Alas ! how full of vanity aro bbort-siclit- how full of vanity cd mortals ! Yes, the working elates have felt it as none others, for lull a million of them havo perished by the bullet, by sickness, or arc now hobbling dowu life's weary toad, a burden to themselves aud an expenso to the public. Why has all this misery been , , ..r. , ., UTOUglll upon US 1 110 aru IIIC guilty " partlOS T . . . ,, ., , . , htnppetl 01 all collateral 1SSUCS, the , , , ., , real, naked question is thus gummed up in thu address : Thc Abulitiou idea in volved a demand for tbe political equality of all men, of whatever raca or color. The Chicago platform coitrued the Dtclara tion of Independence to mean that negroes wen equally included with white men in its terms, and that the Constitution of the United States embraced them within thu ranks of citizenship. The party that adopt ed this idea as its fundamental basis, had othpr nnd minor principles, which deluded many with tho notion that it only desired to restrict negro servitude to ccrtain local ities, but its real meaning was tho abso lute equality of all races and colors iu our government, suoh as iMexioo, Ucutral Amorioa and other humblu-dowu mongrel lisms have adopted. Hence wo see that, despite tho ''conservative" olemcnt in the prcsont party in power, it has constantly and invariably driftod to tho prootioal re alizatton of these monstrous doctrines. In proof of this witness the arming ef tho negroes of placing thcra upon an equality with white soldiers in pay anil pensions and of its reception of a negro embassador from tlio burlosqito government of llayti, and of its constant efforts to forco tlio ne gro upon the laboring classes in thoir work, as their social equal. It ia thus evident that, under the prcsont party, the equality of whites and negroes as citizens, in tlio samo government, will be carried out. Was this the government that our fathers formed I Did they intond to equalize whites with negroes I If thoy did, thon tlio Abolition-Republican party is truo to tlio Constitution. If they did not, then thoy arc traitors to it. This is plain talk, but there is no other horn to the dilemma By this party, and upon a platform which contained the fundamental idea of Abolitionism, tlio equality of all men, meaning negroes as well as whites, Abra ham Lincoln was circled. The South .of , course, objected to a President elected as I their enemy, the enemy of ttio domestic ' i i ana ooiai oxisicnee as a people. They had no objection to tho Union for the Union had been mainly formed by Southern men but they did object to it perversion to its overthrow to its being undermined by Abolitionism, and hence they demand that this party, coming into power with all the curses towards tho Union on record against them, would give some guarantee that thoy would preserve the Union ! Quotations from speeches and pens of the most prominent men of the South go ing to show that they were most ardently attached to tho Union, might bo indoufi- nitcly multiplied. Upou tho refusal of ! Mr" LiU00ln aud h'3 party t0 sUut by lha Union, the Southern States confetlerated tosotur for ,,,uiual rcc,io:,j "? thr ' UP" "'c very men who had refused to j 'vc guarantees to preserve tho Union, raisod the cry of a "war for tho Union.'' .

Tho steps taken towards establishing a aystem of false and unjust reprcscntauon in the Government 0 the United States, should bo now carefully considered. In tho first place, lot us considor what ( has taken place in regard to tho State of Virginia. In 1800. Virninia had a nonu- uu (incluaing slavc3)) of 1,500,318 ; ' Pennsylvania a population of 2,000,215 ; New York a population of 3,880,035. 0f Virginia ; an improvised Legislature of o i r a oenatc oi tuu uuucu oiiivuM, uuu rescntatives from the (tame territory Were tbcrtt0f) and Senators therefrom were ad- j d - h u ; d StatGS Senatc. j , H very small part of tho old State, not in eluded within the boundaries of the new one, remained within our military lines, to b as woU a3 lbc ow stat0 represented ' ' , . ,., . liy two members in the Senate, lhus, un dcr Kepublican manipulation, ono third of the ancient State of Virginia has lour votes in the Senate of the United States, and . may ncutralizo the votes of both New York it, i ,i . i rni i , and Pennsylvania in that body. Iho '-An . c'lODt Dominion," With a llOpulalion a little exceeding one half that of Pennsylvania, ia represented by four Senators in tho Con . gru,s of thc Unitea ytatcS) anj by tw0 in iho Confederate Congress at Richmond I ' Pennsylvania, with her three millions of pUOple, remains true to the Union, and re i ,aing bor former yot8 in tbe SeDat0 Vir ginia turns traitor, tends two thirds of her j population under the Confederate flag,aud j forthwith lias her representation doubled ju the Senate of the United States, and ;tha o in dcfonoc of a conslituliol)al . . .. , , provision forbidding it, and avoided only j upon a strained construction or implica' tion totally at variance With tbe plain tact I Against plaiu truth of thc case, and with' out necessity, it was assumed that the Leg- 0 islaturo of a fragment of thc Slate rcpre seated the whole for thc purpose of assent ing to its division and the erection there from of a new member of the Pedoral Union. We pass from this case to speak of mat ter moro recent, A Stato government has been set up in Louisiana, under the super visiou of a major general of tho United States Army, which although it holds the allegiance of but part of tho population, wo ruppose is to havo tho firmer repre sentation of that State in Congress ; and in Tcuucssce and Arkansas there have beeu proceedings of a similar description. Tho indications are clear and full, that in cases and in others of similar character which may follow them, tho Prcsideut of thc United Slates, through his officers of thc army in command in the States to be represented, dictates and will dictate and control tho wholo proceeding for renewed representation, and upon principles most unequal, unjust aud odious. A recent attempt to set up one of these bogus States in Florida, uuder apresidcu tial agent, must bo frosh in tho recollec- tion of the country, as must also bo the - military disaster by which that attompl was rondcred abortive. Hut why refer to particular oases I Why reason upon ovents that haro happcnod,or upon probabilities which present them selves beforo us ! The President of tbo United States has, himself, in his message . jf it required tha butchering of every man at tho opening of the present session of to keop up the war. He also undertook to, Congress, and his proclamation appended ' talk ol corruption In Buchanans adrainis thereto, announced his programme for tho I ptio.,-probably never hating hoard, that ' , , ' b this adnunistration,on tho statement of one reconstruction and consequent repreacnta- of b5s own partizanSibad stolen moro mon- tion of the States whioh may be rescued ey duriug the first year than the' whole in whole or in part from tho Confederates yearly expenses of Uuohonans adminiitraq during tho existing war. Tho Proclamation' extends a pardon ot all persons in the rebellious States, (ex- oopt ccrtain Oonfejcra(? offi 4-0.,) up. onoontliliou thntth ehM tak 9ubpcribo nd a crlbc(J oaU om) ,sJo'' . . . , . ... . ... ' , ,. ' ,, . , faithfully support all proclamations of the President mad6 daring the existing rebel lion having rofcrenco to' slaves, so long and so far as notmodiGcd or dcclarod void by ctecision of the Supremo Court, And it further proclaims, ''a ntimbor of porsons not less than ono tenth in number of tho votes cast in auch Stato at tbo Presidential election of 1800, having taken and kept tho aforesaid oath, tj-c., shall re-establiih a State Government which shall bo repub lican, and in nowiso contravening said oath such Stato shall bo recognized as thc truo government of tho Stato.1' This presidential paper must be regar ded as tho most remarkable ono ever is sued by an American Executive. The ona tenth part of a population aro to oxeroiao the powers of the whole, and, if Congress concur, arc to bo represented In tho Gov ernment of tho United States and in our electoral colleges for tbo choice of Presi dent, as if they wero tho whole 1 And this one tenth is to bo mads up of men who will tolemnly swear that they will obey and keep all the President's proclamations upon a particular subject, issued during tbo present war ; notproclamatiofls which ho may have issued already, but future ones also. A more abject oath' was never fram ed in the history of tho wholo earth. Was a religious obligation over before required of citizen or subject, in any ago or ooan- try, to obey and kucp tho futuro and un known edicts of thc Executive will I And if usurped authority can accomplish its ob ject, a handful of men in a State, degrad ed by suoli an oath, are to wield represen tative votes in tho Government of tho Uni-' tcd States, and enter electoral colleges to extend the power of tho master to whom their fealty is sworn. Congressional Address. A Touching Incident Mr.' John Seymour's recent report contains many thrilling incidents. Wo extract the fol lowing which transpired on the battle field ol Gettjsburg; : A rebel prisoner asked a clean shirt for his cdmrade whoso fresh, but blood stain ed bandages told of a recent amputation just above the knee; Ono of the Sanitary Commission gave the shirt, but said the boy must first bo washed. "Who will do that!" 'Oh, any of those women yonder." A kind looking woman Ironi Philadelphia was ask ed if she was willing to wash a rebel priso ner. ''Certainly," was tho prompt reply. "I havo a son in tho Union army and I would like to to have somebody to wash him. With towel and water in a tiu basin sho cheerfully walked through the mud to the tent. Careful not to desturb tho auiputa ed ieg. she gently removed tho old shirt and began to wash him ; but tho tender ness of a mother's heart was at woik, and she began to ory over him saying (hat she imagined sho was washing her own soni This was more than he could bear. He too, began to weep, and ask God to bless her kindnoss to bun. Tho scene was too much for thc bystanders, and they left iho northern mother and southern son to their sacred grief, wishing that tears could blot out tbe sin of this unnatural war. A Wonderful Cannon. A traveller, who wits telling very strange stories of the rcmarkablo things which ho had met with whilo ho was abroad, said thero wero can non so largo in Egypt, that onco being a oalasb, drawn by four horses, and U sud den shower of rain falling, ho drovo into one of them for shelter, calash and all. 'Oh !" said a geutlemen, who was listen ing to it, 'l can vouch tho truth of that myself, for I remember I was at tho very same time at thc other end of it in a post chaise, aud upon your coming in at tho mouth, I drove out at tho touch hole." Extermination. As the AbolitioDit generally aro advocates of extermination, wc would suggest to them three operations by which tbo matter oan bo thoroughly and effectually done. First, shoot tbo men ; sccoudly, itarvo thtr women ; and thirdly eat all tbo children S This would bo ox- termination in full, cutting off all prospect ' ' au altergrowtli.

ESyr; Somo poor dunco, who only reads papers in tho interest of tbo nigger, was blowing tho othor night, in town, that ho was onnosed to comnromise. or settlement t tion. Suoh fools are to be pitied.
