Bingha nm Advocating A Mob L a w.
"A LtttIe RObesnierre

The Republicans who oppose mob
law, must hang their heads in shame,
when they learn that Hance, Barn
hill and other leaders invite man
here, to make a speech, who advocates
the horrible doctrines of Robespierre
in the French revolution. In proof,
read this: ,........
John A. Bingham, 1--WE will not call
him HoNoRABLE) made speech at
Toledo on Saturday. He said:
"The people seriously deliberate
about choosing him (Vallandigham)
as the Governor of their State. NV
God! they should hang him on the
first treeI The man who votes for him
is no better than he is, and both of
them are no better than JEFF Davis"
Mark this language-"the People"
Yet they are no better than jeff Da~
Wis, because they don't vote as this
hireling fanatic desires. John A.
Bingham says the PEOPLE are no bet
ter than Jeff Davis. Citizens of Ohio,
don't forget the man who says this!-

Lincoln's hangman. But wont he have

B% One of the greatest insults and
outrages ever offered to an aged and
respectable lady in d civilized com,
munity, was prepetrated by the abo-
lition procession on the occasion of the
abolition mass meeting at New Lisbon
on the 10th instant. 1t seems that
when the procession passed the resi-
dence of Mrs. Vallandigham, the
mother of Hon. G. L. ", that, by al
most common consent, the most hide
GUS yells and unearthly groans burst
forth from the inmates of nearly every
wagon and buggy, while the girls and
women sang the favorite air of the
campaign, "Val is a traitor" and this,
too, be it remembered, was done with
in the hearing of Mrs. Vallandigham.
Was ever greater insult offered to an
aged lady. So demon-like did such
conduct appear to be, that when it
was related to us in New Lisbon, on
the 18th, we thought it impossible
that men and women-however bitter
they might be in their political predi-
lections-could stoopto an act so low
and degrading 20 humanity as to open
ly ard willfully insult an aged and
respectable female: but on inquiry,
after returning home, we found it to
be true and the story, in part, corro-
borated by Mr.. Daniel McBane 1--WE
don't belong to any oath-bound Lea
que and, consequently, have no se>
crets to keep;l republican and
merchant on Main Street. But he
modified it some by saying that "the
groans werefor Vallandigham and not
for his mothef." Now, we would like
to know what insult Mr.. V. could re-
ceive by groans and songs and he hun
dreds of miles distant in foreign land,
Had he been present, or had the pro-
cesssion been passing his residence,
they might have INDUCED in such
mean and cowardly pastime with some
show of excuse, but under the circum-
all honest men must admit
that every insult offered to Mr.. V. on
that occasion, was indirectly, if |
not directly, offered to his mother and
the rest of the family who reside with
her. But suchisa part of the aboli-
ton programmeaofthis campaign and
we presume it nlnst be carriedsont or
they will not be considered 'sloyal
subject to the Lincoln administr alton. I"

RD~W We understand that the sew
eral Methodist clergymen connected
with the Ohio Conference, now in ses-
sion in Lancaster, will be tried for dis
loyalty. We shall have full reports
of the trials, and also of other matters
of interest connected with the present
session of the conference. - Ohio
State Journal, of the 18th inst.
The Journal seems well posted on
all church villiany as well as all other
kinds. The Methodist church, or
those who control it, are evidently de-
termined to destroy all the religious
character it ever had and convert it
into a mere political organization.-
The test of loyalty by these fanatical
blockheads, is voting for Vallandig-
ham! At Northwest Conference
lately, the same game was tried and
eleven preachers withdrew and avow-
ed their determination to vote for Mr..
Vallandig ham if alive, ifthat was the
course of the leaders of their church.
One at least of those who withdrew
was up to that time a bitter Republi-
can, but he would not stand such con-
duct as that. Go ahead fanatics.
P. S. Since the above was in type
we learn that the Conference at Lam
caster backed clear out from the pros
ecution and expulsion of preachers for
being Vallandigham men. The case
of Rev. Mr.. Griffin was referred to a
Committee, and the Committee report
ed against any action, though Mr..
Griffin was ready and willing for trial.
1t is reported that the whole question
was got rid ofby adopting resolution
against political preaching. This is q
new feature and will make such treas
enable papers as the Ohio State Jour
nal vince. A prominent preacher of
the Republican order, became alarmed
at the condition of the church politi-
cal, and warned his hearers to be-
ware of the explosion Of the mine un-
der them, and to let the matter pass
by.-T Crisis.

stand Firm, Falter Not an In
slant,

1t is we'll that the Democracy, these
times heed the above advice from the
noble, patriotic and exiled candidate
for Governor. The State to-day is
overwhelmingly Democratic--the spir-
it of our opponents is broken-despon-
dency is written ON their features. But
let not this slacken your efforts. Keep
your shoulders to the wheel; abate no
effort; relax not one muscle in the
great work before you. "Stand firm,
falter not an instant" and glorious
victory awaits you.

The Renu,ies Of Lincoln.

Nor must Uncle Sans webbed feet
be forgotten. At all the waters mar
gins they have been present, not only
in the deep sea, the broad bay and the
rapid river, but also the narrow, mud
dy bayou, and wherever the ground
was little damp, they have been and
made their tracks.
The above is one of these beautiful
figures of speech for which Lincoln is
so distinguished, and which almost
equal his philosophic profundity. For
instance, he said in his Message, in
December, 1862:
"It is more easy to pay large debt
than it is to pay a larger.
cit is easier to pay when you have
something to pay with than when you
have nothing"
These are strikingly new and start-
ling original propositions. Here are
moro of Lincoln's axoms:
owe are making history.
"This Union can not exist half
slave and half free.
'I do not understand Mr.. Valland-
igham to be punished SO much for
what he had done as for what he pro-
baby would have done.'
The following is an extract from
the speech he delivered on the battle
of Gettysburg from the White
House.
"The rebels turned tail and rum"

the conclusion that either the Presi-

does not believe the war to be the ho-
ly thing he processes, or that he is too

mands of other parents. u

eign nations that Congress was still
open with vacant seats, inviting the
rebels to come back to them and hold
conference with the representatives of
other States of the Union. Had Mr..
Seward forgotten this act of exclusion,
or did he intend to deceive foreigners
as well as his own countrymen?
Thus the door is effectually closed
BY this act against the people Of eight
or nine States, however desirous they,
or any portion of them, may be to ex-
ercise their rights under the Constitu-
tion and to yield unqualified and un-
conditional obedience to that instru-
ment. 1t must remain so closed un-
til this test cath act is pronounced in
7alid by competent judicial authority,
or modified or repealed by Congress.
The requirements of that act are but
the carrying out of the radical policy
that the Southern States shall never
again be members of the Union, or
never again be represented in Con-
gress.. 1t is, if not in form, in sub
stance and effect, an act for the disso-
luton of the Union. For this end it
was gotten up, and for this end it was
driven through Congress by the radi-
cal leaders who induced the President
to approve it. .....
Soldiers and citizens of Ohio, Re-
that the Abolition leaders,
who have basely betrayed you and
your cause, by pretending to be for
the Union while they were and are
against it, have shut the door against
the Union men and repentant rebels
of the South, and mean to keep it
shut. Is any Ohio man-need we
ask? is any Ohio soldierso lost to hon
or and patriotism as to vote for John
Brough, or any man who, like him, is
an alder and abettor in this plotagainst
that old Union, for which we have
been fighting and suffering during the
asst two and half years?-[States-

SG@ When Abraham Lincoln was
in Congress in 1S4S he voted against
giving the soldiers who has served in
the Mexican war one hundred and
sixty acres of land.
But Clement L. Vallandigham on
the 28th day Of February, 1852, voted
in Congress to give each soldier en-
gagged in putting down the rebellion
one hundred and sixty acres of land
in addition to his one hundred dollars

The so,called Union party don't
like to be called Abolitionists. We
cannot see the difference between them
they are both for the abolition of
slavery; both go hand in hand for
every abolition measure; are cheek by
,jowl with the Phillips, Summers,
Greeley's and Wade's in all their rad
ical doctrines, andyet they don't want
to be called Abolitionists. We do
not know of a more appropriate name.
If you do the devils work you must

Some four weeks ago we received notice that
the Democrat Office would be destroyed On
Saturday night friend dropped us line
that an attempt to destroy it would be made
between then and Monday morning. A mum
ber OF friends volunteered to stand guard and
did so, Saturday and Sunday nights which
with some wise council from portion of the
Republicans, had the effect to prevent any
hostile demonstration. To them and the
Marshal we returned our thanks for stepping
forward to assist Us in the defence of the
liberty Of the press.
With no citizen have we any personal
difficulty. With no soldier have we ever
had hard word. The cause then, of this
threatnng attempt to strike down the liberty
Of the press in Tuscarawas, Is as we'll known
to every reader Of the Democrat as to ourseli.
We were adverse to the nomination of MIR.
Vallandgham, made his nomination a point
Of honor with the Democratic party, A fter
his nomination by the greatest Convention
ever held in Ohio, the Democrat, alone with
one hundred and fifteen othet Democratic
papers in the State, raised his hame, and
have, from that time defended him and the
Democratic party from the charge Of "traitor'
made by Republican papers. In dong SO
the Democrat has done just as oil the Demo
cratic papers oil the State have done. We
have however, in resenting SO insulting d
charge, made it q rule not to mlsrepresent
any man or any set of men and il OF any
time any erroteobs Statement was made on
the information Of others, we always set the
matter right as soon d discovered. All we
want is the truth to 60 but to the people.
Yet in the face Of our known position we
have been threatened to death with the de
struction OF our property for maintaining
hat we believe to be the cause Of Right, the
Union the Constitution and the laws. II
the people encourage, by their votes this
spirit 0 lawlessness and disregard Of private
rights and public liberty, then there is little
| little worth living tor in the future. - Nsso
