Anti-slavery bugle. [volume] (New-Lisbon, Ohio) 1845-1861, 1857-08-15

we re-assert the resolve of the Democratic Cenven-
ton of January 9Th 1854, p~ledging our next Dem.
cratic Legislature to carry it into effect, in word
and deed, as follows:
Resolved That the Independent treasury estab-
Ilished by the Democracy of the Union, after O con-
tinued struggle for years, has in its practical ope.
rations indicated and proven all that is claimed
for il by its warmest advocates, and that the De-
mocracy of Ohio are in favor Of the enactment by
the Legislature of Ohio of a system similar in its
principles, for the safe keeping and disbursements
of the public funds Of the State.
Seventh. That we are in favor of an economical
administration of the State and Federal Govern
ments, and that public policy demands at this time
the most efficient and thorough measure Of reform
in Ohio. in order to reduce the burdens of taxation
by restraining the operations of tho government
from projects Of public expenditures not necessary
or essential to strictly legitimate purposes, and
also by imposing salutary checks upon the abuse
of the taxing power in the hands of the local au-
thorities.
Eighth, Resolved, that Wm.H. Gibson and John
G.. Breslin, by their corrupt embezzlement of tho
public moneys merit, and we trust will receive, the
reward of iniquity within the walls of the Ohio
Penitentiary.
These resolutions were read twice, and voted
on separately. No word of comment or objection.
was offered on any, until the last one was read a
slight objection was made, but the Convention
seemed to be in a TEN pest,of excitement and make a
clean sweep, and adopt even that. The question
was put, and adopted almost unanimously.
After tho Nomination Mr.. Paine the nominee
for Governor come forward and proved himself
the shameless tool of the slave power by q speech
in support of the platform, in substance as fol-
lows.
MI. PAYNE's SPEECH.
Mr.. Payne, the nominee, was then joyfully in
D troduced by j. b. Steadman and the new candi-
date for Governor proceeded in a violent parti1an
way, to ridicule and denounce the present admin
istration of State affairs. Mr.. Payne said he ap-
S peaied before the Convention to accep, the honor
conferred upon him, and to return his thanks for
the distinguished proof of their confidence. He
) priced it more for it being conferred at a time
: when a nomination is not equivalent to an cleo
o ton. Now, success is Il prize not to be won with
f out effort. The issues of the approaching canvass
exceed in magnitude and value those of any pre-
ceeding election. The enemy is numerous, I'M
l. scrupulous and desperate. To meet them is to
2 enter upon an arduous conflict, in which blowe
are to be given and received. With pride ard
alacrity, for this reason, / accept the invitation to

proclaimed by the Cincinnati National Convention.

Is to the aRtt-Starery element Of the North, and occa-
e stoned the organization of the Republican or sec
e tional party, have been endorsed by the people in
i. the election Of President Buchanan.
= Under his administration Kansas, protected
;, alike from New England and the South, is work
ing out the peaceable fruits of righteousness. At
Il day not distant or doubtful, as from the begin
ming had been predicted, Kansas will he ad-
mitted into the galaxy of States, with a Free
State constitution by the votes Of her own people /;
abolishing, forever, slavery in her Mist, thus fur
nishing an application of practical Democratic
doctrines.
We take stand against the reasonable schemes
of our political opponents. The Republican Or
ganization has accomplished its destiny. 1t now
must be dismissed from the stage of action and
re Ohio comitted to her twin sister on the peaceful
- shores of Salt Lake.
They are to understand that the bred Scott de-
cision is to be an issue In the coming canvass, and
I'd that we are prepared to meet it on its merits
Mt So far it is good lap. The Supreme Court have
#. decided that a white man is superior to a black
D man, which is in accordance with history, and
it is sound law.
Z. Again, that Court has decided that a Slave ,a-
ic ken to a Free State and returned, is subject to
n freedom or slavery as the law of the State to which
he returns has enacted.
This now is the recognized law of this land and
England. These are the main points OF the decis.
sion, as to the remaining details, they are immateri
al, but in conformity with common sense. The
bred Scott decision is a sound and stable decision
no am no prophet, but predict that that party which
enters upon a crusade against it will have an exis
- tence as brief and a termination as inglorious as
ne that OF the Republican party. We have no longer
to look back on the past. We must go in with TIT
. spirit of our brethren, whose victories we have
- just rejoiced in. We must invade the enemies ter
ritory, must carry the war into Africa,
