The Cadiz Democratic sentinel. [volume] (Cadiz, Ohio) 1854-1864, 1859-12-14

! Yesterday the chief baggage master" of the
Republican party in your State during the last
campaign-Tom Corwin-made speech, or
rather offered a bid, for the Speakcrship lie
declared himself Republican-one, however,
who held to the faithful observance Of the Flu
gitive Slave Law, and ,could cote against its re-
pal. He declared that the large majority OF
the Republicans in Ohio held similar views and
that when they passed the resolution at their
last State Convention, demanding its repeal,
they voted without knowing what they were
voting for. His Speech if taken as evidence.
would make out the Republican organization OF
Ohio, as the most loyal to the Constitution, the
most opposed to abolition canaticism, the truest
friends Of the Fugitive Slave Law, and the most
law abiding citizens, of any in the State, Cor
wins flsifying Of facts on Wednesday, was only
ivercd them, and the vanity with which he de-
clared himself the "leader" -"the great leader )
of the Republican party.
Upon the conclusion ofhs speech Mr.. Cox.
OF Columbus District, replied in short speech
The best evidence that his effort was success.
fnl was the numerous efforts Of prominent Re
publicans from your State, endeavorng to ex-
plain He denied that the Republican organs
z'tion ofOhio, was in favor o carving out the
Fugitive Slave Law, and that Corwin was the
leader, and furnished such clear convincing
proof from the records that not man conld
doubt the truth ofhis assertions, 1fever there
was partv,--or rather its leaders--unmaske ked.
and their hypocrisy rendered visible to the eve,
he unma 'ked that Of the Republican organiza.
tion your State. The Republicans got mad
and excited, used every effort to interrupt and
break the force Of his remarls--but Of no avail
He used up the baggage master" so quickly,
gentlenanly, and completely, that even Repub.
licans are forced to admit it. Bcn. Stanton
gave notice that he should reply to Mr.. Cox
to-day.
Bingham, your member, hear also intends TO
deliver himselfeither to-day or tc morrow He,
by the way also is one Of the signcrs and en-
dorsers of the infamous Helper pamphlet. Cox
yesterday alluded to the speech Bingham made
in Cincinnati, in 1850, in defence of the Fugi-
tive Slave Law, when the "Hon. John a." e.
rose evidently much excited, and, if heard
Alright denied having made such a speech. By
the by, l have an extract from it in my scrap
book as reported by the Cincinnati Commercial,
which paper, should think, ought to be pret.
ty good evidence for Republican. ,, sa.,
The members Of the National Democratic
Committee met at Wizards Hotel on Wednes-
evening, and after a free interchange of views,

II o'clock, NJ, as the time for the meeting ofthe
National Democratic Convention at Charleston.
A Committee was also appointed, to secure a
suitable hall to hold tho Convention in, and to

In the Senate on Monday, Mr.. Mason, ofVa
offered resolution for the appointment ofa
Committee to examine into the Harper's Ferry
Conspiracy. This resolution has been under
discussios in that body more or less every day,
since it was introduced. The resolution Wilt
pass. DIET
There is much surprise felt here at the.course
pursued by a majority of these members who
style themselves "anti 7Lecompton" or Doug.
Democrats" relative to the Spealership. -
While the Illinois members united with the
other Democrats, and vote for the regular nom
inee some seven or eight others are doing every
thing, indirectly, which they possibly can, to
defeat the regular organization Of the party; and
to day, it is stated, that they have determined
to go either for the adoption Of the plurality
rule which is vote directly in favor the Repub.

friends Of Judge Douglass they have taken
very unwise method to show it;,their course
