Secession not Dead.

When Gov. Wise, at the ratifica.
ton meeting i'm Richmond, over the
nominations of the New York Con.
vention, said that slavery twas q
deed issue, but that the right of Sc
cession was not" he but echoed the
spirit of the rebel element i'm oil the
Southern States. Alexander III.
Stevens says, in his history of the
Rebellion, that the North were fight
ing to kill slavery while the South
were lighting for the old Calhoun
State rights.
Whether slavery was the great is
sue on which the late war was fought
or whether il was not, it matterssery
little to-day. The South have entered
upon this campaign as firmly deter
mined i'm their efforts to secede from
the Union rs they did In '6l, and
they accept the New York Nomina-
tons as a platform on which they
expect to fight it out. They know if
Seymour and Blair are elected their
point is gained. The Democratic
platform, all know, is palatable for
any rebel North or South, and the
name of their standard bearers will
inspire the heart of any rebel who
fought for the destruction Of this
government. Republicans have be-
fore them the same issue that they
were called upon to meet in 81. 1t
has only been transferred from the
bayonet to the ballot box, and it Is
upon these grounds that we must
fight our battles of the present cam
paign. .r.. .......+....
Cedar Falls gazette. [volume] (Cedar Falls, Iowa) 1860-1895, 1868-07-31

New York excites very little interest
throughout the State. Great surprise
is manifested at Seymour's nomiha-
ton, oil idea of which had been
abandoned when q reputation plat
form was promulgated. Blair's few
friends arc highly gratified, while
other and more prominent men of
the Democratic party threaten to
bolt the ticket, us they can't stand
Blair.
MADISON, Wis, July 10.
The Democracy here manifest no
enthusiasm over their national nom
nations. They would have liked
Pendleton much better than they do
Seymour.
INDIANAPOLIS, July 10.
The nominations of the Democratic
National Convention are received
here with great satisfaction by the
Republicans, but the Democrats do
not exhibit much enthusiasm.
WASHINGTON, July 10.
The Republicans i'm Congress and
prominent Republicans here, out OF
Congress express the opinion that the
Democratic Convention could not
have made o weaker ticket than that
of Seymour and Blair The latter
for Vice President is ridiculed by all,
irrespective of party. He is looked
upon here as mere rowdy politician.
The Democrats and johnson NEIL
feel sore and respondent.
Thus it goes through the whole
country, with the exception of the
Southern cities, where the browning
feat of the rebellion, i'm the nomina-
ton of its two greatest friends, is
hailed with joy and gladness.
These wild demonstrations of the
"unwasled" rebels are regarded as
bad omens. Their eagerness to COM
mand the late "pow-wow," their sue
cess in fostering upon their party a
man odious to every hyocsiticai,
Union hating Democrat of the North,
and their senseless howlings of joy,
have aroused the real friends of the
country to a proper consciousness Of
national peril and disgrace. Stand
firm to your colors, Republicans |!
The blind giants who undertook the
overthrow of the National Govern
ment, are sinking beneath the rub
bisll of their own destroyed peculiar
institutions" and will be buried
where they fell.
