The following paragraph published in the
Davenport Democrat, taken from the n. H.
Pairio, is a fair specimen OF the way in
which the present canvass is conducted by
the Bucsniers:-
Is 1T TRuEa-Colonel Fremont, the
black republican candidate for President,
is a SHAREHOLDERS So states A. J.
Lewis, Esq. Of Boston, upon bis own knowl-
edge.
We don't know who A. j. Lewis 10, but
we do know that il he ever uttered such a
sentiment be did il from pure maligni,y Of
heart. Senator HAMLIH, in his speech at
Worcester, thus refers to the baseless
charge
aJohn c. Fremont is en- anti-slsyery man
and has always been one from his boyhood
Although q native Of Georgia, and brough,
W in South Carolina, in spite of his early
associations he was ever for Freedom
| When embarking on his western tour, he
was asked If il was not his intention to pur-
| chase a slave, q a domestic for his wife
| His re ply was."I never osOned one dollar IN
human flesh, and while reason holds its
sway in my brain, ] NEVER WILL. ! love
| nv wife with the most ardent affection, but
| that wife must toll with her OWE hands,
rather than own the first dollar in human
flesh" From q man thus educated, and
thus true to our principles, we have the
highest assurance that with him at the helm
| Of the Government, if he can prevent it, not
one inch shall slavery be extended over
the National Territory"
