ToN CoaWIN ON THE HOMESTEAD LAW
Tom Corwin has been re-nominated for
Congress. At the time, he made an eloquent
speech, from which we make an extract:
"What do the Republican party propose to
do with the public lands? They propose to
give quarter of section of them to every
poor man and woman, provided they will 60
to work. They hold that the public lands
be.ong to the people Of the United States.
The Republican party passed bill through
the House, drafted in accordance with their
principle, but in the Senate bill of very
different kind was passed. The House bill
gave the land to the working man the Senate
bill made him pay for it. But Mr.. Buchanan
vetoed even that; he's the poor mans friend; +;
God bless you, he don't want you to become
rich and 90 to the devil. But what is the
reason that the Southern Democracy would
not agree to the bill as it passed the House !?
Unquestionably, their opposition to it was
consistent with their system of Government.
They want these lands to be sold, and they
want the money to be put in the public
treasury; and they also want the duty to be
taken off foreign goods. What is quarter
of section of land to them? They wouldn't
have it-at least they wouldn't thank you for
it. The STAKEHOLDER must have two thousand
acres of land to work his niggers ON. But
the poor man-the young man who has just
got married, perhaps, who has no land-looks
about him for q, home. He wants to work
but he wants to work on his own farm, and
to him quarter of section of land is al
sufficient. The Republican party sympathizes
with this class of society. They say to thes'
young men, Go out in the West and settle OF
some Of Uncle Sans land, and work it ant

DOUGLAS CONVICTED BY HIMsELF.-The TWO
brief extracts which we present below from
two of the speeches of Douglas, exhibit his
inconsistency and dishonesty in tAe most
strlking light, aad prove him to be tricky,
unscrupulous demagogue:
From Douglas speech at Springfield, ILL.,,
in 1e49:
"All the evidences of public opinion at that
day seemed to indicate that this 1.-THE Missouri
Compromise had become canonized in the
hearts of the American people as sacred
thing, which no ruthless hand would ever be
reckless enough to disturb
From Douglas speech at Providence, August
Sd, 1860:
"My friend over there-friend or enemy
as the case may be-wants to know something
about the Missouri Compromise. [Cheers.
I have not the slightest objection to telling
him all he desires to know upon thatquestion
brought in the bill to repeal the Missour
restriction"
Muscatine weekly journal. [volume] (Muscatine, Iowa) 185?-1890, 1860-09-14

w At a recent Republican meeting, at
Beverly, N. j., Morton McMichael, of the
Philadelphi North American, said: a
" But there is going to be great change
as sure as stand here looking in your faces,
and Abraham Lincoln will be the next Pres
ident of the United States. (Cheers. That's
so! IA voice, 1t can't be rubbed out ]
No! / like that phrase-it can't be rubbed
ont T: WE'LL rub it in from now till next
November" [Cheers and laughter.]
The speaker then proceeded to show the
fallacy of the assumption that Bell will get
the vote of Pennsylvania. With the highes,
regard for Mr.. Bell, and not in spirit Of
depreciation, he would say it, that Joh1
Bell would not get 500 votes there.

BEN SAMUEls.--Wbile the Methodist Con-
ference was in session in this city, our Ben
was smitten with sudden and violent fit Of
piety, and, amid the excitement at public
.ne-.."s ....., went so far as to make Stephen A.
Douglas life member of the parent Mission
Society The business Of missionary societies
is to Disseminate the Gospel among Pagans,
and our Ben--who opposes the reading OF the
Bible in the public schools of Dubuque
wants the heather to have it. Inconsistency
thou art jewel!'
But what does Douglas care about being a
member Of Protestant Missionary Society
douglas, whose solcitude is all on the side
of Papal despctism, and who is supported By
the Catholic Priesthood Of the country! He
will no doubt regard it as great insult to be
made member of Protestant Missionary
Society, and will hardly thank Ben for his
oficiousness Dubuque Sun.

E PLUEiBUs UNUM.-Yancey, with all his
tragedy, has a keen perception OF humor, ard
gives the following anecdote for the benefit
of the Douglssites, who have been colleaeu-
ing with the Bell men -
The hour is closing. only wish to say
this: Let Us look where the true Democraey v
is-let US look to where the old banner floats
let us see who are the boilers, and what
their object is, and see if there be not
among them an animal that has ring on
his tail, and see if you can't see the coon
skin sticking out now. Some of those Doug
las fellows have got the paint in their brush
es, and they are trying to paint the fellows
now. The Douglas leaders are willing to do
it. They remind me of an anecdote. There
was shoemaker, an Irishman, and in put.
ting up his sign he had painted on it a boot
and shoe, with the motto of bis native
country, "Erin 60 bragh." A Know-Noth,
| ing came along who wanted to have his boots
mended. He saw the sign, and would moi
have them mended by this man, and he teld
him so, and gave his reason why. The
Irishman went home and told his wife, and
| saws he, "what shall do. You are wise
than /, anyhow" "Well,' said she, "do 20,
| mix his sign with your sign. Go and put OF
your sign, Erin Go Unum, E Pluribu
| Bragh!'" So it is with Mr.. Douglas and MI
Bell; they have got on their sign, ''Erin &
Unum, E Pluribus Bragh!" 1t is neithe
Irish-it has not the genuine brogue {
