TAKES 1T HARD.-We see that y. o. j.
OF Knox, is troubled about the imported
votes that beat him for Representatives
at the October electitn. We hope the poor
fellow will extract little poor comfort
from such winnings. The votes that de-
feated him were imported to Stark county
long time ago
On the same principle, the Republic ans
Of this county imported over 100 voters
who voted for Old Abe at the Presidential
election. Jehu, you'd better own up that
YOU were beaten fairly, as we do in this
couoty. The difference in the vote OF the
two elections was caused by the divisio
in the Democratic party and many OF them
staying at home from the election This
- the trnth about the matter. To this d.
vision the Republicans owe their success
and net to any virtue or strength IN theli
doctrines.

Lincoln's Eiection-How received,

The election of Lincoln Was rather an
unexpected result, even to his supporters,
until within few days before the election
and considering the great victory the par
ty has gained they have made but very
few small demonstrations. There has been
no such rejoicing as we Douglas men
would have gotten up had we elected him
At New Orleans Douglas though beaten,
has, since the result WAS known, had a
reception that was larger and more en-
thusiastic than any demon stration that has
been gotten mp over the election of Lin
coin. We confess that we are somewhat
surprised at the manner in which this tri-
umph of sectionalism Is received by the
Republican PARTY at large.
The only reasons We can conJure up Tor
their GOODNESS IS this: They are conscious
of the uusoundness of their doctrines. are
surprised at their triumph in elecIing their
candidate feel disarmed, as he will be pow
erless TO carry out any Of his doctrines In
relation to the slavery question, should he
be pei united To take the Presidential Chair,
and they are fearful that the triumph OF
their sectional doctrines Will result in a
dissolution of the Union SO far as the
victory is Concerned, they are ''out OF the
woods aud why DO they not ''holler? =
Before the election they sneered at the idea
Of a dissolution of tho Uuion, or a secess-
of some of the Southern States, and those
Democrats who predicted that such would
be the case in the event Of Lincoln's cleo
ton, were called Ceramics ia pantaloons,"
but now that secession is almost certain,
we hear no more about tie cry Of wolf,
secession and 'electioueering hobby nor
the 'grannies IN pant.oons.' On the 9th
er hand Lincoln supporters have proven
themselves such 'grannies' that they are
afraid lie rej,ice over his election as Pres
ideat of the United States for fear he will
not, on account of his Abolitionlsm, be al
lowed to presiie over the Interests of sew
eral of the Southern States.
They owe their success to the division
in the Democratic party and not to any ex-
ertions of their own. The nomination oil
Lincoln was not received with any enthu-
siasm.-he was not supported over Jealous
w and the news Of his election is 20 cause
for rejoicing by his supporters.

THE CRY OF "WoLF. - Mstungly. OF
the Republican, said brlore the election
that the talk of secession, in the event oil
Linceln's election, by some of the southern
States, was only the old cry of Wolf and
was raised for 'electioneering purposes
and he called those who feared such re-
suit, 'erannies.' Now that secession and
disunion are altogether likely to take plac e,
he says 'let them 60 by all MEANS and,
as we have always supposed he was, he rs
entirely Indifferent as 10 the results that
would follow n dissolution of the Union,
Judging from the tenor of bis article on
this subject, last week. We are becoming
more and more convinced. after talking
with many OF them, that the leaders of the
Republican party have 10 regard for the
rights of the South, rs they have no word
Of condemnation for the free States tina
have. by the passage of personal liberty
bills, nulli6ed the fugitive slave law
Rather than the southern States SHOULD
have their constitutional rights. the sec
tional;sls of the North cay let them seced

Retrenchment-False Premises.

When the Republican candidates who
now hold the Offices of this county were
before the people of the county for their
suffrages. they made the dear people all
sorts Of promises as 10 what they would
do in the way of curtailing the public ex-
pen5e of the county. Among others Judge
Fuller was full of such promises and We
are informed, I've were net here at the
time, made numerous promises to the eff
feet that If he was elected Auditor he would
let those do the public printing who would
do it the cheapest. He now denies ever
having made any such promises, and ac-
cordiagly, we have not had an opportunity
to make any bid on the printing of the De-
liuquent List. We spoke to the Judge "a
bout it the ether evening in the presence
of some gentlemen, one of whom told the
Judge that he had not done as he agreed
to, by not giving us bid on the list,
whereupon the Rev. Auditor grew almost
fighting mad, and in the course of the con-
troversy condescended 10 the lowest kind
Of ckguardism. The Rev. gentleman
evidently felt that he was guilty of the
charge made against him. and could think
of no better way to get out of it than TO re-
sort to low, dirty, ackguardism, In the
use of which he is hard to beat. We have
card dozen or more persons speak OF
the matter within few days past aud they
all agree in saying that Fuller with the 9TH
or leading Republicans of the county did
say in substance that retrenchment was
their motto, and that the county printing
should be do ne by those who would do it
the cheapest. We were not permitted to
make bid on it at all. This is the way
they fulfill their promises. We admire a
like the Judges christianity and political
honesty.
Mal,ingly is not half so much troubled
about the tax payers money as he used to
be- While the county was Democratic he
was always whining about the high prices
paid for county printing and wanting to
run the business down until the Democrat
office could scarcely make "A living at 1t,
but now that the Republicans have 1t all to
themselves, we hear no more about under
bidding from him.

Secession Movements.

There is nothing of any particular I'M
portance transpiring in relation to the Sc
cession movement in the Southern States
since our last issue. Numerous meeting-
have been held throughout the different
slave states. At most of these, relatiatory
resolutions have been passed almost unani-
mously. At a few of these meetings high
ly conservative resolutions were passed, In
substance, that the election of Lincoln was
not sufficient cause for secession, but that
the legislation of many of the Free States
was an outrage upon the rights OF the
Southern States ana violation Of the con-
st:tution and that they shonld be resisted,
by all good citizens of the country
Already. thousands OF Minute Men"
ale enrolled for The defense of southern
rights. lfthoze States do not intend to Sc
cede they act very feolishy by making
the prperations they have. and by passing
the resolutions which have Deen adopted
a; nearly all the meetings held in those
States. They will be tough set of fellows
to 'coerce, sure.

Modification of the Constitution.

Since the southern States have began TO
talk OF the rights of each State to secede.
the Republicans of the North have all at
once become expounders of the Constiu-
ton and say that those States must be CO.
creed OF driven back into the Union if
they secede The facts on this point are
simply these; eight of the free States have
passed laws making it penal offence for
slave holder TO come into their State and
take bis property as the Constitution says
he shall. Those States have entirely null
lifted the fugitive slave clause attached to
the Constitution They have just as much
right TO secede as those States have to
make such laws, and while those nullltica-
ton laws stand on the Statutes Of those
nullifying Abolition States no patriot who
is unpreiudiced will assist those fanatical
States in coercing the South. When those
laws are repealed then it will do for those
States to say that the South has no right
| to Seceue, out not uhtu Iheh' iho Ao"'i'
is under no Constitutional obligation to re-
main in the Union, the aggresslons, have
all been made by the North upon the South,
and they have an inherent right to resist
those outrages ard in doing SO they Will
have The sympathy of every unPreJudiced'
honest citizen of the country. The North
has commenced the notification.
We do not pretend to justify the south
ern States in Ill their acts, but there is
certainly very great apology for the
course she has taken, as she has forebor
about lopg enough. we should think. with
the insults and outrage- of northern Abo-
litionism. Let the North be "coerced"
first.
