ent encouraging Msm," Now let us see
hoao Gov. Chase "encouraged" this un-
lawful and riotous proceeding. The fol-
lowing extracts from his speech on thai
occasion will show:
"a few hours ago he wss sitting in his
office in Columbus, not expecting to be
present to-day; he had felt 1t his duty to
come, but he had not come to advise them
to do anything which they hereafter might
have occasion to regret. He had not come
to counsel any violence. The American
people having the control Of all power by
the ballot boxes, it was for them to do it
in their own legitimate way.
"It was not necessary that we, the SOW
ereigns of the land, should resort to any
measures which could not be carried out
at all times and under all circumstances. ("
LET the Courts be appealed to, and let
them act in accordance with their con
science and their duty between themse yes
and their God. The great remedy is in
the people themselves at the ballot box
Elect men with backbone, who will stand
up for their rights, no matter what forces
are arrayed against them"
We cannot put a high estimate upon the
moral integrity Of man who would &C
wantonly pervert history, and utter SC
paIpable SANDER against the man whose
place Tin the language of Douglas) he i;
after. If we are not mistaken, Judge Ran.

whom he can probably attempt to impose

EE Mr.. Cox, the Democratic candidate
for Treasurer in Muskingum county, is
the gentleman who was expelled by a Bap-
tist Church in GAINESVILLE for initiating the
Apostle Paul in sending back an escaped
slave to his owner. He was acting as
Deputy United States Marshal. His ex-
pulsion from the Church was so odious
and foolish, that, it is thought, the peo-
pie will rebuke the sect of fanatioism by
electing him Treasurer. Paper.

AY-M Mr.. Eustis, of Louisiana, in stating
his reasons for giving in his adhesion to
the Democratic party, ,utters the following
bit of obvious truth: Whatever errors
the Democratic party may have commit
ted-and it undoubtedly has many to an
swer for whatever inconsistencies it may
have fallen into, we must bear In mind
that Southerners haze ruled supreme in It's
councils. and have held its destinies IN
their hands,"

The "Volksblatl," German paper
published at Keokuh, Iowa, and hereto
lore strong Democralicorgan, has hosted
the Republican fag, and is now advocating
with great force the Republican platform
and ticket in that Slste. It. says the Ger
man vote of Iowa, almost Unanimously,
will be cast for the Republican ticket.
All right! We belieyeit cannot be long
before such will be the case every where.

The Democratic candidate for Governor
h ardly comes up to public expectation, as
a stump orator. He spoke a. GAINESVILLE,
on the 10Th inst, and, according to the
report in the "Courier, 'made a decided
failure State affairs, he INDUCED very
natural inclination to ignore, though even
on that subject, it was hardly wise not to
make show of courage and general in
formation, inasmuch as the office for
which he stunning has no immediate con-
Germ with other than home matters, He
occupied his time almost exclusively with
rather commonplace remarks on popular
sovereignty and the fugitive slave law
He was understood to take the side Of
sqIatter sovereignty and expressed himself
in favor of sustaining the fugitive slave
4w, Notwithstanding his zeal, nine years
ago, for nulliying the same. The "Cou-
rier" says: ...... .- .. ..4a.s
"Hs told how the delegates from the
tree States in the Federal Convention inser-
ted in the Constitution the provision. that
when slave escaped into free Staie,'
(these were his Words he should be de-
livered up upon claim. Pray, Judge, will
you tell us how many free States there
were at thai time; and in what edition of
the Constitution the words free State
occur? ......
".But the Judge didn't know where be
was when he pitched into the Fugitive
Slave law with such vehenence. Let
him look at the platform, adopted by our
Convention before, and he will see that we
are law abiding people, that while we
demand the repeal or essential modifica-
ton of that law, we will submit to fair,
legal and proper execution Of it, and that
we acknowledge the provisions of the Con-
stitutlon in relation to the rendition of fu-
gitives, nor can the Judge fail TO remember
that the State Convention simply asked its
peal, and that no State or National Con-
ventvn of the Republican party ever
counseled, advised or declared that law
ought to be disregar6ed or forcibly resis-
ted"
One other point, noticed by the
Courier, deserves attention, as showing
the degree Of candor and honesty which
Judge Rauney maniGests while soliciting
the suffrages of the people. Referring 10
the presence of Gov. Chase at the Cleye-
land meeting, he said in effect. that "a
meeting numbering 10000 composed Of
men from all parts Of the Reserve, who had
gone there under the promise that they
should tear down the Jail in which were
incarcerated a number of men who had
violated the Fugitive Slave Law, met at
Cleveland, short time ago, and he was
sorry to say that the Chief Executive OF
the great State of Ohio was present en-
