A POWERFUL APPEAL TO DEMOCRATS.

WINGS VOTING FOR RICHARDSON,

To show that members Of Congress from the slave States
consider the slave question to all other issues
need only refer the fact that Mesrs Caruhers and Oliver
of Missouri, Bowie from Maryland, Stephens from Georgia.
Evans from Texas, and Talbot from Kentucky all elected
Congress whgs and opposed the administration
voted for Richardson, the administration candidate for
Speaker. And yet these complain of the North and
charge upon that seetionass
Ohio State Journal.
This is new way Of proving that the southern men
who for the democratic candidate for Speaker are
sectional and Of jusiing the northern fusion
in favor of the sectional organization of the House.
Col Richardson, for whom these gentlemen voting,
is northern man. standing upon the principles of the
constitution which protects both North and South, dis
carding all geographical lines and bang every citizen,

hailed the air of Heaven in other lands friend and

its when it tries prove that southern support of
such candidate for Speaker convics southern of
identity with sectional politics.
