are built with the property to which wei
haye, at least, an equal claim, and yhose
citizens, under federal favor, are exempt
from the taxes by which we are oppressed,
under decree Of the democratic party
Look at the sons Of the South, vainly
struggling for an equilibrium Of poli-
teal power, and the preservation of their
institutions against alien and negro suf-
frage-struggling for peace and prosperity,
and confding in that party which has SO
long deceived and betrayed them. The
marks Of age and imbecelity are stamped
upon the whole South, whilst constantly
renovating youth and vigor are charac-
teristics Of the North--the dotage of the
one, and Tho youthful energy of the other,
being the legitimate result of democratic
Ipolicy.
| What does it profit the South, that Con-
gross has recognized the doctrine of nom
intervention, since democracy has crushed
it under the weight of squatter sovereignty?
What does it avail the institution Of the
South, that the Supreme Court has decided
that negroes can not become citizens, since
democracy has actually made them citizens
| by act Congress? What avails the inherent
right of every people to govern themselves,
since democracy has declared, by act of
Congress, that the native of every other
government, is equal to the native of this,
in political rights? When nativity ceases
to confer. any privileges, patriotism ceases
to exist. When natural right confers no
claim to the land which gave US birth-no
peculiar protection from the government
we have reared, loyalty ceases to be
virtue, or duty, and citizenship ceases to
be an honor.
We shall be told that there is nothing
in the democratic platform that justifes
these charges against Tx party. Wecare not
whether this be true or false-with their
creed, we have nothing to do, when con-
sidering their acts-by which, alone, they
must be judged They are guilty of the
crimes charged upon them, and no honest
jury will suffer them to take shelter from
punishment behind a platform which is,
at best, but fimsy humbug--a city of
refuge from public justice. We have
stated nothing but facts, and earnestly beg
the people of Tennessee to look calmly
and dispassionately at them. The records
ofthe country is the proofwe offer, sustained,
as it is, by the effects everywhere visible
around us-Visiblc in the poverty of the
South and the wealth and power of the
North, visible in the sectional discord that
mars the harmony of the Union, and
visible in the repaid deterioration of public
morals, and the increase of crime and
anarchy. Visible in an overshadowing
foreign power in our midst, and in the
trucking spirit that sacrafces to that
power our dearest rights as nation, and
the only safeguard of the South.

can learn, were never surpassed in album

DECISION In THE HABEAs Corpus OF
THE U. S. MARsHAL.--The Cincinnati
papers of yesterday contain the following
Judge Leavitt, of the United States
District Court, yesterday made a long and
able decision on the application of the
eleven United States Deputy Marshals who
had been arrested and were held in custo-
dy the by sheriff of Clarke county Ohio
1t is document which meets fully every
Question raised in this extraordinary case.
The right and authoritity of the United
States officers to resist and disregard all
State process, while engaged in the service
of the writs of the United States tri.
bunals; their duty to prevent, by any de-
gree of force, any interruption in the per-
Torrance of their duties; the exclusive
JURISDICTION of the United States Courts of
all matters arising under the act of Con-
gress providing for the reclamation OF
fugitives from labor; the violation Of the
sovereignty of the United States, which
would be involved in any attempt TO exc
cute ''the extraordinary" act of the Ohio
Legislature, giving the State Courts au-
thorlty to issue writs of habeas corpus
against all parties OBTAINING persons for
any cause, were most lucidly and ably ex-
posed.
Judge Leavitt unhesitatingly decided
that the Marshals were justified in resist
ing the service of the writ in the hands Of
Layton, and that no more force was used
than was necessary to overcome the VOL
enco of the Sheriff and his assistant He
saw nothing to censure or condemn in the
conduct of his officers.
He said that whatever prejudice might
exist in the community against the act Of
Congress relative to fugitives, it was the
duty of all good citizens to obey the law,
and il must be enforced. This duty the
obligations imposed by the Constitution,
the relations which the States had agreed
to bear to one another, were most eloquent
ly dwelt upon and illustrated
The conclusion of the decision was, that
the Deputy Marshals be released from the
custody of the sheriff of Clarke county.

Of suffrage upon free negro, why can it

Pile Salve has now been long enough be-
fore the public to have its merits fairly
tested; and from every onewho has given it
a trial, we hear of but one expression, that
it is indeed Crre. Every one who has
used it, experienced almost immediate re-
lief and speedy cure, result, in many
cases, long and diligently sought, but in
vain.
In a conversation with the Doctor few
days since in regard to his "Pile Salve,"
he made this remark; ''My Pile Salve, sir,
is cure--not palliative For twelve
years, it never failed in my hands, in cur
ing ecery case; and | ask no reputation for
it, beyond it's intrinsic merits What |

The Liver Pills of DR.. M'Lane were

They act with great certainty and regular

the dispersion of his disease, and is grad

effect is almost miraculoulous, frequently
experiencing immediate relief, after having
for months resOrted 10 drugs and medicines
of another description, in vain. Diseases
of the Liver are very common in this eouti-
try, and are often frightful in character.

thereby, be saved a world of misery.
