In common withhundreds of our an
ti-slayery'cotemporaries, we have borne
the variouis terms of reproach invented
by pro-slavery politicians—Such as. 'ab
olitionist,"amalgamationist;"itigger-
Worshiper,"migger-lover t i :‘misceg,ena
tionist,"fanatic,' etc., etc.—since that
memorable - :year, 1854. ?Most people in
this region know that we have never
turned aside to repel th.selwordy and
Meaningless personal attacks-; nor . has
one, nor have all'ef these intended dis
turbers of our serenity ever aroused ev
en the nuldeSt form of anger or indig
nation ha l .our heart. We entered the
field atranist slwqry with a promise to
fight it so long we could wield aspen.
or articulate a word. But we frankly
confess that, while weentered upon the
contest at majority, no expectation of
the abolition of slavery in our lifetime
ever cheered us. We put that event-in
the middle of ' . ilie 20th century. j
But human "foresight is often humili
ated by the workings of the Divine
economy. And today we can, hardly
realize the fact Una formal Slavery is
outlawed in this Republic. This fact it
to 'constitute the g,i.eal, landmtirk of the
• XIXTH century. Its tlstablishment has
taken - by surprise even the most saga
eiousof the apostles of universal- Ewan
ciliation. .
So, the enfr:anchisement of the negro
has wrenched away, the pivot uhOn
Which the system of , Amerlean politics
has turned for many years.. The negro
-as a political power—has diSappeared,
and this is, at lenigth, and for the first
time, a nation of frecinen. The terms
of reproach hitherto heaped upon anti
slavery men haVe lost their significance,
and are longer used, save by the 'curs
of Copperheadjoutna'lism. And every
good citizen, in hig heartrejoicwt the
dcwsruction of knavery, ivhatei-er nis
lips inay,testify. . -
The N. Y. World, always able, and
sometimes candidand sensible, takes'a
comprehensive view of the sittuttion iii
a bite article, an extraetJfrom which is
now current. . That leading Johnson,
journal declares that the franchises now .
confer Ed upon the
.freedmen are 'he :
yond the possibility of.revocation„ It
says that' the desirability of revoking
them•eannot be discussed. The perma
nency 05 the Reconstruction Act it of
and pronounces agitation for its
repeal political folly: This is sensible,
of course, and entirely true;. but if puts
the Democratic' .party completely out
of the,field; in fliet disbands that party.

the party is,without a rallYing-point.

who does not know what to do with his

is ever in 'the way ; whose4antalonns

lookingis at. him. Well, --why laugh
at him? Qur greatest statesmen dis
,played just as much overstrained mod
esty in . i"orbidding, diplomlitie agents
to wear court dresses on state occasions.
The wise` men of the 40th Congress are

authority; sand in a company where
laced coats and:embroidered waistcoats
are the fashion; would be thlgular, and
in bad taste. - .•

We protest against this nonsensical
affectation ofSimplicity by men who
know that dress is but 'the creature Of
fashion and convenience. The Quakers
fell into the same Pit, with their shad
-bellied, collarless coats, and broatihrinf
hats. A:re we never to be satisfied with
,the solids of repUblicanism ? or are we
to spend our gays ,in fixing a specific
dessert to be eaten after beef and pota
toes ? The other day Congress passed a
bill prohibiting the wearing of other
than citizen's dres by our diplomatic
agents ;;will Congress now inform the
country what, constitutes it, citizen's
dress ?- Is it a bob-tail coat, gaudy vest

or blaek coat and ants, white vest and

dence at all on the trial of the Conspira
fors, and that the . hi - '?ok • itself, now in
the hands of the Judiciary Committee,
,had been mutilated by, somebody so
that 18 pages of the diary were entirely
missing. He called upon Mr. Bingham,
who was Judge Advocate on that trial',
to account for the fact that the %diary
was 'studiously ignored in producing
the evidence. Mr. Bingham made an
- intemperate reply, in which no new
facts came to light, and the House

During the fell of 1865, the National Gate has

The National Gate has received the unquali•
'fled approbation - of all who have used it.
Those Gates, including Posts, are built at a
cost of $4 to $3, according to workmanship and
material used. Their manufacture insures a
