that surrounded the halls of Legislation
foul deed was consummated, and the solemn
contract with the State for the Legislative
printing was violated, out of pure POLITICAL
SPITE! No other reason was assigned than
that we had, by the publication of our paper,
annoyed the coon party and the ACCl-
DENTAL majority now in the Legislature
"a majority obtained by the most inexcusa-
bic divisions Of cur friends in three Senatorial
districts This accidental power, in viola
ton of all right, justice, or precedent, was
welded expressly 10 cripple and break down
the only press at the Capital that dare be in
dependent, and warn the people of the
chains forging in the Legislature for their
oppression and slavery. We DARED assail
and expose the iniquitous projects of the
whig majority in their schemes to debase
and bow down the white laborng man of
the State, while they were attempting to
gain little additional popularity by pretend

of officers alone, as the democrats did-but
by carrying their whole wicked acts of legis-
lation into their nightly cabal, and they le-

repeal of laws passed for the protection of
the people restricting corporations, &c.
laws some of which have been in force for
twenty and twenty-five years, and thus turn

sEcUTIoN cannot either stop or depress the
spirit of an independent press, as long as the
unbought freemen of the State demand its
services. Their acts alone cannot compel me
to bow before the nefarious despotism of the
dregs of coonery, hard cider, and the esta-
bllshed immoralities of MIR. Clay and the die
tators of his party. They cannot accom-
plish their purposes, if the democrats of Ohio,
to whom am indebted for so many favors,
stand by me in this crisis. | have stopped
at no expense or labor, to fulfil my part of
the contract as State Printer. accepted
the office in good faith. relied on the
guarantees of law and the constitution, and
the common honesty that has heretofore
all my predecessors of whatever
party. But a brainless crew of maddened
whigs-federalists of the deepest dye, con-
scious of their own bad standng-have out
stripped every thing that revolution has here

The STATESMAN will be continued as here

of Democratic Liberty and Equal
Rights-and to the administration of the Gen

lultles and outlages of federal whiggery, and
the Infamous and unparalleled
proceedings of the present Legislature.
