Daily Ohio statesman. [volume] (Columbus, Ohio) 1855-1870, 1863-02-24


g. voLNEY DORSEY! "PhebusI what name
a ill the trump Of fsme!" Readerohave you
,yer seen a peacock spreading bis magnificent
feathers to the sun to attract the attention Of the
lpasaers by7 Have you ever observed "cock
Of the walk" jauntily stepping In front Of his
brood of female followers In search Of wormsf
Have you ever read the God-and. Liberty Pro
nunciamentos of Antonio dc Lopez SANTA ANNA9
Have you been electrified by hearing Bombas-
tes Furioso declaring, that no hands shall ever
those boots displace7 Have you perused in the
Ohio State Journal of last Saturday, the ego
tistical, red-peppery, salt.petery, gun-poWdery
appeal Of G. voLNEY DoRsRY to the Democracy
of Ohio7
One of the very "Conscript Fathers" s G.
VoLNEY. He says: "I have never deceived
you" Oh, no! he has been firm, never fell by
the way-side; not even when he was beaten for
Congress in q Democratic District, by his at
tempts to catch Abolition votes! oh, no! he
never deceived" anybody, even when elected
on the "Union" platform, he swallowed the
Emancipation Proclamation as essily as If it
had been delicious bivalpe! Oh, no! he 10 not
"gay deceiver" Oh, Doctor DoRsEY! g.
VoLNEY DORSEY! the thought of your second
term doth make you prate most glbly!
The Doctor tells us that "the material pros
perity of the North has not been retarded for q
moment" IL is astonishing how differently
from other people those who have good
offices and fat contracts look at this matter.
But, as the Proclamatory Treasurer says he sas
never "deceived" anybody, we must believe
him! He says in his manifesto, "tbis isno A6-
clifton war;" yet he says, WE WANT SECURITY FOR
THE FUTURE BY wlPING OUT THE cAUsE OF THE
wAR!" No deception in that, eh! &. VoLNEY
Dorsey, Doctor and Treasurer! Oh! No! But
have not the Treasurer's opinions changedi
Was he 'deceiving" the people in l6bO, when'
even in contravention of his views OF 1894, be
denounced AboIlhonism, and predicted the ter
rible results that would follow its triumph
Ave, DR.. G. V. D.-the thousands you spoke
with then, face to face" remember what you
said, and It is brought to their recollection by
the fact that yOu nov ignore the professions
you made at that time.
The Dsctor closes bic proclamatory proDun-
ciamento with threats. He is getting furious,
and invokes all the powers of Mars. He THREAT
EMS the Democracy with the piH and poDer Of
the soldiers in the field! The Treasurer says
"It will be fe9ful day, when the 'oiH and
yo,cer of that army is turned from Southern
rebels against Northern sympathizers." Very
ltrue, but who are the "sympdthizeTsY'
Are they CoNWAY and hi, Abolition
followers, who desire to recognize the inde'
pendence of the Southern Confederacy, at once
Are they GREELEY and his crew, who insist
upon calling tor foreign intervention, and arr
for submitting to the dictation Of the SoutherI
Ilesders7 Ah, we agree with the Doctor wbeI
he saws, it will be fearful day for the clan o
GREELEY, the followers of WADE, the adherent
of TBlp STEVENS, who are turning the war fo
the Union and the Constitution into crusade
|, for Negro Emancipation!
The Democracy have no fear Of the soldiers
Let the Abolitionists, who perverted the objec
of the war into one suited to their own pur
: poses, beoaYe. Bat let us say to G. VoLEE'
Dorsey, that his appeals to the Democracy only
, meet their derision-thst his threats only NEE
their contempt-and that his manifesto, bic
and beg for denomination, will not secure III
for, as the Abolitionists have used and desert
ed Gov. TOP, so they have used re. VoISEY'
and they won't take him at his bid
