Alter lean AA"o I."i-. "a on old farmer
went up to him and congratulaaS III .''' il.sa
doing some good. Dean was curious to know
in what particular direction. The farmer
replied that two of his noighbors had been
undecided as to how they should vote until
they had heard his speech-now they We're
going for Lincoln. 1t is also said that an old
Dutch Greek Democrat, who came in with
the procession from that place, became highly
indignant at Deans disgusting fanfaronade,
and said, ''if that was Democracy, he would
never vote it," and that he had rather be, at
home and hear his calves bawl. And, suiting
the action to the word, threw the hickory
bushes out Of his wagon, and left with the
determination of voting for Lincoln. It is
estimated that Dean made about50 Republican
votes by his speech here, Friday" q 20

JUST LIKE HrM.-Legrand Byington chal-
lenges Gov. Kirkwood to stump the southern
part of TIE State with him, but requests
forty eight hours between each appointment
to attend to business. That's beautiful
proposition! But it's just like the old skin
flint Although one Of the wealthiest men in
Iowa, he declined being elector, because Of
the time and expense of canvassing the State.
Now, he has mind to take tour in his
capacity as sharper and driver of small
bargains in tax titles, and wishes to gain re-
spectabilty by travelling with Gov. Kirkwood
Of course, the Govern L will descend to no
such mental service.

VINO ARE AMALGAMArIoNIsTs?- THE DEM
ocrats (says an exchange) have an idea that
their political brethren in the slave States are
not amalgamating with the negroes as rapidly
as we have represented. We have no wish
to wound the feelings Of a party so pure and
sensitive, and one so opposed to negro
equality so we will state few facts taken
from the census returns Of 1850, and leave
the Democracy to make the application. The.
mulatto population in Virginia numbered
70, 775 in 1850. The Democratic vote in 1852
was 1855. In North Carolina, the mulatto
population in 1850 was 81, O20. The Demo
cratic vote, two years later, was SO, 744. In
Louisiana, the mulattoes numbered 33,9lS in
1850, and the Democratic vote in 1855 was
1851. Mississippi had 20,3G5 mulattoes in
1850, and in 1852 the Democratic vote was
27,S76. We might extend this comparison;
but it is sufficient to say that, in 1850, the
slave States had one mulatto to every Is
WITHSTAND in the free States there was l
mulatto to every 235 whites; and these mu
lattoes in the free States were almost entirely
of Southern origin. Comments unnecessary.

democratic Rally.-Our Democratic
brethren are to be addressed this evening at
Coles Hall by Hon Charles H. Larrabee.-
We cheerfully give them the benefit of this
notice in the Republican, in hopes that it may
be the means of adding materially to the num-
Der of persons present, to hear what our distn-
guished Representative in Congress may have
to say. We hope that every Republican in
town, who is not otherwise engaged, will make
it point to go and see what the little Horizon
joker has to offer, and learn, if possible, what
the grounds upon which he bases his claim
to reelection. Our adopted fellow citizens
should also turn out, no matter whether Repub-
hcans or Democrats for Larrabee may possibly
enllghten them as to the why and wherefore of
his voting last winter for Know Nothing
Speaker of the House of Rep He undoubtedly
can explain to their entire satisfaction, his
course upon that question. Administration
Democrats should also be there for he NAV saw
q good word for sold Buck y as he did in his
speech last winter He will probably tell
all about the purity of the old mans character
the lncorruptibility of his administration; the
glorious achievements it has made; the ortho-
doxy OF its Democracy, and its magnificent
beauties on general principles. All these he
talked about and applauded last winter and
why should he not sing praises to them now /?
Then he very likely viii tell, too, about the be-
nign and moral influence of Slavery-what a
noble and virtuous institution it is-how that
he. if he lived south. would own slaves and not
Il ]
wrong in the sight of God or man. Ifhe had time,
and Vatertown ,cere located upon the line Of the
La Crosse Rail Road he probably would say a
word about the great measure of relief he has
promised to propose for them this winter in Con-
gress, by diverting the Land Grant from its
original purposes, to the settlement of the Mort
cages given in the aid of that road. Mortga-
gors on the Madison Road, fer instance may
get an explanation from the little gentlemen as
to why they are exempted from the operation of
any such movement, and why the La Crosse
Mortgagors should be so favored, and the nm
fortunate men who have mortgaged their farms
for the benefit of other roads, should be tsleft
out in the wet" This is an interesting theme
and we trust ''the honorable gentlemen from
Wisconsin" win give il thorough ventilation.
There are other matters We could suggest
that probably will receive his attention but we
are hurried and have no time to go into further
particulars at present. We can only say that
there should be general attendance of our
citizens. and we trust there will be- Let the
