mand ofslovcry, aud reading the names
Of statesmen who had voted for euch
measures, was not in good taste; that
might suit the taste Of the gentleman
from Licking and of his party, but to him
(Ntr. W It looked entirely too much ike
ones own shame. He did
not think that argument would address
itsclfvory strongly, even 20 Conservative
Republicans. AS to the men whose
names were read, as part of the record,
he thought Mr.. Andrews had repented In
sack cloth and ashes, OF why was he la
the Republican party to-day.

has exhibited is the best reason he can
give TO defeat this bill, let him for few
moments refer to tho rccordof the Dem.

1851 and 1852 in Ohio-could not
that gentleman make some apphcn.

is a Democratic record, but the argument
It gives can lose none of its force because

Mr.. Voris then read from the Joint res.
olutions ofthe Legislature Of 1850 and

Gratis as would be Gov. Payne and others
directly meeting every point made by the
gentleman as 10 the unconstitutionality
Of the Fugitive Slave law as to his objcc-
tion to its repeat.
As to the dispOraging charge made
against the Western Reserve, Mr.. ",
said he was proud TO represent Wost-
ern Reserve constituency on this iloor.--
That the Reserve held so high place in
the scele in enterprise, intelligence, love
Of justice, patriotism and devotion TO the
common country, that the exalted posi-
ton was the fullest protection against the
attacks of all maligncrs.

The Administration nnd the
FireCuters cOmspirinE against
BOuglns.

A. correspondent, Of the New York
Times writes:
"The election ofPonnington is prae-
tically due 70 those reeusants from Ala
bama, South Carolina aud Mississippi,
who refused to unite upon MeClsrnand,
although assured that tho Southern On,
position would vote solid fot that Rentle-
man whenever their votes would tic tho
Republican candidate. Burksdale made
a strong record against theea parties in
his speech, clearly showing that Ar. Nc
Clernaud's vote could be made equal to
Pennington's to-day, and that, with the
arrival Of JAS. A. Stallworth in day or
two the Democrats could elect Nation
al candidate.
ut is known that the President labor
ed to his uttermost to defeat "the Illinois
rebel" and also that senators Clay aud
Green appeared upon the floor last cven-
ing, actively canyassing and button-holc-
ing against concentration Of all the con-
seryative elements on national candi-
date Ia other words, they preferred
Republican victory 10 the endorsement
which would otherwise have been given
to the doctrines for which war against

The Sliding Scale Of Govern
ment Creditunder "a Democratic
Administration.

A government loan Of a million, 70
keep the Democratic administration 90
ing, was awarded Jan. 3lst, at, from par
to one per cent premium. One hundred
thousand brought one per cent. 81.
When Buchanan went into Office, gov
ernment credit was fifteen per cent. a.
bove par, and the Treasury was SO fun
that the Secretary went into market aud
bought up the United States bonds at
this rate. Within four years the admin
istration has accumulated a debt Of sixty
tive'millions for ordinary expense, and
is selling bonds 20 supply It's daily neces-
sities, at fraction Of one per cent. above
par. II paid bonus equal to three years
interest to take up its bonds, and is issu-
ing them again atnearly par. Nor has il
any future resource, except IN continual
oans. Such brilliant financial results
show that the Democratic party is the
only one capable Of administering the
government.-State Journal.
