The Buchanan County guardian. (Independence, Buchanan County, Iowa) 1858-1864, 1859-11-17
MORE REPUBLICAN VICTORIES !
Massachusetts, New York, Ne,r Jersey, Wiscon
sin and Kansas respond nobly to the
call of Freedom
Old Brown poor Capital!

EV Notwithstanding the desperate eff
forts made by the Democracy to turn the
big Virginia Scare" TO their own po-
litical account in the recent elections,
they have failed most signally in %convin-
cling the free sentiment Of the North, that
Republicans are traitors, or their princi-
Piles and party unworthy of confidence.
The old bugbear of abolitionism has lost
its effect, and the old cry of a dissolution
ofthe Union fails longer TO draw anti
slavery men from their duty-fails lon
ger to induce them to rally to the support
Of the pro-slavery oligarchy. The North
has now unanimously affixed her seal of
condemnation npon the party which has
~repudiated the principles and policy of
the Fathers of the Republic, and, in the
interest of Slavery, has adopted a new
chart, and headed the ship of State in
another direction from that which the
trainers of the Constitution sailed her
She has given evidence of her determin-
alton to place the ship in her old course
after the ontest of 1860, undeterred by
the threatenings, the grumblings, the
doleful representations of those who ia
vor the new path. A
Massachusetts, gives BANKS more than
5000 plurality over BUTLER, Democrat.
and more than 5000 over BUTLER and

about 1000 majority for Governor. The
