FREMONT: OHIO
Friday, April lS, 1860.

The Messenger last week boasted very
much over the success of the Democracy in
Riley township, in electing their township
officers without opposition. We have no
room for its article, but we have a few
words to say on the subject.
We doubt whether the editor Of the Mes
sengey understands what he speaks Of II
he does, he is upholding one of the mean
est and most corrupt transactions now trans
piring in our county.
The actual rent of School section l6, in
Riley township, according to the appraise-
ment made in 1856 by John s. Gardner,
John L. Cole and Samuel Skinner, is about
$500 per year. Mr.. Parks owns large
portion of this land, and only pays a rent
of six cents an acre for it, and has so held
it and so paid ever since the appraisement,
and refuses to pay more. So do all the
lessees, who together form political infu-
enee which keeps in Office such men as re-
fuse to collect the legal rent, and thus they
rob the school fund to maintain prominent
democrats, and to aid them in getting rich
at the expense of the township. As the
Messenger says, this is entirely democratic;
opposition is useless, until democrats learn
to regard oath and official duty, honesty
and justice, more than democratic success
in that township.
But Riley is truly democratic, and so it
will be as long as corruption and public
plumber reign supreme. There will, we
trust, be a day of reckoning with these
model democrats.

LoveioY i'm the House.

Owen LovejoY of Illinois is one of the
brave and true men of the West. Of COM
manding appearance, stentorian voice, and
earnest gesticulation, he speaks right out
and right on for the cause of Truth and
Right. His blows tell with sledge hammer
effect, for he has an account to settle with
the monster Slavery, red with the blood Of
murdered brother.
How strikingy his bearing in the House
during the exciting scenes on Thursday con-
trasts with that of the slave-drivers around
him. With his life in his hand he twice
repaired to the tribune near the Clerks
desk, and in full face of the whole House
confronted the mobocracy who would chang
him higher than John Brown" He quailed
not at their threats and uplifted canes
though he well knew that his blackguard
assaiIants carried the concealed weapons ot
assassins. Mark the low, vulgar interrup-
tions, the applications of opprobious cpl
thets, the brow-beating, and plantation
cracks of the whip-language and conduct
by tho excited chvalry which would dis.
grace the hustings and race-course of the
constituents who elect such representatives
Lovejoy could not be driven from his duty
and purpose. Fearlessly he met theil
threats and virulent abuse with an array o
facts which burned and blistered the Moocl
they worship, and treated his personal re
yilers with the contempt they so richly mer
tied. Honor to Owen Lovejoy, of Illinois
The Rev. Elijah P. Lovejoy fell by the
hands of Missouri mob at Alton, ILL.,, OF
the night of the 7th of November, 1881
He edited the Alton Observer, an antislav
cry paper. Twice had his press been de
stroyed by mobs. A new press, the third
was received and stored in a warehouse
The mob came over again and demanded
it. Lovejoy and few friends resolved tc
defend their property. The warehouse was
assailed. A shot from the building killed
Lyman Bishop, one of the mobbers. The
warehouse was set on fire. TO escape death
by burning, Mr.. Lovejoy and his friends
passed out. At the door Mr.. l.. received
four balls in his breast, and fell dead. The
press was thrown into the river.
Such, briefly, was the martyrdom of E
P. Lovejoy. When slave minions attempt
ed to silence Owen Lovejoy in the House
his only reply to CLARK, of Missouri, was
"YoU SHED THE BLOOD OF MY BRoTHET
TWENTY YEARS AGO, AND l AM HERE Tc
SPEAK THE TRUTH."-Leader.

Tho Anti-POILgnmY ELL.

The bill abolishing polygamy, which pass
ed the House on Thursday by a decided
vote, is claimed by parties interested to es-
toJlish polygamy IN the District Of Oolstna-
6ia ,Ohilst a6olishing 1t an Utah. We give
a literal copy of the leading provision of the
bill:
"That if any person or persons, being
married, shall during the life of the former
husband or wife, marry another person, in
any Territory of the United States, or other
place ercept an the District Of Columbia
over which the United States possess exclu
sive jurisdiction, or if the marriage with
such other person take place elsewhere, shall
thereafter live or cohabit with such othel
person, in such Territory, or other place
over which the United States possess exelu
sive jurisdiction, the former husband or wife
being alive, he, she, or they, so offending
shall, on conviction thereof, pay fine no
exceeding five hundred dollars, and be i'm
prisoned not less than two years nor mor'
than five years"
A number of leading men of both Houses
have given it as their opinion that the bill
establishes polygamy in the District of Co
lumbia, the exception as to it having tn
effect of an enabling proviso. The delicat
subject is now in the hands Of the Senate

senator wndo's Speech-rho Presidency

Senator Wade's Speech-thc Presidency.
The late speech of Senator Wade is very
warmly commended by the press and peo-
pie all over the North and West, and the
St. Louis Democrat in publishing it not
only speaks of the speech as trenchant and
comprehensive, but adds:
For bold utterance and clear statement,
there is no political celebrity of the day more
distinguished than the Ohio Senator. In
the speech in question, he not only express
es the views of the Republican party on
the question of slavery in the Territories,
but avows the purposes which it entertains
on that subject. If others can boast of be-
ing the chief representatives Of that party
in an intellectual sense, he is eminently enti-
tied to be considered the representative of
its Willis power of volition, and its firm
ness of resolution. A slave code immedi-
ately for the Territories is the proposition
involved in the resolutions, which were un-
der discussion, and it requires no prophet
to foretel that National Democratic vic
tory in the approaching Presidential cleo
ton would be the herald of that odous
measure. We commend the speech to all
who require light on this topic.
A letter from an observer at Washington
to the Pittsburgh Journal dated March 10th
after speaking of Mr. Seward as standing
at the head Of the Republican party and
that the chances favor his nomination, re-
marks:
For the last few weeks new name has
been very much talked of in connection
with the Republican nomination for Presi-
nent. 1t is that of old Ben. Wade, the Sen.
ator from Ohio. He, too, has the manly ell
ements fitting him for the crisis. For old
fashioned, straightforward integrity; for
strong, rude eloquence; for tirmness of will,
determination of purpose and down right
courage, not to be coaxed and wheedled,
or bullied from his course, he cannot be too
strongly commended. The same elements
of character, so signally Distinguishing Gen
eral Jackson, are found in Mr.. Wade, whilst
he has vastly more learning and accom-
| plshments as a statesman. He would
make great President. In the conversa-
tional circle of Presidential speculation, he
has many warm friends, and his claims loom
up. Stranger events have come to pass,
than would be the election of Ben Wade to
the Presidency. He is fitted for it, and
eminently so, at this crisis.

ssSNAK! SNAK!,

Some time ago, literary newspaper was
started in Cleveland called the Western
Cleaner, and edited by Walter H. Shupe,
formerly of Mansfield. The paper became
mainly celebrated for its "brag," its cheap
ness, aud its magnificent portrait of Ossa-
watomie Brown; the editor distinguished
by his attempting to cowhide brother ed
itor, and in conclusion the paper has extin-
guished itself by the following dodge to
maintain its equilibrium. The editor has
sent "private circular" to the various dem
ocratic post-masters, requesting them to
use their powerful influence in extending
the circulation of the Cleaner among all
classes of people. The "dockyment" says: !:
With this view, that is, to get up a dem
ocratic paper that shall rival the Tribune
in circulation, and in the coming campaign
spread political truths broadcast, and with
uniformity throughout the land, and that
shall be so sound and National in its views
as that it will be as welcome in Massachu-
sets as in Louisiana, thatshall be so freighted
with news and healthy miscellany, that any
family can with profit receive it, and at such
price that all can afford to take it. The
Western Cleaner was established in 1859,
at Cleveland, o., as an "Independent pa
per. For reasons that are Obvious it has
so far maintained and will continue until at.
ter the nomination at Charleston to main
tain strict neutrality in politics, pledging
itself only, rs it now does, to support the
platform and nominee of that Convention.
\
Now if you feel interested in the success
Of your party as you doubtless do, you can
readily see the power that can be welded
at your Office by such paper, reaching and
i1uencing as it can readily be made to scores
of persons and voters who take none and
would take no other paper. The best plan
to organize a club is found to be this: In
all cases work like the beaver QUIETLY BUT
VIGOROUSLY. Confer with few confden-
tial and reliable prominent Democrats about
you and with their consent take subscrip-
tions for year if you can, and when you
cannot do that, propose TO parties that they
can, where 20 are ordered at once take
the paper for one month at five cents, and
at the end of that time discontinue or pay
the balance of one year, i.e, forty-fve cents
and continue.
He then lays down the claw and the
prophets" to the Democratic postmasters,
urging upon them as their duty their prompt
action in this matter.
Although we have no idea that W. H. s.
or the w. G. will set the world on fire; pre-
vent the election of naughty black repub-
lican, or counteract the baneful effects ofthe
N. Y. Tribune, or the FREMONT JOURNAL,
yet we call the attention of our Republican
friends to the fact, that they may not be deceiv-
ed in subscribing for it under the supposition
that it is family paper when it is loco
foco sheet of the vilest hue. When paper
resorts to such means-deception-to main
tain itself the sooner it ceases to exist, the
better.

CONCLUSION.
have thus for your entertainment al
luded to few incidents relative to the past
and present of our town. The task is inn
perfectly executed, but it may little while
preserve some incidents from total oblivion,
and be suggestive TO others to preserve, in
our Young Mems Lyceum, other and more
interesting events as they occur from time
to time, and when change has lent enchant-
ment to the history of what we are now
doing, some data Of comparison and prog
ress may be found.
have said that our town was theatre
two miles square; so it is. Not stage,
however, where only the puny conceptions
Of the human mind are delineated. But
theatre erected when it was said: "Let
the dry land appear" and it was so. 1t has
been furnished and superintended by the
Almighty. For untold ages, in long sue
cession, various races, nations, tribes and
generations Of men and women have acted
here.
The Great Author of all things still owns
and superintends it. His sun and moon, and
stars aud sky, with ever-varying gorgeous
clouds, light and adorn it STILL His hills
and valleys, trees and flowers, and river,
still enliven the scenery. He introduces
the actors in successive generations, and
assigns to each separate part to act. His
winter purifes and ventilates; His spring
revives and re-animates, adorning with fresh
garlads; His summer crowns it with gor-
geous greeuness and beauty; and His au-
tumn brings rich bread and fruit and wine
for the refreshment of His actors. He has
left with us His ever faithful monitor and
His written holy will, and rules of action
whereby all may learn how to improve and
obtain Hisapprobation. And when the part
Of each is ended, He calls away the actors.
The stage dress given to the soul for the
rehearsal of its life part here, is carried to
the tomb, and the tutored sou! crowned and
robed in immortality goes forth to act oter-
nally on spiritual, higher and better
stage, in the moro immediate presence Of
the Great Author of Creations drama and
Supreme Judge Of all acts and actors
May we find many star performers there,
whose robes and crowns are jeweled all over
to dazzling brightness with deeds of love
and truth and goodness, done in our town.

The Election in Connecticut.

Wherever the democracy feel that their
cause is in danger of being defeated by the
people whose right and privilege it is to de-
eide the matter, they at once resort to the
importation of illegal non-residents. In
scores of instances we could tell of this way
of proceeding. In regard to the late con-
test in Connecticut the Hartford Couront
says that the illegal votes pOlled for the
Shams last Monday in the cities of Connec-
ticut was not less than Three thousand,
and concludes:
ave shall have one advantage in the
November election for President: All the
States vote on the same day, and the voters
will be wanted in New York City, every
man of them, if the Democracy entertain the
faintest idea of carrying the Empire State
so shall we escape the honor Of being assist
ed by Woods tools in our comparatively
unimportant State The Democrats will
not be able TO poll so large a vote in No
yember as they have polled this Spring
That may be counted on for certain"
