the Journal to the following from the
New Yord Herald, one of the FREMONT
organs of New York City, where FRE-
MoNT isnow staying:
1.-THE Kansas question settled, all
further agitation would cease and that
it will be settled on some honorable
terms, we will not, cannot doubt. We
prefer that it shall enter tho Union as a
SLAVE STATE, in order that this
balance of power may be maintained,
believing at the same time that it will
be of no disadvantage whatever to the
slave population or the free States-no
infraction of the laws of God or man.
In these sentiments the friends of Col.

Editor Ashland Union !: Sir AS you
appear to be laboring with commendable zeal
to keep your readers posted in regard to all
matters affecting their political, social and Pc
cuniary w~elfares, permit us to call their atten-
ton to the fact that we have just received the
heaviest stock of Spring and Summer Goods
that we have ever brought to this market. An
extended enumeration of our stock we deem
altogether unnecessary for the reason that eve
ry one who Will favor us with 4 call Will find it
complete in every department. We would
simply simply say that it embraces articles of
every style, variety and quality of Ladies
Dress Goods, and Gentlemen's Summer Wear
together with a large assortment of House
Keeping Goods, Queensware, Groceries, &c.
Having changed our mode of doing business,
it will be proper for US to state, for the salts
faction Cf our old customers, briefly, our real
sons for so doing. Our first great object is to
sell goods CHEAP. To do this we must have the
money to buy our goods cheap. We wish TO
avoid The losses of bad debts and i" long wind
ed customers We wish to save the expense
of keeping books aud making collections. BY
so doing we can and will sell goods at much
less profits than is possible for any credit store
to do 1st, because we shall have the money
to buy our goods, which will save US 10 per
cent, 2nd, because we shall save the expense
Of one Clerk Sd, we will save ; per cent. for
making collections, losses by bad debts and
expense of books. All things considered, we
think it safe to say that it will make a: differ
enee of at least i5 per cent. to the consumer.
This being true We think every man, woman
and child who can pay for their goods, will
avail themselves of the advantages of this sys-
tenn. Those who never expect 10 pay for their
goods. of course care b~utlittle about the price.
All those who wish to buy goods cheap Tor rca
dE pay can find Il stock of goods which for va
ricty, styles and low prices, has never been
equalcd IN the County, by calling on their
friends and well-wishcr<.

GEORGE w. enDDEs, ESQ.

The judicial Convention which met
in Mansfield on Wednesday last, nomi-
mated by reclamation GEORGE ". GED-
LES, Esq, of Mansfield, as the Demo
cratic candidate for Judge of the Court
of Common Pleas, in this Judicial Dis
trict. 1t is with no little pride and
pleasure that We place the name of Mr..
GEDpEs on our ticket. We have been
intimately acquainted with him from
the beginning of his professional career.
We witnessed his maiden efforts in the
law, when he was struggling with power
ty, and have watched his course as he
gradually advanced to his present envi-
able position as a lawyer and jurist.
"Some men are born great-others have
greatness thrust upon them "-but not
so with Mr. GEDDEs. He has grappled
with poverty, and has elevated himself
from obscurity by his own untiriag ex-
e%rtions. In a word, he is a sey-m1ade
man. No man of ordinary discrimina-
ton, in this District, will presume to
question his ability or his legal attain
ments Ibis qualifications for the Office for
which he is nominated will not be dispu-
ted. The unanimity with which be was
nominated, is the best evidence of his pop
ularity with his party and with the people.
He is decidedly the most available man
| that could have been nominated. He has
exhibited 10 such want of political integ-
rity as has his opponent, Judge STEW
ART. His habits and his moral stand
ing in the community in which he lives,
are all that could be desired Although
our opponents may charge that he was
once a Wing, yet we can answer that he
changed his political opinions when
there was no earthly indueement for
him to do so save an honest desire to
be right, and that be has never faltered
in his support of Democratic men and
measures since. And although misfor-
tune after misfortune-defeat after de-
feat-has befallen the Democratic par
ty since he joined us, be has never stray
ed from the path of duty. His quali6-
cations for the Office are, TO say the
least, fully equal to those of his COM
petitor, and his moral character, all
must admit to be infinitely superior.
He viii unquestionably be elected by
an overwhelming majority, if the peo-
pie yet regard moral purity as one of
the qualifications to be possessed by those
who ask to BIO elevated to high places.

rGf tae A@hiin.I onion
G. ". BrSH>ELL, Esq Sir: T'kc
above appeared il. last WEEKS Times,
and was it not that ali uufavorable in
preston might go abroad unless correct
ed, is our apology for appearing in the
column s of your paper as indicators Of
the truth.
At a meeting of the Democratic Club
Of this Township, held on Friday even
ing last, the undersigned (cognizant Of
the facts about to be rclated.) were ap-
pointed a committee to r~efu.e, through
the columns of your paper, the vile aud
calumnious SANDERS charged against the
peaceable and l~aw-abiding citizens Of
our beautiful village, aud others who par
ticipatcd with US on the occasion.
And as {" you are aware that this plaoe
is distinguished for the liberty-loyiug
character of it's population" we will
exercise our " inalieuable rights" and
proceed to give you the truth in the case.
Without commenting on the authors
description of d" the efforts that had been
made -" the most signal failure -
" our bitter disappointment" and his
snail praise of tue pole, would reply
that, to our knowledge, "permission
was not |" asked to erect u platform on
the shady side of the car" for it was
not his (James Weich's} to grant-hc
not being a citizen, and the ground up
on which the car stood belonged to the
real estate owner of this village, He
had granted permission that the speak
crs might occupy the car, but the Bor-
der Rufians chose to be outside, and
as soon as he ascertained their intention
said he had no objection. Soon af-
ter, while the platform was being built,
he threw open the sky-light of the car,
and declared he would run eattherefrom
and over the platform, a Fremont flag.
One or moro of our number advised him
not to do so. He went after the flag,
and when on his way was met by anoth-
CT DOEUeT huuldu -Ouc OF our own
number-and advised and finally told
that he must not put it up; that under
the circumstances it would not be right.
lie then made the declaration which is
charged upon us, with a slight varia-
tionD that che would put up the flag
even if he had to wade in blood to his
knees to accomplish it" Wherenpon
some of the b'hoys said if be undertook
that job, they would take the car off the
square and throw it into the street.
The flag was not put up-it did not
stream in the free, wild winds" conse-
quently could not have been taken down.
1t was taken and hid by a member of
their own party-an honorable man
who would not countenance their pro-
ceedings, and who took that course to
prevent its being put up. Neither was
the car demolished or molested-the
thing was not touched. The outrages
specified in the article alluded to are
akin to the Black Republican charges
against the Democracy, of Border
Rufianism in Kansas" Brooks caned.

GREAT DEMOCRATIC RALLY-BoRDER
RUrFIANIsM TR1UMPHANr.-lr. Ed
tor:-You are aware that the sham
Democracy were to have q terrible " ris"
at the village of Savannah on Friday
Aug. 22d. Well it came off yesterday
and considering the effort that had been
made to make it a splendid affair, it wasa
most signal failure. You are aware that
this place is distinguished for the liberty
loving character of its population, and
consequently it was deemed matter of
great Importance that the Democracy"
should show a splendid front, over awe by
dint of numbers what they could not by
force of argumeut-the irresistible spir-
it of freedom which is manifesting itself;
but bitter must have been their disap-
pointment, for like the Ashland Band
that was to be in attendance, they were
just d" no whar," if we except a single
fiddle that accompanied a dozen people,
composing the Jackson delegation. All
told they did not amount to one
hundred. Such was the head and front
of the " unteriied' as presented to the
wondering Republic aus of Savannah.
They succeeded in raising a very band
some pole for which. we give them cred
it and we hope they will take great
glory in it as the pole will be all that
will be left of them after next Nov
Buck and Breck, Constitution and
Union" was the significant motto flung
to the breeze, and they gave a pure Blu
chauier demonstration of their devotion
to the Constitution and its guarantees
of inalienable rights in a base and ruff
ianly attack upon the property of an
of free thought. The Daguerrootype Car
of Mr.. james Wclch has occupied a
place upon the public square a sufficient
length of time to give it q " local habita
ton and q name" It was asked as a
privilege by the Democracy, that
they might be allowed to erect their
platform upon the shady side of said car.
The privilege was co~urteously granted
but in doing Sd he surrendered no righs
to act with his own property as he saw
fit. He chose therefore to hang out a
Republican flag through the sky-light
of his car the moment that this was
done the ruiian spirit was predominant
trheats were made that if the flag was
not instantly hauled in they would demol.
ish the car aud scatter the splinters in
abe streets and swore that they would
" wade ankle deep in blood" before that
simple emblem of freedom should stream
in the free wild winds. Such an exhi-
bition proves better than any argument,
the identity of the sham democracy with
slavery extension and border rufianism
Atchison aud S:ringfeilow would, il
present, have recognized the boys as
''resulars "-----With three faiuI
cheers for Bark uid Breck and three foI

bill without the Proviso and the House,
under the operation of the previous
question, Immediately e%oneurred by a
vote Of 10l to 96 This result was
brought about, as VIC understand it, by
certain Black Republican members odg'
ing the question. In other words, they
paired off with certain Democratic mem
bers, and forgot to return. There was
great rejoicing among the Democrats
over their success. Congress adjourned
the same day.
