The AcnntOrHhip.

Shall we have Senator elected from this
state to represent the honorable and patriotic
views of Gov. Seymour unpublished III our pa
per to-day, or shall we send down TO w ashing
ton for another six years, a man to plead
for more blood, more debt, mora taxation,
imore anarchy, a revolution in the government,
and the humiliation of Amerlc an liberty
OF the one hundred members OF the Assem-
bly, ,torty-fvs are uncompromisingly committed
to the Constitution and Union. At least live
more were elected with the aid Of conservative
votes. Can it be possible that majority OF
the Legislature can be induced under such cir
lcnmssances to boldly defy the sentiment Of the
State, the prayer of the people, the Interests OF
our country, and their sworn duty 20 obey Inc
laws, BY voting to perpetuRte our national ca

| We take the above vile and reasonable u t"
terAnces from the Milwaukee Ntws, a paper
edited by George IL. Paul, lately of this city,
where for eight long years he enjoyed the prof
its and emolunents OF Government office
After he has grown rich out of tie Government
aad because he was then required to give up
his lucrative post to another and more loyal son
of the Republic, he il ready to turn and join
hands with the deadly enemies Of the Govern
ment which for those eight years fed and en-.
riched him, to Fepd and destroy it. II is hard
| ~ possible TO Conceive how man brought up
and impressed as he must be by constant Goa,
tact with loyalty and honesty and amid all those
influences that tend TO form the true and loyal
citizen, should turn cut so thorough and unblush
ing traitor, except upon the ground that in
the moral and political nsture.As in the physic
al, there are lo&thsome lepers, against whom ev-
1ery mans hand should be turned. The man
who could pen the above paragraph, is moral
leper who should be Stunned and avoided by
ali loyal men, as the physical leper of old was
avoided and Stunned, until he was made to feel
and exclaim in bitterness of heart "'Unclean !!
unclean ~
If treason consists in aiding and abetting the
enemies of the country, in time Of war, why is
the above not rank treason? Is it not abetting
and aiding also, those in arms against the gov
eminent and doing their best to destroy it, to
assure them that they are in the right, and that
thos who oppose them are ohly fighting formore
blood more anarchy,a revolution in the govern
ment and the humiliation of American lberty?'
This is what the Milwaukee Ne,cs tells the reb-
els and traitors now in arms against the Gov
eminent The loyal people of Wisconsin, who
have sent 35 900 of their fathers and sons and
brothers to fight for the Union and the consti~
tuition, thar il they send a Republican Senator
to Congress In place of jas. r. Dooittle, who
will support the Administration and defend the
honor and integrity Of the nation, they will send
a man to plead for more blood more debt more
taxation, more anarchy, aTrevolution in the
govern ment and the humiliation of American
Liberty u
The rebels and traitors who commenced this
war-Jeff Davis and all his traitor crew-are
martyrs and patriots, fighting against the ma
chinations of Abraham Lincoln and the people
of the North to destroy the Government and an
initiate American Liberty, according to the
teaching of the Milwaukee Ne,os' and other mis-
named Democratic sheets.
Fathers Of Wisconsin, who have blessed and
sent forth your sons, at the call of your coun-
try, do you believe you have only sent them to
fight for anarchy and the annihilltion of Amer
lean liberty? Yet you are thu daily Knocked
and held up before the world by the editor OF
the Milwaukee Nsos OF course he does not
} himself believe the monstrous lie, but he does
his best to make others believe it, and he un-
doubtedIy succeeds with a great many igno>
rant and uninformed persons, whose partisan
bias leads them to read his paper and believe
its teachings. or course this is only a way
that Democrats have of electioneerlng for the
success Of their party, but che history of the
past shows how dangerous such election eering
is. For years past the Democratic press, IN ey-
cry ESrlte or national election canvass, has
teemed with just such monstrous lies.
Without the aid of the northern Democratic
press, she southern people never conld have
been urged into the war, by the leaders of the
great conspiracy. They have constantly declsr-
ed that the Republicans were blood-thirsty aboil-
itionists, who only wanted the power to com>
mence war &gainss she rights of the south
And the real traitors of the south, who, accor
ding to their own showing have been plotting
for the dissolution of the Union, for the last
thirty years, had only to point their ignorant
and prejudiced constituents TO these northern
democratic papers, (and they weIa allowed to
see no other) to prove to them thai their only
safety, in the event of the election Of Repaid
Iicau President, laid in dissolution of the Uuion
and the formation Off southern confedetScy.
And they actually made them be lieve they were
fighting for their homes and their fresides and
their liberties, when they commenced this un.
holy civil war; when in fact there never was,
for it-when in fact there never was, and there
is not now, the shadow of an advantage of any
knd-potical financial or social-to be gain
ed by the war, even though they should be sues
cessful III every battle, and victorious on every
field. The people of the south have been cru,
ely aud outrageously deceived and betrayed by
their ambitious and designing leaders, that
same class of political leaders Of the Democra>
cy at the North have done their best todeceive
and betray the masses of the Free States, for
purely selfish and ambitious motives But they
have met more intelligence, intellectual culture
than :heir co-workers met at the South, and
just in that proportion they have failed of sue
cess in their Internal schemes.
| Does any one believe that the Editor Of the
Milwaukee Nc1s is honest, wheu he represents
that republican senator would be sent to
! Washington, to plead for more blood, more
debt, more taxation, more anarchy, q revolu>
ton in the government, and the anHihila,ion Of
American hberty'' No man with common
sense and any information, believes it ; and yet
he will reiterate the same charge day after day,
when he knows it is az false as the father of lies
himself, and be has purpose in it. There is
class of our citizens who are not well inform
ed whose prejudices are sscong in favor of the
name of Democracy. They read the Milwau-
kee Neps and no other English paper, and they
are expected to believe it. That the Neaos can
