,ented a like ohanqe IN some uther Stntes-

vented a like change in some other States
The South, therefore gained nothing, and ex-
pectcd TO gain nothing by the repeal Of the
Missouri Compromise, except to remove re-
striction from them which they considered un-
constitutional and unjust. Even the State Of
Missouri does not sustain the Border Rufiians
On the contrary, in all quarters Of the State ex-
cept the extreme West the conduct Of those
who went from Missouri to fight and vote, had
been sternly reprobated. The bin which has
passed the Senate on this subject, also repro
bates this misconduct in the fullest manner. It's
passage by the House of Representatives could
not be doubtful ifa Presidential canvass were
not pending, with an interest on the part of the
Black Republicans to keepup agitation, warfare
and excitement, until the day of election. 1t
will be for the people then to decide, whether
those who seek to allay excitement shall be
warded, or those who keep itup for the worse
purposes of party. With Buchanan in the
Presidential chair-which we regard as settled
and certain-sect!onal agitation will be termi-
mated, and the country put in condition ofcom-
plete safety and prosperity.

A correspondent of the Statesman, writing
from Miami county, Ohio, says: $50 far as my
limited information extends in these diggins, the
bright side is up for the Democracy. The trea-
sonable dens of Know Nothingism and black Re
publicanism are being vacated by every honest,
patriotic citizen that has been boguled into them
When the bloody and REASONABLE flag of civil
war, cold blooded murder, assassination, treason
rebellion and disuaioa is so boldly unurled, the
honest and patriotic of all former cliques and
shades of politics can but join the party of peace
and of Union-the Democracy. Such is the
case here; so talk the honest farmers who gather
the golden haryest-so say the men of every
calling.
"Many of the better sort of Wings are boldly
out for Buchanan, breckenridge, and the Union
Of the more prominent, | may name the Hon.
VIM, j. Thomas and II. Sellers Esq, of the
Troy bar.
"Mr. Thomas was fayorably known in the
Ohio Senate, in the good old days when Wings
and Democrats We'd with each other as to which
party should do most for their country, only
quarrelng about the measures to effect the COM
mon end. He laboTed with Hitchcock, Anthony,
Green and others, but he wars on no man for
his religion, or because he does not come to A.
merica to be born. He is not ripe for civil war
onhs white brethren about the negro--he is
not ripe for treason or disunion. Such men
have no place but on the Democratic platform.
"Mcssrs, Thomas and Sellers will do good
work in Miami.
"For some time all the ismg in this township
were united in one Know Nothing den and ru-
leF as they willed. Some weeks since the latch
string of the den got loose, and in justices

feat if mistake not, many have v1naoosel the
den.

Allies OF England.

Just read the following:
"a hostile demonstration from England, al
this time, would not bemet by the anti-sIayery
men of the House with any preparations Of de-
fense. They declare that they would not vote
for dollar nor man to aid the Government il
its foreign difficulties, until the Kansas question
be adjusted to suit their views"
We are inclined to the belief that the 'Anti-
Slavery men, as they are called, would much
prefer aiding England in a war against the Uni
ted States than in voting supplies for defence

w asIihgtOn's Warning Voice to
the SlacA RepublicaMs!

| Gen. Washington, in his Farewell Address
thus warns the country against the Black Re-
publicans:
"The unity of government which constitutes
you one people is also now dear to you 1t is
justly so, for it is the main pillar in the edifcc
of your real indepcndance--th support of youl
| tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of youl
safety of your prosperity, Of that liberty you
80 highly prize Bat as it is easy to foresec
that from different quarters, much pains will
be taken, many articles employed to weaken
in your minds the convictions of this truth; as
this is the point in your political fortress against
which the batteries Of internal and external en-
emies will be most constantly and actively.
(thoagh often covertly and insidiously) directed
tits of infinite moment that you should proper
ly estimate the immense value of your National
Union to your collective and individual happi-
ness; that you should cherish cordial, habitual
and immoyablo attachment to it; accustoming
yourselves to speak of it as the palladium Of
your safety and prosperity watching for itspres-
eryation with jealous anxiety; discountenan-
cling whatever may suggesteven a suspicion that
it can, in any ctact be abandoned; and INDIG-
NANTLY FROWNING UPON EVERY
ATTEMPT TO ALLEVIATE ANY POR-
.TI0N OF OUR COUNTRY FROM THE
REST, OR TO ENFEEBBE THE SACRED
TIES WHICH NOW LINK TOGETHER
IT'S VARIOUS PARTS"
And then, speaking of sectional parties, such
as are now embodied and represented at New
York and Philadelphia, says:
"1n contemplating the cause which may dis
turb our Union, it occurs as a matter of seri
Gus concern, that any ground should hive been
furnished for characterizing parties by geograph
ical denominations-Nor Northern and Southern
Atlantic and Western; whence designing men
may endeav0r TO excite belief that there is
a real difference Of local interests and views
One Of the cxpedients ofparty to adqure infu-
ence within the particular districts is to misrep-
resent the opinions and aims of other districts.

the jealousies and heartburnings which spring
from those Misrepresentation; They tend to
render alien to each other those who ought to be
bound together by ffatcrnal affection,

Tax PAYERS.

cents on the hundred dollars to what you have
heretofore paid for State purposes? In other
words, how do you relish the idea Of paying
over THREE HUNDRED THOUSAND Doll

you hadt pay lastfall? Is this the way Fu-
sionism promised to Tighten your burthens? Is
this fulflment Of the boasted retrenchment

A Card from Joshua N. GidGings-a-
NaturRliZed Citizens take Notice.

%LtASGAk9 tIeeAS 4NO9hGFs
Joshua Il. Giddings, the great apostle of black
republicanism in this state, has written com
munication for the New York Tribune, upon the
dOings of the Philadelphia Convention, which is
deserving Of the notice of natuialized citizens
He says that the Black Republican organization
iellowships with both the adopted citizen and
the Know nothing, provided they agree on the
| Abolition question The black republicans or.
ganization according to Giddings, had just as
soon support Know Nothing for office as anv-
body else, with this qualification In conclu-
sion he said;
"These views led me to oppose the adoption
in committee, Of the latter clause in the last res
olution ofour platform, which feared would be
construed as rejecting upon the American ord.
er. have been constantly guided by these
principles of action. Many ofour candidates for
State offices in Ohio, in 1854, were members Of
the order, but they met with us in convention,
voted with us, and sustained our other candi-
dates, and we sustained them Lieutenant Gov
ernor Ford, a amcmber of the New York conven-
ton was voted FOR by nearly every Republican
in our State. twas on these principles, also,
that we so steadily and firmly sustained Mr..
Banks for Speaker, in the House of Representa-
tives, during nine weeks, balIottipg He was
member ofthe order, but had acted with the re-
publicans, and sustained the doctrines which we
upheld"
Such language needs no comment II shows
that no man who is really hostile to the proscrip-
tive tenets Of know nothingism-who is unwill-
ing to encourage, byiis vote, that anti American
hcresy--can stand upon the republican platform
by means of which leading members Of the order
obtain high places. 1t is an organization that
dares not, in its platform, "rcncct upon the A.
merican order" to use the language of Giddings
for fear that the latter would abandon it. Our
fellow citizens of German birth can sec from the
above the kind ofparty to which Recmeln Stall
10, Hassaurek, and other demagogues would sell
tiem--a party would reduce them below the ne
gro, in social and political position Gin. Elq.

'If He'll is as bad as Slavery it is uorse than

The opinion ora PoliticaI Friend

One of the Pennsylvania delegates in the
black republican convention had the manlincss
to take open and strong grounds against the
nomination Of Fremont. After stating that the
wings and conservatives of Pennsylvania could
not and would not vote for Fremont, he said:
"No, sir the people of Pennsylvania must
have man who is a statesman which Fremont
is not. They canpot recognize the fact that
Fremont lived ten days buried deep under a
snow drift, and that he planted the American
flag on the highest peak'of the Rocky noun
tains as special qualifications for the Presidency
of the United States. You talk of fantecedents;
why, sir, youinsult the intelligence Of the poo-
pie Of this great country when you insinuate
that they will BIT satisfied with stories of mere
adventure, as the friends Of your candidate plant
his pretensons upon.' e oH

FEOAY Will California Go!

FIX Gov McDougal, of California, answered
this interesting question at New York on the
Fourth Of July. He is fresh from the Pacific
coast He said-and listen 0 ye Frcmonters-
"Whon h6lcit California he had not heard
the nominations Of the Democratic, the Know
Nothing or the Abolition party and he was
never more astounled in his life than he was to
hear just before his arrival here, when the pilot
boarded their steamer; that Fremont was nomi-
mated by the republican party. He predicted
when this news reached California, such an OUT
| IcrywouId be raisel against the nomination that
Fremont would never claim to come from Cali
fornia again. It is claimed that Fremont was
a millionaire but he dare not go upon his Mari
Eposa claim. He, the speaker would not give
$500 for the whole claim. But small moity of
Of thepopulation In California would 60 for Fill
more and if his State did not give, at the com
ing election twice the number Of votes for the
Democratic candidate she had ever given before,
why then they might set him down as no pro-
phet"

3. The possession and ownership Of num-
