Marshall County Republican. (Plymouth, Ind.) 1856-1878, 1859-12-15

The Evansville Enquirer, the leading Democrat
c paper of the Pocket. thus frankly owns its pro-
slavery feelings. There is doubt that among
the Democracy growing scntimcntin favor Of fslave-
ry prevails in the Free States.
In opposition to Mr.. Bates's belief, assert that
slavery is social institution and in social sense
beneficial Ii Mr.. Bates were a citizen of Missis-
sippi or Louisiana we suspect his belief would un-
dergo very material change in this respect. The
climate and geographical position of Missouri may
not suggest to the mind of Mr.. Bates the benefits
resulting from slave labor, but circumstances al
ways have and ever will alter The fact must
be well known to Mr.. Bates, and therefore in oppo-
s;tion 20 this knowledge he trumps upa "belc'' that
viii, he hopes, come into play political capital.
II there no such institution slavery in the
country, what would Mr.. Bates do for subject to
bring him into notoriety7 What would all fanat-
les, both political and religious do for some excl
ting topic to give them an impetus to "exaltcd posi-
ti,ns." including the gallowsr Surely there is more
religion and more morality in the United States
than in Africa--more facilities for imbibing occa
sional draughts at the fountains Of knowledge than
in that bcnighted lnd-,lnd We therefore submit

the negroes themselves to dwell as bondsmen in
this country than to roam savaScs in the wids Of
Africa.

IT But what vitality would the Republican par.
ty have without abotionism? Ii Is the general
moral crusade against slavery" its NEGRO phian-
thropy," which'ha given that organization all its
energy. 1t has nothing else TO stand upon.-Dem-
0crGttc paper.
Ore time right in three guesses, says the Madison
Courier is better than the bogus organs of bogus
Democracy generally do. The Republican party
is not an abolition party, because efforts by them
have ever been made to abolish slavery in any Of
the slave States. The Republican motto is Gland
for the landIcss," protection for free white men,
The only crusade against slavery has been against
its extension, and that as the bogus organ admits
is "a moral crusade" There is nothing like negro
philanthropy in the Republican organization Tho
Republican party is the white mans party; is is an
organization of white men for their own interests,
and to prevent as far as possible the runous COM
petion between their free labor and that Of unpaid
slave labor.
1t is well known and admitted fact that the con-
vict labor of the States prison at Jacksonville has
ruined the manufacturing interests of that town.
No honest man can make wagon az cheap as those
who hire the convict labor This is a serious cvil
but local The evil the convict labor works to the
prospect of Jcersonvile and vicinity, slave labor
is 10 the States which have adopted that system
To prove this, contrast Ohio with Kentucky. vir-
ginia with New York, Alabama and Indiana. Your
true Democrat was for while very fearful--not
that he would be degraded. but that the negro
would be elevated to his level. To prevent this,
the Southern wing re-opened the slave-trade with
the coasts Of Africa. The success of the impor.
taton, or something else, has quietcd his fears and
he does not now talk SO loudly about "ncgro equal
ity.''
The bogus Democrats your best "ncgro philan-
thropst"; he argues that it is positive benefit to
the negro to ensIav him. We have heard Gov.
Willard argue that the slaves christianized in the
cotton. rice. and sugar fields Of the United States
would be the means in the hands of Providence of
outstanding all Ajrica. What a magnificent ne
gro phlanthropic party the bogus Democracy is and
yet so modest! While working ardcntly to chris
tianize Africa, they would fain give all the credit
10 others.

In the Senate yesterday, Senator Trun-
bull made lengthy speech, chiefly in de-
fence of the Republican party, in which ba
said that the declaration of Mr.. Seward :,
regard to the "irrepressible conflict" was
nothing more than the views expressed bv
Washington and the Southern men n

Jefferson, that there is nothing moro cor

idea was foreshaslowed by Jefferson. AL

quences OF the Jefferson prophecy, unless
this was done. In favor Of this movement.
