4, a .afe democratic party. We have |
II Shines been charged with uufsirness by |
prominent Democratic orators, both in Cuya- |
hogs county snd other parts Of Ohio. We
have ever been charged with misstatiHg the !
position Of the "great national Democratic |
party" and with endeavorng to create wrong
impressions in the minds Of oui readers. In
order to remove any cause for such charges,
we propose to sllow our opponents to state
their own case. First, let US see how the ex.
ponents Of Damocrscy-r a,ional Democracy,
anti.proscriptiye Dsmocracy-regard the liber-
" of the press.
From the Platte tMissourD Argus.
We consider Jesse John, successor to c F.
Holly, In the publication of the Savanna Sen
tinei, 100 small game on which to expend n.
mnpition. The best policy, in our opinion, s-
TO treat this humble votary of free soil, either
with silent contempt or to ride him on a rail
with little tar and feathers. The Sentinel Of
fce hes commi ted Sin enough long since to
have required it's submersion iD the Missouri
river. to wash them cut; and, as to Jesse John.
remove him from the borders Of Missouri as
nuisance--to travel iu the footsteps Of such il

her sister counties of Missouri, LET HER MOB

s Now, let Us see what the same party thinks
Of the prospects of freedom in Kanzss.
From the Kanzas Squatter Sovereign, Oct. g.
Within a month since there has been 4
large accession to the Slave population of
ksnzas. In this immediate neghoorhood
several new comers have settled, aud in most
instances brought several slaves with them.
This is what we like to see They cannot be
brought into the Territories In too large num-
bers. for our rich hemp lands will give sLfi-
Gent employment to the slave, and amply re-
munerate the owner.
From the Cleveland Plain Dealer.
II is impossible, in the nature ofthings, for
slavery TO flourish in Kanzas. Everything Is
against it.
From the Richmond Enquirer.
It's utterly impossible for the Aboi,ionists
10 attempt 70 make Kansas a free Stste.--
Nature designed il for slavery, and the South
will never give 1t up without a struggle which
may wreck the Union.
Let US next see how much this same party
10 deyatsd to tho perpe,uty of the Union. 1t
processes so much adherence of those who
place liberty first in the catalogue Of Ameri-
can privileges, that we naturally expect 10
bnd the most exalted patriotism united with
the most sincere attachment.
From the Charleston Mercury.
snl -.
SOUTHERN CosFEpRAcr, free from the inter-
medding OF Abolition fanatces--free from the
exactions of hostile and foreign government
whose ill-gotten gold is poured but to enrich
our enemies, and make traitors in the South;
free from the connection with people. whose
society and civilization are antagonistic to our
cwn--and free from that eternal dissenson and
chickering's which have disgraced the history of
the Union.
From the Sauatter Sovereign. "a
We s.peot TO u.k Of the Congress which Is
next to be elected, admission into the Union
asa Slave State. When we do, and 81 all be
refused, as 10 threatened. then we are for set
ting at defiance the Northern Government,
and hope and believe the whole South will be
with Us.
Here ii would be well to pause and ascer.
tain the position Of the Administration, as de-
fined by its OWE official organ. The term
"Aboitionists," il must be born in mind, 10
here applied only to those who oppose tae fur.
ther extension Of slavery.
From the Washington Union.
The Administration has lost no opportun-
" to msnitest it's opposition to Abolitionism

this heresy. This ground has been taken.
and ahe Administration has no sympathy with |
Ahoiliionsts and desires none.
Now for specimen Of Democratic love Of
law and order:
From the Squa,ter Sovereign.
We can tel the impertihent acoundrels that
they may exhaust an ocean Of ink their Emf |
graft Aid Societies spend heir millions and
billions, .heir represe natives "a Congress
spout their hers'tul theories till doomsday;
yet we will continue to tar and feather,
drown. lynch and hand, every white-livered
Abolitionist who dares to polute our soil.
Here il may be well to see in what light |
the operations OF the Nebraska Bill are view
Cd by the Democracy of the South.
From the Richmond Enquirer
Let us review our position. We believe
thst position to be mor' favorable TO the
South now than nt any period within the last
thirty years We have just passed through
struggle which, though lord and hotly con-
tested. HAS RESULTED IN VICTORY
TO THE SOUTH. The passage o: the
NsbrsskS Bill we look upon as marking the
beginning Of a new era, in our political rels-
tions to the Federal Government; and In the
success Of that measure we think we see
greater probability of securing our true rights
than at any time since the vampering Of the
Missouri Compromise.
II Is sometimes denied that the Democracy
of the South dictate to their Northern brethren.
