PAYNE PAvNr-ruL pTrEmNA.


Payne the Locofoco candidate for Cover
nor, is one Of the most INSCRIPTIONS dema-
gogues in the State. In his short political
career he has built up for himself a reputa-
tion truly unenviable, and which will tell
against him with tho people with deadly
effect. He has been on all sides of most of
the questions of the day, and has shown
himself unworthy of the confidence of an
honest people. We shall from time to
time, show Mr.. Payne up in his true char
acter, but for the present. we have room
only to give his position now on the fugitive
slave law, and his position on the same
measure six years ago. In his speech, ac-
cepting the nomination, he uses the follow
ing remarkable language:
This Union could not exist an hour without the sure.
ty Of the return Of fugves from slavery when claimed
he Black Republican party in violation Of their oath
to the Union have attempted to nuify these national
measures they have denied 10 foreign States the hosp
tay Of ais 20 shield their slaves. Have stven by
habeas con act TO denude the master Of slaves of
sister States Of his rights and to bring the State in cos
ion with the General Government This lisa virtual and
moral treason" 4
Our readers will observe by referring to-
the proceedings of the Senate of Ohio for
the year 1s50-51, that this traitor to Free
dom held precisely opposite views from those
entertained above. On page 9l2 Senate
Journal, we find the following resolution
introduced by Mr.. Pardee:
RssolUsd, That the law commonly called the fugitive
law being alaw that makes eEpars evidence conclusive of
the masters rights to recapture and return his slave;
that denies jury trial here eshere that provides for
the appointment OF petty officers to III that gives
double compensation TO find every claim sat up in favor
of the master and pays the expenses any case from the
public treasury receive the voluntary opera
ton Of our people, and ought therefore, to be repealed
This resolution passed the Senate by a
vote of 22 yeas, to 8 nays, and among those
% yeas, stands the name Of H. B. Payne.
Mr.. Payne was either dishonest then in his
anti-slavery sentiments, or he is playing the
demagogue now in protesting pro-slavery
doctrines. Take which horn you may, he
stands in very awkwark position before
the people.

Missouri Election.

The game of amended returns is being
put into operation in Missouri, and regu-
lar attempt is being made to defeat Rollins
by those frauds so familiar 10 the pro-slave-
ry Democracy. Whether they make out to
defeat the emancipation candidate Or not
matter which will not be decided except
by the official report, the significance of the
election remains the same. The fact that
the pro-slavcry candidate was beaten, or SO
nearly so as to be driven to fraudulent cleo
ton reports, remains to cheer the friends
iof Freedom.

All right. We have got you just where
we have been trying to get you for years.
The question at issue is now squarely before
the people, and we want you to toe the
mark. The Republican party arc opposed

Since the democratic organs have learned
that Breslin has given leg-bail, and left the
United States, they have changed their
tune. At first they claimed that he was at
home ready to meet any charges the 'black
republicans" might bring against him; that
he had Gibson's receipt for all the moneys
that had come into his hands, except what
was lost by depositing with with irresponsi-
BILE banks. Now, they say he left the coun-
try because if he staid here, these wicked
republicans would have arrested him, and
ho Being unable to give bail would have to
lie in Jail till court convenes in October next; {;
that as soon as court commences its session
it is his intention to como back and stand a
trial, when, they are convinced, he will be
honorably acquitted. This is all CANNON
Court does not convene till after the election,
and these leaders of modern democracy wish
to delude their followers till tho last mo-
ment that they may get all the votes pos
sible. 1t has now been definitely ascertain
ed that Breslin intends never to come back !;
that therc is no treaty with England where
by he can be brought back. With pros
pect of the penitentiary before him, and
$550,000 in his pocket, he thinks he had
better not come back. And we confess, If
we were in bis shoes, we should want to
keep wide gap between ourself and the
United States. 1t won't do to tell-that
Breslin is coming back-since the report
OF tho Treasury Investigating Committee.

TREASURY DEFALCATTON REPORT.
We have received a synopsis Of the Treas
ury Investigation Report, and will lay il be-
fore our readers in our next issue. The in.
vestigation was made by two republicans
and one democrat, and they all agree in the
report. II sustains Gibson in his statement
of the affair, and shows that Bresln was a
defaulter to the enormous amount Of over
NINE HUNDRED THOUSAND DOL
LARS, when Gibson come into Office, and
that Gibson has since collected over three
hundred thousand dollars Of him, Of this
amount making saving to the State of
that amount, which, otherwise, would have
been lost. So, in fact, while Gibson has ru-
inod his own fair reputation, by covering up
Breslin's defalcation, he has actually saved
to the people one-third Of the whole amount
stolen by the nigger catching democracy.
Tho report will speak for itself. We ask a
careful reading of it by every man in the
county. 1t will show soma things not
dreamed of in the philosophy Of the rank
and file Of the democracy.

A HARD SHELL The Peninsular,
of Tampa, Fla, is attaining Mum
chausenisb reputation as racontenr.
Its last comes under the head Of ''ac-
cidents, !" and runs thus:
I On Monday of this week, while
Capt. Parkiil vas returning to his
camp from this place, the horse his
servant "a strapping negro man) was
riding took frightand threw the rider.
The head of the negro,in bis descent,
struck the leg of Capt. Parkill's
horse, breaking it, when it (the ne
gro's head) glanced and struck a
tree on the side Of the road, peeling
off the bark for several feet. The
negro was stupefied for az instant,
but received no injury! 1t is sup
posed that be belongs to the hard
