These two leading lights of the Republican
party and faithful opponents of the creed of
that portion of tie party that controls its or
ganisasioH IN Ohio and the New England
States, have each issued a. manifesto to their
faithful followers, since the Presidential cleo
ton We publish copious extracts from that
OF the former, on the. outside of this issue, and
one from that of the latter on the inside, to
each Of which we call particular attention.
The speech of Phillips was published in the
Ohio State Journal, just as it would publish
a simon pure Republican documents, and with
out saying anything against its reasonable
doctrines. The man who can utter such SEN
tinaeHts as "Lilerty first and Union after.
wards" that he cares nothing for the Union of
the States, that the Historical society would
better take the American flag for their muse
um, and other such sentiments. is a fit expo
nent of the Black Republican creed.
Mr.. Phillips, has, however, a merit above
that of his followers, who are too timid and
coMardly to express their sentiments. They
know that to express the true doctrines of
their leaders in all their naked deformity would
throw them into a minority-destroy their
powers and last, and greatest, would prevent their
grasping the spoils. They do not Therefore
dare to take the high ground sat one step
They seek to educate the public mind up grad
naHy to their position, and the in mean time re-
tain the power. No sane man doubts that the
ultimate object of the leaders of the Republican
party is the abolition of slavery, and the social
and political equality Of the negro. Wendel
Phillips, who takes this position openly, re-
joices greatly at the ''moral effect" of the cleo
ton of Abraham Lincoln. "Firstt the blade,
then the ear, then the full corn in the ear" ?
"LINCOLN Is IN PLACE, GARRISON
IS is IN POWER"
% He proves clearly that the position he takes
must and will be the position of the Republican
party. The Republecam party he says shape
uadertaAen a problem, the, solution Of sehich
1iW F Orr E them to our position"
Now we have only to ask the people of Ash
land County, do you endorse such sentiments
as this And you Republicans, We do not
mean those that are looking for Office, are you
willing to be led by such traitors into endors-
ing henceforth by your votes such sentiments
as are thus expressed by Phillips and Giddings?
Have you, or will you undertake a problem
the solution of which will FORCE you to trea-
son against your Government, even to the
breaking up and destruction of the mobiles and
greatest fabric of free government ever erected
by the hand of man.

Qualification.

z We shall have a few words to say in our
next about the notification that is threatened
in the South, as well as the notification that
has for years been carried on by the Northern
) States, in violation of the Constitution and
laws of our Country as completely as is now
threatened by the South. The signs grow
more omnibus. It has heretofore been alledg-
ed that the secession or disunion movement in
the South was all the braggadocio of a few
ambitious Southern leaders. The facts now are
that the movement is almost unanimous In the
South, that the aohole people feel the wrong,
and i~sdignity that has been inflicted upon
them in the election of q President, by a por
ton of the Union merely because 1T has the
numerical superiority aad was able on that
ground alone to accomplish its purposes. We
have fallen Hpen evil times. God only knows,
what will be the result 1est
Some leading Republicans in Ashland, who
have been depending on Southern buyers for
their trade are already beginning to feel the
effects of It in their pockets, although they do
work their hands ta0elOe hours per day. -

Extracts from a Letter by Joshua R Gid
..a. dings to Hon. Thomas Ewing.

You speak sneerlngly OF ."lrrepressIble con-
fict men," of men of .extreme opinions" of
"abolitionists," of "higher law men," Epi-
thets are not arguments. They are adapted
to minds that ~revolve in a certaian sphere of
thoughts. but are seldom uttered by statesmen
or philosophers. You, however, are under
stood as referring to men aoho are your peers z:
men whose craftsmanship, whose integrity,
will not suffer by a comparison with yours; to
men who will not shrink from the Judgment
of the present or of coming generations.
/, sir, believe in that "higher law" of the
Creator, which holds the sun in mid heavens,
guides the planets in their courses, gives ac-
ton to your throbbing heart and heaving
lungs, which inspires you with a love of life,
a thirst for happiness, a consciousness that
liberty as yours, impresses you to acquire
knowledge, and removes you to another sphere
at the close of this life. You sheer at these
speech. In it there is no recognition of right,
of enduring principle, of Ged, His attributes,
or laws. You evidently hold that human gov
ernments possess the same power to legislate
for the murder of innocent men and women
which they have to protect human life; the
same power to enslave men which they have
to protect liberty. Republicans hold with
the fathers that governments are instituted to
secure the enjoyment of life ard liberty. That
the murder or ensiaVement OF the humblest of
the human family is not merely ;aD5ust, but
criminal. That all enactments by Congress,
authorizing or proposing to authorize one
man to hold another in bondage, to fog him,
rob Kim of his labor his wife, his children,
his intelligence, his manhood, are not only
despotic, but barbarous, and in direct violation
of that clause in our Federal Constitution
which declares that ''no person shall be de-
prived of life, liberty or property, without due
process of law" that is, without trial before
a court of competent jurisdiction, by a jury of
his peers 5l,- r59E cT .-5~t s
For the establishment and maintenance of
these views 1 have labored long and steadily.
You have labored long and just as steadily to
oppose them. We hare lived to see an over
whelning expression of the American people
in their favor. They have elected a President
pledged to their support. WI he redeem has
pledge? 1 believe he will. Time will solve
the problem. zog5.
Very respectfully,

SporLING THEIR FUN.-"The defeat of An

. Tn all panics, the bankers and brokers are
the first to feel the shock, and then other
classes sufer in their turn. In this country,
the North and the South and the East and
the West are SO bound together, that what at
fects the peeuniary interest of one portion at
fects that of all the rest. It is the same with
classes of business men, and with individuals,
from the millionaire who rides in his coach to
the poor laborer who carries the hod. hen

,gether; and it is folly to fiatter ourselves with
the false notion that the South may go to ruin

We charged frequently before the election in
our paper, and in speeches throughout the coun-
ty, that the taxes in the State of Ohio would be
much higher this year than they have been
heretofore. This was denied by the Republi-
cans and it. was charged upon us that it was
gotten up merely as an electioneering argu-
ment. Since then we have heard numerous
complaints from persons who have come in to
pay their taxes Of the immense increase in
their taxes. You now have the proof. You
now knob, or will when you have ascertained
what your taxes are, that they are largely in
creased You further know that the State of
Ohio has been under the ~nnis-rule of the Black
Republicans for several years and that they
alene are responsible for this heavy increase.
In the County of Ashland, the people
of the County pay about $4,000 more taxes
for State purposes alone than they paid a year
ago, and still more than they eUer paid before.
This is Black Republican "retrenchment and
reform, This is the effect Of keeping in pow
er q set,of fools and fanatics that have dissev-
cred the Union of the the States and brought
upon the people of the country the most sta
pendous evil that ever befel a nation.
Then open your purse strings, pull your
hard earned money from your pockets and
pay for $4,000 sprees; $4,000 pictures,
extra sessions Of the legislature &c. all incur
red by Black Republican officials
1r We say, down with these serruptionists,
down with this fanaticism and folly and save
the country and the credit of our State. i'

~Pniiadesehto Election.

Some of the Republican papers have made
the Statemant that the Lincoln vote in Phila-
delphia, was larger than the combined oppo-
siticn. These statements are Incorrect. The
following was the vote:
Fusion ticket 20,O53, straight Douglas ticket
21,619, Lincoln 1928, Bell 7,131. Demo-
cratic majority over Lincoln 12,449.
"a The latest neUs by telegraph shows
that the people of the extreme Southern States
arc. determined on secession.
We have not space to publish the items en-
tire, but they amount to just this, that the
people of those States, not the politicians alone
have fully determined upon this course, and
nothing will probablybe done, save to let them
peaceably secede or coerce them into subjec-
ton with force and arms. Now, hurrah fol
Lincoln, will you Hurrah for Northern
Manufactures, but COP save their beggared
operatives. szl'H

Senator Toombs and Iyerson, and Howell

State. Herschel V. johnson and Alex A.
Stephens will lead the union forces. The
secession excitement largely predominates
throughout the State.
But one feeling, one sentiment is expressed,
and that is for secession. Statesmen and edl-
tors say that argument is now extasted, and
that s. c., must stand to her arms; ne earthly
power can prevent her from going out of the
Union. She has drawn her sword, and thrown
away her scabbard.
