Not only is Vallandigham rebel SYM
pathizer, but he is a contemplate aristo-
crat and opposed to universal suf-
frage." This is proven by Hon. Volney
Dorsey of Ohio, in speech delivered at
Delaware. We copy that portion of it
sustaining this charge:
The speaker (Mr Dorsey referred to
the distinction between the men of prop
erty in the South and the laboring peo-
pie, depicting the well-known distinction
between them, and also referring to the
property qualification, in some of the
States, for the right to vote Since the
days of the Confederacy they have boldly

not strange that Vallandigham and his
followers should talk OF leaving New
England out in the cold, since, by means
of her schoolteachers, she has been dis
seminating that intelligence which equal
ICES the people. | can hardly believe
there is man listening to me, no mat
ter what his party views, who would dare
to lift his voice against universal suf-
frage in Ohio. l never expected to see
any Northern man advocate such sem
timent, or talk about the danger of uni
versal suffrage; but it was reserved for
that apostle of the South, c. l.. Vallan-
digham, to broach this question in the
North. Here is his record, and such a
record for Democrat and professed pa
triot to makel On page l9l, in speech
delivered in Congress on the 18th of
January, 1868, you will find the follow
ing language. He is pronouncing an
eulogium upon Slavery, which proves
what have before said, that he was a
Pro Slavery man: r.a
"In my deliberate judgment, a con-
federacy made up of slayeholding and
non-slaveholding States, is, in the nature
of things. the strongest of all popular
governments. African slavery has been,
and is, eminently conservative. 1t
makes the absolute political equality of
the white race everywhere practicable.
Now, would like to ask these old
men here, if they don't consider the
equality of the white race practicable in
Ohio? A voice-"We come pretty near
it."7 Yes; l think so. We are one
about as good as another, and entitled
to, and enjoy, equal rights in the State.
Isn't it strange that Democrat should
say that it takes slavery to establish the
absolute equality of the white race? But
Vallandigham knew that he lied when he
wrote that, for he knows something Of
the "poor white trash " of the South /;
be knows there is nothing Ike equality
among the whites in the slave States.
Why does he declare it, then2 He does
it because he wants to cram down your
throats Southern institutions and South
ern doctrines Five years ago he would
! not have dared to make a declaration o
; that kind either in or ont of Ohio; bu
} now, driven to desperation in defense o
his Southern friends, regardless of trutl
: and principle, bold villain as he is, HI
f makes the broad declaration that slave
ry "makes the absolute equality Of tn
D white race everywhere practicable.
Let us see what more slavery has done
n at has reconciled universal suffrage
throughout the free States with the sta
t bility of the Government" Whoeve
J. thought that universal suffrage was dar
d gerous to the stability of this Govern

:, it? He tells us that it is rendered sal
