EDITOR JoURNAL:-In looking over the
Democrat Of last week. 1 find number Of
misstatements in regard to the result of the
elections held on last Monday. The Demo
crat claims all but four townships in the
county, as having given democratic MAORI
ties. The facts are, that Townsend, York.
and Green Creek, should be added to his
list of Republican townships. Townsend
gavc the Republicans Jortg,-sir majority
York elected Republican board of officers,
by majorities ranging from ten to forty
The candidates for Justice were both Repub-
lieans. Green Creek has elccted a Repub-
ican Justice by seventy majority, two Trus-
tees, Clerk, and one Constable. Thus you
will observe that the strongholds of Fusion
ism have not yet been taken. You will
find these strongholds of Fusionisrn, rolling
up large majorities for freedom next fall
The pro-slavery democrats in this place are
mourning over the defeat of their friends in
Fremont.
The merits and dement's of the new pa
per has been the principal topic of CONVEX
sation for the last three days in this place.
[ find it has many friends among the "Si-
mon Pure" Democrats, but many of the old
standby of the party shake their heads, and
say it will not do. 1t starts out with its
epithets, calling US "Blaek Republicans" &C.
Be it so. We have then in Ohio more than
100000 of full age, who are "Black Repub-
licans," and fully bent upon their purpose.
We were not aware that this was our name,
but we cannot be frightened from our pur-
poses, nor diverted from our fixed determi-
nation to PROSTATE the Slave Oligarchy, be-
cause Others, who hold different sentiments,
may choose to apply to US opprobrious
names. Yours, H.

Kenauehy,s second Insult to Ohio.

The .Sandusky Register says: ''The
owner of Margaret, the slave mother of the
Cincinnati tragedy, brought her back tc
Kentucky, last week; and on Friday, Sher-
iff Brashears, having sent two deputies to
arrest her, on Gov. Chase's requisition, they
were informed that she had been removed
by Mr.. Gaines orders the night before
Where she had gone no one knew, though
Mr. G.'s friends said he had only removed
her to his farm, to save the expense of keep
ing her in Jail; others said she had been
shipped South. The Sheriff Immediately
telegraphed the Sheriff of Louisville, (who
holds the original warrant from Gov, More
head, granted on the requisition of Gov.
Chase, to arrest her there, and had deputy
in readiness to go on for her. But he has
received no reply to his dispatch. As she
was taken out on Wednesday night there
is reason to apprehend that she had already
passed Louisville, and is now on her way to
New Orleans. Why Gaines brought Mar
garet back to Kentucky to send her away
again so soon, is a mystery. If it was to
keep his pledge technically, he has made
the matter infinitely worse thanit was be-
fore. The Cincinnati Gazette, from which
we have condensed the above statement of
the facts, in view of this dishononng of the
plighted faith both of the man Gaines and
of the commonwealth to whose laws he is,
or ought to be subject, makes this appropri-
ate comment:-'We have learned now, by
experience, what is that boasted comfy of
Kentucky, on which Judge Leavitt 50 earn
estly and seriously advised Ohio to rely"

Irish Yote in Chiearo.

The Chicago Tribune, Republican pa
per, gives the following description of the
manner in which the Irish Catholics of that
city undertake to ''rule America" What a
blessed thing foreign government must be
here in the United States? The scenes de-
scribed took place at therecent charter cleo
ton in that city. The Tribune says:-T0-
ledo Times.
The Irish poured into the city from all
the surrounding country, and voted. Hun
dreds of Catholic foreigners in Cook county
came to Chicago to help their countrymen.
Many of these vagabonds voted two and
three times each, going from one ward to
another. Drunken Irish sailors were known
to have voted as often as four times, under
assumed names, changing clothes for the
purpose. At the Seventh ward, Irish we're
seen, after having voted, fall into the ranks
and work their way up to the window and
vote again, while around the polls stood a
wild, excited mob of a thousand Cells
threatening death to all who opposed them.
Hundreds who were challenged and rejected
at the wards on the south side, swarmed
over to their eountrymen on the north side,
and there deposited their ballots. A great
many swore in their votes who were unnat-
uralizod, and when the Bible was held to
them, grasping it, they kissed their thumbs
instead of the holy book, and by this dodge
eased their tender consciences.

The Kansas Emigrants from Erie Co.

From letter received from Mr.. F. R.
Davis, enclosing the proceedings of the
meeting of emigrants at the Gibson House
published BY US last week, we make brief
extract, as of interest to the friends of the
gallant party who have gone "to help make
Kansas a free State"
"From the time that those of US from San
dusky landed at Shelby, until ten o'clock at
night there were accessions to our band, at
frequent stations along the line of railroad
to this city, (Cincinnati) Two of those
who Joined US were soldiers in the war Of
.I8I2. While their locks have grown gray,
and the once vigorous bodies with which
they confronted the enemy on the frontier
have grown old, their love for liberty re-
mains young and unfaded. 1t still blooms
with the freshness of immortal youth. One
Of these is Gen. Cole, of Huron Co. The
other, q forget his name,) is from Ashtabu-
la county. We are all in good spirits, and
expect to leave about eleven O'Clock, in tho
mail-boat, bound for Kansas There about
one hundred in our party. Please to state
that Mr. Wood will return next month to
Ohio and viii organize another party, as
many who dersire to emigrate to the new
State were not ready to take their departure
at the time we left" Sandlsky Register.

The Report of the Finance Committee of
the State Senate, not vet having been pub
lished; and several imperfect and one-sidsd
abstracts of it having been given BY parti-
zan papers, Mr.. Gibson has addressed note
to the State journal, dated the 18th inst,
in which he states that the Report @abounds
in errors, miSstatements and false concIu-
sionS," which he feels scaled upon to con-
tradict and explain" He says: II hope
this gross injustice to me has not proceeded
from any desire to do me q wrong, but as
sailed, as have been, in a place where 1
had not the right of defence, l have only
one course left. l shall, in few days, pre-
sent to the public detailed statement of
nv intercourse with this committee, togeth-
er with all the notes, statements, conversa-
tions and facts connected with their report,
so far as l am concerned. Conscious of no
wrong upon my own part, shall be ever
prompt to resent and expose a threatened
injury" We SOPHIE" that those who at
tempt to catch Gibson mapping" will find,
before they "bag" their prize, that they have
'caught Tartar" He is an equal match
for Kelley.-Registsr.

EFsGHFALUTTNi

The richest specimen of literary compo-
sition ,ghich we have seen in many a day is
the following which we take from the pros
pectus of the Messenger. To appreciate its
beauties, it should be carefully read, and in
wardly digested:
"At this time when n reasonable Con
gress is trampling under foot, the pillars of
our Republic, mutilating the works of JEFF
ferson and Jackson-a weak and imbecile
Legislature, of Ohio, whose chief glory IS its
ignorance and folly, are seeking coyertly
| Ty-e-o-u don't the dismemberment of the
Union-when those whose duty it was to
guard with fidelity, the great trusts eonfded
to their care, have suffered its fair fame to
be libelled-when would-be leaders hare
! fell bones of Kirkham lie still down and
worshipped the uncireumcised Suppose he
had been circumeised, what then! baal of
nti-Nebraskaism- denying the principles
of self-government--it Is the duty of every
democrat TO use his utmost endeavors to re-
trieve the reputation of Ohio by every hon
orable means in his power; and show the
country and the world, that the descendants
of a Washington, and myriad host of
bright names which illume the early history
of Democracy, are still true to the faith and
principles of the glorious heritage bequeath-
ed them by the old and tried veterans Of
Democracy"
With such great light and such teach
er, will not the democracy be nourished with
the true milk of the word; l. e., @tho prin-
ciples ofselfgovernment"-alias,b border ruff
fans, whiskey, Bowie knives, and revoIvers,
to 'crush out freedom from our Southwest
ern territories!
And now for their platform. The princi-
pies are to be strictly carried out l1oper the
ieff,) J and carefully deposited in the street:
"The Messenger will be always found
fighting in The ranks Of the party of the
Con4titution-with the party Of Equal
Rights TSag Nchts with the party of
Religious Liberty, and the opponents Of pro-
seript.on. 1t viii ever labor to maintain
the tree of American liberty, which was
planted by q Henry-nurtured hy the phi
losophy Of Franklin-defended by the ell
oquence of John Hancock-suStained by
the courage of a Carroll, and applied by the
wisdom of Monroe and Madison, from
the hand of the despoiler, and the foul touch
of the coward, who Judas-like, are betraying
it with a kiss"
And finally: ra
For the furtheranee and wide dissemina-
ton of true Democracy, it viii be published
every Friday morning. at one dollar and
fifty cents, per year, payable in advance,
which places it IN the grasp of every man
advocating pure union sentiments"
We imagine the famishing democracy
foeking in crowds to this new fountain,
whence shall flow such streams of light ard
truth.
