When that famous Hosea C7em Dean, prom.
inent Douglas elector Tor the State Of Iowa,
made show Of his ,eloquence at Pella, be, a.
more of that ilk, charged the Repablican party
with negro equality, and for proof, he named
some Eastern States, vhcpe at present Repuhli-
canian u doninant % giving The privilege Of
voting TO cclored perons 10 well as 70 white
men. II Dean was the only Individual Who made
such . charge, We would consider it a beneath
our notice, knowing that no one believes what
he says; decent men Of his own party being die
gusted q his vulgarity and blackguardism. Il is
not, however, confined 70 this person. .ssq '.I''9
Since the organization Of the Republican par
ty, NO State in the Union has amended its Con-
stitaton % aa to give the righ. Of voting 70 ne.
groes, and that alone is sufficient enough to re-
pei the charge, because no perty can be made
responsible for any law passed before such par
y had existence. It is, however, most shame
Eal and dishonorable act, If the party making the
charge is guilty Of the very thing slandsrously
|astened upon another party. 5T

lied during his term Of service, the Vice Presi-
lent would have taken his place, and q colored
ady would have been the mistress Of the White
iouse and presided at the levees Of the President

'250 worth Of property. Are the Republicans
esponsible for that? Martin Van Burcn, the |
reat Democratic leader Of that State, was Presi-
ent Of the Constitutional Convention, and that
on vention was largely Democratic when that
egro.equality was adopted.
When the State Of Ohio extended the right
voting to colored persons the Democratic
arty held the power and framed the Constitu-
on which conferred that right upon the colored

THAT party was dominant, Overwhelmingly DOM

And even when Massachusetts, made law,
'nferring upon colored persons the right Of cit
enship and Of the elective franchise, the Dem
ratio party held the reins of Government.
What party tried to introduce the same thing
Wisconsin? No party had been in power
ere but the Democratic party. The people Of
at State, however, .repudiated that Democratic
eme Of negro equality ard amalgamation, and
tied the proposition down. II
Let any Democrat now point out the act of
y Republican Legislature or State, conferring
e right Of citizenship and suffrage upon the me-
o. II, therefore, all the laws in existence are
Ade BY the Democratic party, and il = really
ch an outrage, Republicans are not y blame;

The only excuse that can be made for laying
gro equality at the door Of the Republicans is, II
at before the Presidency Of General Jackson,
e party acknowledging Thomas jefferson a.
under, Was called the Republican party in op-
'sition to the Federalists. So far % negro
uality and amalgamation is concerned, the Re-
Iblican party has not done single act favoriDg

position against the introduction Of slavery in
e Territories is certainly not conducive to me-
o-equality and analgamation, because that OPP
'sition leaves the negroes and mulattoes, and
ladroons and octoroons in the Sammy South in
At now no much exalted and contended for

m makes negro-equality and amaleamation al
ost impossible. But such result 10 probably
