'Tired Of begging living, and with sup
reme con'emp. for ultra Black Republican
ism and Black Republican devils, with this
number we close our connection with THE
paper. Hating tyranny over the mind Of man
in every form, and longing 10 become a fiee
man, with a free conscience and free pen
we surrender the edi,orialchaif ofihe Juniata
Sentinel into other hands whose organic mu-
sic we trust shall be more acceptable 10 the
party and persons before stated. We have tax.
en- this step after mature deliberation, not that
we are afraid to avow and maintain true
American doctrines in the face Of Mira Black
Republicans, hermaph.odite Americans and
political Summer.sauiters generally, but that
we may avoid an unpleasant, undesirable
and bitter conhic. ia the present canvass
Our chief object in exposing the hollowness
of Republicanism in profession, and Its an.
tagonism TO American principles was for the
good Of party, and we tell those who took
such great offence at us for 80 doing that
they will find they are not yet quite the
| Whole people, for there are others who have
opinions as we'll as themselves, and before
this cam paign is over they will find "Jordaa
a hard road 10 travel" We tell them, TOO,
tina, there are from two to three hundred
votes in this county that they cannot inRu-
ence by the means they have employed
against ne.
This is the only time, in our editorial ca
reer, in which we have taken leave Of
people under a political difficulty, but we are
happy 10 know that tina, difficulty Is confined
to few political Bleeding Kansas blood
suckers. They weep, they groan over the
wrongs heaped upon the unfortunate people
cf that territory, in the loss Of free suffrage,
free thought and free press, through the in-
s,rumen,ali,y of Border Ruffianism, and yet
/ when the truth oil their own iniquities is
brought home to their door, they become as
ruffianly and oppressive ~ their prototypes
from the border counties Of Missouri. We
need not 60 10 Kansas for rufFianisn, but vs
Gan find it even in little Juniata. Il would
be we'll for gentlemen 10 preserve little con-
sistency. We hold the Liberty of speech
and the freedom of the press sacred, and he
who would take away these things strikes as
the very foundation OF our Republican Iasti-
iulions; he carries with him heart as irsaeh-
erous and hand as viilainous as him who
received the thirty pieces Of silver. Those
TO whom we apply these remarks can under
stand them.
| The Republican party, under lie present
constituted leaders, Is the meanest party with
which we have ever had anything TO do.
Without prudence or discretion II rushea
madly into extremes, and renders itself so
obnoxious 10 all liberal minded people, that
sunion Of the opposition elements becomes
an utter impossibility. 1t win not waive
single point Of its radicalism for the sake Of
union with men who are as hostile to the exc
| tension Of slavery ss there is any necessity
for. It's whole hietory proves this, and Il only
uses the American party as tool to enable
J ultra Repubicanism TO gain place and pow
er, that, at length, il may stab the principles
Of Americanism in the high places Of the
county. This !. has already done, and We
have no guarantee that any better fate can
be expected from Il in the future. Then why
should Americans lend themselves 10 he
schemes and designs Of party, possessed
of SO much bitterness, aniagonism and mock
sincerityi Others may do as they please,
bot we cannot remain silent and psrmi, our.
selves to be transferred, by mere platforms
aud ipse dixits, TO enemies, without voice
in the matter. There never can be but lwo
great and successful parties 10 this country.
one Of which, must Of necessity, be the
Democratic party, on account Of its radical
tendencies. The other must be composed
of the conservative clemens outside Of that
party. The old Wing party was The best
check that Democracy has ever had, or svsr
will have.for some time 10 come, as inthe
present condition of things We look for sue
