A movement is on foot in Canada to secure
the passage Of an act of Parliament by which
fugitive slaves may be sent back TO the United
States. They are not considered very desirable
subjects of Queen Victoria, aud it is therefore
proposed to make "black republicans" Of them
by shipping them back TO the States. The
North STAR" so long the beacon light OF lib
erty tn poor samDo, begins to blink balefully
at him. warning him back TO the "sunny South. ,
-Erehange.
If Black Republicanism (says the Penn.
syivaniaa) succeeds in its design of disunion
and turning myriads of niggers loose upon
the border States, particularly Pennsylvania,
there will be no comparison between the
evils already inflicted upon Canada and our
own horrible condition. Itmay be very well
for Vermont and Massachusetts,, where me-
groes are rarely seen, and for the fanatics OF
those northern regions that will not be imme-
diately affected by the result, to preach Abo-
lition doctrines, but it is impossible that our
own people can be so blind to their own in
terests as to court such q fate. The devour-
ing locusts of Egypt would be a blessing
compared with an army of suddenly liberia
ted negroes turned loose upon us. One Bed
ford street is enough for Philadelphia. BY
Abolition our whole city would be coverted
into negro quarters; whole acres of ground
would be too small to contain jails and aims
houses large enough to hold the criminals
and paupers among them; the wages of la
boring white men would be reduced to a mere
song; and the avenues of labor would be
blocked up by negroes, the substance of the
whole country be devoured by them. The
picture is too frightful to contemplate.

The Canvass in Ohio-Old Line Wings
on the stump for Buchanan.

The Democracy recently held an enthusi.
astic meeting at st. Clairsville. Belmont coun.
ty, Ohio, which was addressed by VIM. Ken.
nan, jr, candidate for Senatorial Presidential
~elector, and General James Weir, a distin.
guished old line Wing lawyer, who was for.
merly, for a number of years, a member o.
the Legislature from Ohio.
Mr. Weir gave a number of logical and un.
answerable reasons why every old line Whig
should now vote for Buchanan and Breckin.
ridge. At the conclusion of his speech he
said:
I inquire for the friends of my youth, and
ask where are the true hearted Wings, and the
echo replies, whereY / can tell you precisely
where they are. You will find them Gin the
breech once more" standing by the flag of theiI
country, bedecked with a constellation of thir,

the Wing motto: "The Union first! the Union
last! the Union everl"
DIR. Fielding, of Shelby county, a promi-
nent Wing, lately made a Buchanan speech
at a Democratic meeting in Sidney, aud most
heartily and cordially repudiated the Aboli-
ton disunion party.
VIM. G. Thomas, late Wing Senator, has
taken the stump for Buchanan, in Logan and
Miami counties. Thus it is all over the
State. that the most energetic of our old op.
ponents ere now coutending manfully in our

Enthusiastic Meeting at Plainheld
10000 Democrats I'm Council.


A meeting of the Democracy took place at
Plain6eld. on Friday last, which Outnumbered
any township or county gathering ever held in
this State. We are assured by old citizens of
Hendricks county that it was tpice as large as
any meeting ever held there. The enthusiasm
was immense and as wagon load after wagon
load arrived from various points, amid the
booming Of cannon, waving of flags and
sounds of music. shouts of welcome arose from
the vast multitude already congregated, and
Union. harmony and good feeling was the order
Of the day.
Among the many attractions Of the occasion,
was three chsriots, each containing thirty-one
young ladies, all dressed in white, and bearing
flags, emblematic Of the different States. We
venture to assert. and we think the gentlemen
present will agree with US, that a larger proper
ton of female loneliness never was c~ongregsted
together. Old Hendricks may we'll be proud Of
her daughters. A hickory pole, l6O feet high
was raised, amid much cheering, music from
the Brass band, &c. After the procession, the
immense multitude adjourned to a beautiful
grove in the ncighborhood, where they were adj
dressed by Gen. W. J. ELLIOTT, J AMLs NJ. GREee
aud Judge CowGuL. Mr.. GREeG's remarks were
forcible, pointed and pertinent, as was also the
speech Of Judge CowGtLL. The address of
Gen. ELLIOTT, however. was The speech Of the
day. II was the most soul stirring and patriot
ic appeal we have listened to for many a day.
His arguments were unsuswerable, aud the
whole speech clear. pointed. logical and elo'
queDt. He was listened TO with breathlcss at
ten,ivn, by the vast concourse assembled, and
made a telling appeal. which will be felt
General ELLIOTT is one Of the first of Indiana
orators. During the speech. the speaker was
frequently interrupted by bursts of applause
and vociferous cheering. At the conclusion
Of his ~speech-which lasted an hour and .
qusrter-the General was cordially congrstu
lated by his friends. aud a perfect hurricane Of
applause rent the air as he retired. This wa
a proud day for Plainfeld and the Democracy
} several Glee Clubs were present and lent mucl
to the success Of the occasion. No acciden
occurred to mar the harmony Of the meeting
and the assemblage dispersed fully impressed
with the fact that old Hendricks will be "righ
side up" in October and November, and no mis-
take.

@The Black Republican journals charge
Democrats with trying 10 make Fremont an
Abolitionist and a Stakeholder, a Catholic
and a Know Nothing, at the same time.-
The Democrats do no such thing. They do
not attempt to make anything out of FIRE.
MoNr-they can't make anything out of him
it is impossible to Go it. lie stands so
mixed up on the record as put forth by the
Abolitionists and Know NothiRgs, that a
Philadelphia lawyer couldn't tell where he
is, or what he is. He may be performing in
all Of these four characters at one and the
same time, for what we know; and SO far as
the public are concerned he is performing in
every one them. Abolition Know Nothings
swear to his acquiescence in their policy on
the subject Of "AmericaniSm," and produce
the best possible proof that he is in direct
completely with them, and on that proof
consent to support him. Abolitionists prop
er have had sufficient assurances ofhis agree
ment with them on the slavery question, to
warrant them in supporting him without one
particle of sacrifice Of their principles or con-
sistency. Hence he is clear on the record
with the "woolly heads" Men whose ve-
racity is not to be questioned or doubted, say
that they knoto him to be a STAKEHOLDER, un-
less he has disposed Of his human chattels
since his nomination. The FILLMORE Know
Nothings have proved, by a chain of evil
dence, more conclusive than that which has
sent many a man to the gallows, that FREE
MONT has been, if he is not now, a Catholic.
We have not, heretofore, cared to notice
this fact, because. with us, it is Of no conse-
quence whatever, whether JOHN CHARLES

this point, however, as on all Others, he does

When all the world was still.

He looked as ifhe wanted feed,
Aud drink from out the fountains,
And often turned his eager gaze
Toward the Rocky Mountains.
Buck and Breek,
You'll surely win the day,
The Woolly Horse has gone 70 grass
So all the people say.
He drew a curious looking chaise,
And Fremont sat therein,
With Horace Greedy by his side,
Both on a friendly grin.

Quoth Greeley, then, sub rosa,

From ont your .MariPesa."
Oh, &C., &c.
Fremont replied, {" shave Il there.
With that Wen make a spec,
And talk OF yalor, gold and snow,
And slander Buck and Breck.r
Said Greedy, 90 that will never do
Without some other hgures;"
And winking, both at once cried sut
" We have II with the niggers."
Oh, &c., &c.
Thus onward rode the gallant pair,
0fhumbug matter talking;
or tariff, bank and special bills,
For bogus and defaulting;
when, 10 they saw, far In advance,
Old Buck was going in;
"werI lose" cried Greedy in despair,
.. Our horse can never win.r
Oh, &c, &c.
g In spite OF mountains, gold and snow,
to- you now, 'tis fat,
Old Buck and Breck will win the day,
And 1 shall lose that hat"
The White House then come fun In view,
And Buck and Brock rushed In,
While all the people loudly cried,
