Base Lies.

Whenever you hear Buchaneer assert,
as does the Editor Of the Hindicdtor this
week, that the Republicans are disunion-
lists. and that the avowed purpose Of
their leaders sis disunion with the slave
holding States and the establishment Of q
Northern Republic" set him down as a
base falsifer.
Whenever you hear Buchaneer as
sert, as does the Editor of the Viadicotor
this week, that the Republicans voted
to legalze slavery in Kansas until 1858, "
set him down as a brazen liar.
Whenever you hear Buchaneer as
sert, as does the Editor of the Vindicat0r

gress "vo:ed for bill which recognizes
the validity and binding force of all the
laws enacted by the territorial legisla-

knave.
Whenever you hesr Buchaneer as

Remember.

Voters Of Wyandot, that the Republi-
cans in Congress voted for Dunn's Bill,
which restored the Missouri Compromise
Line, and under which Kansas would
have become Free State; and that the
Buchanan members voted in body
against it.
Remember, that the lying. hypocrital
BUCCANEERS, who charge the Republicans
with opposing the restoration of the Mis-
souri, Line, now denounce them for vo-
ting to restore it.
Brand these political hypocrites and
knaves at the ballot box on Tuesday.
Remember that Dunn's Bill contained
a section sweeping away the Bogus laws
of Kansas, and that the BUCCANEERS. by
opposing that bill. voted to continue those
disgraceful laws.
Remember, ye landless poor men, tha
under Dunn's Bill you could have enter.
ed up farms in Kansas at five cents at
acre, but the BUCCANEERS defeated tht
bill

The bill introduced into the Senate by
Mr.. Crittenden, of Kentucky, providing
for the repeal of those odious Kansas
laws which Cass. Weller and Houston
denounced, was tabled by the following
vote:
YEAs-Adams, Al len, Bayard, Bright,
Brodhead, Brown, Butler. Clay, Doug
las, Geyer, Houston, Hunter, Iverson,
Jones of Tennessee, Mason, Pratt, PUGH
Reid Toucey, Weller and Wright.
Every one of them supporters Of Bu-
chanan except Houston.
Now read the vote against laying the
bill on the table:
Nays Bell, of Tennessee, Crittenden,
Durkee, Foote, Harlan, Seward, Thomp-
son, of Kentucky, Trumbull, Wade and
Wilson
All Fremont Senators but three.
Now let every man in the country
mark well and digest the foregoing fact
The Cincinnati Gazette well remarks that
it is worth more as an evidence of the
true character of the Black Democracy
than all the speeches and assertions o
their candidates and leaders. Every
candidate of the Black Democracy i:
bound hand and foot to the support Of the
Kansas policy of the Administration. and
any man who says differently, asserts
what he knows to be utterly and abso
lutely false.

s. Feeling Awful GoOd!,,

The Vindicator man ran out Of town te
avoid witnessing our great Convention
but comes home and proclaims it "a fz
zle," and says the Democrats feel aw
full good !! - No doubt with our vera
cious neighbor, the wish is father to the
thought. He wishes his brethren who
staid at home and saw thatimposing dem
onstration OF the People of Wyandot did
sc feel good.''
Early on Tuesday morning we discov-
cred some of the Buchanan understrap

they came, but when the big procession
began its march, Buccaneers were a
scarce commodity. They had crawled
into their holes, and taken their holes in
after them. We have heard but little
Buchaneer bloviation since the meeting.

How They Vote.

Judge Hall, being pledged to sustain
the Black Democracy in all their iniqui-
ties, it is well enough to remember what
you are voting for in voting for him.
They vote to pronounce Jefferson's pro
viso UNCONSTITUTIONAL.
They vote to LEGALIZE SLAVERY
in all the Western territories, and promise
to the slave breeders protection for their
chattle property in all the West.
They vote to protect and foster NOR
MONISM and to tolerate system of
CONCUBINAGE so base that even saw
ages abhorit.
They vote to raise AN ARMY to en-
force the claws of the Missouri pirates
AGAINST two thirds the actual settlers OF
Kansas.
They vote to sustain the decision oi
Judge Lecompte and the outrages OF
Sheriff Jones in mobbing free presses,
and destroying every newspaper press
which dares sustain the rights of poo,
laborer against the despotism of an aris
tocracy.
They vote with TOOMBS and for hi.
measures the man who say.
his policy will empower him to "call th'
roll of his slaves on Bunker Hill monu
ment, and lash them through the corn
fields of Ohio"
Every reader knows that what W.
charge is true. Are you willing to Civ
your aid to such measures

Still Barking.

This weeks Vindicator makes another
furious onslaught upon the "empty
hole" That lying sheet says we have
not done {. anything more than deny the
charge" of Fremont's Romanism. The
Editor knew he was lying when he penned
that sentence. We produced the most
overwhelming testimony to prove that
Fremont is, and always has been, Pro
testant. Yet, that dirty, scurrillous,
mendacious sheet suppresses this testimo-
ny, and reiterates the exploded statements
Of Fulmer and Cook-statements which
their authors have been compelled to
back out of.
So clear is the proof of Fremont's Pro-
testantism, that nobody but knaves con-
tinue to assert that he is Catholic, and
nobody but fools believe it.

great orator ever made more telling
speech. At the other stand, Messrs. De-
lano and Watson done the speaking, and
both acquitted themselves credita5ly, and
rendered our cause good service. AS be
fore remarked, we cannot notice the va
rous striking features of this great meet
ing in detail One of the banners, how
ever, was particularly unique. 1t was
representation of Mr.. Buchanan lying in
a horizontal position across the backs Of
Benton, Pierce and Prince John, with a
STAKEHOLDER snugly mounted on his breast
and bis negro slave sitting on his limbs;
Buchanan is saying, "Iam no longer James
Buchanan, but tile PLATFORM" Pierce is
looking curiously at Old Bullion, inquir-
ing why he is "down" on his administra-
ton, yet supports the platform ;" the
Southerner "don't care d--n what the
platform is made of, SO it supports me
and my niggers y while, standing at
one side, is Jonathan, cau;ioning Mr.. Mig
ger-driver that the platform is insecure.
1t was we'll got up. A couple of speci-
mems of the genus Border Rufian. rode
in the procession and caused much amuse
ment.
The large number in attendance at the
convention, and the genuine enthusiasm
manifested, satisfied us that the freemen
of Little Wyandot are fully aroused to
the Importance of the contest, and are
prepared to do their whole duty.

at the Vindscator Office, and the latter by

that office. Mr.. Whitley is the Locofoco

to vote for Locofoco candidates? Or is
this a scheme of few of the leaders to

ANCIENT REMAINS IN CALIFORNIA
Elisha Hughes, in letter from Santa
Clara, California, to the Scientific Ameri-
can, gives the following account of some
old ruins recently discovered:
| recently had an opportunity of exam
lnlng some ancient ruins, lately discov-
cred about six miles East of Santa Cruz.
They were nearly buried up in sand HILL
L found twenty-three chimneys with their
tops peering above ground. These Chin
neys are round, and vary in diameter from
four to twelve inches. They are made of
sandstone, and filed up with loose red
sand. The stones of which they are built
are cut circular, and cemented together.
| stamped on the hill, and it emitted
hollow sound indicating vaulted chambers
below. A tunnel is now being run in
under the hill at first it was attempted
to sink, a shaft, but the sand came in too
fast upon the miners. Who built these
structures, no one can imagine. They
appear to be thousands of years DID, A
large yellow pine was growing on the top
Of the hill. The number of years re-
quired for the sand to cover up these
houses and form the hill, before the seed
of this large tree terminated, could not
be less than 5000 years.

LiAO oOCelH winch you HcdI, SdlO our nos
tess as we lifted from the centre-table
beautiful shell and placed it to our ear
1t is true there was low mumur, like the
roar of the far-off seas, rising and falling.
as if borne to the ear upon waves of air:
now clear and distinct as the dash on the
beach, and again, low and tremulous as
the dying winds We closed our eyes and
listened to the murmur of the she'll AS
we listened we dreamed. We stood on
the beach as it stretched away, the restless
swell curling with foam, and dashing
YEARLY upon the sands. Solemn, almost
sad was the murmuring anthem which
sobbed on the still air. 1t is sublime
scene-..the ocean, The tArobbing pulse
of the mighty element beats slowly at your
feet
Ten thousand fleets have swept over
thee in vain, for as far as the eye can see,
there is not a track where their keelshave
been. 1t is a trackless waste. Not even
a cross is seen to mark the spot where
crime has been There areno monuments
where thousands have been laid down in
the yielding waves Where are the gal
liant fabrics which have sunk in the ''deep,
deep sea? Where did the gloomy pillows
open to the ill-fated President"
There was the gallant Arctic, steaming
homeward under full sail, and warm hearts
beating faster under her deck at the
thought of green hills, soon to rise from
the waters But the shock came, and fast
the remorseless waters rushed into the
ill-fated steamer. Slowly, like the march
of fate, the huge fabric sank. One wall
went up to God, and downward went the
Arctic with her living freight, with sail
set. Secure from storm and decay, she is
anchored beneath the sullen waters. Her
sails are filed by the dark green waves as
they ebb and flow. No smoke curls from
her chimney tops, for her great heart has
ceased to throb Undisturbed, the dead
ones still rest upon the slippery deck
Holland is still by the side of his gun,
match in hand The womanly locks float
out in the waters, and the damp cheek
rests cold and still in the clasped hands.
Manly faces look up sternly among the
shrouds. The stripes and stars, and the
cross of St. George lift wearily in the ebb
and flow of the tide And wherever there
is heart which longs for the loved ones
under the waves, the she'll will bring Sob
bing mumurs to that heart
Thickly strewn are the dwellers on the
ocean bed. Its sleeps, and wales, and
deep dark glens, are all peopled But
they dwell in peace. The march or fall of
empires is not heard. Rust has gathered
on blade and in the cannon's mouth
The inhabitants of the deep, gambol un-
harmed about the battle-craft, whose oaken
ribs have shivered with deadly broadsides
No monument on the ocean. Man has
piled the earth with the structures of his
genius and ambition Earth's greatness
is commemorated in marble and upon can
vas. But the sea has no tale to tell Far
down and unseen are the monument build
ers, the coral; and the waves, as they
throb to the shore, bear no record of the
dead
Neither has the shell word from the
ocean sleepers. 1t murmurs only of the
whispering winds and waves. So
