Daily Ohio statesman. [volume] (Columbus, Ohio) 1855-1870, 1861-12-17

Colonel FoREEr, of the Philadelphia Prss'' u
appesrs, has very mOdestly taken It upon himself
70 advise the people of Ohio who they should
elect for their United States Senator to hii the
place Of BEN. WADE. And who, reader, 90 you
suppose he recommends as the mani No otner
than the same WADE, whom the people OF ONO
above all things desire to get rid OF. AND "ny
is he anxious for WADE's electioni The f'es'

Who sbAll represent Ohio in the Senate OF

,he Government--he must not be partizan.
HIa record on the question Of the Union must
be without talnt and beyond all suspicion. we
want no doubtful men--for he who hesitates is
aeaInst us. p We must have q Senate and
House capable OF appreclating and meeting
every issue as 10 arises, and In selecting sena'
tors and Members, the people must exercise
sleebless caution. We do not know VINO VIII

" RESPECTED by his enemies In the recent
| Ohio election, Senator Wade was foremost
among thoae advocating o union with the patri
otic Democrats. To his counsel may be attriD
uted the glorious loyal triumph which mad'
David Tod Governor Of Ohio. The loyal Dem
ocrats owe him debt Of gratitude, Wnion wy
hope to see acknowledged by his unanimou'
re- selection to the Senate.
| II Col. FoRnEY was about TO recommend
gentleman to the people of Ohio, who was
stranger to them, come persons might regart
this as describing the proper man. But mr.
WADE is known here to be one Of the most pit
ter and malignant abolition partisans In tn'
State, and was always so considered, even b.
Mr.. FoANEY, before he joined the Republican
party, and was elected to Office by 1t, as
compensation for his labOrs in defeating Doua
Las, while pretending to be in favor Of his cleo
tion. Now, he is cheek BY iowl with WADE
and desires him reelected
The loyal Democrats owe him nothing. Ht
has been lsboring for years TO bring about col
| lision between abolitlonism and the slave-hold
ing States. His speech, delivered in Maine in
1855 lf We recollect rlght), clearly indicated
bis desires. To assert that BEN, WADE Is nc
partisan, only exposes FoREEY's ignorance oi
the man, or his desire to mislead people by mis-
representation. A more malignan. partisan
than WADE does not live This lie his known
character in Ohio.
The Press says 1t "is at liberty to speak to
Ohio about her next Senator" because "thers
is degree Of sympathy between her people
and ours-many parts of Ohio being cOlonized
by our citizens" etc. We can inform the Prss'
that those parts of Ohio that were colonized BY
Pennsy sylyanlans, are bitterly opposed to WADE
he has no support except in the Western Re
serve, which gave about thirty thousand major
ity against DOUGLAS. Col. FoRNEY will learn
that bis recent interested love of the Republi'
cans, and his desire to see rsntlng Abolitionists
elected from Ohio to the Senate, are perfectly
understood and appreciated. The day has
passed away when his advice to the Democracy
will have the least influence.
The loyal Democrats of Ohio will attend to
the election Of their Senator without his advice
being solicited, or regarded If volunteered.
