there In regard to the Compromise is imboded in ,h
democratic organization. Everybody but Senate
Chase himself treats his recenty-avowed purposs y,
vote the democratic ticket as most manifest tergi
ersatlon. Everybody knows that the whqs of Ohio
In their last Legislature voted four 10 ON, Tar Tho inv
mediate repeal of the fugitive slave law on strictly ab
clifton reasons, which incorporated in their reso
luton Everybody knows, too. that majority of the
democrats Of that body voted against the infamous
resolution. 1t is record that the democrats in their
late State convention reairmed, without alteration or
addition, the very resolution which they carried
the State in l848 for Gen. Cass the non-nterventon
national candidate. 1t is on record, and undspu,ed
that the WING State convention emphatiediIy repud
ated all the obligations of the Compromise
In view of these facts it is idle for The Inelligen-
Ger try to break the force of The coming neIiqence
of the democratic victory in Ohio, by representing
that the Ohio democracy is in alliance with aboli-
tionism there. The fact is just The reverse. No
man in his senses will pretend that even Senator
Chase is worse abolionist than Senator Wade
And Senator Chase is just trying to work his way
into the democratic ranks, where he is utterly with
out influence or regular standing; while Wade is in
full communion with the whig party of the State,
was elected by its solid vote is, indeed its chosen
leader, and in the very letter in which he utters
the rankest abolitonism, and the deadliest hostility
to the Compromise and the fugitive law, openly and
boastfully procaims that he is " lOhig, GllU0ys
,Ohig, and nothing but 1chig!'
These indisputable facts. Let the South
and the friends of the Union everywhere, remember
them when the announcement comes that whggery
is PROSTATE and democracy triumphant in Ohio in
this election"
We confess we do not like the position of Gov
w God, nor the Democrats of Ohio generally, in re-
aton to the fugitive-slave law We have enough
of their course and sentiments to convince US that
hey untrue the Constitution, the South, and
% the peace and harmony of the country. We do
not say this of all the Ohio Democrats-far from it,

would do justice, if they could, to the Southern PeO
lie. But where and who is the Wing in Ohio who
las avowed himself for the fugilive-save law
Who is Mr.. Vinton, the Wing candidate for Gov
rnor. We undertake TO say that he is FreesoiIer
# the worst stamp; and we point to his vote, as
member of the last House of Representatives against
hat la,U, as proof of what We say. Mr.. Vinton VO-
ed, first, with Giddngs, Colt, Thadeus Stevens, and
thers, to lay the bill upon the table; he voted Sec
ndly, against ordering the bill to third reading;
nd he voted. thirdly, against the bill its final pos
age. For proof of this, Congressional Globe
'olume 81, part I'd, and page 1906. The Editor oil
he Raleigh Register knows these facts to be so; and
ret he covers them up, and seeks to produce the i'm
'ression that Mr.. Vinton of Ohio, and his friends
md supporters, are sound upon the Slavery question
md fiji persons to be associated with North Carolina
Wings co-laborers and allies.
If Giddings and the " Western Reserve wentfof

ePudiated by the Wings a national party. he

Democrat; and the Wings, we venture to say, Woulo
lot have cast him off if his Abolition conduct had
lot been glaring and Infamous as to compel them
o do it as matter of policy. They have made ia
ule, we believe, to repudiate before the public eye d"
heir higher law men " of note-such, for instance
Is Giddings, Seward, and Johnson; but they make
argains with them whenever opportunity Offers
ecause they know, from experience, that they can
chieve no victories without them. And BESIDES inc
masses of the rank and le and the leaders, who arc
eft behind in the free States, are not whit belief
fter all, than Seward and Giddings. They are a"
rds of the same color and feather. Here are there
