Dcnnison and COrwia nI Ports
mouth.

Mr.. Dennjson and Gov. Corwin spoke at
Portsmouth. The Is5aas of that place, a Re-
publican organ, is highly gratiied with the
speeches of both gentlemen. Mr.. Corwin made
his speech chiefly on the tariff He appears to
have walked up from a Rip Van Wrinkle sort o.
a sleep, and is endeavOring to rally the 'opposi'
ton" (the name the Republicans sail under in
Scioto) in favor Of the Old Wing tariff policy
lie hopes to catch the iron men Of that region
with such chat. Now this is a gross fraud, as
the Republican platform and all the managing
men of the party are opposed to a protective tar
if. Mr.. Dennison was induced to come out
and take GROUND on the fugitive act in accor
dance with the popular opinion prevailing in
the ranks Of the opposition" in that quarter.
His remarks on that subject are such as he
would not dare to utter in Northern Ohio
The Tribune says his remarks upon this law
were SRcb as 10 dispel all prejudice that may haze
beea entertained against him as a "higber-taV"
aIrocate. lie declared himself IN facor IF an an"
restricted enforcement Of the p~tUgisioaa Of That a~,
and bclierel that he &arGiQllT WAS CLEAR
,LY ENTITLED TO RECLAIM HIS RUN
AWAY SLAVES IN A FREE STATE. II
! the lar tras Objectionable in some features he coaa-
SeHed the Psople oseek a remedy IN its amendment
or repeal through Congress. There lcas no ran
ting aaaticism and higher lap niggerism in his
speeeh, and i any lcere expecting to hear any
thing Of that kind they 1rere d'sVpomte'l."-
Such is the statement of the Tribune in relation
to the remarks of Mr.. Dennison. lie was in
duced blythe tone ofthe public sentiment in that
quarter to take ground such as he has not here
totOre advanced in any of his speeches, and such
as he would not advance in nothern Ohio. The
Committee have studiously avoided making any
appointments for him fn northern Ohio. For
that region. they detail such "higher-law' men
as CHASE, SpALDIYG, D. R. CARTER, and men
ofthat stamp, all Of whom make higher law
speeches. Dennison will not show his head or
the Reserve, except at one debate at Cleveland
) which he could not get rid Of and on that occa'
sion he will take good care to avoid any sucl
sentiment as those he uttered at Portsmouth
How different his competitor. Judge Ranne.
Is now on the stump in southern Ohio, and be
fore the election is over he will meet the people
in the Reserve counties also. lie has but on'
set Of opinions for the whole State We are Gu
rious to know what the "Christian anti SLAYER
l Convention men will think and say Of Dennis
, on'S remarks at Portsmouth. How will tn
D Saints" to whom no wrote tho sympathisinG
l letter at Cleveland, regard them? What vii
r Giddings, S~palGing, Carter, Peck, Plumb, an,
the whole host Of political preachers say
: What does our neishbor Of the Journal think
e 1t is quite certain that Corwin and Demise;
c were both Of the Platform in Scioto; and it
, strange they did not muzzle the editor Of til
n Tribune.
a Its a remark tble fact that Will Demise
e made such remarks at Portsmouth, on Saturda,
, in his speech at ~lronton, on the day previous h
r did not mention the fugitive act. The Cincir
It natl CARTE, of yesterday contains an accurat
i report q his ~Ironton speech, and a reference t
it will show that Mr.. Dennison said nothir
# on that suhjectat that place, His views as gi
is en- at Portsmouth, but few miles distant, wei

Mcfarland OF the Tribune, is so hostile to Git
diass and the Republican creed, that he coul
not 6rego the te mptati3n. He has put the f.
e in the fire, and made a bad piece Of work. A
