District, Who Is now before the Democracy IS
q candidate for denomination and election
Il fairly POrtrsyS his demagOgusism. and holds
out TO public view his fealty TO the Administra-
IiOn with al is corruption.
The Ant-Nebraska voters Of the Districts !
represented BY BLISS, JoHNsOS. LIEDsLEr very
promptly and properly refused TO support them /
iOr reelection 10 Congress. These men are
partiEaD PieEceites on all other questions save
on the 6nal passage Of the Nebraska swindle.
They supported the Admipslrstion party be-
fore sne since It's passage. Party feSlty with !
them is the primary question. The extension
Of the Slave Power they treat az an incidental
matter. They reluctantly v)ted against the
fna enactment Of the mons;rous National
Per6dy-or rather two Of thsm-through fear
Of their constituents. They would have gone
with DOuoLAs 4 Co., il they dared, but the
dread OF the wrath Of the people at home held
them back 0fcourse, such n.enare not the per- |
sons in whom q free constituency could repose
confidence. when the future great battlessbe-
tween Freedom and Slavery come to be fought.
! The representative of the Columbiana ia
trict ANDREw STUART, played bis card rather
more skiltuly than Bliss, Johnson or lindsey,
but aside IRON the superior cunning exhibited,
be stanGs exactly in the same category, and on
the same platform. After taking his stand
against the Administration on the Nebraska
bill, il was hoped that when he returned home
he would submit his STEwARp-ship to the
whole people, and seek al their hands YER
dict upon his eonduct--that he would have cut
loose from the Pierceites, and joined the ranks
Of The People. But instead OF this be CONES
back, announces himself as q candidate OF the
Administration party for reelection, and sub.
mits his name and claims TO the regular pro-
Slavery GnnvA~riNn nladoin0 himself, IN Rd.
vance, 10 abide by its choice, and, ot course;
Ito support whoever it nomnates. This shows
that his heart is with the enemy, whatever his
lips may profess
Had Mr., Stuart repudiat.d the Administra
ton, and submitted his claims o his constitu.
ency at large, it would have been the duty OF
every good man in the 2Ist district 10 have ac-
corded him a cordial and jealous support
Standing forth as a candidate for reelection un-
. der these circumstances, We should have pre-
ferred him to any other man in the district,
whig, free soil or democrat. But il is impossible
as well as sbsurd,LO expect that the Rspubh-
cans can aid in his election to Congress. They
must have a man theycan rely on IN the future,
in al. emergencies; man whose lead and
heart are both right and with them. Stuart
considers the Nebraska question and the fur
ther aggression OF the Slave Power OF less
magnitude than bis fealty to his party. He
supports the party that betrays Liberty. Tie
conIlnues TO act with the organization that
struck down the barriers against Slavery erect"
ed by the Missouri compromise. his position
is worse, and more dangerous to the cause OF
Freedom than that OF It's open enemies. No
man can serve two masters. Ha ihat is not
for us is against us. Mr. Stewart edits the
Sttubeuville Union. His paper flies the State
Nebraska ticket, and opposes !he election Of
Swan and Blickensderfer
The anti Nebraska ireemen, we understand,
are preparing TO bold District Convention for
the purpose of placing in nomination candi-
date, sound at the core, to represent them IN
the next Congress. 1here are abundance OF
most excellent men in that intelligent commu.
nifty, from whom to choose. And 1t is Of the
highest Importance that every man in the State
supported by the Republicans be of the sound |
est materials. They will be obliged to pass
thrcnIh fiery ordeal in Congress for the next
few years, until the great battle between Free
dom and Slavery be son or lost. Our man must
BE- reliable and ready TO ,aeet all aspects OF the
question incidental as well as general issues.
We must feel that their sympathies are with
us, and not with the enemy. Mutual conn.
dence must exist between representative and
constituent; The people are like jealous
lover, they can not endure nor tolerate dlvi'
ded allegiance. A man who acts with party
that is lesgued with the interest of the Slave
Power can not receive the support OF FFeemen.
A man, who in Congress, votes against the
perpetuation of foul national wrong, and yet
leans on the breast of the wrongdoers for fel.
loWship and comfort stulti6es himself, and has
no business 10 expect the aid OF Republicans TO
carry him b'ck to Congress. The people can
have no guarantee for the future howhe may act
on the great questions most affecting their wea
or woe.
The great Issues inscribed on the hearts o.
the people as their future platform. are; Re
peal or amendment OF the Fugitive Slave Law;
Application OF the Missouri Compromise to all
territories of the United States; No more Slave
States or Territories; The Homestead for free
men on free soil.
Party fealty and organisations, and the spoils
Of party, the people hold as chafy trash ip COM
parison with those great primary Objects-al
other issues must become secondary, until the
danger from the assaults of s avery is part,
and the great battle of Republican Freedom
Won. There is one safe rule in the present
crisis, and that is, to hold every man unworthy
of popular confidence and suffrage, who be-
longs 20 and supports the present anti-demo-
cratic and proAigate Administration.
COTswotD sHEEP.--A correspondent Of the
Country Gentleman tells of a small but rather
profitable fcck. In April, 1853, he bought
two half-bred Cotswold ewes, which in May
brought forth tour lambs. worth at Eve months
old. Ss each at this price he sold one and
could have sold others In April. 1854, be
had four lambs more, so now he has nine in
