freedom, and ! have frequently thought
that no greater calamity could befall
them than the announcement, "fke fet-
ters are broken from every slase and fhey
all are free" Itwould create conster-
nation and Iamentation. Their stereo-
typed Pkilanthropies would be useless,
but the iron which would most deeply
enter their souls would be that this grand
channel to Office had been closed up and
Office Is not only their aim, 6sa their ffe's
6lood. Their acts have given the lie to
their boisterous cant about freedom and
they have strengthened the oppressor
and paralyz,d the arms Of those who
struggled against him. The truest ad-
vocates the rights of man have ever
had. they have prosecuted with unre
laxing ferocity and sacrificed every man
who stood in the way Of their goddess
ambition. sf ssozs .sa
Before the New Constitution divestedl
the Legislature Of its power to confer
Office these portkies presented them
selves every year in our City as a "bal-
lance of power" to trade with any par
ty that would give them the most pa
tronage. and BY that system of "truck
and dicker" s. P. Chase was made Sem
ator. The interests of liberty we're
with them subservient to personal ag-
grandizement, and they were transfer
red like drove Of cattle to the highest
bidder. These pure patriots now ask Of
the true men Of Ohio that they will smoth-
er every feeling of resentment which the
memory Of their iniquity awakens, stife
every pulsation that leaps for honorable
conduct and consistency, blot out the
remembrance of the corrupt bargain
and sale, and servilely lend ourselves to
the election of s. P. Chase as Governor
of Ohio and thus be his stepping stones
to the Presidential Chair. To this let
us respond in honest indignation NO.

DEsocRATIo TIoSEEAEORIAL CoxvksTIos.
This convention convened at the court
house on Saturday last. where another
farce was enacted, in which LEWIS An
DERsoS, Of Lawrence, proved the bright
particular star. The scene opened with
a grand tableaux in which was repre-
sented the essence Of the district. A
gentleman in buff vest from Vmton
county, appeared to take upon himself
the responsibility of the whole district
Gen. House was called to the chair, and
some wild-lOOking fellow with red hair
and whiskers was appointed secretary.
This red secretary requested the names
Of the delegates from each county, and
when Gsllia came to be called he could
not understand the name of one dele
gate, and after having it repeated twice,
he was unable to spell it, when the net
tied delegate who owned the hard name,
thundered out R-ass-elas Gates, when
the scratch, with bland smile, said ooh
yes" Well, to cut the matter short,
the delegates on motion retired to jury
room, and in a few minutes returned
with verdict cOnsigning Lewis Ander-
son to the modification of defeat, and
stretching V. NJ. Firor, the other aspi-
rant, on the cooling board for two years
more. Anderson was thereupon intro
duced, when he mounted the rostrum
and elevating his how-come-you-sO coun-
tenanee just even with the key hole Of
the front door, through which he look
ed as though he would like to crawl,
delivered one of the happiest natural
know nothing speeches of two minutes
duration, we ever listened to, the only
part of which We can remember is, 81
return you thanks, Democrats, for the
recurrence Of the honor you conferred
on me two years ksnes"-by which we
we're left in dilemma, whether he meant
the honor conferred two years ago or
that to be conferred two years hence, at
the disappointment of better man.
We could give many amusing Incidents
connected with this convention, but we
have not the space to spare this week,
however, we shall have occasion fire.
quently to allude to this gentleman dur
ing the present canvass.

EWe shall publish the list of Pre-
miums to be awarded at the Gallia coun-
ty Agricultural Fair, one week longer,
and we hope each one of our subscri.
bers will reserve a copy of the paper
containing it for use on that occasion, as
it win not again be published. All the
advertising we do for the Agricultural
Society is done gratuitously. and we
shall continue to do all in our power to
promote the cause, but our limited stock
of type prevents the possibility of keep
ing the List standing until the Fair is
held, and it occupies too much space in

But don't call upon us for back numbers
Of the paper containing it, for we are un-
able each week to supply the new sub
scribors that are coming in.

~Tbe name of Gov. TRIMBLE is
hailed as tower of strength for the
"union and the constitution" throughout
the State. He has accepted the nomi-
ton and in his manly and statesman
like letter, he meets all the State ques-
tions and popular issues depending upon
State legislation, and will bring with
him into Office long experience in State
affairs, incorruptible integrity and a
comprehensive patriotism. We place
his honored name at the head of our
columns this week, there to remain un-
til the contest is decided.

@ We publish this week, to the ex-
clusion of much interesting matter, the
speech of Hon. JOSEPH H. GEIeER, at a
meeting of Wings opposed to the elec-
ton of S. P. Chase, for Governor Of
Ohio, made on the 18th of July last
We request all to read it. Read it, ye
honest old Wings and Democrats, who
have the integrity and purity of the
State at heart. Read, ye Free Sellers
and Abolitionists, what is said of your
idol, Salmon P. Chase, the most cor
rupt demagogue that ever disgraced this
State in a political contest. We must
particularize and request our friends, A.
7. Holcomb, who called the Abolition
Chase meeting at Kyger, at which the
Journal was denounced, and Alexander
Logue, who presided as chairman at
that meeting, to read tit will do them
good. Read it, everybody, Wings, De-
mocrats, Freesoilers, Abolitionits and
Taylor Republicans; give it an atten-
tive perusal, and our word for it, you
will be greatly amused and instructed.
Take time and read it attentively and
understandingly, and then say whether
or not this abolition disunionist is enti-
tied to the sufrages of his duped and
injured countrymen to be crowned Chief
Warrior.
