A Good Hit.
The Hon. John Bell, of Tennessee, in a recent speech at Memphis, said he was now held up as an ally of the Black Republicans of the North, williqg to coalesce and co-ope-rate with them for the sake of promotion. He was willing to co-operate with the Black Republicans of the North, for the sake of preserving this Government, and perpetuating the American Union! Nay, t-e wna willing to go farther than this— he was willing to co-operate with the corrupt and profligate leaders of the Democracy, to accomplish the same desirable object. Alter this, no man can doubt Mr. Bell’* devotion to the Union. We love the Union ourselves, but the idea of co-operating with Democratic sharpers and spoilsmen for the sake of preserving it, produces nausea and pain in the stomach.— Richmond Whig.
