whit the Radicals Desire.

In late debate in Congress Mr.. Frs
sENDEN, Radical Republican from Maine,
said:

far MS that question is concerned, that so

| wish to see slavery at an end when this
war shall be Mt an end, if it can be consti

Ia the cady part of the session, Mr..
CONWAY, the Radical Republican Member
of Congress from Kansas, said in a speech
in the House:
"For one shall not vote another dol.
lar or man for the war until it assumes
different standing, and tends directly to
an anti-Slavcly result. Millions for free
dom but not one cent for slavery"
Such speeches need no comment.

The Whisky Rebellion,

we think every man, not absolutely a
monomaniac on the subject of slavery,
will see at glance the proprety and
justice of the comparison of the follow
ing short and pithy extract which we
make from an article in the Harrisburgh,
Pa, Patriot and Union:
We hada rebellion once in Pennsyl.
vania. 1t extended over number of
Western counties. 1t was caused by
whisky, or more properly speaking tax
on whisky. Washington summoned an
army and marched westward, but before
he reached the scene of the revolt, the
rebels dispersed, and the rebellion came
to an end The President was satisfied
with this result lie did not say, this
rebellion was caused by whisky, and we
cannot hope for peace while there is q
gallon of whisky distilled in Pennsyl-
vania." He did not cndeavor to remove
the cause by dcmolishing all the distil-
lcrics in Pennsylvania. He did not say
that while whisky continued to be distii-
led there was reason to anticipate peri
odical rebellions. His business was to
enfore the laws. lie did that promptly
and summarily. and considered the work
finished. Now whisky was undeniably
the cause of this rebellion. Had there
been no whisky there would have been
no rebellion Whisky was as much the
cause of that rebellion as slavery is of
this. We have never had another rebel
lion ON account of whisky, and when
this rebellion is put down we will never
have another rebellion on account of sla-
very.

no Party. OF Course.

Last fall the Republicans said all
party lines werc dropped for the single
purpose Of preserving the Union. The
State officers and members OF the Lceis-
laturc, We were told, knew no party
They were to lcgislate for the preservation
Of the Union, and all party considerations
were to be thrown aside. Many honest
Democrats thought these representations
true; but alas, how sadly falliJlc is hu-
man nature, and the mole especially is it
80 in the Black Republican party. No.
sooner was the election over than the no
party Un;on-party commenced caucus
ing and figuring TO control the elections,
appointments and political powers of
the state. The first day the members Of
the Legislature met in Columbus they
met and caucuscd as party. Their
every act since the Legislature met has
been the act Of the Republican party. The
election Of Ben WADE, which will take
place in a few days, should tc enough to
convince the most crcdulous that bigger

controlling element in the Ohio Icgisla-
ture. Ben. WADE-a drunkard. black.

honest and unsuspecting men into the
loathsome embrace of the Black Rcpub-

More llAf:llny.

The majority of the Committee, in the
Legislature, appointed to report bill for
districting the State for Congressional
purposes, have reported bill eminently
worthy of the present infamous logsla.
turc. 1t is just what might be expected
Of men who hold their positions through
hypocrisy, fraud and deceit The bill
gives the Democrats two districts and the
Republicans seventeen. Stark. WAYNE,
Rlchland, Ashland, Crawford and other

tho Reserve that their Democratic major |
itics may be swallowed up. Holmes is !
joined with Tuscarawas, Coshocton,
Harrison and Jefferson, making district
extending from the Ohio river to nearly
the middle OF the State. We ask any
honest man, no matter what his politics
may be, to take his map and see the shape
Of this district, which has been formed
to swallow up the Democracy of Holmes
County.

Abolition Lecturers nt the Smith,
sOuiau Institute.

The Washington correspondent of tho
New York Post mentions among the lee.
turcrs at the Smithsonian Institute, beside
Wendell Phillips, Rev. II. Mathison.
William Goodell, Gerret Smith, and last
though not least, William Lloyd CARR
son-all well known as violent Abolition
leaders of the most radical and disunion
stamp.
With these men Republicans, a year
ago, as some of them do yet, Indignantly
denied having any association. Now these
same radical Aboitioniats, who have been
laboring for years to involve the country
IN civil war on account of slavery, are
prominently brought forward as the
prophets and apostles of the Republican
faith.
The object in having these furious rad
icals lecture in Washington at this time,
and be Honized there, is obvious enough
1t is to prepare the President, the Con-
gress and the people for that grand con-
spiracy against the restoration of the
Union as it was" of which Phillips, Gar
rison, Smith, and their associates, are the
leading spirits. 1t is now assuming for
midable dimensions, and all loyal Union
men must unite to check its further pro-
grcss, or these Abolition pilots will,
through the agency of Republican and
bogus union organizations, take the helm
and ruin the country.-StateSmon.
