From a Political Pamp hlet by ''Gracchus.
Fremo0t'S Supporters,

We have been amused not little, by the
un5lushing falsehoo1s of pamphlet, entitled.
"FREAoST--HIs FRIENDS AND THEIR RECORD.
We have only time to notice one or two OF
these. The reractDus writer tries TO palm of
William LLOYD Garrison OF the Boston Libe-
rator, Republican, in spite Of the fact
that he has steadily opposed the Republican
movement. and that he belongs to that cE1ss

extracts which he gives from the speeches of
these new converts 10 Democracy; but We
protest against the hard names which he calls
them. Just listen to him:
But of all the damnable sentiments that
have ever met the public gaze were those utter

liam Lloyd Garrison, who, IN a speech made
in New York on tue 1st day OF August, 1855,

We congratulate our Democratic cousins
upon the accession Of this kindred spirit to
their ranks Cherish him. friends; he will
prove bright, particular star III your tirma
ment And pray, don't vex him by calling
him "a Black Republican," Remember
what beautiful thing it is for brethren to
dwell together in unity" His only fault is,
that. like all the prominent Democrats of the
South, he has the manliness to aUOp his senti-
ments. If yoH have not the courage or hon
esty to do the same, pray do not decry those
virtues in your brethren.
An attempt is made by this writer to show
that Chase, Hale, and Seward are disunionists,
because they voted to receioe petition for
the dissolution of the Union-supp pressing the
further fact that they opposed the granting Of
the prayer Of the petitioners.
Then again, Col. Fremont is said to have
declared himself unreservedlv in favor of the
principles of the Know Nothinys; though the
Committee to whom he should have made the
announcement, have, over their own signatures,
pronounced it false.
Then the Louisville riots are brought for.
ward-Iust as though Republicans had any
thing to do with them We leave the writer
to settle this charge with the Fillmore men.
We deem it unnecessary TO expose these
falsehood farther. Many OF them carry their
own refutation with them. That is poor
cause which requires systematic Jalsehood for
its support. Yet we suppose we must be
charitable, and conclude, with Jack Falstatf,
that ''it is harm for a to labor in his
vocation" The Democracy have no other
weapons than falsehood. They must not be
blamed for using such they have.
