Seymour to craftsmanship has, . when
you come to look at it.
He opposed the WilmOt ProvisO.
| He supported the Fugitive Slave
Law.
He sustained the Nebraska bill re-
] pealing the restriction on slavery ex-
tension.
/ He apologized for or defended the
| border rufhan OHtTages in Kansas.
! He sustained BreckinTidge against
Douglas in 1850.
He threw the blame of the beginning
of secession upon the Republicans
while Mr.. Lincoln was only President
elect
He asserted that to call out troops to
suppress the rebellion was more rev
OIutiOnaryn than the rebellion itself.
He declared the Montgomery con-
stitutiOn better than ours, and eX-
pressed the opinion that the war
ought to be avoided by the North
adopting it, thus giving the highest
possible sanction to treason.
He never in the last eight years once
delivered any argument, appeal,
denunciatiOn or censure against the
rebel cause; and never failed to charge
revolution, usurpatiOn, outraged OPP
preston, tyranny and all the political
crimes in the calander upon the Re-
publcans.
July 4, 1868, while Lees army was
in Pennsylvania, on its way to Phi
adelphia and New York, and he had
heard only Of its success, he delivered
an Grafton in New York, implOring
the North to compromise, warning it
against ciUI GD0T at home, and de-
nOuncing the Republicans for (" in
fringing upon our rights, insulting
our homes, and depriving us of those
cherished principles for which our
fathers fought, and to which we have
sworn allegiance.
In Grafton aforesaid he warned the
thus :-'' Remember this;

When Lee had been defeated, and
the mob arose, which
his language had invited, he address

He told Mr. Lincoln that the draft
act was unconstitutional, and warned
him that ifit was enforced his friends
might resist it.
He presided at the Chicago COnYen-
tiOn, and, with it, declared the war
failure, and called for an immediate
peace-that is for disuniOn.
He opposed, and now opposes the
Fourteenth amendment, and all mea-
sUres marking treason as a crime.
Finally during the last eight years,
he has been admired and hOnored by
every rebel in the country, and dis
trusted and hated by ninety-nine out

The Hon. Louis AllgeWhar, Re-
publican candidate for Presidential
Elector, arrived in thiscity yesterday
to fill his speaking appointment, and
agreeable to announcement, spoke in
the Turner'S Hall hast evening to a
large and deeply interested audience
Of our German fellow citizens. and
American Republicans.
About FO'Cloek brilliant fireworks
were displayed from the Hall, and the
citizens, attracted by the signal, began
to gather at the place. BY o'clock
the hall was filled, and still they kept
coming. But a few minutes after this
hour Mr.. Fred Metz called the meet
ing to order and ON motion, H.. R.-A
PUnd Esq. was elected President,
and Fred Krug Secratary.
The President, on taking the chair,
announced that the object Of the meet
ing was to listen to the Hon. Louis
AIlgeWahr discuss the political
topics Of the day, and Introduced
that gentleman to the audience. As
Mr.. a. assembled the platform he was
greeted with hearty applause. Wait
ing until the applause had subsidized,
Mr.. A. lost no further time in address
ing himself to, his hearers, and went
immediately to the pith of his subject.
he traced the history of the country
upon the subject which has caused
the present division Of parties, and
demonstrated clearly that slavery had
ruled the Democratic paFtyand through
il the country, until at last the Re
publican party became a necessity for
the preservation OF liberty and human
rights, which were sonearlv subneFg-
ed into total al.nihilation, and as their
bold, fearless champion had rescued
them from the destruction that had so
nearly Overtaken them, and made
them triumphant in the nation. All
the cohorts and allies Of tyranny and
slavery, under a temporary and de-
lusive encouragement had again as
sailed them with the most determined
vigOr, and the Republican party was
again ehampiOniHg and defending
them, and upon its success depended
their permanent establishment, to
bless all future generations of Ameri-
can citizens, and at last spread them
selves throughout the world, the un-
heritage Ofal men while in
its defeatwas involved also their defeat
and the stoppage of the car of human
progress for ages, perhaps.
In such acOntest the iberty-lOying
German could have no difficulty in
choosing with which side to cast his
vote and his influence. And he ex-
lOrted all his cOuntTymen to be true
10 their liberal instincts aud theirsen-
iments of freedom; and as in the
Fatherland they had fought and en-
4
t, and in this country had also fought
md suffered for it in the ranks of the
Union army, to still battle for it in
ne ranks of the Republican party,
