In Character.

The lowest and most scurrilous article
upon which Cur ewes have fallen for long
time is to be found in the Democrat of last
week, having for its caption, "Opening Of
the Fall Campaign!-Tbe Allies in motion" I"
TIE Democracy of Sandusky county has
fallen SO low thatit has no principles to ad-
vocate, nor any honor left to defend. One
of its leaders has taken occasion to SANDER
and vilify two colored men who came here
on the 9th inst and gave notice by hand
bills that they would speak in the evening
at the Court House; the notices of which
were printed at this Office; but not having
an audience they did not speak. The next
morning they had bills printed at the Dem
ocrat offiee-which Mr.. Flaugher received
pay for, at least, a genuine modern Demo
craL told US that he did-giVing notice to
speak in the evening at Buckeye Hail.
But as there was no audience there was no
speaking. "a noted Democrat, gave as a
reason for not having an audience, that "the
Democratic leaders had not time 10 tele-
graph to Pierce to know whether they
dare attend or not.) On the next merning
the colored gentlemen departed, not how
ever until they had paid aHtheiT bills.
The writer in the Democrat says, zone
nigger kept the door," while "the other col
ored gemman being within watching the
Giasticutis," and winds up as follows:
"Those present, after waiting till their
patience was exhausted, instituted an inves-
tigation and soon discovered that the mig
gers were non est, and subsequent informa-
ton disclosed that they took the night
train without paying board, Hall Ond other
bills. Wonder if your neighbor got pay
for composing and printing their hand bills"
The man who wrote the above must be
run low for a subject 10 lie about; be has
published all the lies be could invent about
the Republicans, and has, in order to ap-
pSace the mania that has possession of his
little mind, been compelled 10 SANDER two
emancipated negroes. The men came here
as they had a right TO. Their bills were
ordered by the Mayor, and we got paid for
our work immediately. The writer also
throws his filth on the Mayer for acknowl-
edgiug them as men and treating them CIV
lily. According to his theory Democrat
should not treat "a niger" as human
An editor who had one bit of decency
about him would not have Admitted SO IL
belous an article in his paper, as it was
wholly untrue.

The people of this State have borne what
the people Of no other State iu the Uuion
would have borne,-a taxation fit only for
Turkey or Russia. We have been brought
to this degree of endurance by gradual
process. We have lifted the enormous
load only BY initiating the example of the
man who came at last 10 lift the OK, by lift
ing it every day since il was calf This
law is a moral and financial curse. II
tempts every man to perjury, by placing
his interest and his sense Of justice in op-
position to it. Who does not feel that eny
decent means may be resorted to to defeat
an attempt to tax him on what be owes?-
And what multitudes will be tempted to
swear harder than 'our army did in Flan-
ders," to avoid it?
But the day Of Judgment is coming
The doom of this law-unequal unjustand
oppressive,-is written. The people wait
with impatience the opportunity to lay it
and its authors equally low.
Let it not be forgotten. then, that the
Old Line Democracy are pledged to the
support Of this laaO, by re-nOminatiDg the
men who have made and enforced it.
Remember, taxpayers, that this fall you
are to say whether you are willing TO be
taxed on your debts. Let the answer be
such as Auditor MORGAN, Treasurer BREs-
LIN, and the nabobs who are now assride
the necks of the people, will hear with
blanched cheeks and trembling knees.

gitive Slave Law-ihat blackest of curses
which resls upon our land-snd demand
its unconditional repeal. They are opposed
most bitterly, to the Kansss-Nebrasks bill,
and the striking down of that barrier set
up by our fathers, beyond which slavery
was never TO rear its black and scar-seamed
VIsage; and time and again have they
shouted the words "REPEAL, ""REPEALl"
How stands the Democracy Of this coEn-
ty on this issue? Are they in favor Of free
dom or slavery? If in favor of freedom,
they must vote and act with the Republi-
can party. If in favor of Slavery. vote and
act with the party who openly and boldly
announce themselves the natural allies Of
the South"
The Republicans of Ohio have presented
to the people of the State a tickes-cyery
man on it is pledged for freedom; for the
just and true administration of our Stats
affairs; and for the relief Of the people
from the unjust and erushiag iOeighi Of tar
alton, which Is now imposed upon them.
There is also another ticket in the field,
every man on it is sworn to the support
and extension of slavery; 10 favor Ofthe
Kansas and Nebraska iniquity and rejoice
that the Missouri Compromise was broken
down; they are the very men who have
made and enforced the Tax Law Of this
State. Which ticket will you vote for?-
If you are a lover of freedom and your
country, you must vote the Republican
ticket "Cboose then whom ye will serve"

"DemOcracv..

This word has been tower Of strength
to the party that has claimed it as an ex
elusive cOgnOmen. 1: was supposed orig
inally to mark party that was in special
and eminent degree the friends of man and
lovers of liberty. But what ever might
have been it's original Specification. it has
come in these latter days to mark the par
ty that is the natural ally" Of the south
ern shareholders; that originates and en-
forces so far as it can, an oppressive and
unequal system of taxation. If we would
understand Democracy as it now is, we
must describe it as Slave.driVing, ta1-la'O
Democracy. This. however, is the Democ-
racy Of office holders, and office seekers
the Democracy of the Administration and
its supporters; not the Democracy Of the
people. The whole North, even New
Hampshire, the Gibraltar of old Democracy,
has repudiated the modern article and its
venders. Undoubtedly the great mass Of
Northern Democrats do not intend to cast
offthe political faith they have hitherto held;
but they do intend to express their utter
adherence of that Democracy which polit-
ical managers have attempted to cram
down their throats; Democracy which is
called upon to exert its whole force to up
bold and extend the foulest system of op-
oppression on which the sun ever shone.-
The funeral knell of the demagogues who
have degraded Democracy to this, and who
have hitherto ruled in caucuses and conven-
lions, has sounded. That little but terri
bic weapon, which a freeman wields, the
ballot, has cloYen them TO the earth. With
them falls the bastard Democracy they have
set up, and before which they have requir
ed the rank and file TO bow down and wor
ship. There is still hope for the nation
The power of party is broken. The lead
ers can no longer drive the masses Ike
sheep. Their cries and yelis and threats ,c
set on the dogs, avail nothing. The people
trampling on party names, viii hencefortf
vote as judgment and conscience direct
1t is stark nonsense to talk Of Know Moth
Iings, or Know Something's. The men who
have commenced The good work Know One
thing, that they are resolved to Danish it
and establish a new and better order o.
things.
They will no longer consent that the
general Government in which they are part
ners, shall make them sharers in the gull
and shame of extending Slavery; they viii
no longer consent to be taxed on then
debts; they will not consent to have th,
banks of our own State crippled and ther
be flooded with foreign money. or by somt
new turn of the screws in the shape Of {
small bill law, be deprived of any currency
at all; they will no longer consent that par
ty hacks and trading politicians shall rule
them; henceforth the PEOPLE regardless,
of party will take the management of thei
political affairs into their own hands.

Their Cause is HOPELESS.

The Slaveocracy of this county begin to
see the utter hopelessness of their cause
here, and in the State at large. They are
strongly welded to slavery and the princi.
pies of the slavery extensionists, and yet
they dare not say any thing in favor oft
for fear the people will leave them and take
sides with the Republicans. Neither do
they dare to come out like freemen and
boldly declare like the great prototype oI
ancient Democracy, that they have "swOrn
upon the altar of their God, eternal hostil-
ity to all forms of tyranny over the minds
of men," And to keep the eyes of the
public from noticing the manner in which
they shuttle of this one great issue. they
cry continually, "KnOw NOthings," "KnOw
NothiDgs."
Let them do this to their hearts content;
bu: they cannot deceive the people as 10
where they stand. No. They are pledged
to support the institution of slavery, and
the masses of the people are beginning tc
find it out.
If there is Know Nothing in Sandusky
county, he is pledged to "eternal hostility
to slavery; that with his consent it shall
never be extended another inch; and thai
every State hereafter admitted into this
Union must come in without the slavery
clause. They are also opposed TO the Flu

This closed the nominations.

Mr.. Kimball also addressed The Conven-
ton briefly and eloquently. He thanked
the Convention for the honor conferred up
on him, and pledged whatever ability and
energy he possessed to the advancement oI
the cause.
Gen. Mason of Clark county, moved that
all the candidates to-day nominated be un.
animOusly confirmed by the delegates tc

eminently patriotic remarks.
Hon. B. F. Letter, seconded the motion
in brief and happy speach. He hoped
every thing like discord and difference
would be banished. and that all would
unite with enthusiasm to give the ticket
to day nominated cordial and hearty sup
port.
Hon. Benz. Stanton spoke elOquently il
favor of Gen. Mason's notion. In forming
a new organization, old prejudicss must be
sacrificed. We must forget the past snd
unite in the great work before US.

nominations heartily, and should labor dill
gently to secure their triumphant election
He had opposed the nomination of one o.

shown that he was for union and harmony
of action. He was enthusiastically cheered
by the audience.
The motion of Gen. Mason was ther
adopted with entire unanimity.
Hon. John. A. Bingham was called tc
the stand, and made an eloquent speech
