THE MEETING ON SATURDAY AND ON
MONDAY


We are again called to blush for the honor of
Howard county. So long as the shameless ISLANDERS
Of the democrat" and the Club were confined
to their columns, and enforced alone by their en-
dorsement, we have repealed the idea that any con-
siderable portion of our Democratic friends were
so lost to every feeling of justice and selfrespect
as to endorse and prOmulgate the most abandoned
alSehooaS in connection with the official proceedings
of public meeting. But the desperation of their
cause has brought them even to tLat--as will be
apparent in almost every paragraph, and every res
olution contained in the proceedings Of Saturday.
Intending to review the production in detail,
when our columns less occupied we will but
for the present elcitate our readers and the country
upon the unerrng indications, that the tyranny of
party whose leading office holders and partizans
thus shamelessly set at defiance all the honorable
ard manly canons of truth and fairness APPROACHES
ITS END!
Thank God! The destinies Of this fair country
not given over, forever, to the guidance of such
men. The inglorious race which they began in
fraud, and have sought to continue by force, will
be brought to ITS conclusion, ere the plans they had
meditatcd snail have spread the more ample desc
lation they had reserved for the next four years.
Courage Wings The Country is yours
But our principal object in thus abiding to the
proceedings Of Saturday. is rredicatcd on the as
,urance we enabled to give to our Just minded
friends of all parties in Howard, that, at the meet
ing at the Court house on Monday next, the false
hood and mendacty of this Preamble and Resolu-
tons will be exposed and proven in manner which
shall make its authors ashamed that they were
created in the fashion of men, while unendowed
with their feelings and attributes. As the meeting
is called for all, we hope that the authors and en-
dorsers of the job in question will at least attend
and defend it. To skulk off to the College, on pUr-
pose TO be absent, and to endeavor to prevent also
by SO shameless an arifce, the farer minded por-
ton Of the Democratic party from attending, will
be to acknowedge their mpostures, and to confess
that their principles and their policy, like their
sertlons will not bear the touch of examination.
CE57Come up therefore-or back out! The
Wigs will be there with Books and DOCUMENTS
not "CiQjS," or "DemocratS" or "GloJes."

THE ABOLITION PAPERS.

We have said that the Abolitonists and thc
Journals, generally, opposed Gen. Harrison's cleo
ton The following paragraph which is taker
from the Emancipator the leading niger journal il
the Eastern States we see copied in several of the
Van Buren, papers, and among them in the last
Democrat, and commented upon as an able and con.
elusive argument against Gen. Harrison's political
charac ter Thus, not only proving that the abolit
onists oppose Gen. Harrison, but that they favor
the election of that publicly proven aboltionist
Martin Van Buren,. The Emancipator uses pre-
cisely the same kind of language as the Globe, and
the Globe, Baltimore Republican and the Democrat
copy from the Emancipator, L riga ucrsa. General
Harrison," say the Abolitonsts, 'has always OPP
posed our measures, ard Van Buren, has in divers
instances shown himself friend to the slaves--le
voted to give negroes the right of suffrage, he was
opposed to the admission Of Missouri into the
Union with slavery permitted to exist, as also in
Arkansas; voted to interdict slavery in Florida, and
has NEVER favored the pro-slavery system but on
one instance, that Of his declaration in his inaugu-
raj addross-tO veto a bill which he know never
would pass, prohibiting slavery in the District Of
Columbia" And yet these mendacious editors
have the daring cifron'ery to charge Gen. Harrison
with aboltionisn and proclaim Van Buren, a rortll-
ern man with southern feelings. We refer the
reader tC tie last Democrat. which contains the
following with comments by the editor Of the lead
ing Loco-foco journal in Baltimore:
The poor old man (Gen Harrson) is fond Of
agreeing with every body, and particularly aurioas
10 get rates. When therefore lie is in conversation
with an aboIitonist, he is IN aboilioni>t-when he
is in company with citizen of tie Southern states
he abhorS abolitionism; and when he writes either
TO the one or the other he is Of the sam, side with
his correspondent, cautoning him however. not to
let his letter find its way into the newspapers"
