Fugitive Slave Bill,

We have taken the trouble to look over the
votes on the passage of the fugitive slave bill,
and we find that of the Northern Wings only
three voted for it, and that TWENTY SIX
Northern Locofocos voted for it.
Ofthose that opposed the measure from the
free States elepen are Locofocos, mine are Free
soilers, and EIFTY-FIVE are Wings
From Ohio three members voted for the bill
Messrs. Hoagland and Miller, Locofoeos and
Mr.. Taylor, Wing. Of the lodges from this
State, we see that Messrs Olds, SWEETZER,
Potter and Disney represent that branch.
We learn that Sweetzer left the day before
the vote was taken. We do not know how
he would have voted, but we know that Mr.
Toombs, with whom he claims to have paired
of, refused to do so till after the last Saturday,
and that he remained and voted for the BILL
What the people of this district, who are op-
posed to the bill, will think of Sweetzer's de-
sertion of his post at that juncture remains to
be made manifest at the polls

Business.

For the past two or three weeks our streets
have been literally thronged with teams from
the surrounding country, heavily laden with
wheat, for which they find ready cash mar
ket and remunelating prices. The price av-
eraging upwards of "a cents. The crop far
exceeds any previous year, both in quality and
quantity. There is considerable competition
among the buyers and thus the farmers are
receiving better prices than they otherwise
would. Fremont is first rate point to pur-
chase produce of all kinds, and it will not be
long before Eastern operators find out the
fact land to us if seems very strange that they
had not learned it long ago. and our farmers
will then receive still better prices
Our locol position, at the head of navigation
of the Sandusky river, our great McAdamized
road, crossing the river through the centre of
our town, our plank roads running into the
richest wheat-growing part of the state, are SO
many undeniable inducements for men of cap
ital to come and invest it here.

Which Of the candidates then shall we
choose? Both talented, but with dametri-
cally opposite political principles. The Gov
ernor surely, is not to legislate, but from bis
high station, he must be expected to to have
an influence. He has a right to advise to
those measures, which to him appear most ben.
e6cial, and generally as the executive is of one
or the other party, gives turn and charac-
ter to the administration.
The slavery question has long been an ex-
citing one. The Wings have not only been
opposed to the extension of slavery, but have
strenuously contended that the proviso re-
stricting it was constitutional, whereas the
Cassites have obstinately insisted it was un.
constitutional, and that the south had a righI
to carry and hold their slaves in any of the
territories now free. This, too, is a bone oi
contention between Wings and Democrats, toe
broad, and too plain to be passed unnoticed
the democrats voting for annexation of slave
state, the Wings against it Though they
could not repel her, and the consequent war
they may congratulate themselves by extenu-
ating some of the evils psrpetrated by the an
nexation. Their professions now of the love
of freedom, confidence in the WiImot Proviso
can avail that party but little, who voted to
admit Texas, and after supported Mr.. Cass
only as they manifest their contrition. Theil
past acts speak louder than their present as.
Iseverations. True, while Wing Presidents
advise to admitting no more slave states, they
cry out this is just what we wanted all the
time, the assertions of Mr. Cass to the contra
ry Notwithstanding.
Then voters choose betweenWhig and Dem
ocratic candidates at the next eleetion-aIl
good men We admit but some deceived most
lamentably.

Whlgs! Sixteen DAYS ONLY,

Now remains, till you will have to answer
the summons citing you to appear at the bal
lot-box, then and there to declare, whether
you are willing to live for the next two years
ensuing, under Wing, or under Locofoco
administration If you wish to have Whig
Governor, vote for WILLIAM JOHNSTON,
if you wish Wing Senator and Representa-
tive in your State Legislature, vote for JOHN
KELLEY, for Senator and SAM'L TREAT
for Representative, if you wish to have Whig
Treasurer for Sandusky county, vote for ia.
COB F. HULTS, if you wish Wing Prose.
cutting Attorney,vote for JOHN L. GREENE
Iif you wish Wing county Commissioner
vote for WILLIAM OVERMYER, if you
wish to have Wing Poor House Directors, vote
for WILLIAM ANDERSON and NATHAN
p. BIRDSEYE. These are the men which
compose the Wing ticket They are men that
you can rely on and put cofdence in. Then
why will you not place them in the offices to
which they are respectively nominated? Il
you make not an effort you cannot expect to
see them elected, for the Democracy most as.
suredly will not do it for you. But if you de.
sire to have the present admirable Banking
system of Ohio destroyed, vote the Democratic
ticket if you wish to have the Representatives
in the legislature of the do-worse-than-nothing
kind, vote for the Democratic candidates, il
you want to see Sandusky county remain in
the hands of these destructives. stay from the
polls and it will all be accomplished
wings! will you not obey
this summons and be at your posts, and work
the cause is a glorious one, and 20 be victori-
Gus would indeed be honorable. Let not any
consideration prevent you from discharging
this positive duty with clean conscience, for
the good of your county, your state, your own
household and your common country.
If you fail in electing your ticket through
out the state, you need not look for or expect
any mercy at the hands of your opponents
The fat has gone forth; the ler tGlion.s will be
carried into effect and it will not cease to be
pushed till every vestage of the wholesome
laws and enactments, which have been crea-
ted by the untirirg labors of Wing Legis-
tors have been swept from the statute book
This is not fancy. 1t is positive truth. And
the Democrats dare not deny it. For proof of
our statements read the Locofoco Platform, in
another column, and there you will find it all
in Democratic languade However strongly
they may deny it they cannot make the people
believe that they do not stand on this platform.
Be untiring then in your efforts, and you
can succeed Truth must in the end prevail.
The sth of October next is the day of contest,
and when the morning of that day arrives be
ready for its duties and being ready discharge
them like freemen.

to cooperate in prosecuting the work. We
understand it was determined to give notice
and take the vote of Lucas county, as author
lied by our charter, for county subscription

They have also opened books for individual
subscriptions. Fremont and other places west
are doing the same, and subscriptions are now
being made at the east end of the route. In
