their artillery and ammunition as
human beasts of burden, and throws into the
active service of the rebellion three millions of
unwilling victims;—therefore,
Resolved, That we hail with profound satis
faction the Proclamation of K’mancipation issued
by the President of the United States on the first
day ot January, A. It. 18ts(, as a measure right
in itself, justified by military necessity and the
laws of war, and clearly within the constitution
al power ut the President as Uommander-in
t hief; ami that it will inaugurate a new and
glorious ejKieli in the history of the nation and
ot Popular Freedom, and strike a final and fatal
blow at the life of the rebellion.
Resolved, That we regard the plan of com
pensated emancipation, proposed to the loyal
slave States by the President, as eminently wise
and just, and that if accepted, it will remove the
chief source of strife in the nation and elevate
and dignify labor.
Resolecd, That as the rebellion originated in
the interests of slavery, it is hut equitable that
slavery should aid in its suppression; and that,
therefore, the introduction of southern negroes
into the military service of the nation, so far ns
they can he made effective, we regard as expe
dient and just.
Resolved, That the Government should listen
to no suggestion of compromise with rebels in
arms against the unity and life of the republic;
• hat all adjustments to traitors in rebellion
Would be » premium to treason; and that the
w ar shall Is* closed only when the last rebel shall
have unconditionally surrendered, and the flag
ol the Union, with its thirty-five stars undimned
upon its folds, floats unmolested and reverenced
over every city and town and village in the land.

Every one that reads, every one that amiglcs !
in society, is constantly meeting with allusions
to subjects on which he Heeds and desires further
information. In conversation, in trade, in pro- 1
fessioual life, on the farm, in the family, prac- I
tical questions are continually arising, which no
man, well read or not, can always satisfactorily
answer. If facilities for reference are at hand,
they are consulted, and not only is the curiosity
gratitied, and the stock of knowledge increased,
i hut perhaps information is gained and ideas are
suggested that will directly contribute to the j
busiuess success of the party* concerned.
But how are these facilities tor reference to be |
had? How are the millions to procure a library? :
How are they to obtain the means of informing ^
imiuwi.CT vii p’uii in which iney are in
terested; or satisfying themselves with respect
to persons anil places, questions of art, science,
religion aud politics, literature and philosophy, l
agriculture, commerce and manufactures? How |
can the working-man hope to bring within his '
reach the whole circle of sciences, and every
point of human knowledge as developed up to
the present moment? We answer, the way is
easy ; by laying by a small sum from his weekly
earnings, and subscribing to the New American
Cyclopaedia.
PLAIT OF TIIE Cy7LOI*JEDIA.
The New American Cyclopaedia presents a I
panoramic view of all human knowledge, as it ;
exists at the present moment. It embraces and
popularizes every subject that can be thought of j
In its successive volumes is contained an inex
haustible fund of accurate and practical iuform

cluding Mechanics, Mathematics, Astronomy,
Philosophy, Chemistry, and Physiology; on
Agriculture, Commerce, and Manufactures; on
Law, Medicine, and Theology; on Biography ;

DISTING 171 SHI NO EXCELLENCIES.
While we prefer that the work should speak
for itself, and that others should herald its ex- I
cellencies, we cannot refrain from calliug atten- j
tion to the following points in which we take an
honest pride in believing that the New Ameri
can Cyclopedia surpasses all others:
In Accuracy and Freshness of Informa
tion.—The value of a work of this kind is ex
actly proportioned to its correctness. it must
preclude the necessity of having other books.—
its decision must be final. It must be an ulti
matum of reference or it is good for nothing.—
In this respect ice challenge the most searching
examination qf the Cyclopaedia.. It will be
found in all its departments to embody the re
sults of the most recent research at home aud
abroad. The latest authorities on every topic
have been consulted, and the information is
brought down to the very day of printing.
In Cheapness.—Our Cyclopedia has been
universally pronounced a miracle of cheapness.
M e determined at the outset to enlarge its
snliere of usefulness, and make it enitihatiimllv
u Imok for the people, by putting it at the low
est possible price. A reference to the terms will |
show that it is within the reach of everybody.— I
Those who so desire it may.take it in weekly or
monthly parts at a trifling cost, which, ns a re
cent reviewer suggests, a little extra economy
in cigars will enable them to meet.

boon quite deaf. I have spent hundreds of dollars,
without receiving any benefit whatever. Last Sat

for his great deliverance, I heartily commend her
mode of treatment to all who suffer as I have done.*'
