Fremont journal. [volume] (Fremont, Sandusky County [Ohio]) 1853-1866, 1858-10-01

On Friday afternoon last, Judge Carey
and r. p. Buckland addressed large num-
Der Of the people at the Meeting House in
Elmoro. The republicans of that township
will make good report of themselves on
the 18th.
On Saturday afternoon, about i5o ofthe
voters of Groon Springs together with a
largo number of ladies listened to political
speeches by Judge Carey, r. P. Buckland,
and Mr.. Hiland, who has lately returned
from Kansas.
On Saturday evening Judge Carey spoke
in the new Baptist Church, at Clyde. The
house being we'll filed both below and in
the gallery.
AT all of these places Judge Caroy was
received with pleasure and satisfaction, and
after he had seen and talked with the pco-
pie they were all moro strongly persuaded
that ho was the man to represent them in
the next Congress.
Fremont journal. [volume] (Fremont, Sandusky County [Ohio]) 1853-1866, 1858-10-01

Judge Caroy was advertised to speak
here on Saturday last, but the black leaders
had been TO tho State Fair whero they met
prominent Republican leaders from Sandus-
ky county. These men told them that
they lost votes by every speech Carey made
in Sandusky County. They say tho old
fellow is really in his dotago, and has no
idea Of public sentiment or feelng--that
he is an old fogy, entirely behind the times.
Quite number of Republicans in Sandusky
county are open in their hostility to Caroy,
and publicly declare that they will not vote
for an old imbocilc. The republicans here,
after learning these facts postponed in.
definitely thOir meeting, and we predict that
Judge Carey dare not como here and speak
His committee" will not let him !--Sencco
Advertiser.
So far as the above relates to Sandusky
county, there is not ONE WORD OF
TRUTH IN The article. Mr.. CAREY had
not made any speeches in this county before
the State Fair. The editor of the Advcr-
tiser knows, if he knows anything, that the
very opposite is true. Judge CAREY is a
good speaker, and his audiences always lis
ten with attention and profit to what he
says. II the people would sond such men
as JonN CAREY to Washington to do their
business no such villiany as the English
bill for which Hall voted would ever be On
acted. But William Armstrong, editor Of
tho Advertiser, being Buchanan postmas-
ter, and belonging to Hall and Buchanan, is
compelled to write and print the most un-
blushing falschoods that he may retain his
petty office and favor at coult. Political
truth and honest sentiments never had a
birthplace in his brain.

Democrats Read

WHAT TUE PRESIDENT SAID TO SENATOR
BRowN.-The Hon. A. G. Brown, of Mis-
sissippi, made speech at a barbecue, on
the 11th, at Hazlchurst, Miss. He avowod
the most extreme Southern doctrines, con-
tending that slavery and the Union would
not exist, that when the issue arose, he was
in favor Of disunion in behalf of Slavery
The Vicksburg Whig reports that which
the Governor said in regard to the Confer
ence Bill, as follows:
"He (Gov. Brown,) stated that he called
on the President before he left Washington,
and that Mr.. Buchanan assured him IN the
most positive and nneguivocal terms THAT
He WOULD APPOINT NO MAN TO
OFFICE WHO HELD THE OPINION
THAT KANSAS OUGHT TO BE AD-
MITTED BEFORE SHE HAS A POP
ULATION WHICH WOULD ENTITLE
HER TO A REPRESENTATIVE IN
CONGRESS, (aecordsng TO tie terms of
tile Conference JiH,) AND THAT HE
WOULD DECAPITATE EVERY OF
FICE-HOLDER WHO EXPRESSED
SUCH A BELIEF. Gov. Brown went on
to state that he regarded this as solemn
pledge on the part of Mr.. Buchanan, and
he believed he would stick to it. Whenev-
sr he (Gov. Brown,) plightcd his faith to
any man, he always stuck to it, AND HE
INTENDED TO HOLD Mr.. BUCHAN-
TO HIS DECLARATION"
In the above We SEQ just what course L.
W. HALL will pursue in Congress, should
he be reelected. The President declares
that the Conference is TO bc the rule to gov
ern the action of Democrats. When. l..
w. HALL tells tho people of this District
that he will vote for tho admission of Kan
sas next winter, he asserts that which he
WILL NOT and DARE NOT DO. Ho
only asks you to elect him, and when elect
ed HE WILL BETRAY YOU. Read
the above extract again. The only true
course for the people of this District is to
vote for JOHN CAREY, the farmer of Wy
andot, who will never deceive you.
Fremont journal. [volume] (Fremont, Sandusky County [Ohio]) 1853-1866, 1858-10-01
THE TRAITOR HALL.

Lot the question be put to Hall at every
point in the District, and by every pres,
kept standing till after the election.
WHY DID YOU VOTE LAST SESSION OF CON
GREss, TO KEEP KANSAS OUT OF THE UNION
TILL SHE has SUFFICIENT POPULATION FOR
REPRESENTATIVE IN CONGRESS.
When this is answered, or an answer re-
fused, then this other question:
WHY DO YOU NOW PLEDGE YOURSELF To
VOTE CONTRARY FROM THAT. AND CONTRARY
TO THE PRINCIPLES AND PLATFORM OF YOUR
PARTY. TO ADMIT KANSAS NEXT WINTER WITH
OUT REGARD TO HER POPULATION.
Hall is the servant Of the people, make
him answer, and let his answer come to the
eyes and ears of every voter in the District.
He has promised to visit this region again,
for tho especial purpose of damaging the
opposition. We suggest that he bring
along with him some testimonials of rep
utattion for truth and veracity, and good So
curity that no will do as he agrees, other
wise tho Republican, or any other party ex.
cept his own, will survive all his attacks.

Board OF Public works.

The editor Of the Cincinnati Gazette,
who is personally acquainted with both the
Democratic and Republican candidates for
the Board Of Public Works, thus saysl--
''on one side [domocratic] is a candidate
who has been Unidentified with that rascal,
updsrtakipg--tbo Middietown Dam--s
man whose skirts are covered all over with
corruption. On the other side is a man
with clean hands; against whose character

II is for the people to decide between these
two candidates. II under the circumstan.
ces mon will vote for the Canal Clique can

man, they must boar ths responsibility Of

How He CAME BY IT.-The republican
papers say that John Carey went to Wyan-
dot county a poor boy, and has amassed q
fortune. This is all truo enough, but thoy
neglect to state that he secured his riches
by cheating the Misunderstanding them use
less articles, among which was sire water, y
for large tracts ofland. That man deserves
great credit for the possession of wealth who
gloats over golden hoard unjustly obtained
from the poor aborigines of tho forest. 1t
is no doubt very convenient for man with
trading disposition like old Carov to be
situated so favorably to tribe of Indians,
who draw large sums Of money from gov
ernment and wero fond of showy trinkcts
and sire water." 1t is very bad wind
that blows nobody good. And what is one
mans meat is another mans poison. Some
men are exceedingly fortunate in being able
to take advantage Of the worst circum-
stances Bucyrus Forum.
We cut the above from tho Messenger.
Any man who knows JoHN CAREY and will
tell or give publicity to such story would
in our opinion, open his dead mothers grave
to purloin her shroud. 1t did not surprise
US to find it in the Messeager--in fact we
expected just such stories rs the above ia
emenate from that establishment-but tc
learn that thero was another sheet in thi,
district edited by Ming that would give
uttcrancc to such fool lie, was moro thar
we were prepared for. Any school boy who
has ever lived in the vicinity of tribe oi
Indians knows it to be lio. No individual
can buy an Indians lands; the general gov.
eminent alone possesses that privilege
We are poor, but will give any man one
hundred dollars who will substantiate the
assertion that JOHN CAREY ever sold an In
dian one drink of ..fre-,Oater." 1t can't
be done. We think our offer as safe as the
one made by the uncle.

Tho Administration view OF Popular
SOVerpI0pfv.

SOvcrciRntys
According to tho Washington Union
the Democratic doctrine Of popular Sow.
erciguty" is not now what it used to be.--
That paper defines il rs below, italics and
all -
Tho doctrine Of "Popuar Sovereignty
as laid down by tho Democratic party in
its whole advocacy of the Nobraska-Kan.
sas bill, and in its PRONUNCIATION of its plat
form of principles at Cincinnati, is, that
tho people Of Territory, al the time OF
framing a Consolation preparatory TO adj
mission ds State into the Union, and mol
before, have the power to form their domes.
tic institutions in their own way, neither
Congress nor any other authority having
the power TO Interfere, then or at any time
before, to forestall or control their action
This was the doctrine Of tho Democratic
party before the Dred Scott decision was
endorsed; and the decision was but CON
firmation Of the doctrine.
Senator Douglas, il seems, holds diff
feront doctrine, whereat the Union is very
indignant. After quoting a portion Of
Douglas reply to Lincon's question on
this point, the Union comments:-
The reader will discover from it TO his
surprise, that the author backs out from the
doctrine of the Nehraska-Kansas bill, aban-
dons the Cincinnati platform, and repudi-
ates the Dred Scott dccison and that he
does so by reasserting the odious SouATTER
SOVEREIGNTY doctrine in its most radica!
and obnoxious form.
What 'will now be said Of Judge Doug
las advocacy of the Drcd Scott decision,
and Of his soundness on the doctrines of the
Cincinnati platform, as confirmed by that
decisions He asserts the power of tran
sicnt squatters and their Legislature TO ex-
clude slavery from Territory. We do not
understand him to deny even the power of
Congress to exclude slavery from the Ter
ritorics. Logically he asserts this power
for Congress, though we do not find that he
does it in express words; for he claims the
power for the people and for the legislature
of the Territory, as "given" to them by
Congress in the Nebraska bill; and how
can Congress give power which it does
not itself possess?
Thus docs Judge Douglas boldly and un-
blushingly rcpudiale the Dred Scott deci-
sion.
Tho quarrel between tho Illinois Senator
and the Administration has fortunately cx-
posed the deception practiscd by the party
under tho spccious vagary of popular sover-
eignty. The Administration and its South
ern hackers who now control the Democrat
ic organization, have boon compelled to
show their hand. How do the rank and
flo of the Ohio Democracy like the idea of
supporting the doctrine that slavery exists
every where in the Territories, and cannot
be prohibited, either by tho people of the
Territories, or BY Congress? Are they pre-
pared to vote for such doctrinei

WHAT WILL HALL DOi

The following resolution was unanimous
ly adopted by tho recent Democratic State
Convention of Ohio:
Resoived, That in the future VIC are oppos-
cd to the admission of new State into tho
Union, until the population thereof shall
equal the ratio for representative ia Con
gress.
Every body knows what is meant by
"until tho population thereof shall equal tho
ratio for representative in congress-
1t means that Kansas shall not come int
the Union until she has population of 9S,.
$40. The Messenger keeps this posted il
capitals under its editorial head, and all th,
democratic papers in tho State indorse it
And yet the Messenger says Mr.. Hall pledg
es himselft to vote for tie admission of Kan
sGs vhsn she again presents herself withoul
reference to the number of her Inhabitants
Docs any man believe the Messenger hon
est when going for both these measures at
once. Its contortions arc enough to make
tiger litter, or scare a locomotive from the
track.
And as 70 L. w. Hall, is there demo
erat who has any confidence in what he says
when he tells them that he will disregard
this great, main plank in his platform p
No, not oael Hall will keep that resolu
ton, aud deesips his constitusnLs.
Hall will be ropudiated by the people i
they do their duty. II Hall is reelected
it viii be taken as an endorsement Of the
English bill-and the terms Of the English
bill will then be enforced by democracy
which is slavery.

TRUE AND FALSE DEmocRACY.

Many an honost man who has hitherto
voted with the democratic party, will pause
Mt this election aud inquire what he ought
TO do. Hero is man asking his vote who
calls himself democrat. Ho wants to be
sont back to congress. II is quite import
ant to inquire what bc did whom there; and
especially what he did in relation to that
great question which now agitatos the
American people, viz, whether slavery shall
extend itself into territory now frecl Ev-
cry candid man will say that tho answer Of
true democracy to this question must be, no
This government was not established TO OK
tend slavery. II never entered into the
minds Of its founders that slavery would ev-
sr pass tho bounds of the Statos in which
it then existed. They hoped that it would
soon be extinguished by that natural abhor-
encc, which must be created toward it in
the minds Of all who heartily embrace the
principles of liberty. But a new generation
arose. The breeding of slaves was found
to DO profitable. The raising of cotton and
sugar was equally so. The profits of slave
raising and slave driving could not be Civ
en- up. Though tho systcm of slavery is
well described as the sum of all villainies,
denying all the rights Of man; debasing all
white men who live by labor, and creating
in the states where it exists a race Of poor
white trash, moro despiscd than tho blacks
themselves; although the system impover-
ishes the whole to enrich few, and carries
ignorance, vice, and all iniquity in its train,
still the profits sancti6ed all, and men were
found to justify and even sustain it. These
men have had art and power enough to Sc
cure the control Of tho democratic party
Thoy have made it hercsy to be punished
with banishment from tho party and off
cial death, to deny that tho constitution
carries slavery into every territory of the
United States. No man can hold the
meancst postoffice in the romotest corner of
a northern state and deny this doctrine
Now we say hero comes man who ac-
knowledges his adherence to this accursed
doctrine which would carry slavery into ev-
territory of tho United States, and asks to
be sent back to congress. He wants to be
reelected that he may 60 to Washington
aud aid in fastening slavery on all our free
territory. He dare not stand up against
his party, and the will of his party is that
slavery and freedam shall have equal aid
from the general government, whid means
that slavery shall hare all tie chance and
all the aid. Witness tho struggle in Kan
sas, with 10000 free state men on one side
and the whole power of general govern
mont on the other. If then you want to
vote for sham democracy, vote for Hail.
But if you arc opposed to the extension of
slavery, trust him not.

The Seneca advertiser Of last week is
reeking with tho most abominable false.
hoods and ISLANDERS against Judge Carey,
the Republican candidate for Congress-
The reelection Of Hall cannot be advocated
upon the ground Of faithfulness TO his con-
stituents in tho previous congress, or upon
any surety of honesty in tho future dis
charge of duties. Hall has perur0d him
self before tho people, and the record is in
the hands of the voters Of the IXth district.
He is making pledges to the people which,
If reelected, he never intends to keep, but
will do as Mr.. Buchanan tells him; and
lastly, Hall is slandsring aud permitting
his minions TO slandor his opponent, Judge
Carey, whose character and reputation in
every respect is beyond reproach, while his
own is notoriously disrcpuiable.
