The Canvass of Faiseboods

Whatever may be the result of the
Presidential campaign, it will certainly be
known hereafter as the canvass of lies on
the part of the African Democracy
The most unblushing as well as foolish
and contradictory fabrications are daily
manufactured and set afioat by the press
of th.t party concerning Col. Fremont
and the Republicans.
They assert that Fremont is Catho'
lie. No crime, if true but it has beer
proved false. Fremont is member o
the Protestant Episcopal Church.
In the North. they say he is slave
holder in the South, an abolitionist-
both untrue.
They charge that he voted for the Flu
gitive Slave Law. He was not mem
Der of the Senate when that bill passed.
They assert that he voted against tn,
bill to abolish the slave trade in the Dis
trict of Columbia. He voted for tha
bill along with Mr.. Dayton.
The Cincinnati Enquirer one day warns
the people that the election of Fremont
will be equivalent to disruption of thu
Union or the overthrow of slavery, ane
the next quotes and endorses state
ment which it says John P. Hale made Il
somebody else that the Republicans car'
nothing about slavery--all they art
after is the offices and patronage of th'
Government.
If the Nebraskaites expect their false
hoods to win, they should make them
stick together little better than some o
these do.

stringfellow comes to the Rescue.

The Black Democracy. smarting under
the withering exposure of border rufiar
sovereignty IN Kansas, made by the Kan
sas Committee, find it necessary to dc
something towards palliating the crimes
of which their border ruff1an. brethren
stand convicted. Accordingly we fnd
them parading in their journals chap
ter of pretended outrages committed by
Free State men in Kansas.
This budget of lies, we believe, owes
its paternity to that notorious sheet, the
Squotter Sovereign, edited by the still
more notorious Stringfellow, himself the
chief of the border ruffian gong. O
course this fact will materially aid read
ers in approaching its truthfulness and re
liability! No doubt Stringfellow turned
it out to order to help his Democratic
friends along in the canvass. Well, they
need it, poor fellows.

Was Buchanan am ssoid Defender,,,

1t has been claimed thst James Bu-
chanan was not too much of Federalist
to shoulder his musket and march to the
defence of Baltimore, in 1914. Let US
hear some testimony on this point.
The Cha mbersburg pa Repository
and Transcript, a paper published for the
last sixty odd years in the county where
Mr.. Buchanan was born, and which is
reasonably presumed to know something
of his personal history, says:
eff anybody can show that James Bu-
chanan ever saw Baltimore that year,
we'll deny that Franklin county gave him
birth.
"Mr. Alexander w Hood, IAN early friend
and neighbor of Mr.. Buchanan, but at
present residing few miles south of this
city, relates, that in August, 1914, sever
al volunteer companies, in response to the
call for troops, met at place of rendez-
vous in Franklin county, Pennsylvania.
for the purpose of forming battalion to
proceed in defence of the country to the
Canadian frontier, and that James Bu-
chanan, who was member of the "Mer-
cersburg Volunteer Rife Company" and
about twenty others, backed out and re.
fused to go. Mr.. Hood remembers the cir
cumstances perfectly, and heard num-
Der of young men taunt Buchanan for has
coscardice. The companies marched of,
Withe ut Buchanan and his recreant party.
Mr.. Hood went with them, and was atthe
famous battle of Chippewa and Lundy's
Lane, at the latter of which he received
bayonet wound in the right side, the hon
orable scar Of which he yet bears.
So it appears that Hon. James Buchan-
an is not entitled to The credit of being
one of Baltimore's gallant defenders,
but that when called upon to serve his
country in the hour of need. he positively
refused, although trained as citizen SOL
dier, to take up arms in her defence. He
has ever been ready to reap the spoils of
victory, but never did ought to deserve
them.

the cowardly villain seems to have "waked

Buchanan,s Black Record.

The Charleston Mercury, the great
Southern organ of Buchananism, has been
overhauling Buchanan's official record,
and arrives at the conclusion that long
life Of devotion to slavery fully entities
him to the support of all the slave breed
ers. The Mercury thus sums up the re-
cord:
"In 1856, he advocated and voted for
bill to prevent the transmission of in
cendiary publications through the mails.
He advocated and voted for the admis-
sion Of Arkansas.
He opposed and denounced petitions
for the abolition of slavery in the District
Of Columbia.
In 1897, he voted for Calhoun's reso.
lutions, which embraced complete, con.
elusive. and direct assertion of the consti,
tutional rights of the States, of Slavery
and of the obligations of Congress &c
strengthen and uphold the institutions
of the South.
In 1888, '39 and 40, he voted con
stantly with Mr.. Calhoun, in laying Abo
| lilAOu pctitiOuS upon tiic Idoic'
In l845, he advocated and voted fol
the Annexation of Texas.
In 1847, he sustained the Clayton
Compromise.
In 1850, he urged the faithful execu
ton of the Fugitive Slave Law upon the
people of the North, and openly remon
strated against the State of Pennsylva
MIA denying to the Federal authorities the
use of her prisons for the detention of fu
gitive slaves.
In 1854, he advocated the acquisition
of Cuba.
In 1856. he sustains the repeal of tht
Missouri Compromise line and the Ne
braska bill.
On all occasions, and under all cir
cumstances, in the face of opposition il
his own State, and among his own peo
pie. during career OF thirty-six year
in Congress. in the Cabinet, and in re
tirement, by his speeches, and by hi
votes, Mr.. Buchanan has been the sam

Cursing the Dutch.

The demonstrations now going on among
the Germans all over the Free States in
favor of Fremont and Dayton. have alarm
ed the leaders Of the African Democracy,
and accordingly we find them bestowing
many left-handed compliments on this
class of our fellow citizens. Finding that
the native love of liberty is too strong in
the Germans to allow them to be seduced
into the support Of slave propagandism,
these Buccaneer organs fall to 'cursins
them. Witness the following from the
Cleveland Plaindeuler
These German ingrates are known
as busy bodies and mischief makers in

So long as the Germans could be KEEP
in the ranks of the African Democracy
they were praised and petted by the slave
press; but now they are "busy- bodies,
hair Tipped Germans" and mischief
makers" 1t is very certain that they
are playing the "mischief" with locofocc
calculations.
Speaking of the Germans. we may re
mark that Charles Reemelin, of Cincin

vocating the election of Fremont ane

According to previous announcement,
the citizens of Little Sandusky and sur
rounding country, convened at the new
church. on Saturday, the 26th inst, for
the purpose of avowing their attachment
to the principles of the Republican party.
Mr.. James Wilson was called to the
chair, and Thos. McGinnis appointed

and for an hour and half forcibly i'm
pressed the audience with the imperative
necessity of vigilantly taking up arms in
the shape Of moral suasion and the bal.
lot-box to prevent the extension of Ameri
can Slavery. Mr. Flood is an able ex-
ponent of republicanism, and fearlessly
tells the people (and more especially the
so-called and mis-named Democratic
party) of the enormities of that party ir
attempting 10 force slavery into Kansas.
Mr.. Hume, of Marion, member o
our State Legislature. was next called te
the stand, and with that ability for which
he is SO well known. completely dissect.
ed the Cincinnati Platform, upon which
Buchanan has SO ANONYMOUSLY squared
himself, and unfolded the iniquitous do
ings of the slave oligarchy. Mr.. Hume
is mild, firm and truthful speaker, ane
never fails to please all Of all parties.
The meeting was indeed large and en-
thusiostic. After the speakers wer'
through the following resolutions wer'
unanimously passed:
RESOLVED, That we, as Republicans
hereby pledge ourselves to resist, by al
proper means in our power, the extension
o slavery into Kansas or other territor,
belonging to the United States; and t
this end we will give our support to Ere
