substantial species of argument, they
drag from the burial ground of years
the expression Of Mr.. Buchanan's boy

misquote his speeches in order to
make him seem favorable to system

equal in the south-the honest labor,
er is universally respected and kind
lytreated, Nothing would be more
likely to rouse a southern community |
than an attempt to degrade a free man.
In the South the poor man is respec-
table for his color, while in the North
wealth. the rule Of distinction, and
poverty is scorned and excluded from
the social circleto far greater extent
than with the southern people.
When, from such state Of things,
you find a man uttering a falsehood
calculated to arouse the hostile feel
ings of two great sections of our
country, it is fair to conclude that
there is no crime or deed of darkness
beneath the sun that he would not
commit for the smallest consideration,
provided it involved no personal dan
ger. Such a man will destroy your
characterised your property
swear away your liberty or life
murder his friend or enemy by poison
or lying in wait, whenever it is nee
essary to accomplish his purposes.
Webster, who murdered Parkman,
was an angel of light, compared to
the deep villainy Of such a heart.
Webster murdered and took the risk
of his deed. This man would steal
life and character under the forms Of
law; and yet, it may be that he occu-
pies one of LIES high places. Angels
have fallen from Gods right hand
Men worse than devils, sometimes
ascend to high stations.
This is a fair specimen of The un.
holy warfare carried on against the
J southern people by the unserupulous
!, ambition Of Seward, Hale, Sumner
and Wilson. I grant that they have
, talents to make speeches, and car
} pile falsehood upon falsehood, until
like the tower Of Babel, they threaten
heaven; yet, they only build the mon
, ument of their own infamy. They
say they are no better than negroes
and future generations viii pronounce
: them far worse; for, since the fall o.
z Adam, SO great treason has not beer
} attempted against the human race
. Satan came disguised as serpent
: protesting wisdom; they come in the
, garb of a negro, protesting freedom
. Satan artfully contrived to have the
T law broken; they seek to trample the
I Constitution and the southern people
!, under foot, and, like that same fallen
. angel, to build the throne of then
e tpower upon the ruins of their victims

Mr.. Thomas W. Barber.

We notice ihat . meeting OF the people o.
Preble county is called, 10 be held in Eaton
on Saturday next, for the purpose Of express.
ing their sentiments OF the character OF The
above named gentleman, who wos murdered
in Kansas territory o short time ago. We also
understand there was one held in New Paris,
The native place Of tie deceased, on last
Saturday evening, for The same purpose. This
is nll right and proper. But We learn thai the
meeting there, instead ofbeing m "expression
Of the people, Of his character, was conduct
ed and addressed by few fanatical, disap-
pointed, office. seeking demagosurs, who seiz.
ed upon The occasion and gave vent 10 taeir
feelings in disgracelul harrangues against the
present administrator and its Chief Executive
-denouncing The las OF The land, The Con-
stitulion, and everything else, except ''nigger
stealing" having no more bearing upon The cir
cunstaDces for which the meeting convened,
than it had upon the slain in the Russian war.
We regret the murderpfMr. Barber, and sympa-
thize with the friends of the deceased in their
bereavement, os deeply as does any'one-but,
We de'est such Expressions Of The people"
Of his character os given by these individuals
who are dragging his dead body from its repose,
from one place into another, under the false earb
Of expressing their sentiments of his charac-
ac'er," when il is a notorious fact, tina: it is
done for no other reason, than that of making
political capital, and 10 ease the diseased
minds OF a few defunct abolition politicians.
Out upon such Expressions Of The people,"
and shame on such proceedings and upon those
engaged in them. We say that it is right that
an expression Of The people of Preble county
should be given for the loss Of one Of their
esteemed brethren, but it should be done by
the people, irrespective OF party, and in such
0 manner as the lame ntable death and esti-
mable character Of Mr.. Barber deserves. This,
we think, would be the proper way. The sad
event should not be used TO promote The per.
sonal aggrandisenent Of q few individuals,
who ore ever ready and willing 10 sacrifice
their principles for a "mess Of porridee."
whenever an opportunity ~ presented. We
hope the meeting here will be conducted
in a different spirit from that Of the one which
took place in New Paris.
