general application TO the campaign,
and the moral stencil arising under our
own nOatrils from the disgusting and
criminal occupation Of the sssYengeT IN
our midss, is bat an item in proof Of
the general facta stated
tsThs black republican presses Of the
State already team with disgusting evil
dsnees Of the fact that the present polis-
ioal campaign il 30 BIO characterized, on
their part, by the lowest species Of black
guardisua--by gross and wilful misEep-
RESERVATIONS Of faets--hy ISLANDERS upon
public and private ehaEaeteE-and By
ths employment Of language suitable
only to the lower depths OF human de-
graduation. Bankrupt in principle
driven from every position they have
ever assumed--ash&msd 30 acknowledge
themselves Abolisionisss, and yet afraid
to deny ia pack Of pirates drifting
about in tie ocean Of adventure-whai
motive have they TO elevate them above
the haser instincts Of 3 mean nature and
worse breeding ? what have they to rely
upon for success but falsehood, the main
Weapon Of deceit, and the unspaEing use
of Islander as q means Of diTerting al
tention from their own infamy? This
is the game agreed upon, and already
| adantad bv the republican leaders in this
| State. This shameless feature OF the
programme is visible in every republi-
can sheet 20 be picked up in every part
of the country. The question is, shall
this game be permitted to win? Shall
these falsehoods be allowed to lake root
in any honest mind2 Shall these grace
less ISLANDERS, invented for the occasion,
be allowed to pass current and fRsten
with damaging effect upon the fair fame
Of honest and deserving man-men who
have done noble service in the democrat
lie cause, and who have ever proved
themselves faithful and competent pub
lie servants? We trust tha good sense
Of every man will enable him to discern
at glance the base purpose Of this
Wholesale system Of blackgusrdism and
personal traduJEion, and turn his back
in contempt upon the rufhan herd who
aFs wall0wiag ia this kind of mire. Ii
is bad cause indeed which can be serv-
ed By no other means than those thus
far adopted by the ring-lsadeEs Of re-
publicanism ia Iowa, While there are
in the ranks of ropublieanism many who
no doubt honestly desire the success Of
that party, yet there are also among
them many honorable exceptions who
would prefer defeat rather than success
at the expense Of personal honor and all
tina propEiesies Of life. Among this class
it is reasonable to believe that the rib
aldry already inaugurated viii have an
effect quite different from the enc In
tended.
democrats have no necessity fog such
weapons, nor will they attempt to use
such. They have principles and facts
to 90 uPon-and upon these thsy viii
depend for Bueeess-tFeating as gentle
men those who are such, and treating
biaekguardS as they deserve to be treat
