The Tiffin weekly tribune. (Tiffin, Ohio) 1859-1868, 1860-02-03

Mr.. ClHy--I am willing to take, for in
stance, this much illuminated man Sew
ard, Chase or Mclean, Lincoln, Bates,
Bell, Bolts, or old Kentuchy's favorite
son, Crttcnden, Applause. five could
have him Girly and squarely upon the
platform. Any body except the old Doc
tor. have got a sad distaste for him.

DISSOLUTION.
Let us look at that thing of dissolution.
A body would suppose with Canada far
removed, that when it has become dung
erous for me to speak where there are
millions Of white men to a few hundred
thousand slaves, that slave property had
become unsafe. Dissolve the Union and
move the line to the north Of the Ohio,
and would you have additional security J
Does any man suppOse-is any man mad
enough to suppose that If these people,
once bound together by o common broth
erhood Of suffering, by association in
churches, by a common christianity, by
the ties of education, cannot remain in
peace in the Union, that they would re-
main in pence out of IT, Does Mr..
Breckenridge or Gov. Magofiin suppose
such a case as thntl
You have your answer when you see
Governor Wise, who in the last Presi-
dental race talked of soizing upon the
arsenal and marching TO Washington, to
take possession of the archives, and pre-
venting the Inauguration of a Republican
President, saying, now if any fighting is
10 be done il is 10 be done in the Union,
and not out of il; when you see your
democratic orators talking round and be-
coming the defenders of the Union
Don't you all begin to see the folly Of
this thingl Don't you all sec, what all
monof common sense must see, that out
side Of the Union there lies less security
for slave property Certainly you do!
No body suppOses that there woul be
anything other than the way Mr.. Caldwell
said to-day. Do YOU suppose you would
have peace! No sir, il would be war to
the kniie-and the knife TO the hilt. That
is what would be the result. Where is
your security for your slave property
thcnl Would your eight millions ofwhite
men enter upon contest with twenty
millions and hold your slaves at home.
II is not to be heard Of More safety
/ MOI
The fact is you would have to sacrifice
your negroes, like France and Hungary
did their slave property, at once, at the
beginning of the war. Then what would
you gain so far as you arc slaveholdersl
What are the aoa-SidUed0lders 10 gain ;
/ Why II reminds me of a history, that a
friend Of mine, an ingenious man, used TO
tell Of q white man and Indian. They
got into a fight, and after a while the
Indian proving too hard, the white man
took to his heels, and while outrunning
the Indian the latter cried out, "stop
white man, stop" and the white man
halloaed out, "stop! / will be damned If
do" Why, gentlemen, you ask all OF
us non-slayeholders Of the Union who
have borne all the oppression, 70 sacrifice
I all the liberty VIC have 30 return 10 those
rules aud regulations of despotism, against
which we rose up in arms in l776.
Il What do you propose 10 give us In lieu
Of this great Union as protactionl Why
/ the Charleston Mercury and the Rich
mond Enquirer say, eve will send 70
Louis Napoleon, aad we will ask him 70
lend us some troops to defend us" Oh,
shamel shamel Are you going 70 bring
US to thisl Is this tie reward that you
offer US, that you viii call on Louis Ma
poleon, the despot Of France, aud his
troops, and he will defend us against
{ these Northern traitors and fanahcs.---
1 Are you ready for that, DemoeFatsl We
T have been led long by Democratic lead
ers. Is this the feast 70 which you have
invited US, that after you can no longer be
preserved, that they viii get Louis Ma
poleon, (they can't nst Vicioria, She las
