The Cadiz Democratic sentinel. [volume] (Cadiz, Ohio) 1854-1864, 1859-09-28
More Evidence.

1t has been asserted and proved to the salts
faction of every man who is willing to receive
and give fair weight to the truth, that it is the
design of the leading men of the Republican
party to place the negro on an equality with the
white man in Ohio in all that relates to politi-
cal privileges, and also in the privileges of the
Social circle. Political and social equality is
the great object of the Republican organization,
and those who are unwilling to go that doc
trine, who do not believe in commingling of
the races, ought at once to be cut loose from
the Republicans and aid the Democrats in their
overthrow, By no other means can they so ef-
fectually put their seal Of disapprobation and
condemnation on the plans and schemes Of the
Chases, Giddinsses, and all others of that school,
nor is it at all certain that by any other course
they can prevent the triumph of the principles
of Equality between the races which these men
design to establish.
Many men still deny that such is the object
Of the Republicans, and assert that if they
could believe 1t was, they would abandon the
party at once. Men who are still creduous,
who stand off and deny these dogmas of their
party, are wonderfully deluded and shamefully
dishonest. No fact is better attested, than that
Chase, Giddings, Dennison, Stone, Smyth,
Gholson, and the whole tribe are in favor Of
breaking down all barriers and putting the me-
gro on an equal civil, political and social equal
ity, with the white man in Ohio.
An old friend who resides in an adjoining
county, and whom we met some days ago in
this city, handed us pamphlet entitled the
" Constitution Of the albany Manual Labor hstii
tuition, TOGETHER WITH A STATEMENT OF ITS
PRINCIPLES, prospects and wants for 1862
In the constitution it is declared in article first
that it is the object of the institution "to BREAK
DOWN THE OPPRESSIVE DISTINCTION ON ACCOUNT
OF CASTE AND COLOR, and co,mteract both By e1-
ample and precept a spirit Of a,istocracy that Is
spreading itself throughout the land" The fourth
article Of the constitution says:-"none shall be
rendered ineligible to office, or refused adnttanct
as a student ON TERMS OF PERFECT EQUALITY
ON ACCOUNT OF CASTE, COLOR OR SEX" The
Trustees in their statement of principles boldly
affirm that they are opposed to the institution
of slavery, and hope "by counteracting the spir-
it Of caste, by example and precept; by supply
ing our common schools and academies with
competent teachers of right principles, so to
correct public opinion, that slavery-the bane
of our country--shall disappear before the light
of science and pure Christianity" The pam
phlet re ferred to contains many letters Of COM
mendation Of the Albany Manual Labor Uni
versity and the principles therein taught, from
which we extract the following from Gov
Chase and Joshua r. Giddings:
Rev. CABLE:--My Dear Sir: have no doubt
Of the value and utility Of such an institution
as it is proposed to make the Albany Manual
Labor University, wish it heartily abundant
success. 5. L. CHASE.
From the Information which possess in re-
lation to the Manual Labor School at Albany,
in Athens county Ohio, and the men engaged in
its formation, have no hesitation in commen.
ding it as worthy OF the attention of all friends
Of humanity. Very Respectfully,
&&a J. r. GIDDINGs.
