Galloway was free-soil Wing in former

eloquent speaker Ia the Buckeye State, and one

His competitor is slippery, servile crea.'
ture; gifted with great rolubility; win
dy as the month Of March; uncestain
trsacberous, e1otistical and corrupt. His rec
ord on the Lecompton question is Of a despica-
bic description. He Was 4 ming Arti-Le-
comptonite at first, and made speech in Con-
gress declaring,t ,tthat be hoped his right hand
might wlther it he voted for that iniquity. Not

cuniary Establishments, and the gift Of certain
Offices we're the agencies that wrought his vio-

crat. lately denounced him in public meeting
in Columbus, for not only having sold himself;
but having sworn falsely before the Covode
Investigating Committee in his vain
endeavor to conceal and cover up his
recrcancy. He was one Of the four meanest
doughfaces in the last session Of Congress-
The other three being Vallandighan, La1rabee
and dirty.work Logan. In some respects Cox
was the meauesI Of the four. He was the title
tattle who acted On al occasions as common in
former agairs! his Own State, in order to curry
favor with the staggering Flare. drives H.
was continually telling the flse-eAters that the
people Of Ohio were negro thieres-that theJ
helped fugitiyes to escape; repealed black laws;
passed personal liberty bills; refused to aid
| slave catchers, and would not open their jails
| to detaiu colored men that were being dragged
back to bondage. The poor lick-spittle sup.
posed he was ingratiatiug himself into The
friendship Of the lords Of the lash, By bearing
this sort Of testimony against thefreedom.loyicR
people Of Ohio. We very much misjudge the
temper Of the people of the Capital District if
Sam. Galloway don't place Sunset Cox where
Frank Blair has put Barrett. of St. Louis.
