T0x C0RwIS, of Ohio was an old lice
Wing, and after the dissolution Of the re-
spectacle party with which he WAS connect
ed, be- remained several years 10 retirement
But the "Od lIoss having fed Tor many
years Ut the public crib was not satisfied to
remain 10 that state for the remainder OF
bis natural life, aud by being most lavish OF
his promises succeeded in getting upon the
Republican ticket, and being elected as
Representative to Congress from Ohio. But
Ton, being q good lawyer, knows that the
Fugitive Slave Law Is constitutional, and
holds that while the law exists IL should be
obeyed--and plainly says that men who
resist the laws Of Congress should be hung.
Ofcourse J@nuA H. GTDDISGs denies that
such doctrines as this are orthodox, but
goes for killing the Shareholder who goes

Here arc two Republican prophets ex.
pounding the Republican creed. GiDDiSos
is by far the Oldest. Indeed, he sits on
about the highest Republican seat. Who
has sounded louder trumpet Who il
held in greater veneration by Abolition

thus pronounce on Tons notions Of the iu.

4" blame you, not for your honest opinions,
but you have no right To say that such opinions
are entertained by the Republicans. A one
OF the Republican party, one who aided In It's
formation and has ever supported u, and with
due respect, declare them Anti Republican,
Anti Christian, opposed to the honor Of our
state, liberties OF the people. and the rights Of
mankind.
This is plain talk. Unless Ton CoRwiS
can make up his mind TO kill Shareholders,
JOSHUA says he cannot belong to the Re-
publican church JosnrA, in fact, goes so
far rs TO say to Ton: IL you speak Re-
publican sentiments We are not united

In this outrageous letter Mr.. GlppiSGs
cannot let Judge TAsFy alone, though he is
not quite SO stupid and laundering Us to say
that the Supreme Court have decided that
the negro has no natural right" The
Ohio blackguard puts il thus:
Tho Democratic party. under tho lead OF
Judge fancy, took issue upon this doctrine,
declaring that black men have no rights that
white men are bound to respect"
This ioul alschood has been so often ut
tered and published by the Abolition ora
tors and presses, that many innocent people
really believe that the sentiment constitutes
prominent doctrine enumerated in the bred
Scott decision, ard boldly assert that i, is
fully endorsed by the Democratic party,
We can only say that the language Of Judge
TANEy cannot he ~ tortured as 10 express
any sentiment, OF the kind alleged, and that
/, never has been 20 endorsed by the Demo
cratic party, and whenever il is uttered by
the Abolitiouis,s high or low, in brcches
