POLITICAL FoRGERIES.

All campaigns have their peculiarities; and
the one just closed has been distinguished by
the persistence of the democratic press in
perpetrating forgerieS upon the Republicans.
Early in the campaign, before any one was
nominated for the Presidency, string of
quotations, attributed to Horace Greeley,
Joshua Il. Giddings and other leading Repub-
licans, went the rounds of the Democratic pa
pers, not one of which was genuine. They
were each repeatedly declared to be fabrca-
tions by the men to whom they were attrlbu-
ted, but the party press hung on to them long
after, evidently 10th to give them up.
AS soon as Mr.. Lincoln was nominated, the
New York Herald perpetrated a forgery by
mutilating an extract from one of his speech
es. In the debate with Douglas, Mr.. Lincoln
remarked that at such and such place, s'Mr.
Douglas said that | said" so and so, and then
went on to show that Mr.. Douglas misrepre
sented him. The Herald, in extracting this,
left out the words, ssMr. Douglas said that, -
and thus gave it as being an utterance of Mr..
Lincoln instead of Mr.. Douglas. This vile
imposition had a short run in the locofoco
papers but somehow they soon got ashamed
OF it and abandoned it.
They were not, however, so easily shamed
out of the similar forgery perpetrated upon
Carl Shurz. They seized upon a certain par
agraph in one Of his speeches, in which he
portrayed the Declaration of Independence as
Mr.. Douglas interpreted it, and gave it as con-
tanning the sentiments of Mr.. ShurZ. Ideas
which he was holding up to ridicule they pub
lished as his own. This was the vilest kind
of forgery and the locofoco editors, instead
of growing ashamed of it, when it was ex-
posed, adhered to it all the more firmly
and persisted in it to the last.
The next and the last forgery was an extract
from speech purporting to have been made
by .sJohn M. Wilson, Lincoln elector in
Massachusetts, denouncing the Germans in
unmeasured terms. When it was shown that
there was no John NJ. Wilson on the Lincoln
electoral ticket in Massachusetts,, his location
was transferred to Indiana. There a Mr.. j John
M. Wilson was found, but he declared most
solemnly that he never made such a speech,
and produced the testimony of his neighbors,
who heard the speech he made at the time and
place this was alleged to have been made, that
he uttered no such sentiments. This was a
exposure of the fraud but the DEM
ocratic papers paid no heed to the exposure,
and hung on to the dirty forgery with death
grip.
Akin to these was series of advertisements
written by locofocos and published in the
Pittsburgh Dispatch. Philadelphia Ledger, and
N. 7. Herald, calling on the negroes to rally,
form wide awake clubs, &c. Another adver-
tisement represented that ssa respectable col
ored family wanted white boy to wait on the
table and make himself generally useful about
the house," Alter writing and publishing
these as genuine, their loco-foco authors made
Raftsman's journal. [volume] (Clearfield, Pa.) 1854-1948, 1860-11-14

great ado over them, as evidence of the nat,
ural tendency of Republican principles, anu
these advertisements, after having gone tne
rounds in the northern democratic papers,
are now travelling through the south, furnish
ipg food for the demagogues of that region
with which to stimulate the fiercest passions oil
the fire eaters.
This trick was the dirtiest of the whole can
vass None but the vlest heart could con-
ceive OF IL or the flthiest hand execute it.
That the party should have resorted to such
meanness shows how desperate it had grow n
in the terrible decay of its fortunes.
But 1t was all in vain. Forgery would not
save it from ruin and in the nastiness with
which it surrounded itself in its last days it
has demonstrated, better than ordinary Ian
guage can, the great necessity that existed for
its eXtirpatiOn.

How THEY WILL DO IT.-George n. Saund-
of New York has discovered, and has
kindly informed the public in long letter,
exactly how the Union is to be dissolved, and
what are to be the dreadful consequences. If
we may believe him, only the cotton States
will secede, leaving Maryland, Virginia. &C.,
behind, giving the North the Capitol build
ings at Washington, the records, and all that
kind Of property. Then they won't fight,
but will keep still, and be as moody as you
please. They will stop raising cotton, which
will distress the North desperately, and very
soon bring on revolution. They will have
cheap government, no taxes, and a fine time
generally. Now, who ever thought they would
do it in this way 1t is not very appalling
after all. We had expected that they would
take the public archives, steal all the money in
the Treasury, kill few of us, have a ssunited
South" and quite soon become the most pow
erful nation on the face of the earth. We don't
know who gave Saunders his information, but
we confess to great disappointments. If we
must have crash, why, let us have big one.
