The Burlington Gazette, tho ofhcial organ
OF the Buchanan Democracy Of Iowa, openly
proclaims that it does, and will until the pol!
closes, fight the death fight for Clagett, for
the purpose Of rRANPLlNa UPON THE REPUBLI-
GAN PARTY. Close on the heels Of that bitter
sentiment OF the Gazette is Lee county food
Democrats in every school district OF the
county, urging them to call out every vote Of
their friends for the purpose Of laying
"BLAcK RRFUBLlcANIsn Low FoRxvxR.' The
Buchanan leaders are everywhere raliying
their friends into line and giving them tho
word of commend TO vote every Democrat
candidate, under whatever name he runs, and

The following letter from Ex-Governor
GrimM has been handed to rs for publioa-'
Man. Il will be remembered that Governor
loSAted tho Insane Asylum.
DEAn 6sH: In answer to your Inquiries I
respond ~ follows;
III. No appropriation to tho Insane Asy-
lum has bsen made by the Gsnsrxl Assembly
since Mr.. II. II. Trimbls became member
of the Senate Of Iowa, that be has not voted
for, and he always voted Tor the highest
amount proposed.
End. Every report presented by the Com
missioners Of the Asylum vas drawn BY the
Hon. Ed. johnson, OF Lee county, who has,
until recently, BEEN the Secretary Of the
Board, and the whole work has been carried
forward under tho direction Of Henry Wins
low, ESQ.,, who 10 also Democrat.

1888, and which 10 almost valuslsss.
4th. The statement said TO DO made by
Messrs. Elwood and Trimble that the ex-
pense Of the Commissioners In procuring

and dollars, 10 . faisshood. The whole ex-
pense Of the Commissioners for this purpose
did not exceed twelve hundred dollars, in.
eluding plans, drawings, specifications, &C.,
&C., and their own expenses.
5th. The statement that the building when
completed will cost the State two millions oil
dollars, is equally groundless. The Super.
intendent and those much better qualified TO
Judge than Messrs. Trimble and Elwood, say
that it can be completed with the appropria-
ton already made.
9th. The building is no greater than the
Commissioners discovered Was necessary to
accommodate the number Of insane persons
in the State. See Judge Johnson's report
on this subject to the General Assembly.
7th. The statement that had anything to
do with the late action Of the Board Of equal.

We find that our exposure Of the abuse.

nection with the mule contracts, 10 producing
some anxiety in Washington. The court
clown, who grimaces through the columns Of
the Washington Union, tries to cover the COR

up from the common places Of literature.--

and planters Of this country, who find the
mule very useful animal, would hardly
agree with him; and We venture to say that
such knowledge has been more profitable in 4
pecuniary sense to Mr.. Floyd and his friends
than their knowledge OF science or polite lit

which We quote the following:
ssIn purity OF life and simplicity Of char
acinr, Mir. Sumner il an exemplary citizen
and statesman. His commanding presence

ment in passien; bis sonorous voice, his be-

sve speaker in the ssnate and on the tribune,
and bind his audience with the spell OF fasci
nation. Several Of his speeches have been
re-published in this country in various edi.
tions, and have been read BY Englishmen
more than those Of sny other American ora
tor. They unfold truths which appeal to the
primary and universal instincts Of human ma
ture, and, as such, address men Of Ill nations.
La this respect, ~ also 10 the luxuriAnce and
elaborate finish Of his style, he bears no in
considerable resemblance to Edmund Burke.

American statesman, We may add, alsp dis
cover : still further resemblance, which has
often been noticed.

We clip the following paragraph from ar
article in the Missouri Democrat and com
mand it to the attention of Ill our laborsrs
and mechanics. Remember that the De.
moorary advocate the doctrine Of the Dret
Scott opinion, extending slavery over all the
territory OF the United States:
We cannot too eftsa repeat that the ef.
fects OF slave labor can only be sean where
it has been for some time predominant
Many think that It can be made to cooperate
harmonionsly with free labor, either in sub
ordination or sphere OF its own. This ID
a deep and dangerous error. The two sys'
TENS are radically antagonistic. Wherever
slave labor preponderates freq labor il
crushed. When. railroad contracts are nov
let 10 South Carolina, il is expressly stipula.
ted that no white man shall be employed
The same thing il done wherever slave labor
abounds. All the iron works in Tennessee
and Kentucky are in the possession Of negro
operatives. The slave gangs have driven
the white men out Of the mines and furnA-
ces. The intrusion Of slave labor into the
trades 10 the Southern States has become 90
notorious that an anti -slavery sentiment il
rapidly developing itself among the mechan-
les and artisans, and this domestic disaffec-
ton is so serious that the oligsrchy have
found 1t necessary to propose plans for the
| removal OF the cause. The working men Of
St. Louis should ponder on these facts and
grapple with tho evil before it 10 too late

the emancipation question will have passed
when the workshops and foundries Of St
Louis are Africanised; and the process oil

silently, many Of the operatives themselves
being unconscious accessories.
