The Genesis ot the Republican | Party, with some account of aboli- | tion movements in the South before 1828, published by D. Appleton & Co. New York, forsale at Washing- ton by W. H. Morrison, and at | Brentano’s, ~ lu political history, this is the great book of the season."The New York dailies devote large space to it, the reviews extending in some of them to two columns in length In all of them it is treated asa work of power, and the “Sun,” in. an article supposed to be written y George Ticknor Curtis, ranks it s the best work yet produced on its subject. The underlying thought of the work is, that slavery was doomed /to extinction by the spirit of the age; that having perished in every | civilized country, except the South- ‘ern States and Brazil, abolition be- | ginning in 1794, in the French West India island, and ending in 1829 and 1838, in Mexico and the British West Indies, the public opiuion of the Christian world was against it and was sure to bring it to the ground. The agitation in the United tates, the author divides into two great periods. The first begins with abolition in Massachusetts, in 1780, and ends with abolition in New York, in 1827; it includes the mak- ing of twelve free States. This he jealls, the ‘* Abolition Era.” The second begins with the election in 1828, of Jackson to the presidency | and ends with the Rebellion. It is | characterized by the efforts of the | Solid South to gain the control of the Union. This he calls the era | of the “Slave Power.” A brilliant chapter is the one that | paints the causes and origin of the | Republican party in the encroach- ments of the Slave Power in 1835 .| and afterward. The account of early abolition | movements in the South is new and | important; and the great cleavage | between the political abolitionists of the North and the non-resistants | of Boston is well handled from the /author’s point of view. This por- |ton of the work shows a broader | range of style than the rest. It is | by turns philosophical, discriptiye, humorous and instructive. The biographical is subordinated to the historical, so that we do not get the insight we would desire ia- to the domestic life of the subject; buat his public career shows him to have been not only a Christian |Statesmau but a man of lion- | hearted courage, His quelling the mob at Cincinnati was the act of a | great man. The book is full of dramatic in- | terest from beginning to end. The | narrative never lags. The style is | terse and strong. To all who care to study the history of slavery agi- tation in this country, the book will | be indispensable. The author, from | his youth up to his services in the | Union army, was familiar with the ‘anti-slavery movement. His testi- | mony is that of an eye-witness ; and in his book, he has taken bold and |original views and fortified them | with historical references. There will be dissenters from his conclu- | sions; but no reader of the book | will wonder at the sensation it has | caused in the political and literary | world. | oo oe Salvation Oil, the greatest cure on earth for pain has uo equal. | Persons suffering from rheuma- tism, neuralgia or from cuts, bruises, sprains, etc. should not be without it. Price 25 cents. Some men are very artful -and deceiving. Be honest with your friends. The report that Col. Carson was dead created a stir in the political circles. It is important that the Col. should live, so that his friends may not bave any excuse for not carry- ing out their promises to him. His most bitter political enemies would have ‘him to live a long life. It is the wish of the Bre that he will soon recover. He is a feeling man and true to those who serve him. Emancipation Day is drawing near. Who will be the Chief Marshal this year? Is it not best to do away with street parades? Does the United States Marshal intend to appoint any colored bai- liffs? Dr, Dorsey is a good many Mr. Marshal. There is a plenty of good timber from which you can select. Colored lawyers are doing well. Co-operation is what the colored people want. Dr. Gray is one ot the mest elo- quent pulpit orators in this coun- try. Will a colored man be appointed Recorder of Deeds? Let us wait and hope. Senator Chandler 1s a triend of the Negro.

It takes off the small as well as the big. If you want first-class job work call at the Bex office. All men live in hope for a better day. The President will make a few colored appointments ina few days. Don’t get worried, as the day of Jubilee will come soon. Presidential timber in 92, will be Sherman, Alger, Foster, Foraker, Allison and others. There is but one Republican par- ty in the District. Will the Central Republican Committee have anything to do with District appointments? There seems to be no recognition given it. The Commissioners have almost completed the whiskey cases. District appointments will be taken up soon. John A. Gray would make a good food inspector. He knows what is required and is well known in this city. Have patience, the promised card will be reached in a day or so. The darkest honrs is just before the break of day. Never give up when there 1s the least hope, Col. Hill will be seated. Good men are bound tojcome on top. Tricksters generally fail. Be honest and frank with your friends. Double dealers are generally found out. A good liar must have a good memory. R. B. Robinson admitted his guilt and judgment was given for $500. He should have done so in the first place and then a trial would have been unnecessary. Lawyer Brent, in his statement to the Corporation Uourt Friday, | said that bis client Robinson was | willing to pay $500.
