From the Quincy Herald
The Negro Invasion of Illinois.

The abolition papers try to make light of the
importation of whole brigades of free aegroes
into this State They tell their readers il ism t
expected these negroes will remain here always.
No one OF them, however, has suggested plan
by which they are TO be got rid of, after they
once get a fooihold here. These abolition poll
tcians know that the people of this State are OPP
posed to this negro immigration. They know
that the voters of the State will not tolerate it,
They know that the people will vote down the
men who sustain and encourage il. Hence, they
resort to many little petty subterluges to blind
fold and deceive the honest voters But they
will find the people not SO easily humbugged.
The people know that it is the Republican party,
and the Republican leaders who are bringing
these negroes into the State. The people know
that Republican Governor has the pc wer to put
a stop to, and that he refuses to do t.
The people know that il is the duty of the
Governor to see that the Constitution and laws
are enforced. They know that Republican
Governor permits the Constitution and the laws
to be trampled down aud ruthlessly violated in
order that the State may be overrun with ne
groes. The people know that Democratic Go
vernon would enforce the Constitution and laws
aud thus put a stop to the importation of negroes
With all these facts before them. the people will
settle the account with the Republican politicians
at the polls. They will put men into ofice-nto
all the Offices To be hlied-whO are opposed to
these schemes of the abolit0nists tor driving out
free white labor, and filling It's place with the
labor OF free negroes. Free white labor is what
the people OF Illinois want. M Il IL Is what they
will have-the right OF the poor white man To Ia.

bers of the Legislature. 10 repeal the personal lib
erty bills and all multiplying laws of the State, and
TO induce the Legislature To recommend some
reasonable adjustment Co the national difficulties
He boldly turned mis- back upon the "blood let

unconstitutional schemes ever since While ac
tive i'm support of the Government, aud efficient
in raising men and money for the war. he has 20
all times and under all circumstances maintained
the doctrine that il must be carried on within the
Constitution and not IN violation OF t. In his
speech at Jackson he expressed the exact position
he has occupied. He said:
Il am for the Union unqualifeily, but while
We are aboring TO put down the rebellion. we
must also put down that other heresy which de-
clares that the Constitution is not strong enough
TO crush out the rebellion"
His record. therefore. upon the entire question
of the war, is right We have no doubt that he
will beat Governor Blair so effectively that that
sanguinary Executive will not have an oppor-
tunity To put his French gullotine in operation.
The other nomisees the ticket men whom
the Chandler and Blair organ OF this city has
pronounced unexceptonable, and will undoubted-
ly receive the popular support
The platform adopted by the convention is ex-
acty what il ought 10 be- and j. substantially the
New York Democratic Platform.
The tieke, i placed before the people under
the most favorable auspices. Ii will undoubtedly
sweep the State The radicals are already in
mortal dread Of IT, aud are straining every nerve
To avert their almost certain doom. But they
will be beaten just as certainly As every con-
servative man turns out and supports the ticket.
