THE FILLMORE MEN

The Buffalo Commercial, the organ in New

OF Two candidates-one at Baltimore Of SUD.
posed free soil sympathies, for the purpose c1
catching votes in the North, and another at
Richmond Of ultra pro-slavery notions, for sa.
wing the tire-eaters and slave code men, the
election will be thrown into the House-points
out the following method Of preventing such
a calamity:
i will readily be seen tbat the only way to
defeat this conspiracy will be to vote for the
Republican candidate and to elect him. To
vote for Douslas in New York, Penusylyania,
lndiann and illinois, effectually promotes the
puns Of the conspirators. With a secession
ticket in the field. the Southern States will be
nearly all taken from Douglas, and be will be
utterly without the shadow of q chance Of be

or three States iron Lincoln, this "intrieue" of
the secesslonists will be made sucoee.tul In
tue event OF Democratic aplit it will therefore
% seen that the Douglas men in the. North, by
Keeping their favori!e in the canvass will while

cone their alies:

the allies Of the allies.

RIGHT OF PETITION,

Nj: Senator Fitch # Indiana, backed up by
Senator Mason, has been guilty Of an ou' rage for
Which no punishment tan -be loo severe: Mr..
Sumner, the other doy, had occasion 10 pre-
sent TO The body Of which lie is member, a
respectful petition touching q matter Of; M
ti:nal concern. The presentation Of tie paper
was in proper aud respectful manner; but
Mr. Fitch objected to its reception, because
it was entrusted 10 the Senator from Massa-
chusstts, who had as Mr.. Fitch alleged, been
guilty of presenting petition Of certain ne
groes! So, not only it is wrong per Sc to listen
to the earnest renonstrances Of persons Of

qualities himself from acting in behalfof white
men in any case whateveri OF such is modern

men, physlcally, than their own performances
ever can do, in disgusting them mentally and
morally. Both are monstrous bad looking fes-
, 1860-06-19

to take up the glove and break a lance in such
cause.
The reason Of the opposition, OIL the Part Of
tue Aristocraey, to tbe repeal, is nrst, that it
will cheaper newspapers, periodicals ard
books, and Thereby. extend: their circulation
among the masses; aud tho more the latter
reg, the nefe theyfxill comprehend theiF
rights. Kaowledge .ts povsE An-,en1ight-
ened people and privileged Aristocracy ar,
incompatible. Secondly, the laboring masses,
by means Of inposts, and indirect taxes, are
obliged 10 shoulder most Of The burl1iea If
,G6gernment and pay the interest on tho
tremendous National debt. If The paper duty
il REPEALED, It viii Fo1l large portion Of tic !
seven millions fran the backs Of the labo.ing
classes upon those Of the landed Aristocracy.
Thirdly, 1t will lead to- tbs abolition of other
oppressive inpos.s aud e1cises upon thep epeccs,
saries Of life, and compel the property holders
and capitalists to supply the money to CARRY en-
the Government. The Aristocracy plunged
the Nation into its vast and crushing War
debt; needlessly and wickedly contracted two
hundred millions Of it to put down the Aucri-
cans and sir hurdre1 millions to put down The
Republicans Of France and restore the hated
Bourbons. This same Aristocracy fill Ill the
lucrative offices. and monopolize the posts Of
profit and honor in Army and Navy, State and
Church. They arc the ta1cate1s, and the
drones in the industrial hivve-lhe leeches una
the body polite. They originally seized upon
a1l the real estate Of Great Britain and e,.-
tailed it upon their own families; and these
tlsurpers now resist all concession to tic
masses, who for thousand years. have been
beasts Of burden for the oligaschy.
But this nineteenth century is the era at
loast, Of the white mans emancipation. Light
and knowledge can no longer be withheld
from the people. TIE Steam Engine, lie
Rallroad, the Telegraph and the Power Press
are the tools Of Republicanism, which break
