The true Democrat., 1856-10-21
Treason to the South.

| There were but two tickets in Indiana for State officers-the democratic and the black republ- can. WILLARD was the democratic candidate and MORTON the black republican candidate. The Louisville Journal the leading south ern Know Nothing organ, has openly espoused the election of Norton, the black republican abolitionist!! Strange as it may appear this is the fact
 The Journal thus advised the Know Nothings of Indiana:
 "Our opinion is frequently asked by our American friends in Indiana as to the course they ought to take in their October election.- They have better means, and are no doubt better able, to form just opinion upon the subject than we are, NEVERTHELESS, WE DO NOT HESITATE TO ASSERT OUR VERY STRONG BELIEF THAT, TO PROMOTE THE GREAT NATIONAL CAUSE WHICH THEY AND WE HAVE ALIKE AT HEART, THEY SHOULD, WITH THEIR WHOLE HEARTS, SUP. PORT MIR. MORTON AGAINST MR. WILL LARD FOR THE OFFICE OF GOVERNOR The defeat of Willard would do not a little to weaken and paralyze the Buchanan party throughout the nation, party that lives and breathes and has its being in tho bittereSt and most fend- like hostility to all the principles of the American party and of all the men of whom it is oomposed."
 | Willard is national democrat Morton is all abolitonist and was the Fremont candidate for Governor And Prentice, the Know Noth- ing editor of the Louisville Journal, advised the Know Nothings of Indiana wiM Meir wlole heart, to support Mr. Morton" !!!
 Leading Know Nothings have been heard to say, here in Little Rock, that they preferred the election of Fremont to that of Mir. Buch- anan. This we thought the mere emanations of folly and disappointment. We never thought them the sincere utterances of real sentiments. This advice of George D. Prcn- tice to northern Know Nothings to support abolitionists for the purpose of defeating na- tional democrats, however, throws new light what we deemed a mere shadow, and proves that aboitionism is, at least, regarded favorably by the leaders of the Know Nothing order
 Our first charge against Know Nottingham was tudI It Was all dUOllllOu tTICh. Uc UOrlU- ern wing has long since become thoroughly abo- litonized. How far the southern wing is re- moved from aboltionism, we leave southerners to judge from Prentices adUice to his northern brethren to support abolition candidates. Prentice gives his reasons for preferrng the election of the aboliionist, Morton, over the gallant Willard as follows:
 "We wish to see the whole country brought, by the crushing-out of Buchanan in October, to the alternative of Fillmore or Fremont, and we shall have no fear of the issue, let the Buch- anan disunion leaders of the south do what they will"
 Can any thing more detestable and abhorent to southern ears fall from the lips of man?- Prentice wishes ~" the alternative of Fillmore or Fremont to be presented to the people!- He would not like to see the contest between Fillmore and Buchanan. He prefers it to be between Fillmore and Fremont, and then which ever succeeds he will be happy! He prefers Fremont to Buchanan and therefore wishes Buchanan crushed-out Oh! the traitor Southerners, what think you of Know Moth ngsm?
