The Buchanan County guardian. (Independence, Buchanan County, Iowa) 1858-1864, 1860-09-25
re-" Dom Of the Duhuoua Herald

Gs- DoRR, of the Dubuque Herald,
has recently been TO Independence
DoRR, of course, put himself into com
munication with the Democratic leaders
in this place, and, as was to be expected,
learned some things very encouraging to
Douglas Democracy. He learned of re-
cruits to Douglasism in every township
in this County, and, inspired with the
glorious news, down he sits, and tells
the Democracy of the other counties of
the State, through the Herald, TO do only
as well as that Of Buchanan County, and
a glorious victory will follow 1t is as
tonishng that Dom, after all his exper-
fence with his political reporters in this
county, is credulous enough to think
that they are at all worthy of belief.
Don't he recolect that, relying upon
them, he has, for the last three or four
years, Just previous to each election, an
nounced that Buchanan County was GER
tain to repudiate Republicanism, and 90
for bogus Democracy And don't he
know that each election return has only
tended to show how completely he was
fooled-that each vote has only shown
how strong, how preponderating, is the
feeling of Buchanan Coun-
ty? This experience would certainly have
been enough TO teach any other man that
the energetic efforts of the Judges, the
Coils, the p. Ms, and the Esq's of Blu.
chanan County Democracy were singu-
larlv barren Of results, and that the glor-
ious prospects of victory which they al
ways see ahead arises either from an
over estimate Of themselves, or an un.
der estimate of the people. We tell
DoRR, (and our opinion has thus far pro-
ven better than his reporters, that if the
Democracy OF each county in the State
would do just as we'll as those Of Buchan-
an, DOUGLAS will receive the handsome
minority Of from 10000 to $1,000 votes

Es- The Civilian, three weeks since,
said, as it once before stated, and as we
have heard many Democrats state, that
the Ordinance of 1877 was passed sim
ply to carry out tie conditions Of the
deed OF cession, made by Virginia, when
she ceded the northwest territory TO the
United States. This, two weeks ago, we
denied. We stated that in the deed OF
cession no such condition existed-that
the State of Virginia never required, as a
condition Of the cession, that Cons ress
should prohibit slavery in the territory,
but that it was so prohibited because of
the universal sentiment of the fathers
against The system. 1t was their voIun-
tary act not one done in obedience to
any requirement Of the State Of Virginia
certainly no expressed requirement
We had copy of the deed Of ccssion be-
fore us, and know that no such condi-
ton existed. The Civlltan stated that
the ordinance was simply carrying out
the agreement between the State Of Vir-
ginia and the General Government We
denied that there was such an agreement
Last week, the CiWlioa, in reply, at
tempts to prove the agreement by sta.
ting that Virginia, after the ordinance
was passed, passed an act rahIying H.
The issue is not whether Virginia ac-
guessed in The ordinance, but whether
she required lis passage. There is a
very material difference, most men will
perceive, between aemanding and consen-
ting. Possibly the CtUilian may come
to so understand some of these VS.
To that reply our neighbor adds the
Our neighbo takes 10 abuse as naturally as a
goose TO water ; and as our Intention is TO argue
politics, and not to handy epithets, we shall
treat him just as though he were a gentleman.
When our argument gets SO weak that We are
obliged to bolster it with slang verbiage we
shall quit altogether.
This somewhat astonished us when
we read it, We felt innocent of using

ject was to tell what the Democrats be
lieve, and to denounce STEPHEN A. DouG-
LAS. He spoke in strong terms agains;
the Republicans for favoring the circula-
ton of anti slavery books, such as Help
er's Impending Crisis, Uncle Toms Cab
in, &c. He would have us believe that
Helpers book was the Alpha and Omega
of the principles of the Republican par
ty, { rather think he made some of the
Democrats believe it) and if the Repub-
licans came into power, the consequences
would be awful. In short, he made a
few random shots, and took his seat with
out making one hair white or black.
Mr.. Leavitt took the stand, and said
he came there to discuss Democratic
principles, and not to tell anecdotes, or
to tell his opponents that they lie. He
came there to talk about facts. But he,
unfortunately, did not stick to his text
long. He said the Republicans were H.
ars, and he could prove it. That Doug
las had never said that he did not care
whether slavery was voted up or down,
that the man that said it ought to be
knocked down, and requested his Demo-
cratic friends to do it. He stated that
Douglas had never lodged. and that he
had not changed his views within the
last eleven years, and he would defy any
man to show it--he was straigh t- for
ward, consistent man. The Republicans,
be said, had stated that they would not
submit, and were in for dissolution of
the union. Take the whole affair toeeth-
er, we consider it a complete failure, and
every sensible man who does his own
reading and thinking would turn away
with disgust, and pray never to be found
at such place again.
