It is amusing to see the anxiety
manifested by the self styled Democ

negro question, especially their trepi

give themselves no concern. The Cre

not be done. The doom of Slavery
dates from the inauguration of the re

Whenever tliey cease their efforts to
retard the progregg and defeat the
success of our arms. Their example,
their speeches, their newspaper arti

clandestine co-o(tcratious with the en

a year, and now they come forward
with a platform embracing two pro-

would be supreme folly, and the latter
is impossible. The truth is that the
