DEMOCRATIC STATE TICKET.
War-Chase's Message,

If any person is desirous Of fs,eing what
"tom. foolery" has done, by placing such a
fanatic as Salmon P. Chase in the Guber-
material chair Of Ohio, they are particularly
referred to the message Of this fanatic in a.
mother column.
Chsse's ambition aims higher than that
Of being Governor Of Ohio, and we suppose
that in his wild and crazy moments, when
he is imagining to himself that he is
"Presiient OF these ERE United States,
And rides upon the cellar doors,
Aud swings upon the gates,'
that the foolish document we have referred
to was concocted in his brain; and in the
same mood sent it to the Legislature. Wha1
right has he as Governor of Ohio, TO inter
fere in the domestic troubles. of Kansas?
None whatever; and no man, unless he is e;
ther knsve or ool. will say that he has
He has taken an oath to support the consti-
tuition of the United States. Has he moi vi
olated that oath? We leave that question
for every sensible jurist in the Sss!e to de-
eide. Their answer will be unanimous in
the affirmative.
Look at it still further. S. soon AS the
message vas read to the Legislature, up
jumps one Of Chase right hand bowers" !"
and offers a preamble and resolutions, that
there be FIVE regiments Of men raised to %
to Kansas; and that they be armed and e.
quipped and paid for tlvir services -
This resolution WIS offered at the instiga.
lion fthis fanatic Chase. Suppose there
woald be FIVE regiments Of men raised IN
Ohio. does these fanatics know how much it
would cost to keep that kind of an army six
months? It would take, nearly a' much
money as is paid for S:ate purposes into
the treasury Of Ohio in whole year. Aud
yet for the last twelve months we have heard
these same fanatics howlirg continually a.
bout high taxes.
| Such proceedings are disgrace to the
| great State Of Ohio--.he third State in the
Union. Through fanaticism she has elected
something they call man as her governor
C man who would involve not only his State
but the whole country in civil war. 70
the helish purpose of carrying cut his am
bilious designs. We refer his case to the
officers Of the Southern District Of Ohio, the
DISTRICT in whish iesides, and let them take
cognizauce ofhim, as an offender agans
the laws and constitution Of the United
States.

More of It.

The past month, that is from time Chase
was inauguratcd up to the present, has been
a great time to show the BEAUTIFUL effects
of 10 foolery. We FIRST had his inauIu
raj, then his war message; thirdly Gen.
Tolls resolution to raise five res imen's for
war purposes in Kansas, and now We have
on last Friday pettioa presented in the
Ohio Legislature, from Salem, CJumbiana
county, for the purpose of dissolv,ng the
Union. This document is signed by Isaac
Prescott as chairman, and Benjamin S. Jones
as secretary. |: WAS presented by Mas.
sachusett0 fanatic from Sammtt county,
who calls himself Dr. Jewett. 1t WAS
read. This was right enough. Then a
on Federal Relations. This gave rise to a
long debate, and the whole day was occupi
ed in its discussion. The motion finally
prevailed BY five Of a majority. And we re-
gret 10 say that our Representative. Hon
E. Clark, voted to refer it. This we regret,
because we thought Mr.. G. was man Of too
much good sense. to be founl in such
crowd. Bat ii is an old saying, and no
doubt true one, "thst evil Communications
corrupt good manners" and it is certainly
apple .be to his case Had our Sanator
given such vote it would not have surpri-
sed US, because he is fanatical enough to do
any thing.
This is one of the legitimate fruits of pla
cling abolitioulsm in power. Their honest
men presented this petition. Their Jerry
Sneak" will say whiningly that they are
opposed 10 it, while in their hearts they fa-
vor it. All aholitionism. all fanatcism tend 3
to this very thing--lhas of dissolving the
Union. Some of them may deny it, but
their honest men like Trescott or Jones,
tell US that they are in favor of it.
We shall publish their petition in our
next.

Mr.. Afford; "does she require food?"-
"No." was the reply, "there is wanted but
the material for her shroud-she is dead!"
She lied alone. sick and in want. In her
case no one had etftctually "visited the sick
