Said Mr. Sewaiijj in tho well

It is hardly necessary to add to ttiis in
contestable .statement that the rights of
thr states nnil tho condltiou of every hu
man being in tlicni would remain the
same, tho rebellion nieccedicg or failing
tho further fact that the new Prisidonl,a
well as tho citizens through whoso suffrage
ho has come into tho administration, has
always repudiated all designs whatever
and wherever imputed to him and them of
distutbing the tjhtcni of slavery as it is
existing tinder tho Constitution and the
laws. Tho caso however, would hot bo
fully presented if 1 wcro to omit to say
that any such effort on his part would he
unconstitutional, and nil hi? actions in
that direetiou would bo prevented by the
judioial authoritj, oven though they wcro
aa-cntcd to by Congress riid tho people.
Could language bo more oxpl'oit? Yet
compare this with Mr. Uncolu's Niagara

lic persists in keeping thirty mil
liunn ol p.jople at war rather than listen to
an ovarium of penco in which tho aban
donment of slavery h not tlio key-note,
and yet has thus publicly and officially
avowed, over and over, Lis repudiation of
purposes now diselo-icd, and tho lawless
character of acts now boldly done,
Tho Cvnp d'Etul does not show a more
shocking political immortality. Other
Presidents havo been inconsii-ti'iit, con-
tr.'idie'.ory, and illogical. Mr. Lincoln i-t
' tho first President who has dared to do
that which, when charged upon him, ho
had before repudiated, branded a.s law

our working men, becaujo thoy don't get
inoro than one qunrtor of tho vtagcii or" our
nun. Rut a German can savo money,
and ho ktiowa when it is fafe. Now
these shrewd, thrifty Gcrttiana want our
bond. They want them by millions,
They turn aside from tho great beggars of
Ihc world in Europe, and como to us Re
publicans, They treat tho notes of Na
poleoii aud Joseph and Maxtmillian with
iudifforenco, but want to discount nil tho
American notes thoy cm got. Tho Lon-
dou 7'e.v,saya this1 i3 all wrong that
tho Republican! in Amorica aro all bank

slight Iii-itish and Prcnch bcggar3, and
go bcgging.thoitisclvcs, to America. Aro
ihoy orasy ? Wc ask roor Jlkhard what
ho thought about it. "Why," eaid he,
'how can they bo rrazy, when they arc
doing just what I did a little nioro than u
year ago, when I pat my little savings in
to Govermnout sis por cents? Now poo
what I got by it ; just oount up. I hayc
roocived sis per cent, in gold, which av
crr.gcd 100 per cent, in currency, making
12 por oonl. income. Now, to-day, my
bond is salable in New York market at
10 per cent, premium. Put theso togeth
er, and to day I havo 22 per cent, for ono
year's use of my money! What do you
think of that ? You know, as well as I
do, that there nro thousands of pooplo
who did this, and to-day they hnvo 22 per
cent, on their investments. Why, I saw
Miss Jones, our school uiarm, go to tho
bank and buy a 8500 bond. Howshogot
tho money I don't know, but theso Yan
keo schoolmistresses aro firslrato hands
at taking caro of themselves. Well,
now, count up. if Miss Jonca sells her
bonds to-day, nho gets her $500 baoj safe
aud sho gets 1 10 clear gain. Can you
sharp fellows down thera in William
street do any bet'er ? You know I told
Mr. Smith, the backer, my ideas about
that, and he bought 3,100 six per cent
bonds, and yon soo ho got 81,100 for a
car's uso of his money. I mot him tho
othor day, and ha said, Poor Hicbard,ydu
aro right ; I begin to think, tho Govern
ment can tako caro of itself, and us too.
For my part, I mean to I ny orsoof.ho
T-IiO's. The rate of iutcrest is higheno'g,
aud iu throe years thoy will turn into six

it is right, on the money fide ; but, 'it is
right on tho country's side too.' Help
