Mob in Louisville.

We last week published telegraphic ac-
count OF this disgracefu affair, and since that
time we have received full particulars ;recev.
ed through the Louisville papers. The state
ments given by the X. N. and the anti X.
N. papers differ so much that we are jus:if-
ed in doubling them both. In this country
where Il e supr emacy of Law is of such i'm
portance to the perpetuty of our institution
it is lamentable to see the eagerness with
which men rush into such movements, taking
the law into their owr hands, and shedding
human blood with imp, nifty The Journal,
says. of the riots:
We have the names of 30 witnesses by
whom it can be proved, that in every act of
violence, which tended to produce these riots
foreigners were the aggressors, and peaceabe
Americans the srst victims.
The Courier Says:-Every possible OBJ
struction was thrown in the way of those vo-
ting who were not recognized as Know No
things. Large crowds were stationed at tho
entrance, to shove back Preston voters while
side and back doors were provided for Mar
shall men. In. this way, unusual facilities

party, being in itself an outrageous course o!

grants them. About the Court House there

A nronOsitiOn.

As we do not feel the slightest disposition
to gag any one in political campaign, and
as we are always disposed to allow all per-
sons the "largest liberty in matters o. opin-
ion, we hereby offer the use of our columns
to any person or persons who are disposed 10
oppose the election Of Chase, g. advance the
interests of Medill or Trimble. We fare in
favor of CHASE for Governor, and we can
give good, tenabe reasons for that position
We presume any one who votes for Trmble
or Medll, can also give good reasons for their
position We will allow The opponents of
Chase the use of one column every week in
our paper, that column to be occupied in a
gentlemanly manner, with articles free from
personalities, and confined to the questions
at issue in this campaign. The CORE spon-
dent, whoever it may, can write over what
ever signature he pleases, but we will require
his true name; confdentially, Of course. The
writer of the articles can have the liberty of
reading the proof sheet before they goto press.
We obligato oursef to give the articles a
fair place in the paper and correct the typo
graphy as carefully as for any other article.
They must not exceed column each week;
we mean by that of course, they must not
run much over column. We would MT
curtail an article If it was three, four, or
twenty lines over the allotted space.
Our objec, in making the above proposition
Is TO draw out objections to Chase, see what
they are, and il possible reply to them. We
will endeavor, so far as we are able, to an
swer each article thus inserted, in calm q
dspassionate manner, confining our articles
to facts and arguments, always eschewing
personalities. Let some one embrace this
proposition, if the terms are acceptable, and
if they are not dictate their own terms, and
let US hear from them.

sight of the men who proposed 10 do this by
attempting to divide the anti Nebraska forces
of the State.)
Mr.. E. p. Norton next took the stand and
spoke at length. He also felt deep concern
for the safety Of the Union, and pursued
about the same line Of argument Of Mr..
Stanbery.
Trad Kelly then spoke briefly. We could
not hear his remarks, but infer that his speech
was an appeal old Wings to rally around
Trimble.
Joseph II. Qeiger then made one Of his
Characteristic speeches. We trust the re-
porter of his former speech was present, and
will favor the public with this last effort
When we receive copy we will hand it
over to the editor of the Cincinnati CONNER
cial for dissection.
A. Banning Norton then took the stand
! He gloried in being q member Of the Ameri-
can party. He declared he would SUI port no
man for Office that opposed the sentiments
OF this party. He was in favor of the Ceve-
land plat tfurm from beginning to end. AS to
Chase and Medil!, they did not represent his
sentiments, and he would not vote for them.
He could cheerIully vote for Mr.. Trmble,
for he believed him to be right on those ques-
tions He hoped this small beginning of
true Americans would resolve TO persevere in
the work they had commenced. He advised
the permanent organization of the sentiment
represented by this meeting as party in the
Site. He hoped the members of it would
20 forth, and proclaim its sentiments TO the
people, and he was sure it would grow from
this small beginning to formidable party.

The American Party.

The position Of the American party in the
State Of Ohio is now known. The final ac-
tion Of its State Council in reference TO State
nominationsis published, and it is satisfactory.
They have resolved thp'i, is inexpedent to
place State Ticket., nomination at this
time but leave their members free to cast
their votes for whom they please. This is
right. There is no necessity for division Of
those who are opposed to the present Nation
al and State A administrations, in fact such a
division will DE eminently injurious. IT. an.
ether state ticket should be brought into the
field the Locofcco ticket must be successful
and this would but fix, for another term, the
present party in power. This must not bt
done. The Locofoco party must be ousted--
a reform i'll our State policy must bc insti
tuted, and our people relieved of the weigh
Of taxation which is now cramping their en-
ergies, and crushing the very life blood ou
of them. There should then be no division
of this rcformatory sentiment either in stat
or Legislative elections, out fusion should b.
the motto, and Waterloo defeat will awai
the corrupt army of Locofocoism next fall.

The Meetino Tomorrow.

That the Republican Mass Meeting adyer.
,sed TO come off on the same day with the
Democratic Mass Meeting, was no fault of
the Republicans of this county, the editor Of
the Gasete well knows. 1t was arranged
thus by the State Central Committee, the
Republicans here haG no choice, and no pow
or to change the day. 1t v ould have been
better, no doubt, if it had been on some 9TH
er day, but it is now too late to alter it. AS
il is so arranged, we think the Committees Of
arrangement should fix the hours for the
speaking 80 that all persons who attend the
meetings can hear all the speaking; this will
be a satisfactory arrangement, and should not
be objected to by any tone. There will be
an immense crowd up here from all parts o.
the county, we have no doubt, and it will be
the day of the campaign in Belmont.

Governor Medili ON the stump.

We received yesterday afternoon, by tho
kindness of Mr.. Pettbones, the well known
and popular Conductor on the Hamilton ard
Dayton Railroad copy Of the Slnhusky Re-
custer ofyesterday morning in which we find
report of Democratic Mass Meeting, hold
en- at Fremont or Tuesday Governor
Mcdill, Col Mcdary and Mr. McCook, were
announced to speak, but the two last named
gentlemen did not nppear. The Governor
was on hand and so was ]. w, Taylor, Esq,
the State Librarian. Mr. Taylor made the
first spec ch, and said that the question Of the
day was Knolv- Nothingism. He declared that
Atchison, Stringiellow and other KaoW-No-
things of Missouri, were forcing slavery into
Kansas, and that the Democratic party had
nothing to do with it. This was the burthen
of his speech. Governor Medil also went
off on the anti Nothing shoot, but did
not carry it into Kansas. He said the Know
Nothing were in favor Of disfranchisng
dutchmen and en(ranchising negroes. which
was the very reverse of Taylor's charges
He said Chase was disuuionist, and this
was about all he did say. There were only
some three hundred persons present, and
many of those were Republicans. II appears
that the ground Of defence set up by the
"Treasury Esters" in the State campaign,
is hostility to Know-Nothingism We be-
lieve that the Governor, in the beginning of
his speech exhibited his historical learning,
by running out the genralogy:: of the old par
ties which formerly divided the country
This must have been as profitable to his hear
ers as it would be for farmer to re'thrash
ut straw of last year.-Cia. Gazette.
