TIE CONFLICT BEGUN.
We are told 10 a tone Of rejoicing, by certain
distinguished gentlemen, that, in the South, the
conflict Of races has already begun, and that our
own race will be driven TO the wall-thst is, be
exterminatedi And that, ia the new order OF
things, negro aristocracy will be created, and
that negroes will occupy seats upon the Supreme
Bench, and 10 the balls of the National Legisla-
ture What is this propositionf
That six millions of our own race, men,
women and children. shall be tramped into the
earth. in order that an aristocracy of four mil
lion negroes shall be established upoa their
graves
And can it be that policy so monstrous in
itself, so atroeous in its concepton-a policy
equally inhu man, unconstitutional and uBchris
tisn, can receive the sanction OF the enlightened
| citizens of Ohio Can it be true that the people
of Ohio desire the determination of our country

shall be built upon the whits mans grace For

! CIVIL LIBERTY
Although commenced my military career at
fifteen years Of age, was taught from nv ear
lest youth to revere the of civil liberty
aud view the continued suspension of the writ
OF habeas corpus, and sthe trial Of citizens by
military commissions, in direct violation OF the
Constitution, AMI as dangerous infringement Of
the liberty OF the people.
THE PVBLIc DEBT AND TAXATION
The National deb; is estimated at four thou
sand million dollars. and General Cox proposes
the purchase of a district of country containing
thirty million acre, of land, in order to create
negro dependency | wholly opposed to
that or any her scheme calculated to increase
the burthens of the people, and an in favor of
an equitable system at taxation, aud of reducing
the expenses of the Federal and State Govern

OUB POLICY ~ SUCCESSFUL
And now, Mr. President, should il be the will
Of the psople to conf1e the affairs of the State
to the care Of the Democratic party what is 20
be our policy
Believing that governments are instituted not
for the benefit of party, but for the protection
and common good of the whole people, the Dem
ocrate party will be equitable and just in the sd-
minstraton of public affairs. MagnanimIty is
good policy IN peace as in war, and party inca
pable OF magnsnmty is unworthy of being
trusted with power. One wrong does not Justify
another, AID he il an unwise politician WHO
would demand public vengeance for private
injuries. Our only desire is the maintenance of
liberty may be secured for ourselves. and for our
fellow citizens of all parties. And should the
people OF Ohio call me to the performance of
the responsible duties of the chief magistrate. it
will be my earnest study to discharge the obi
cations incident to that position, with strict i'm
Partially; and to the full extent of my official
ability to secure the rights of civil liberty TO
every citizen of the State. Ours ia land of
law, and the magistrate is not less bound to re-
spect Its provisions than is the private citizen ;
and il he violates the fundamental law which he
is sworn to support, be should DE held to
stricter accountability than he who assumes no
such additional obligation.
We are entering upon one o. the most i'm

we're thus battling in the field there vas another
