Dor" Now, what more do the Black Republicans want
What they desire is TO prevent the further extension

free labor" That is their sole object as avowed in tbs
platform of their party, and forth by all their ora
tors and presses None of them propose or desire TO in
erere with slavery in the States where Il exists Al
they propose or desire to do is TO exclude il from the
Territories of the Union and that is precisely what the
Democracy of Ohio propose and desire to do. Where
then is the difference between the Democracy of the
North and the Republicans of the Northg And why
should any Southern desire the of the for

States There is but little difference between them
The freedom of the Territories is what they aim at and
are struggling for, in common.
This being the ease, there is good reason why the

not willing to maintain their rights they should undoub
edly shun both Democracy and Black Republcanism
The Louisville Courier, able Democratic paper. re-
ferring the position of Judge RAnney the nominated
candidate Of the Democratic party Ohio for Governor
says that it will certainly deprive her of the sympathy
of the Southern Democracy, and adds
We regret that Jadsc Rannev has thus plseed himself
