,na,,ol Jefferson. To rally the sound
lead, and homes, hearts TO one great stand

and ardor of my soul We are defeated
at various points, only from want OF mar
mony and action No one can critically
examine The returns Of elections tor the

There is nothing, then, to discourage oe">

ard the certain triumphs OF the q uemocra''c
rariy. Without any further apology 'heh
fling my flag to the breeze, trusting 10
the noble democracy ofour state TO keep
it there flying
The response TO lhls announcement
from all parts Of The country was oi '"a'
hearty, feeling and enthuslastlc c"arao'
ter. that made me fear that could nov NJ
the expections Of my democratic iilehdS' J
hut Judging from The fl underlhg a"u
spileiuIness Of our opponents am cnee'-
ed with the hope tha, am yet able to GO
seryice in the cause, and 1t is win 'he
greatest satisfaction thatI now announce
10 the democrncy OF Ohio, whatever re-
norts may have been irdustrtousiy circu
lated through the country,) that shall
aii print and publish the Ohio Statesman,
during. for ought know, the balance OF
emy life. ask only the support OF the
democracy of the State as an editor and
asa printer--l have no leader out 'ne
people TO follow, no political or amoitlous
ends TO comsummate, but desire ooi!
for the triumph of the democratic parry,
the success of republican principles aho
tue happiness, prosperity and glory OF our
noble State. ] expect TO be wrohgeu'
persecuted yilli6ed and hunted down D!
nv political opponents, for have, | be
leye very few personal ones; but WINE J
have the confidence and warm support oi
the one hundred and sirty thousand demo
cyofs in our State and the good VIII OF
those out oft, feel all powerful against
their robberiesand bid defiance to their
worst endeavors.
Two wears ago the federalists had ma
iority in the Legislature, and IN the very
lace of law and obligations deprived me o.
printing, which, until then, no party ever
disturbed. The Supreme Court granted
an Injunction 10 stay their high handed
nets: but in defiance Of laws and courts
they ordered the printing done at the once
of their organ, in this city. This year The
democrats of,he Senate being IN the ma
;orty. passed a resolution giving such
printing as they had a constitutional con-
trol over me. And now, TO wreak their
vengeance and crafty their spite, they
,hreaten TO dissolve the State Govern
ment, rather than pay for work done, and
which they have appropriated 10 their own
use,
intend that these things shall be ex-
posed TO the world that the people oi
Ohio may see how their confidence has
been betrayed, and their honor sacrifced
Iintend to expose not obly their mus
tice to myself but show their disregard o
the rights and interests of the whole peo
ple-their hatred Of their own country
and their alliances with the enemy.
Will our democratic friends throughou
the State aid US in this, by giving our pa
per all the circulation they can! W Ill they
not step forward in this emergency, ant
aid us in fighting against the robbery ant
ininstice OF lawless Representatives of the
people! Shall we not find in the sterI
and stout hearts of this State, full OIL
sett TO the malignant spirit of the fedora
list. which leave no act nndone that is sup
posed will injure us? | ask, that my
friends will give, as near as possible, al
opportunity Of speaking through the col
umns OF my paper to every democratic Vo'
Ter in the Stale, that a full reint alton O.
their falsehoods, and exposition OF thei
conduct may every where be al hand -
If sach one Of our subscribers would pro
cnre one more, we would be more thar
compensated for all the injuries The iede'
ralisls can iu1ict by their i'll gotten and
brief power. The State must be redeem
ed from the spoiers-men who would de
grade white people, by making our state
the depo, of the whole colored population
of the South to fill up our common schools
and compete with the laborlng whit man
are not 6t to secure peace or order with
in our borders, or TO be intrusted witt
power. Let every democrat, prepare II
time for the work before us and OHl(
WILL BE REDEEMED! The paopl
will no longer submit to he inroads th
federal wings are making upon all thei
cherished rights and safe principles, an
will arouse TO actioR-to orgdni<dfton an
TO VICTORY. Our patriotic citizen
may be pouring ou. their blood Tor thel
country's honor and protection, yet tn
federalists as of olden time, are In leagu
with the enemy, and hostile TO their owl
Government. While the patriotic ar
