T1IK PEOPLE'S PARTY.
The Opposition to the Democratic Party
evidently do not believe with Madam Juliet,
that "their' a nothing in a name." If this was
not the case, they would not t'ave changed
often the name of their party during the
last six years. In 1854 they were Know
Nothings, iu 1855 Americans, in 185G Re
publicans, and now they are the People's Par
ty. As soon as their principles become odi
ous to the people under a particular name,
they abandoned it and adopt a new oce.
But it is merely the name they change.
They never abandon their principles. The
so called People's Party upholds the sectari
an principles oitne rvnowotuingism.auume

The fact that the Oppositioii have so fre-

nroof that their principles are Anti-Repubh-

pt man is never ashamed of his name, and
we cannot see why an honest party should be.
It is only the criminal or fugitive from Jus-
tice who changes his name, and a3 a general
rule, the greater the villian the more aliases
he can boast of. The Democratic Party is
an honest, straightforward and independent
organization. It has therefore never chang-
edits name. It has do alias and never will
have any.
The last alias of the Opposition is singu-
larly inappropriate Certainly an organization
which seeks to deprive a large portion of the
American people of the right, guarnteed them
by the Constitution and has not a local hab -

endorses the principles of Know Nothingism,

cf the American people of the dearest rights
with which their Creator has endowed them,
As ti Is ercjhatically a disunion organization,
and is constantly laboring to destroy the only
truly free government on the face of God's
earth it would be infinitely more appropriate
to style it the people's enemy instead cf the
People's Party
In this State the opposition under the name
of the Peoples party, will doubtless endeavor
to carry on the approaching Presidential cam
Dai'n by talking of the tariff question and sajiog
cs little about slavery as possible. They know
lhat a laree majority of the citizens of Penn-
sylvania love the Union and the Constitution
f their Country, and that they would not
knowiclv assist in sccuritg the triainph of
aDarty that endorses the -irrepressible con-
w
fiici" and higher law doctrines of Seward,
aod approves of the John Brown raid. In
erder to keep truth in the dark, they are al-
ready constantly talking about the tariff and
aurio- the people that they are the devoted
friends and the Democracy the uncompromi-
finr? enemies of a tariff which will afford am
pie protection to the great industrial interest 6200 certainly an intelligent giant like Co
r t.. Conntrv. Thev alwavs Wet how- vode, would be right in charging at least
ever that a Black Republican Congress re
J "
pealed the tariff cf 184G, under which the
Country prospered, and enacted the present
low tariff. This is a fact which the people
should not forget. It proves conclusively that
the cppositioulcaders are endeavoring to hutn-
iug the people when they declare that their
party is and always has been the advocate of a
feign tw iff
The troth is, the majotity of

t'oijgamj and SlaVerJr.
The Platform adopted by the Black Re
publican Party in 1856 denounced Polygamy
and Slavery as twin relics of barbarism, and
Senate Seward in the speech be recently de
livered in the U S. Senate reechoed the senti
ment. - Polygamy jri every Country Where
Christianity is the predominant religion, ia
regarded as a high and infamous crime.
Those who are gailty cf it are regarded as
enemies of and outcasts from society, unwor
thy to miogle with the virtuous portion of
their fellow men. According to the Black
Republican Platform, the Polygamist is not a
guiltier or more infamous wretch tban the
Slaveholder in a word" that Washington,
Jefferson, Madison, Henry. Lee, Monroe
ana Jackson, were me equals oi ioiygaoiist
in guiit cd infamy, and no better than Brig-
am Young and the ether deluded disciples of
Joe Smith.
This doctrine cf the Black Republican Par
ty is a direct- insult to nearly one half of the
Ainerican people, and a bold attempt to render
jkem infamous in the eyes of mankind. . The
tuan who believes that it is correct, must of
necessity regard a Southern Slaveholder as no
better than a mormon or iurK, ana must
therefore loath and despisa him from the bot
tom of his soul And yet we almost ev
ery day hear Black Republicans assert, that
their Party has nothing to do with Slavery
in the abstract, and that its only object is to
prevent its introduction into the Territorie.
Tbat this is not true that portion of the Plat-
form of ISoQ to which we have referred clear
ly proves. It is no wonder that John Brown
holding such a doctrine, planned and atteupt
ed to carryout a servile insanectiou in the
South, and that 6S Black Republican mem
bers of Congress believing that itwa3 correct,
signed a paper recommending Helper's infa
mous book to the patronage of the public.
-Would -ne the-peoplo of the Southern
gtate3 uave g00(i rcason to fear that their
rights would be endangered by the triumph
next fall, of that party which holds as a cardi
nal doctrine of irs creed, that they are al! guilty
of a high and infamous crime, and that once in
power, it would do its utmost to abolish that
which it regards a "relic of barbarism?"
The total abolition of Slavery would be the
rea j object it would have in view if it should
succeed in obtaining the reins of govern-
ment and its mvrmidnne would nrvpr rpst sat

was then the order of the day, 'we; cannot pay

However, M. D. Magellan,' Esq.,' who was
present during the entire examination, in
forms us that all the pupils acquitted them
selves in a highly creditable manner,, and
that their teacher had reason to feel proud of
them. He examined a clxss in Geography,
and out of about one hundred difficult ques
tions selected at random, not one was answer
ed incorrectly. Mr. Evans u certainly an

The execution cf Stevens and Ilaslett at
Charleston, Va., ou Friday,' was the third and
closing act of the foray of John Brown and hU
party upon the rights of a sovereign State of the
Union. Thus ends the "eventful history" cf all
those that were arrested, who participated in
that wicked and murderous inva-iou, and I trust
the example made of these traitors to the domes
tic peace and tranquility of the country, may
exercise a beneficial eSect. and be the means, net
ouly of deterring ethers from similar attempts,
but also to bring about a more healthy and
neighborly state of public opinion, witLout which
the peace and prosperity of these " United"
States may be hazarded. The cost, to the State
of Virginia, of this atrocious outrage upon her
sovereignty, has been in the neighborhood of two
hundred and sixty thousand dollars. This money
has been expended upon the execution of eight
criminals, who profess to believe that their ol
joct was cm of charity .aad phttanthrophj . In
addition to the lives of these culprits, tome t-ix
or eight others were sacrificed, at the time of the
raid, to this same false tpirit of pbilanthiophy,
and many a heart shattered and hearthstone
made desolate to satisfy the aggressive spirit of
lias mocKery oi love lor the colored race. And,
have the shackles fallen from the limbs ot one
tingle slave or the intolerant spirit of a wicked
fanaticism received the accession of a single de
luded votary. Better, indeed, had ail this vast
sum of wealth been lavished for the improve-'
ment cf the groaning thousands of the white,
Caucasian race; for tneir advancement in moraL
mnd all the reliaeuients of human life; for the ed
ucation of many a child of genius whose bright
native intellectuality is suflWed, amid the storms
of privation and poverty, to waste its halo un
