The Negro Vote in xenia.

Soon after the election last fall there was a
great deal of talk among the Aboltionists
about contesting the election of Mr. Cox 10
this Congressional District, on account Of al.
legged illegal votes. But those threats have
evaporaied in talk and nothing else. An in-
ves,is CATION, IL contest bad been made, would
have shown that hundreds Of Illegal votes had
been cas-. fur SHRLLABlRoEH, and that among
these were numerous votes Of negroes and
persons Of negro descent, allowed by Abolition
judges on the principle of negro equality. The
annexed affidavit shows that sixty seven Of
these negro votes we're cast 10 the city of Xeuis
alone at tue late election. This proves that
every vote cast for SHELLABARaRR at that cleo
tion was q vote in favor Of negro suffrage -
The same is true of ell the votes cast for the

Governor Robinson,s accommodation

Governor ROBINSON, In his recent Message to
the Kentucky Legislature, makes the following
recommendation 10 respect to the Federal re-
lations Of that Commonwealth:
First. That the Presidents proposal Of com
pensa,ed emancipation be formally rejected by
Kentucky, with protest against the right o.
The General Government to interfere In any
form with the purely domestic policy of th'
States.
Second. That the Legislature place upon th'
records of the State protest against the Pfesi
dents proclamation Of emancipation, with a re-
affirmation of the great principles Of American
liberty, State and National.
Referring to the doctrine Of the emsnoipa'
tiou proclamation, Gov RoBINsoN says:
This monstrous doctrine has already received
an indignant rebuke from thepeople themselves
The great States of New York, Ohio, Indiana
New Jersey and Illinois In their recent cleo
tions have put their veto upon 10; and the later
returns indicate that Connecticut and other
parts Of New England will soon add their EN-.
phatic condemnation. Indeed II 10 apparent that
the people are aroused to sense OF the danger
that threatens their constitutional liberties and
will In good time come to the rescue. Until
that day, which Is unquestionably near at hand
arrives, IL becomes Kentucky to maintain the
position she has hitherto occupied. Let her moi
abate one jot or title Of her opposition TO go
cession or TO abolition, but let her poise herself
upon tho great truth that man 10 capable o.
self government, and that God design, this coun
try for great, free, and happy people, AM
shape her policy to that grsnd end
These are noble sentiments, worthy of Ken
tuekS's Governor and of all Kehtuckians
They are the sentiment, Of every truly loya
man 10 every State who loves and is resolved
to stand BY the Constitution and the Union
Let the people OF Ohio, as we'll as of KeDtuck..
and of every State, poise themselves upon th
great truth that "man is capable Of self gov
ernmeut," and not admit for moment tba
this grest principle is unsettled. or that tria
is yet to be made whether il is true OF not
Let us cling to it as the sheet anchor of our po
litical hope, and trust that this Is to remain, a
we believe God designed 1t to be, great, fret
and happy country. and that the combinet
hordes OF Secession and Abolition csunot over
throw our Constitution and Union.
