NThe Democrats Of the Guy
ahoga district have nominated Fl.
W Wilson for Congress. An ex-
eellent nomination, and one that
will command the united support
of the democracy of that district.
BL. A. Hine, Esq, the cele-
-brated land reformer OF the west,
has been nominated for Congress,
by the Free Sellers of the I'd dis
trict OF Hamilton county
Judge Bliss--Tze Hgiitire Lar,
9'c-The Wing. press seems de-
termined to place, cur candidate
for Cong gress in a fake position
upon the Fugitive Slave Law
$50 called. For that purpose,
the correspondents Of. the Wing
Press at Cleveland and the Sum
nit Beacon represent Judge Bliss
as an s'avowed advocate of said
law" Nothing could be more
untruthful and malicious, as every
body knows, who has ever heard
the Judge express his opinions on
that law.
At the time it was. passed, and
ever siucc, he has uniformly eN-
pressed himself opposed thereto;
it, as every intelligent
man at the north does, as. a gross
outrage upon the slave himself
and the free people OF the north
who are called upon to assist in
the execution of the eSeerable
instrument. This the editor of
the Beacon (as we believe, we'll
knew whenlIe copied intoehis pa-
per a poptieilnf a a=fetter3ronf RAJ
VIENNA to the Cleveland True
Democrat repres enting Judge
B. as regartlingthe Fugitive Law
as the sessence of Democracy"
or something to that effect. Moth
ing bat ignorance OF Judge Bliss
sentiments, or pure ma Hoe, iifi,tac could
have induced any body to write or
publish such "a letter, or Mr..
TeesdaIe to publish it: knowing,
as he must, something of Judge
BIS opinions on this subject; and
we eanhafdly attribute this course
to anything but the latter motive.
Hiram Griswoh, also, steps out
efthei record, in a letter addressed
to the True Democrat, defining
his position before the Mogadore
Free Soil Convention, to attack
Judge Bliss in a similar manner
He is a very proper man to do
this-tfle same GrisWold who Of
fered to sell himself ont to Hez
Free Soilers and aeas. rejected
the man who told that Convention
that he stood upon the Pittsburgh
platform, and goes around the
country trying to coax Free SaiEz
ers to vote for Scott, with the
Eighth Resolution sannexed"!t y
One might suppose that Mr. Girls
void would feel somewhat irasci-
.hle after an. exnasa of that SORT.
