'idge Democrat, is to speak in

Mr.. j. b. Steedman's visit to Han

,heerless enterprise. We do not

ments out. We do know that he
had an appointment for Cannons
burg on Tuesday afternoon, and ono
at Arlington on Tuesday night, ye,
he let them go by default, and spent
his time in seeing the sights about
findlay. lie had also an appoint.
nent to speak in Findlay on Wednes'
DAY evening, hut was totally invis-

of our city OF Tuesday. 1t is hard
to tell how far he may run before he
gets over hIs fright.

Douglas, in his speech, in the
Senate, on the 10th of June last
boldly declared that his policy, and
his policy atone, had converted free
territory into slave territory, thing
that ha6 not before been done since
the days of tho Revolution. That,
is what has been accomplished by
abandoning the policy of our early
fathers, which kept our territories
tree. How do you like iii

Hancock county, ready for tho elect.
