RANK REPUDIATIoN.


Uudsr Tho above caption cot mporarr Of
che Napoleon Nsrthuess publishes tho following
ID. In bis lest issue
"The Perrysburg Joarndi, the home organ Of
.a Dt. Peck repudiales the swindlo called by the
pet name oi Proectinn. THIS IS repudmung
cvort rebellion against the Biude and CONNER
~ eiNi This Is the Democratic doctrine, end Is
taught BY the NorhEesf."
In reply 10 the above desire toiHform our
cotemporary that the JOURNAL is the organ of
Dr. PsvK in the same. sense 10 which the NOrdh'
,se.t was the organ Of HiLi,, or Of CARTER. As
the representative Of Republican principles,
which proclaim the largest measure Of good
n the greatest number Of persons support
DIR. PEcK. We do not consider the present pro-
hbitory tariff as constituting any part Of the
Republican Constitution. 1t is an excreseenee
which has develop ed itself on the Republican
,.. b.dypablic, Just in the that the excrcs
csnce Of slavery fastened itself on the Demo
alto party aud accelerated it's ruin. Each
evil IL the embodiment OF INSCRIPTIONS selfish
moss, which thrives and fatens on the labor OF
others The sl,veholder claimed the constitu-
.. tional right to live in idleness, grow fat, and
accumulate richss on the unrequited and un
willing labor Of the black man. In their line
sach action direct and positive. Their
a cnbrts TO perpetuate that nccursod system, to.
gether with the evaporation of the Democratir
has been obliterated. Disgrace and ruin now
6r rests on It's advoeahs. just so may it ever be
with such ~ wautonly violate the rights Of hu-
mllity. ~1-a ..
The grasping mohopolists Of the land aEC
governed and influenced By the same instincts
Of sel8sbncss. 1t is only in the process by
which they seek to attain their ends that any
difference is manifest. The stakeholder lived
@ on tue uurequited labor Of the black population
alone. By the indirect process of taxation on
the foreign CONNIE rec Of this nation, the favored
4 ononopoists, by law, compel every man, woman
n child who occupy the position Of consumers
In 8 pntribute in Involuntary and 10 an unre
.s IF d manner, to their support. Thus the
-Ssass ofsthe national revenue defeated, for
jpurpose Of enrichiug favored class, who
a it more pro6t,ble to live on the labor Of
Jthersrat er than by that of their own.
Against this unjust system protest, and
shall continue to do n such efforts are
.., lapoyf TO fud ourselves in association with the
iesdng Republican papers of the nation. 1t is
70 no purpose that attempt to disguise the
~ fact that the political supremacy of the Re-
publican party wholly depends the modAca
tion Of the tariff to revenue purposes only. Tax.
..a. rion in support of the government is sufficient
ly burdensonIe, without the additional imposts
Of taxation in indirect manner of probably '
fVc ines that amount by way of contributions
to favored monopoies. Such a system is beth
unjust and oppressive therefore, 10 repudatine
/, we do not rep udiats the principles of the Re.
49, publican party. .u+
In regard to the Toledo papers, we have mol
sworn fealty to them, but shall take pleas
ure in cooperating with them in upholding il
their integrity the true principles Of Republic
anisn, which the NortiWsa must, in justice ad
nit, has proved the salvation of our nation.
