Judge Wording, Of Racine, Wisconsin,
like Judge Doolittle, supporter Of Pierce
in '62, made his first speech for Fremont
on Thursday last. He is one Of the ablest
men in Wisconsin. Racine presents Strong,
Worden and Doolittle, as among her con-
tributions to Fremont's army from old line
Democrats - three Of the best men within
her berders.
We have no doubt but that Wor-
ding, Doolittle and Strong, and many
other Freesoilers in Wisconsin are fol
Framong. But what Of it They
were all opposed to the Democratic
Party in ls4s, and Strong has been
ever since that time. Doolittle stump
cd it, wherever he could get chance
in one or two counties in Western
New York in lS48 for Van Buren, and
Adams, and in 1852 he went forPierce
and to use favorite expression of his
"acquiesced in the Platform for the
time being" After President Pierce
had filled most Of the Goyernorships,
Judgeships, and District Attorneyships
etc, Doolittle began to surmise that
all was not RIGHT, So far as he Was con
cerned, and his Democracy sat heavily
upon him. Could his disaffection have
arisen from the fact that in dispensing
official tavors, he had been overlooked
by the President Such things have
happened, and poor Doolittle is but
human. 1t is Just as easy for some
persons to say or write one thing as
another, and We suppose the writer OF
the above extract is one Of that class,
for it is all CANNON to speak OF Wor-
ding AS zone Of the ablcst men in Wis
consin." He is reckoncd at home a.
being about a fair country Pettifogger,
and was elected County Judge in
Racine County because no one else
would have the office.
The Strong spoken OF above, we
presume is Marshall NJ. Strong, an old
settler in Wisconsin. He never acted
with the Democratic party except he
was to be Immediately benefited, and
has always been esteemed slippery. Ii
these are three of the best men with
in the borders" all we have to say
about it is, that vast many men OF
talents must have lately left Wiscon-
sin, for this worthy trio used to aver
age a long way below the BEST men Of
the State. But like Morgan" to
Thurlow Weed, these men will do TO
make an ado over just now, and after
the election they will be forgotten.
On this subject of "Old Line Dem
ocrats" supporting Fremont, the Yer
mont Patriot and State Gazette has
an excellent article which we copy:
IAN OLD LINE DEMOCRAT"
Pres dent Pierce did one foolish thing il
his life. He allowed himself to be elected
BY too large 4 majority. Everybody and
everything went in for him, and the conse-
auence was, he found on his hands, after
bis inaugural, most troublesome and bur.
densome set OF fellows. Men who had new
or cast democratic vote in their live be-
fore they went for him, who never had
been, and were not then, democrats, but
who had snuffed the spoils, voted for him,
and were prepared to slough of the moment
their wishes were not grati6ed, poured
down upon him like hungry wolves. The
NAV Of all this gang was not, Of course,
and Of course could not be satisfied and
the moment they ascertained this fact,
round they turned and berated the admins
tration they had helped into power. This
Get, never democrats, never anything but
federalists, and abolitionists, the Black
Republicans are using most literally in the
present canvass (; parading their names in
the public prints, and their datulent orato-
~ in public assemblages, az 'old line dem
ocrats Pr democrats Of the pursst water,
but who can't stand this administration | -
Now, the truth 10, the Black Republicans
cannot name = single man, whom they
claim - an old line democrat, now for Free
mont, who has not for years been suspected
Of treason to the party. Your Hamlin,
your Banks, your Trumhull, your Blair,
your Wilmot, your King, before their de-
lection, had long been pIodding treason, and
had long been suspected aud watched by
tue Democratic Party, and their dsssrtiol,
was an event long ago predicted % certain
TO happen. And yet for the saks a quilting
honest democrats. these men are paraded
before the people BY such democratic "
eeneefns o the NY. Tribune, % {" old

cradle sheet carrying disunion and treason
3 u country, that does not hold up to the
Ga1e OF Ito readers the name Of some " old
Use" democrat, who il just what be d
W0ys hes been, but Who cant 70 FOR Duehe.
