The Cadiz Democratic sentinel. [volume] (Cadiz, Ohio) 1854-1864, 1863-09-09

We did not know whether the party
had sold themselves to the ''free Amer
leans of African descent" or not, but
supposed that they had, as the "gem-
men" had been solicited to join the
procession. This is, We believe, the
first time the Abolition leaders have
taken the ''dsrkey" into full fellow
ship in Cadiz "first circles" Some
of them claim that it is "John Browns
soul still marching on" Perhaps it is.
Browns mantle, as he entered the
"pearly gates" must have descended
upon some Of the negro-worshiping
clan.
There was no enthusiasm manifest
ed in the meeting. The tame affair
showed they had no heart in it. 1t
was in strange contrast with the Dem
ocratic meeting of the Monday pre-
vious, when the noise of the jubilant,
shouting Democracy could be heard
like the reverberating thunder.
After dinner the speaking commen-
ced. Charles Anderson was the first
orator. We had expected to hear
gentleman in Mr.. Anderson. But in
his first remarks he told the audience
that he had tried to be a gentleman
heretofore, but he would not try any
more. The people would soon have
discovered that without his telling
them. 1t was patent fact. He eclip-
sed all the blackguardism we have ev-
er heard. He told them the war must
be conducted for REVENGE, and laugh
ed to seorn all teachers of morality
who would preach against vengeance.
The "shoddy's" are welcome to all the
comfort they can get from Anderson's
speech. He attempted no argument,
but assumed positions which all his au-
dience knew to be false, and acclaimed
from them.
Rev. Jno. B. Clark was laboring
under severe attack of "nigger on
the brail," as all preachers are who
turn politicians. We believe he has
bid adieu to the gospel of peace, as he
makes MORE MONEY as politician.
He wanted his audience "drafted into
the army and then he wanted some
of the dear "Americans of African de-
scent" to serve with them.
OF course, Gee Volney Dorsey must
have his turn, and of course he must
tell them he was ''life-long Demo-
crat," or as the Cleveland Leader
Zone of his present supporters) calls
him, Democratic Abolitionist.
He forgot to tell them, however, thai
he was a persistent office-seeker-that
he would join every and any party tina
would give him office-how that the
Democrats had ran him for Congress
so often-that every time they would
run him they would get beat, and eve
ry time they would run any other NAL
they were victorious-how he had sen
in to the committee on resolutions a
the Democratic State Convention hell
at the beginning Of the war, strini
of ultra disunion resolutions which h
wished the committee to adopt, an
which the committee treated wit
scorn and disdain-how they got tire
of him and told him they would no
run him for office any more, and ho'
he THEN sold himself to the Abolition
ists-he forgot to tell them all this
But it was useless-they KNEW it be
fore.
Col. Poorman gave rehearsal {
