The spirit of democracy. [volume] (Woodsfield, Ohio) 1844-1994, 1844-10-25

How can a whig merchant look his
neighbors and countrymen in the face,
after having gone about under the pre-
tence of buying tobacco, (but in fact
electioneering for Clay) at the same
time telling the infamous falsehood.
thatif Polk be elected there uiN be ,car,
and therefore, cut off the tobacco trade ?
Is not such conduct in perfect keeping
with whig declarations and whig prom
ises i'll 1910, when they said if Van Bu-
should be elected, tobacco would fall
to 50 per hundred, but if Tip and Ty
should be electe d, it would raise to Sc
per hundred? Keep an eye out for
these hypocrites and false prophets.

MORALITY.

How can q minister OF the gospel,
who has either sustained Henry Clay
for the presidency, or endorsed his NOR
al character, appear in the pulpit and
reprove duellists, gamblers and drunk
ards, without being Kissed or driven out
of it? The course pursued by some
cIergymen can only disgrace them
selves and the religion they profess.
We do not object to the clergy exer-
cislng the right Of suffrage; but we do
object to their making business of e.
lectioneering for as wicked man as
Clay, or endorsinghis moral character,
thereby bringing down the standard of
morals in the church TO a level with
that Of Clay's. What would the NOR
al world have thought Of the Apostle
Paul, and how Ridiculous wouldhe have
appeared, had he been found election
eering and writing letters endorsing the
moral character of such man as Hen
ry Clay?

MURDER.

We ask the citizens of this county to
read the following record Of most bru-
tai murder in the city of Baltimore.
The Bait more Republican, of Oct. A.,
from which this article is copied, says,
that this fatal result has '.followel the
deep hatred which influences bad men
to gain political ends" Has the time
arrived when democrats dare not haz-
"a for their favorite without being MUIR
dered? Isit by such means that Hen
ry Clay is to be elected?
ATRocIoUs OUTRAGE AND MURDER. Last
night, about O'Clock, most foul murder was
committed at the corner of Bond and Lancaster
streets under the following circumstances.
German democrat named John Henry Krager, who
resides at No. 76, Bond street, near Aliceanna
street left the house Of Mr.. John Uhlhorn
with a bucket to obtain water at pump in the
nelghborhood. While getting the water, party
of persons, armed with clubs, passed him, hurrafl-
ing for Clay, Frenghuysen and Pratt at which
he hurrahed for Polk in an inoffensive manner,
and with perfect good feeling, whereupon he
tuas most Mutoliy attacked tciM clubs and bfud-
geons, and b, aen in most fer0cious and horrible
manner, and when left, the party supposed him to
be dead: he was taken into the house and died IN
about twenty minutes The party, after commit
ting this horrible murder, crossed over to the
opposite side of the street, where they furiously
assaiIed Michael Baum, who was much beaten;
also, William Swallingburg, who, besides being
beaten, was shot in the hip with pistol ball; and
William Tatinghas, who was so much beaten that
it is supposed he will die during the day. The
party then proceeded further down Lancaster
street, where another person "a carpenter, whose
name we did not learn) was assaied and beaten at
his own door, because he was known to be a
democrat. A sailor, named James Buck, was also
dreadfuly beaten by the same party. Henry
Kabnneman, THAMES street, two doors from
Caroline, also much beaten. These hends in
human form, we understand, before these horrible
outrages were perpetrated, grossly insulted some
of our most respectable democratic citizens, by
stopping in front of their dwellings, and giving
forth their hideous groans Ladies, too, whose
husbands were absent were most wantonly insult
ed by demoniac yells.
We hope that all the necessary measures VIII be
taken to bring these desperate villains to justice
Where were the officers of the law during these
proceedings? Where? We have heard that a
watchman was called upon who refused to give his
aid in rescuing those who were attacked. We
have seen the budgeons with which the murders
we're no doubt committed; no one but desperate
would carry such.
The Young man, Krager, who was murdered
bore an excellent character, and was very quiet
and iuoffensive in his manners.
Since writing the above we have been informed
that James Buck, sailor, is dead.

FOREIGNERS.

We call the attention of our readers
to the following decision in relation to
our naturalization laws. That this de-
cision has been made, we believe there
is no doubt, as we have seen it in
both democratic and whig papers:
IMPORTANT ELECTION DECISION.
Judge King, of the Court OF Common Pleas, at
Philadelphia, decided on Saturday morning, that
by the naturalization of man all Of his minor chill
dren residing in the United States are, pso fdcto
made citizens, and entitled to vote when of age.
Judge King based this decision on the Act of Con-
gress of the l4th Of April, 1902, and on the dec-
sion of the Supreme Court Of the United States, in
Cranch's Reports, where it is expressly laid down
that she children ofpersons duly naturalized shall,
ifdweling in the United States, be considered as
citizens Of the United States" This decision is in
accordance with the opinion given by Reverdy
johnson, Esq, Of Baltimore, and Judge Marshall,
Of Frederick - Baltimore Si1h
