TADPOLE SANDERS For the first
time in his life, the editor of the Davenport
Gazette has found something which he is un-
willing to give away. All through life he
has enjoyed the reputation of being willing
to barter all chances of salvation in the
world to come for the certainty of a shilling
in this; and it is not within the recollection
Of his most intimate friends that he ever
found anything that he was willing to part
with.
But now it is different-he is absolutely
willing to part with the euphonious and
high sounding title Of Tadpole. which the
Herald-desiring to soften the harshness of
such language as rogues. scamps, gallows
birds, villains, robbers, plunderers, DC, DC,
applied to himself and the few other indi-
viduals who constitute the Grimes, Morris
4 Co. faction.
No doubt the last enumerated titles would
better become these political scamps but
as the other distinguishes them from the
masses Of the Republican party. it is just as
we'll
Our quiet gentleman of the Gazette may
wriggle and twist as much as he plea ses-
he may be very willing to give away the
title, but as the race to which he belongs
retain its present color, he will find that it
will stick to him as tight as mortar to q
brick.-Du6uqae Express d. Herald.

Bold and startling Truth.

The bold truths uttered by Senator
Seward, during the late canvas, in the
State of New York, seem to have
alarmed the Pro-Slavery" democracy"
The following paragraph is denounced
by the Detroit Herald, the Administra-
ton organ, as dangerous abolition doc
trine. In our opinion it contains for
icble truth--one that will have to be
met sooner or later. The New York
Senator rightly comprehends the an
tagonism between Free and Slave la
Dor, and the mission of those who adj
vocate the success of the former. The
question is just what Mr.. Seward re-
presents it to be. Speaking of the col
lision of Free labor and the labor OF
the lash, he says: "Shall 1 tell you
what this collision means? They who
think that it is accidental, unnecessary
the work of interested or fanatical agi-
tators, and therefore ephemeral, mis-
take the case altogether. 1t is an ire
-pressible conflict between opposing and
enduring forces, and it means that the
United States must and will, sooner OF
later, become either entirely slave
holding nation, or be entirely a free
labor nation. Either the cotton and
rice fields of South Carolina, and the
sugar plantations of Louisiana will ul-
timately be titled by free labor, and
Charleston and New Orleans become
marts for legitimate merchandise alone
or else the rye fields and wheat fields
OF Massachusetts and New York must
again be surrendered by their farmers
to slave culture and to the production
of slaves, and Boston and New York
become once more markets for trade in
the bodies and souls of men. It is the
failure to apprehend this great truth,
that induces so many unsuccessful at
tempts at final compromise between the
slave and free States, and it is the exis-
tence of this great fact that renders all
such pretended compromises, when
made, vain and ephemeral.'

The REPUBLICAN PARTY. Senator
Steward closed a speech at large Re-
publican meeting In Rochester, on
Monday night, as follows:
The secret of its assured success
lies in that very characteristic which
in the mouths of scoffers constitutes q
great and lasting imbecility and re-
proach. 1t lies in the fact that it is
the party of one idea, but that idea is
a noble one-an idea that fills and ex-
pands all generous souls-the idea of
equality-the equality of all men before
human tribunals and human laws, as
they are all equal before the divine
tribunal and divine laws. / know and
you know that revolution has begun.
l know and all the world knows that
revolutions never 90 backward. TWEEN.
ty Senators and hundred Represen,
tatives proclaim boldly in Congress,
to-day, sentiments which not so many
men even in the free States dared to
utter in their own homes twenty wears
ago, while the government of the Uni,
ted States under the conduct of the
Democratic party has been all the time
surrendering one plain and castle after
another to slavery. The people of the
United States have been no less steadi-
ly and perseveringly gathering together
the forces with which to recover back
again all the fields and all the castles
which have been lost, and to confound
and overthrow by one decisive blow,
the betrayer of the constitution and Of
freedom forever" -

In conformity to a well-established custom,

to Almighty God.
On that day earnestly invite the good people Of
this State to assemble in their several places of
worship, and nuke public and grateful acknow-
ledgement of the goodness of Divine Providence,
which has brought us safely through another year
with blessings and mercies innumerable. Let us
be thankful for propitious seasons, in which the
fruits of the earth have been rlpened and been
gathered to supply our wants; for peace and tran
guilty; for the tolerance of free thought and free
discussion for the undated zeal which animates
our people to educate and enlighten, and thus
elevate and improve all classes /; for the love Of
liberty and the desire to perpetuate free institu-
tons which prevails; for the serious thought
which many have given to the duties they owe
their Maker and their fellow men, and which has
prompted the resolution "to do Justly, love mercy
and walk humbly before God" And let us earn
estly implore a continuance of the blessings which
have been showered so abundantly upon our favored
land. ,4i q 80 -nt IS
In witness whereof, have hereunto subscribed

TAKE CARE OF THETRUE MEN.-One
radical defect in the Republican party
of Michigan is, that it has not taken
care of its true working men. At best
it does not have much patronage, but
the little it does have, should go to
jealous working Republicans. 1t has
not been so formerly. 1t is in too
many cases, the drones who have
been fed. This is both injustice and
bad policy. 1t is injustice because
the men who create the power have a
right to share in its advantages, and il
is bad policy, because our success il
based upon the labor of the very men
whom we ALLEVIATE by failure to give
them proper: recognition. We, there
fore, put in our word in behalf of the
working men of the party. The
drones will do no better with patron
age than without, but the working
men with proper treatment, will do fol
