90 1t is currently reported and be-
lieved about town that AItred Ogle, Esq,
one of the Democratic nominees for the
Legislature has declined standing poll
for that Office at this time. We should't
wonder at that. Indeed, the wonder is
that he stood it so long, and that others
of the ticket are not declining.
"Straws show which way the wind
blows "-Jouy7,al
The journal has great knack of know
ing things before they come to pass. He
not only learned that Mr.. OGLE had de.
clined, when he hadn't done it, but actually
discovered the reason. A man who could
be converted by Mr.. Chase's speech a week
before he made it, is the only person who
could have made this discovery. Wonder
| if the Journal believes in spirit rappings
or does keeping late hours at the Council
cause him to dream?

Thomas Jefferson was the author of the

Fatal Accident.

We learn that Henry Dennis, citizen
of Green township, in this county, was
killed on the lst inst, by the upsetting of
a wagon. Mr.. Dennis was on his way
home from Sunfsh after night, and sup
posing the horses to be getting out of the
road, he drew them in the opposite direc-
ton, which turned the wagon over 1t
fell upon him, striking him in the back
part of the head. Although his skull was
broken, we are informed that he walked
some distance home. He died the fol-
lowing day.

For tho "Spirit.''
Religion and Politics.

Mr.. EDITOR - Since the Know Moth
ing element has entered into politics, and
prominent members of various Protestant
churches have become leaders in this cru
sade against religious freedom, Christiani-
ty has been retrograding. | do not pro-
pose, Mr.. Editor, to enter upon a discus
sion of the causes why this is So But
that it is so is a lamentable truth. Look
at the Methodist, the Christian, the Pres.
byterian, the Baptist, and in fact, all other
Protestant denominations, for the last
eight months, and we see nothing but q
cold and lifeless profession. NoreyiYals-
no accessions. Quarterly meetings come
and GO without the usual manifestation oi
interest in the cause of Christ. Pro-
tracted efforts, and yearly meetings are
without life-without zeal without any
good fruits. And why? Simply because
Know Nothingism has destroyed all con.
fdence between man and man-betweer
neighbor and neighbor-between brother
and brother. Instead of ministers labor
ing for the salvation Of souls, as formerly
they are now laboring to spread religious
persecution, and seeking the political ele
vation of protesting christians, who vii
advance the cause of Know Nothingism
and to accomplish this they stoop to every
means no matter how vile-no matter how
degrading. They even fellowship the an
Jfdel, who denounces the Bible as a fable
and our blessed Savior a bastard! w,
need not go beyond the bounds of our owl
county to become satisfied of the trutl
of this charge What lamentable fact
If ministers of the gospel would labor fo
the conversion of sinners instead of writing
such trash as Books of Canticles, " the.
would be the means Of accomplishing mucl

4'It cannot be denied, but by those
who would dispute against the sun, that
with America, and in America new era
commences in human affairs. This era is
distinguished by free represemative gou-
ermments, by entire religious liberty by inn
proved systems of national intercourse, by
a newly awakened and an nnquenchable
spirit of free inquiry and by diffusion
of knowledge through the community,
such as has been before altogether un-
known and ulheard of America, Amer
lea, our country, fellow citizens, our own
dear and native land, is inseparably con--
nected, fast bound up, in fortune and by
fate, with these great interests. Hftsey
fall, we fall with them; if they stand, it
will be because we have upholden them -
Again, Judge Story uses this emphatic
language:
"Let the American youth never forget,
that they possess noble inheritance,
bought by the tolls, and sufferings, and
blood of their ancestors; and capable, if
wisely improved, and faithfully guarded,
of transmitting to their latest posterity
all the substantial blessings of life, the
peaceful enjoyment of liberty, property,
religion, and independence. The struc-
sture has been erected by architects of
eonsummate skill and fidelity; its founda-
tions are solid; its compartments are beau
tiful as well as useful; its arrangements
are full Of wisdom and order; and its de-
fences are impregnable from without. It
has been reared for Immortality, if the
work of man may justly aspire to such
title"
o, my fellow citizens, let not the deep
and damning stainof religious persecution
rest upon us! Let not the ties which bind
together this glorious Union be severed
or endangeredl But let us mutually culti-
vate the true spirit of liberty, not only
granting, but unalterably guaranteeing to
every man within this great and glorious
land, civil and religious liberty, -not in
any restricted sense, but to that full and
broad extent demanded by the inalienable
rights of man.
But, my friends, / am not one who
'tdespairs. I have too much confidence in
the intelligence of the people to believe
THAT the digraceful doctrines which obtain
led two hundred years ago, can now, be-
meath the noon of the nineteenth century,
be fastened upon us. No, 7 viii not be-
Ieause I cannot believe it; but will rath-
er believe that disunion sentiments and
their equivalent II Know N Nothingisrn win
; sink beyond the hand of a resurrection,
that errors monstrous shapes will fade
away, and diAmerica press onward, fulfilling
her glorious destiny, until we can truly
q say
"Here the free spirit of mankind, at length,
Throws it's last letters off; and who shall place
} limit to the giants unclaimed strength,
Or curb his swiftness in the forward race!"

AIred OgIe. ESQ.

A rumor was afoat that this gentleman
owing to some local causes, had declined
being candidate for the Office of Repre-
sentative; and in order to put the matter
at rest, word was sent to him to meet the
Democratic Central Committee, in this
place, on Saturday last, which he did.
Mr.. OGLE here declared that he had not
declined, neither would he. So that this
matter is disposed of-all rumors and
tales to the contrary Notwithstanding.
While here we took occasion to have
some conversation with Mr.. OaLE, rela-
tive to certain charges put afoat by Know
Nothings to injure his prospects with the
Democracy. Notwithstanding the fiat de-
NAL of his being Know Nothing, con-
tanned in his letter, published by us week
or two since, certain unscrupulous gentle
men, continue to repeat the charge.
Now we are authorized by Mr.. OGLE
to say that he does not belong to the order,
and has no connection aoih 1t ,chatecer, and
that had he been a member of the order
he would not have so far forgotten the
respect due to the Democratic party and
to himself, as to have submitted his name
to Democratic convention.
This certainly is and ought to be salts
factory to all Democrats. And when the
charge is made, hereafter, by Know Moth
ings, we advise Democrats to make this
reply: you either know what you say
to be true, or you do not. If it be true,
you are perjured when you say so, because
you are sworn not to disclose to outsiders
who are members of the order; if it be
false, you are guilty Of the sin of lying,
when you make the charge; and you may
take either horn of the dilemma"

The Whig Party Defunct.

HE w mig Fafdy DeIunca.
Mr.. EDIToR-I was somewhat surpris-
ed to learn, as I did recently, that the
WHIG PARTY, of Monroe county, is to-.
tally defumct-dead and buried; and that
it went to the grave
"Unwept, unhonored, and unhung.'
I was led to believe that an old and
prominent Wing, who, for near two years
past, had claimed to be the only remains
of that once powerful party, still stood
faithful to his ancient principles, and
whom no threats could deter, nor hope Of
reward bribe from his allegiance. But,
"Alas, how art the mighty fallen.''
Judge of my surprise when informed that
that "old and reliable Wing" had forsa-
ken his principles, and now out t-Herods
Herod in his advocacy of the Know N 9th
ing-Abolition ticket. / had thought him
'-the noblest Roman of them alll''
But how wonderfully was I mistaken!--
That he should have continued his oppo-
sition to the Democratic party was to be
looked for, for s'what is bred in the bone
must come out in the flesh" But that
he should have turned to be a Know
Nothing, 'passes all belief" True, this
is can age of wonders,n and it is said
"wonders will never. cease" but that he,
the old, the faithful, the FIRM friend OF
principles, should "fall from his high
estate" and "play second fiddle" to the
dark-lantern oligarchy, is wonder that
outstrips the old "seven wonders of the
world;" and now, like all other Know
Nothings, he as sturdily denies being one
of the initiated as the most rabid member
of the Order! Alas! Poor Whiggery,
Thou art gone to the grave,
But we will not deplore thee"
Much Of evil and little of good was per-
petrated in thy name. But thou art gone
no more to be heard of except in Know
Nothing councils, where extreme care is
taken to nominate old Wings for the Leg
islative Offices, which may account for The
sudden and miraculous conversion of ths
last survivor. And now
Tiger with tiger and bear with bear you'll fine
In leagues offensive and defensive joined
Who could have predicted in the mem
orable days of lS40 and 1914, that il
1865 the Wing party would be known
only in history, and that in the great Stat
of Ohio there could be none found
$50 poor as do it reverence"
Again say, Alas! Poor Whiggery! Wh,
could have foretold thy fate and the fat
of the last survivor?
"Not drum was heard, nor funeral note,
As its corse o;cr the ramparts ras hurried;
Not,a KaoW- Nothing fired farewell shot,
/ Ger the grave where Whiggery lraS buried
Rest in peace! May no impious hand b
raised to disturb thy peaceful bones.
But, Mr. Editor, it is time I shoult
terminate these fugitive thoughts. I
''Thank heav'n that made me of an humbl
mind;

nag The Belmont Chronicle, which on

fB@ The belmont Chronicle, which on
the outside is dated September 9th, and
on the inside August Soth, says:
'.The last Woodsfeld Spirit Of Democra-
cy attributes to Mr. .lVhartona language
which he never penned. The Spirit will
find by examining the same paper more
carefully that Mr. Wharton repudiated the
sentiments of the article from which it
quotes"
The last "Spira'' preceding either of
the above dates, which would be that of
the 29th ult., contains no quotations from
Mr.. Wharton whatever; but that of the
22d ult does, and one which we claim is
from the pen of Mr.. Wharton.
The article which we quote is from the
weekly Gazette of Aug. 16, and the ar
ticle is one entitled "Ohio Politics." That
paper says:
eve published in Saturdays paper the
proceedings of the American convention,
recently held in Columbus. The tone OF
sentimentof the various speakers was con-
servative aud national, and they all express
sed a desire to do the South justice. The
convention conducted their proceedings
with greatest harmony;and on all sides there
seems to be but one end in view-the de-
feat of Chase, whose election they conSid-
er would be an insult to the South and
a stigma upon the honor of Ohio. OuI
readers can form an estimate of the state
of feeling which pervaded the convention
by the extract we give below from the
speech. of the Hon. VIM. Stanberry, Of
| Licking county. We regret we have not
room for the whole. ~"
Here follows the speech. The editor
proceeds:
s.Some of the Ohio papers state thai
! the attendance at the convention was com
paratiyely small Let this be it may
the American party of Ohio would occupy
more enyiable position in the estimation
of the country at large if it only consisted
of a corporal's guard of such men as were
in this convention, than if it had legion:
in nitsservice of the stamp OF Spooner q 20
OF course we are interested in the sue
cess of the American party and would hal
with pleasure the election of Trlmble,
patriot and true American; but thi
sinks into insignifcance compared will
! the defeat of Chase. Let Medill or an,
body else be elected who is of differen
s+o,,,,, FROM Salmon p Chase and we vii
say, well done Ohio"
Thisis the only extract or quotation
that we recollect of having taken from th'
Gazette for month of Sundays, and it il
positively the language of the editor, o
we don't know editorial when we see it.
If we had done Mr.. Wharton injustice
we would have very cheerfully made th'
correction. As the Chronicle has dom
us injustice we trust it will retraet.

A FreesOflerO on Know NOthingism
The Belmont Chronicle is publishing a
speech of Hon. GEo. w. JULIAN on .the
Slavery question, in its precise relation
to American politics." delivered at a State
Convention in Indiana. Mr. JULIAN, it
will be remembered, was the Freesoil can
didate for Vice President of the United
States, in 1852. The speech contains
the following extract, for publishing which
the Chronicles K. N. subscribers will
hardly thank him:
2 "I object to Know Nothingism, in gen.
eral terms, because, judged by the light Of
principle, it is utterly indefensible. 1t is
radically vicious in spirit. 1t tramples
downthe doctrine of human brotherhood.
1t judges men by the accidents of their con
-dition, instead of striving to find a com.
mon lot for all, with common access to
the blessings of life. 1t makes its appeal
not to the reason, but to the unenlighten-
ed prejudices and misdirected passions o.
the people. 1t excites our abhorrence by
yelling itself in darkness, in land IL
which the people are their masters, and
discussion is free. 1t is not called for BY
any real need of the times, tits at wal
with vJustice; Humanity, Repnblicanism
and the Gospel of Jesus Christ. 1t is
when dragged to the light, bald ant
ghastly heresy, wanting even the thin
covering of decent fallacy to hide it
naked features"

SfAfFOhp, Oep. otn.
Mr.. EDITOR; - The long looked for
nominations are made l believe that
Know Nothings are sworn to withhold
their support from all demagogues, wire
workers and foreigners. Was there ever
such reckless impudence, such stultifying
of their own principles? Were not the
wires laid and these nominations known to
the secret ,conclave in June last? Was
not the intention to elect a pure Know
Nothing ticket this fall determined upon
at that time? Did not the prospect Of
certain defeat induce those patriotic Amer
leans to right about face and get on their
knees and implore the Free Soilers to help
them nominate ticket on which all could
unite, nearly ali of which had been nomi-
mated month ago? Do they expect the
Free Soilers to suck that teat in the dark
when they cannot. see the color of the
animal? Are the Free Soilers green
enough to. take under such contract
Are Americans all wire workers? How
many such are on the ticket? Are open
honestmen Of any party going to vote
that ticket? hope not. HONOR.
