We nafo nau uPVu VuT IdDle lOr be'-
eral months, Vallandigham's Record,
a book of 24s pages, published and
by his friends as an cleo
document, and sold at both
the Bookstores by his friends. The
Ohio Eagle of June 14.h, endorses it as
follows:
"VALLAEDIoHAM's RECORD. - Val
landigham's Record can be had at
either Of the bookstores in this city.
1t contains his principal speeches and
his votes in Congress. To be posted
every voter ought to have copy"
And the Hooking Sentinel of Aug.
9th, another Vallandigham sheet, as
follows;
"Vallandigham's Record is one of
the best documents for circulation
among the people"
With such endorsement our Demo
cratic friends will not doubt the gen.
uineness Of the book. We ask every
honest man who intends to support
Vallandigham, to examine the record
for himself, and see what Vallandig-
hams principles are, and what his acts
have been, and not to depend upon
what any political speaker or leader
says of him.
We ask the friends of the Union to
take this record and distribute it, CIV
ing the page on which the following
extracts may be found:
IVALLANDIGHAM A SOUTHERN
SYMPATHIzER.
In a speech delivered in the Con-
gress of the United States, entitled
There is West" Mr.. Vallandigham
made the following declaration which
will be found on page 43 of the record
81 am not Northern man. Ihave
little sympathy with the North, no
very good feeling for, and am bound
to her by no tie whatsoever, other than
what once were and ought always to
be the strongest of ties--a common Ian
guage and common country. x X
Then, sir, l am not Southern man
either,-although in this unholy and
most unconstitutional crusade against
the South, in the midst of the invasion,
arson, insurrection, and murder, to
which she has been subject, and with
which she is still threatened-with the
torch of the incendiary and the dagger
of the assassin suspended over her
my most cordial Sympathies are uholly
NTH her."
IVALLANDIGHAM A FIRE EATER.
T On the same page he declares:
II am as good Western fire. e.eater
as the hottest salamander in this house" "
VALLANDIGHAM A DISUNION-
IST AND A SECESSIONIST.
On the 7th Of February, 1861, Val
f landigham introduced in the House Of
Representatives a Joint Resolution,
proposing amendments to the Constitu-
ton, which amendments begin as fol-
lows:
"Article XIII. Sec. /. The United
States are divided into four sections as
follows"
One of these sections was to be
named the SOUTH, and was composed
of the present slave States and Of all
territory acquired east of the Ric
Grande and South of latitude go 30'
The I'd section of the proposed amend
ment provides that before any bill Or
: resolution can pass it must have ma
t iority of the votes of the Senators from
each section, thus giving to the dicta-
torial and aggressive politicians of the
Southern section the power to prevent
, legislation. The power being given
: them to prevent legislation even
against the combined vote of the three
5 remaining sections, they must have the
r power to compel the Northern sections
a to accept such measures as they may
: dictate, or submit to o division of the
I territory. This power is the power Of
secession, which is given them by Ar
ticlo XIV:
"No State shall secede without tht
= consent Of the Legislatures Of the State'
: of the section to Which the State propo.
sing to Seccde belongs. The PreSidenl
shall hare po,oer to adjust 10Th SecedinS
States all questions arising BY reason o.
!, secession; but the terms Of adjustment
4 shall be Submittedto the Congress for theil
!, approval before the same shall be valid.
, The resolution will be found on page

{: l, 1S6O-6i, and on page s8 of the Re
cord published by his friends,
