ShurZ and the Journal

The Rartmar's journal n few weeks ago
pitched" into Us for having published an
extract from speech made by notori-
Gus Hti Republican at Black Republican
mceting-by tho name Of CARL SHURZ
Tie journal" in attempting to defend
| this Red Republican publishes an extract
from a speech made by Judge Douglas
to show that Shtr: was rig ht. BY this rea
soning we infer the journal" intends to
convey the idea that Mr. S,,us understands
the Declaration OF Independence much
better than Judge Douglaq-that the inS
( Ite.pretation put upon that immortal in
strument by American Statesmen is wrong
| This no American citizen will concede TO
be fact, but exactly the reverse-the
journal" and Shrrz to the contrary not
lwithstanding.
Sh4r= made speech ut Toledo, Ohio,
last week, and The HsraH Of that place
says he reiterated the same obnoxious
sentiments about the declaration OF Inde-
Ipendence, in which the journal" comes
to his rescue. Mr. Shurz has probably not
seen the journals" defence of himself,
or he certainly would not persist III his
wicked course after being put right by it
on this question.
The Herald says:
"He did not deny any allegation that
has been made against him by the Demo
cratic press. He repeated'his celebrated
TRADE, which we have published word for
word, and was cheered by the negro O.
quality Repu olicans, to the very echo
His position as stated substantially 10y
himself, is, that il this government was
instituted 10y white men for the benefit
of white men, and il the negro is not the
equal of the white man, then our declar.
alton was diplomatic dodge an excuse
a hypocritical piece Of special pleading
drawn up by pettifoggtrs' to throw dust in
the eyes of the world and to inveigle no
ble hearted fools into lending them aid
and assistance, a mean Yankee trick-a
wooden nut neg-the most impudent in.
position ever practiced upon the whole
world
There was no mistaking the meaning
of the gentleman. Republicans felt it and
only be attributable to the wet blanket
thrown Ipon them by his open and un
disguised avowalS, where they expected
denials that is, those not among their
lcalers-the rank and file"

Ed. HAWK EYE: take this method Of inform
ing your reade how things are moving in this
section in relation to the election Of Pssidentin in
November next, and showing how rapidly the Re
publican party has gained since 1855. In that
year Fremont got one vote in this little town,
and perhaps twenty-five in Marshall county, and
now Lincoln and Hamlin, will get at least thirty
forty votes in the same little village, and not
less than four hundred in Marshall county; and
would beyond doubt carry the county only for
the threats of the Democratic party, who say
that they will throw any man in the river who
offers to vote the Republican ticket, and had
stated that if the Republicans hoisted pole and
aag for Lincoln and Hamlin that they would cut
it down and rum the Republicans out Of the State.
This is what We call the gag Democracy law
Wherever they are in the majority or think they
are, by their threats they try to intimidase
the people. but Notwithstanding all their
threats, on the l6th day of August last, about
thirty Of us went into the woods two mles and
cut beautiful pole, and at three o'clock r. n.
hoisted it in the town with streamer at the top
bearing the names Of Lincoln and Hamlin

that they want man like Lincoln elected-a
man who knows what labor is. They have .
