Bates, Bell aud Botts.

A correspondent Of the Cincinnati
Gazette Republican paper,) writing
from Xenia, Ohio, draws the follow
ing picture Of the gentlemen whose
names head this article. The pic
ture is only valuable SO far as 1t
gives the status Of these men among
the unsound men North:
at is a very easy thing for man
to be noisy Republican in the State
of Ohio, or in any Of the Free States.
II does not require great amount o:
nerve or self sacrificing disposition,
particularly when it is the road TO
prelerment. No man deserves an
extra amount of credit for being a
strong Anti Slavery man in the
North; but there is one thing certain
"a man that will take the stand in
the South that Edward Bates, Of Mis-
souri,, has taken, or that John M.
Bolts, of Virginia, or Cassius Clay.
Of Kentucky, or John Bell, of Ten
nessee, or the gallant Hunt, Of Louis
lana, and many others. who are now
exiled from polite | life for their
honest efforts for Free Territory, and
against the principles of that arch
mischief-naker, Douglas, surely has
nerve to meet any true emergency
There are true men in the South
When in 1874, conending for the
same principle that is now in issue,
we placed our hopes for success on
the State of New York, she basely de.
serted US, while Kentucky and Ten
nessee stood valianily by us. Shall
We then, under the advice Of latter
day saints, say to these States, We
have no confidence in you? Shall
we say to Missouri, we have no con-
fdence in your favorite, notwithstan-
ding DO has done all in his power to

fruits OF bis labors are so apparept7

Judge Bates the nominee and We are
iuvulnerable- invincible our oppo-
uents are disarmed at once. No man
can poll a larger vote 10 the Seventh

Redpath or the Stump.

The following extract is taken
from q speech recently made at Ash
tabula, Ohio, by James Redpath, Of
Kansas notoriety:
"To those Of you who are friends
of the slave-driver / have nothing
to say. My duty is With men whose
hearts are too large to be suffoeated
by the dust raised by party mounte-
banks, and whose gaze is too steady
to be dazzled by the glare Of the
false and fatal splendor Of the Des.
pots Court. To those of you who
are ready to imitate Stevens, this on.
ly need be said: "Be prepared! hide
your time; ere long you a'H be called.
For l tell you. men of Ashtabula,
that the sirangling of John B,own
was not The death of his cause, and
that ere mary more moons rerolre,
tie slave wiN be offered sucoor. Six
months before the blow at Hsrpsr's
Ferry stated that it would be made
and even indicated by whom; and a.
gain, I give the slave-driver a solemn
warning to set his house in order, for
his doom is pronounced--'he shall die
and not lire. Money will be needed to
execute these plans Of liberation.-
Those Of you who approve it may
aid it by your money"
This speech shows very clearly, Ell
Their that Rsdpath was criminally con-.
nected With the affairs at Harper's
Ferry, or that he is great fool for
committing himself in this way.
But little, if any additional evidence
would be required to satisfy the
minds Of a jury that be is guilty, and
ought to suffer a like fate With Brown.
We should think, at all events, that
/ requisltion should be made for him.
Never was there a more unprincipled
anatic than this same Redpath. His
,rines, aside from this nffair, would
10 doubt richly entitls him to the
,eneGt Of q rope and gibbst.
