9'he Aim Of the Republicans.
Mr.. Briggs, of Cuyahoga county, who

Columbus Convention, for the office of
State Treasurer, thus unfolds in recent
communication to the State Journal the
purposes of the Republicans. Read it.,
Americans, and see if you can endorse the
with this policy.
"At this time, in the Republican ranks,
there should be no division as to the nom-
inees on the ticket All were fairly and
honorably nominated The PEOPLE sent
to Columbus majority of delegates in
favor of Mr.. Chase, and he was nomina-
ted, and should be elected by 10000
majority; and then, if the South wishes to
divide the Union, let it be done, and we
will get up war, conquer the Southern
country, abolish Slavery, and hold it as a
Province-and make, as Prentice of the
Louisville Journal said, "a guano deposit
ory of South Carolina"
There we have it! A dissolution of the
Union talked of in tone of braggadocio,
that should shame any honest man to hear,
and startle the spirit of every American
to work in opposition to the designs of
these insidious foes to the American Union.
