The Democratic sentinel and Harrison County farmer. [volume] (Cadiz, Ohio) 1851-1852, 1852-11-03
rhe Republiean Of the 2Ist ult.

Tne hepuoncdn OF the Stst ulI.
We stated last week that there we're some
things in the Republican. Of the elst ult,
that We should probably notice in our hexl
IraPer. We pSW fulfill that promise; and 10
50 doing, Te expect to be as plain as the
necessity Of the case demands.
The hrst article tbst appears in the Re-
lpRblean OF the above DATE. about the SEN
I,inel. is headed. "Besutial extracts from the
Sentinel" " Il would appear from this arti E
c!e that the editor OF tie Republican had
been stpdying the Sentinel oi the 9th ult.,
with the same diligence that student would
study his lesson. We are glad that he does
read il carefully, for in it he can generally
find something 10 write about. Ii it were
Aot for the sentinel, We think the wings OF
this county would not have an opportunity
"f reading many bright lacubraliuns from
their Distinguished editor. In that article
he shows the disposition Of the animal a.
bout as plain as it possibly can be shown
Tie labors hard to try and break down the
Sentinel lie even appeals to the democrA-
Icy OF this county. and asks them IN his
usual whining manner, "if they will sustain
such press?" Yes, sir, they will, without
asking your advice They have done it so
far, and Se know they will continue in "well
doing " There are also many honorable
wings in this county who help to sustain the
Sentinel, Tor which they have our thanks
For our part We do not wish to see the Re-
publican go down. but we hope it may pros
per; ior opposition is the life of trade"
The second article is headed--"0 Pri.
ratc Affairs" In this article he says that
We are inclined to meddle with his "priY ate
atlairs." This is not correct. We have no
desire to be quite so intimate as that This
same editor of the Republican has been la
boring M hard as he could during the past
campaign to prove that every wrong action
that WAS done, was all on account Of the
Gas! legislature. In his paper of the lst
ut, he set up an awful plea for the poor
banks. We thought then that it would be
good opportunity to show his inconsisten.
"y, and dishonesty, and We have done so.--
Hence this long TRADE about "private af-
f@irS.' We will inform this man, that we
write and publish just what We please, with
out asking his advice or consent. We are
glad that he is well supplied with an abun-
dance OF flour, potatoes, pickles, &C., &C.,
for We like to see people have full and plen-
ty. llatton may try to c!akr us look ride
ulous, but it is not in his power, because we
have been use to his slang so long, that it
has no effect upon us now. You must act
hsncSt, Richard. ii you do not wish yoGr
''priva'c affairs" medd!ed with.
The mex! article is about one that we pub
lished in our paper Of The 9th ult.. headed
" A Mean Trick" In this piece he shows
what kind Of q man he is. Instead Of pub
fishing on, srticIc in iull, as y gentleman
would have done, he picks out sentences from
different parts Of the piece, and put them
together, which would make US look ridicu-
ious. He tries hard to bring the whole
Methodist church down upon US. This,
Richard, is frultlesI ci!i,rt. The Methodists
IN this county are about as well acquainted
wish us IA they are with you, and perhaps
b=uer. We considered then and VIC consid.
crsu yet. that two or three Methodists about
freeport had done mean trick" Our
article explains itself 1t is not reasonable
to suppose that we would abuse or misrepre-
sent the whole Methodist church in Freepo a
"a church hat We were raised ina church
that our mother and sisters are members of.
No, we would not be guilty Of any such an
action. We have always had warm feel
ing for that church, and we always expect
TO. We believe he Methodist church is lust
like we heard good old minister of that
denomination say about it, He said "that
the best banks had always the most counter
frits on them, and that was the way with
the Methodist church. 1t had great many
counterieits, because it was a good church "
We believe that those persons that appoint.
ed the meeting in Frceport on the evening
Of the Democratic meeting, are some of tho
counterfetc. .a"
/ His last attack upon us is about an article
which appeared in our paper Of the 9Th ult.,
headed "Pious Work." Our article reads
thus:
"PIous WoRE.--To see leaders, rulers
and elders OF churches circulating lying
eIectiohsrrng documents. We have some
such in Cadiz. Let the people beware of
lhese hypocrites and their documents too"
Hatlon replies thus 70 US: aa4a g.,
Here is wholesale attack upon the mem
bcrs of tic different churches in this place,
who are 30 unfortunate as to be Whips and
have the :ndt pendcnce u sustain their prin-
ciples. "
The above extract Of Ilatton's contains a
bsrcfac.d lie, and he knew it when he pen
ned it. The word "Whig" is not mention
sd in our article. And instead of making 81
wholesale attack upon the members Of the
different churches in this place" We only
spoke of "leaderS, rulers and elders" "cirr
