'hing human, humane, sncred and divine, shall be
perilled, sacrificed, crucifed, to achieve its object.
Nor was the beginning Of this drama Of deriis,
in your state Of Ohio; for weeks ago. Horace
Greedy had said in his Kansas Letters:
II apprehend that IL will be necessary for the
Republicans of Kansas, In view of the inveterate
Western prejudices of a large portion Of her popu-
lation. to concede, for the present, that the Right
oil Suffrage shall be exercised only by white males,
or men of European lineage, excluding, on ac-
count OF their imperfect moral and intellectual de-
velopments, Indians. Negroes, and their descen-
dants."
the same date, he said
"The party will speak for itself at the proper
time; but shall be willing and ready to support
such a nan as John Bell, or John NJ. Bolts, or,
DIETER STILL Edward Bates, upon a distinct and
open understanding that he WELD the power, not
to extend and fortify slavery, but to limit and res
trics it to the States where it is still cherished"
All three Of these thus named, are of the Slave
States, and all declare strongly in favor Of slavery.
but against its extension, unless the people of the
State or Territory will it.
In a late, lengthy letter from Mr.. Bolts, he says:
II will resort to all proper remedies to protect
and defend slavery where it exists, but l will mel.
Their insist in nor encourage any attempt to force
i. upon a reluctant people any where, and still less
will justify the use of the military power of the
country to establish it in any of the Territories
II it finds its way there by legitimate meals, it is
all well; but never by force, through any instru-
mentality of mine. l am myself a STAKEHOLDER,
and all the property my children have in the world
is slave property, Inherited from their mother; and
he who undertakes to connect my name, or my
opinion, with Abolitiorism, is either a knave or a
fool and not unfrequently both. And this is the
only answer l have to make to them. l have not
connected myself with any sectional party or
sectional question, and so help me God. l never
will"
Such are the political prospects of Anti-S~lavery
judged by its most popular and widely extended
organ, the New York Tribune, and Horace Greedy
its world-renowned Editor, and SO far as shown by
the present position of the Republican Party in
Northern Ohio. led on by one so illustrious as the
Hon. Joshua R.. Giddings. Our glorious watch.

the very first step towards improving his
lands; for they say, with truth, unless ditch
ed, the rains of the year will wash away
more than can be put back, But, nethwithss
withstanding, would only advocate ditch
ing when properly done, 'and or. this ground
alone. 1t has been my object in treating
the subject as I have, to cali the attention
to the fact, bitches act,' if;not op ssaenti6e
principles as I have contended, SO nearly al
lied, as to require construction in close con-
formity to them or they will fail; but If so
constructed, will as surely succeed sas,the
screw will act in modification ofthe plane.
This excellent system has, in places, been
almost defeated by its abuse. Men under,
take it without conforming to the;terms BY
which it may be accomplished, fail and then
CRY out, in all the confidence of wisdom
gained by experience, l triedit-humbug-
wont do! Nor will any thing else so inper-
fectly done. How would one stand, IN the
estimation of mechanic, who would, cut
the treads of a screw in such uncertain
windings that it could not be forced with.
out bursting the timbers, and then pronounce
ithumbug? Why, most likely, that mechanic
would excaim, like Justice Dogberry in the
play, "write him down for an ass"
In conclusion, l would say that l am a.
ware, this effort to prove not only the neces-
sity but success of ditching at this late day,
may be regarded as gratuitous and unneces-
sary by those who have, long since, had their
farms under the wholesome and protecting
influence of bitches. And to set myself
