yr,,. u. w.

Our friend, Maj. D. w. Stanbaush, Of Tus-
rarawas county, is doing good service for the
Democracy during the present campaign. His
speeches have been received with great favor.
j. R. Knapp, Jr., Esq, the talented editor OF
the Perrysburgh (O.) Press, thus speaks OF Ma
Tor Stambaugh's effort in that place.
Mai. D. w. Stambaugh was next introduced
who made one Of the best speeches we have
heard for a long time. He has an excellent de-
livery and what is still more important, what
he says is pointed and decidedly spicy. We
will but him against any Republican now on
the stump. We always did admire a bold EN-
phatic and terless speaker; itserves to verve up
his hearers, by convincing them that he means
what he says, and that what he says is true to
the letter.
We wish it were possible for the Major to
speak in every county in Ohio this fall lfhe
could, the Democratic majority in Ohio this fall
would be largely increased.

The Republican Meeting

On last Wednesday, was pretty well attended,
1t was an excellent day for a meeting. Farmers
had bat little to do; and they thought they
would come to town and hear what genuine re-
publicanism was. We should judge there were
about 500 persons present, one third Of whom
were Democrats and ladies.
Tee speakers were Hons. B. F. Wade, b.. :.
Cowen and John A.. Bingham. Senator Wade
gave, his audience genuine negro-equality re-
publicanism. Judge Cowen said but little
J. A. Bingham commenced on a new vein, and
was astonishing his hearers; but before he had
spoken ten minutes, he was repeating "tha'
same old speech"
Not a cheer was heard during the whole
meeting. The larger portion of the people
seemed to pay but little attention to what wat
being said. Thus ended the republican meet

Not so Hard After All.

A Boston correspondent of a Republican pa
per, himself an intense Republican, speaking Of
of the next presidential nomination, says:
1.-The very delicate job of constructing plat
form for the Republican party which shall ac-
commodate John Bell and William H.. Seward,
Carl Schurz, and Gov, Banks, Tom Corwin and
Charles Sumner, Eli Thayer and Joshua R.
Giddings, will require great attention"
A platform that would accommodate all the
Opposition would not be so bard a matter after
all. Knowing, as we do, the governing moti!e,
we could give them one that would suit al
classes, colors and conditions. AS for Instance;
WHEREAS, the Locofocos have held all the off.
aes for many years, and the sufterings of the
Opposition as int lerable, therefore
LIST. Resolvea, That we want office.
I'd. Reso'ued, That we must have office.
3D.. RESOLVED, That we will fight for office.
4th. RESOLVED, That animated by the love o
Office and the hope Of office, we will battle the
Locofocos to the death, varying our opinions tt
suit each latitude, where Office is to be had.
9Th. Resolved, That, as opponents of the De.
mocracy. we know no East, no West--no North
no South, and nothing else" but office.
9th. Reso1Ded, That as Republicans, Know
Nothings-Free Sellers and Abolitionists, We
prefer offices which yield the greatest amount
of pay for the least work.
7h. RsSol,e9, That look ny to the good o
ourselves, we demand office and are determined
to have Office, as without office we find it hare
to live, and still harder to die.
Here is a platform that tells the whole truth
and nothing but the truth, and every fragmen'
of the Opposition will, if they tell the truth
say amen to it.-Ndt. Dem.

Can't be Neutral when Corruption
Stalks AhrOod In the Land


The Urbanna Free Pres, started a little over
one year ago as a neutral sheet, has dropped its
neutral garb, and it comes to US with the Dem
Ocratic State Ticket flying at its head. In CIV
ing the reasons for the change, the Editors say:
OuR PosITroN.-When we commenced the
publication OF the Free Press, it was our aim to
establish a journal that would have no connec-
ton with any of the political organizations Of
the day, and thus far we have followed up that
policy, and had but little TO do with them or
those connected with them. But when We see
false sentiments advocated, able and experienced
men prescribed for rendering an honest judi
cial decision, and resistance to laws preached
and practiced, Gas has been the course Of the
Republican party,) thus jeopardizing the peace
and safety Of society, we feel called upon to
laysaside our neutrality, and oppose and de-
nounce such ruinous sentiments and practices,
and to use every honorable means in our power
to defeat those who seek to carry them out. It
is our purpose hereafter to advocate those meas.
ures that we believe to be right and are best
calculated to secure the prace, safety and well
being OF the whole country-to uphold, defend
and abide by the Constitution and laws of our
country, no matter into what party such a
course may lead us.
The Democracy are now occupying the only
true and commendable position with regard to
observation of Law, promotion OF the interests
of our country. and the general welfare of our
people, and so long as they continue in this
way we will cheerfully cooperate with them.
Knowing the editors as we do, we gladly hail
the Free Press as an accession to the cause Of
the country AGAINST the factionists who. while
ruling, would ruin it.-Nat. Dem.
