SHELLABARGER'S SPEECH

In his late speech at Springfield,
Ohio, Hon. Sam. Shellabarger. power
fully portrayed the manner in which
President johnson has violated his
own professions. The following ex-
tracts are worthy of close attention.
Mr. Shellabarger said:
ARE ORGANIZED REBELLIONS REPUB-
LICAN GOVERNMENTS?
/ have said that the issue we are
about to try is, whether this Govern
ment has, under the Constitution,
any control over the organization
of loyal and republican governments
in the late rebel States, and any right
to demand from them any evidences
of loyalty and guarantees against an
other rebellion, before they shall re-
sumo controlling power In the govern
ment Of the Republic.
For Congress to assert the right to
demand such evidences and guaran-
tees is denounced by the President
and his new admirers as rebellion
at the other end of the line"
WhAA AhE ONAONf PANTY HOGDS III.
Will you permit me to make as con-
densed a statement as I can of what is
the true position of the Union party,
and the true theory of the Constitu-
ton upon this vital question.
That party maintains that, whilst
the Constitution did not contemplate
permit or provide for the possibility
of any State or any of its people going
out from the Union, it did foresee anG
provide for the calamity of State
ceasing to have Republican Govern,
ment; and against that calamity i
provided by requiring that the
fUnited States shall guarantee to eacl
State a republican form of Govern
ment." 1t is maintained by tina
party that the rebellion did in fac
deprive" the rebel States of al
civil Government" so that they haC
none under or loyal to our Constitu
ton, and that thereby the very contin
gency arose which was foreseen anc
provided for by the Constitution
when it became the right and duty o
the United States" to guarantee t.
these States" (not Territories) Re
publican Government.
These precise propositions were ex
plicltly. declared by Congress, upor
the 18th day of February, A. d., 1866
by the decisive vote of 119 to 20.
The irresistible truth of these prop
ositions secure their acceptance by al

PETERSBURG, Aug. "a, 1866.
Editors Journal:
GENTS: l resume my pen, to give
you few tidings from Pike.
Te The Union men of this county are
thoroughly organized in every town
ship, and are working in good earnest,
and in addition to this, we have had
+ the aid of one Steve Dial, from
Boonville, mighty man of valor, who
claims to belong to the National
= Union party" but who in fact is JEFF.
Davis's dog, and barks and growls at
every body who don't like Mr.. j. d.
Steve, in recent speech in this
County, thanked God for such man
as Booth, if he made Andy johnson
President" and said 1--WE will join
with the South when they elect their
Congressman, and have Andy to ac-
knowledge the Northern Democrats
and the Southern members as the true
Congress, and force the North to rebel,
and then aoe aoiU aohip them. u
Steve certainly is the lowest down,
most dirty and contemplate liar of the
whole Copperhead persuasion; but he
has very little sense, not so much as
one talent, and we can't find any
Seriptural application for him.
1t is now known that JEFF. W. Rich
ardson, the Copperhead candidate for
the State Legislature, was member
of the Sons of Liberty in 1864, and
that it was decided in the Order to kill
all notifying officers of the draft.
JEFF, himself, having been a little
ledky and told the matter, he is
completely cornered, and will be beat
en- by five hundred votes. Democrats
all over the county are swearing that
they will not vote for him. Mr.. Will
son, the Union candidate for the same
Office, is charging itupon him all over
the County, and jeff stays at home,
81 Niblack-like, and awaits the issue.
And by-the-way, I fear 1 reported
our majority too small, in my last,
(400,) but we shall see what we shall
