How Van nike x

-
Say, my old Democratic friend,
who was born and bred in Demo
cracy and have lived and acted by
its teachings honestly and consci-
entiously, how do you relish the
choice bits Of personalities Greeley
has thrust at you during his life.
How do you compromise the differ
ence of then and now. Are you
the base wretch he pronounced you
or did your truthful Horace tell a
black lie? Either one or the other
is true. How is your confidence in
his Judgment strengthened by the
opinions he has rendered? Here
for instance is one worthy of care
full. Read it.
We like Gen. Grant; but We care
far more for Republican ascendancy
than for any mans personal for
turnes. 1t is in our view of great
Importance that the opposition shall
be kept out of power, while it is OF
comparatively small moment that
A or B should tenant the White
House. For q Democratic national
tyIampb means a restoration to pot1eT
of those avho deserted their seats an
Congress and their places uader the
last Democratic President to plunge
the Country into the Red Sea Of Sc
ceSSioa and Rebellion. Though yoat
paint an inch thick, to this cone
p5euion you mast come at last. The
brain, the heart, the soul Of the pres
ent Democratic party IS the rebel e.
ement Of the South, aOttb its North
ern allies and SynpathizerS. 1t IS
rebel at the core to-day, hardly able
to realize the defeats of Lee, John
son, Bragg, Hood and Price, and
the consequent downfall of its be
loved confederacy, with its tradition
al faith in Divine Providence. Ii
would hail the election of a Demo
cratic President in 1872 as virtual
reversal of the AppomattOx sur
render. It Eould come into pol0eI
qvith the hate, the chGgrin, the a0rGth
the modification of ten bitter gears
to impeI and guide its steps. 1t would
devote itself to taking off or reduc-
ing tax after tax until the Treasury
YVES deprived Of the means of pay
ing interest on the national debt
and acould hail the tidingS Of 11GtiOna
bankruptcy t0ith anal1oyed gIGdneS'
and UnconeedIed eDultatiOn.. What
ever chastisement may be deserved
by our national sins, we must hope
that this disgrace and humiliation
will be spared us.
The above sound language is
from Horace Greeley, published as
editorial in the New York Tribune
in February, 1S71-a few months
before the word presidency was
whispered in his own ear. 1t is JUS
as good reading now, as then.

Wasn't Willing.

The Courier last week prophecied
great victories for the Democracy on
Tuesday, ''if men did their duty and
God was willing" Men did their
duty and that manfully, and truth
and right sent terror and confusion
into the enemy's camps. Without
mixing up devine interposition with
political achievements, it is rational
to believe that the results are pleas
ing in the sight Of heaven, and in
November still greater achievements
will crown the efforts of a patriotic
people in the cause of justice and
sight.

THE BLOODY cHAsM.

How the Greeleyites PracticeRecon-
ciliation in Cincinnati-A still
Bloodier Chasm opened between
the Black Men and the Liberals Of
the North.
We Gull from the Cincinnati Ga
zette further particulars of the riot
in that city Monday evening. For
weeks past there has been bad
blood brewing between the colored
people who have turned out in Grant
professions, and
Last night the outbreak came, un-
expectedly to the mass of our citi-
zens, bat not so to our colored popu-
lation. During the day, yesterday,
rumors were thick among them that
they would be mobbed last night.
This intelligence, they say, came by
messengers and through parties
who overheard threats to that effect.
Even the police, for the first
time, became apprehensiyeof of trouble
in consequence of the number and
nature Of these flying reports, a
little fear was felt that trouble was
brewing, but the officers thought
they would be able to quell it with
out difficulty. Extra watchfulness
was the order of the evening in the
eastern part of the city where the
colored population is most dense.
The cOlored women of Allen
Temple, on the southeast corner of
Sixth and Broadway, had a meeting
at that church, that evening, in the
capacity ofa society. They had en-
ployed the colored band to play for
them. Speeches were called for,
and a stand was improvised for them
out of a coupled Of barrels and 8
board.
The Greeley Club of the Eighth
Ward, composed of men who prin-
cipally live in the old Fourth Ward
of the city, paraded the streets with
uniforms and torches. They passed
near where the colored people were
holding their meeting, and as col
ored persons, mostly children ON the
north east corner of Fifth and Broad
way hurraed for Grant, men in the
procession beat them with their
torches, and drove everybody away
except gigantic colored man, who
stood there quietly, saying nothing,
doing nothing, except 10 look quiet
ly at the performance. The crowd
gone, they turned their attention to
him, striking him with their torches.
He drew q pistol and commenced
firing. This broughtre-inforcements
from the corner of Sixth and Broad
way, and the firing grew brisk on
both sides. The main portion oil
the Eighth Ward Club scattered east
and west Fifth street and south on
Broadway. A few of their number
stood fighting where the row
began, and shouted for their flying

Corruption.

When our Government has been
stepped in corruption until it has
rotted from dome to corner stone,
then let our enemies make the
charge without blushing, but not
till then. Don't talk of thieves Sc
long as people can remember that
under a Democratic Administration
ninety-six out Of ninety-eight ofici-
ais were proven thieves. Don't
charge that the Government is.De-
ing impoverished by defaulting
officials when one of the principal
defaulters, and who is in the peni-
tentiary through the vigilance of the
Administration, found a bondsman
in the person of Horace Greeley, and
the $4,000 remains to this day un-
paid. Don't charge Grant with be-
ing tainted with corruption, when it
is true that Greeley set on Tammany
eggs until he hatched out a hundred
thousand dollars and more. Be care
full about yelling stop thief so loud,
when the old detective rule can be
applied with such certainty.

IF man die political death, shall
he live again? is question which is
deeply troubling the mind of Gree
ley and his already defeated, ambi-
tious followers. With him, and with
some other candidates already de-
feated, the answer is clear. Their
political death is an eternal death,
and in this thought the country finds
relief.

PLANTATION BITTBRN.

This wonderful vegetable
restorative is the sheet-an-
chOr of the feeble and de-
bilitated. As a tonic and
cordial for the aged and Ian
guild it has no equal among
stOmachics. AS a remedy for
the nervous weakness to
which women are especially
it is superceding ev-
cry other stimulant. In all
climates, tropical, temperate
or frigid, it acts as a specific
in every species of disorder
which undermines the bodily
strength and breaks dOwnthe

THE present editor Of the StLouis
Democrat held the same position on
on the Cincinnati Enquirer in 1869,
and naturally knew the Democratic
ropes pretty well. Of Mr.. Nassau
rex, who has lately come out for
Greeley, because the Grant commit
tee did not feel inclined to buy him,
the Democrat says: "He bargained
with the friends of Geo. H.Pendleton
in 1869, and entered a so-called re
form movement which gave Cincin-
natl to the Democrats, and at every
election since he has been in the
market with his price affixed. The
recent disclosures virtually dispose
of him and rob him Of the little in
fuence he has heretofore had in
American politics"

The Result in the County!
Democratic Majority Reduced! !!
SLOANE NOWHERE.
REPUBLICANS FEELING GOOD

Tuesday last was a glorious day
for the country. 1t opened with
splendid weather, which continued
all through the day, and the roads
being in good order, both parties
did their best to get out the voters,
and the result was the largest vote
perhaps ever poled in the county.
The First Ward did nobly for our
gallant leader, giving him 12Omajor-
ity, and ia on the State ticket.
In the Second Ward Sloane's ma
iority was reduced to SO, where about
$50 was expected. Democratic ma
iority on State ticket 129.
In the Third Ward Sloane's ma
iority was rs, he running behind
the majority on State ticket As votes.
Ballville came up handsomely and
gave Foster a majority of 6, where
there was IA Democratic majority
two years ago. In this township
Judge Greene had a majority of 81.
Green Creek showed that good
work had been done there and the
majority for Foster ran to 14S-a
gain of so.
jackson did well, but should have
done better. A little more life and
energy would have given Foster %
majority instead of Is. Judge
Greene's friends run his majority up
to.46.
In Madison. our friends met the
enemy and fought gallantly, but were
outnumbered 80. Keep up your
spirits, boys, and go for them again
in November. The vote was very
large.
In the Democratic strongholds of
Rice and Riley, we have reasons to
be proud of our friends. They did
well and cut down the majorities
somewhat, but will do better in No
vember.
In Sandusky township the result
was the same exactly as two years
ago, except that Sloane gained one
on Dickenson's vote.
In Scott, we made a refreshing
gain, that showed our friends to be
lively and energetic. Dickenson's
msjority of 81 was cut down to 81,

LIBERALISM in Massachusetts, has
had setback, and the reformers are
sadly wandering about with no one
to love. Charles Sumner doesn't
relish defeat, even in a dear cause
and has refused the doubtful honor
of candidacy for Governorship on
their ticket. The next man on the
ticket, George M. Stearns, also de-
clines, leaving the poor unfortun-
ates at q standstill. The tidal wave
has swept down upon them from the
west ere this, and probably knocked
them out of existence.
The Fremont weekly journal. [volume] (Fremont, Sandusky County, Ohio) 1867-1877, 1872-10-11

and the State ticket majority Of 81
reduced to SO. Bravo for Scott,
keep up the fight, and you will yet
control the township. The reason
for this gain was Taylor and Garver's
debauch on Monday night last.
In Townsend the result was dis
astrous, and Sloane's majority reach
ed 80, while the Democratic State
ticket had a majority of 19.
Washington covered itself with
glory, and made gain Of SO votes,
giving Sloane only 161, where Dick
inson had 2O3. Well done, Wash
ington. Try them again, and move
on their works in November.
Woodville, too, deserves great
credit for her campaign, Sloane's
majority being but 126 against 155
for Dickinson.
York should have done better, but
we are proud of her 122 majority for
Foster. She will explode a bigger
gun for Grant in November.
All together we are satisfied with
the result. Our friends have fought a
gallant fight and shown what they
can do when they turn out. A few
such fights, and an equally ardent
spirit on their part would redeem
the County and range it on the Re-
publican side. Dickensons majority
of 75O is reduced to 431 for Sloane
and as compored with the vote of
four years ago on the State ticket,
when an equally full vote was out,
we have a similar gain to that
above.
Burnish up your armor anew and
prepare for the contest in November.
You can do better. The Grant Tan
ners have skinned Sloane, and are
now preparing the vats for Greeley
in November.

friends to return. This they did,
and pressed the colOred men back to
New street. When the shots were
fired most of the colored people who
had arms rushed down Broadway to
the scene, and stood by their friends.
The remainder of the colored men
rushed to their armory,- on New
street east of Broadway, where
about thirty of them obtained load
ed muskets and returned to Broad
way to aid their friends. They fired
till their ammunition was gone, and
rushed back to their armOry, where
they remained. This is one state.
ment, but the colored men say that
four shots were fred first by the pro-
cession at the crowd Of colored peo-
pie on the corner, and in this they
are sustained by Numbers of white
people who live in the vicinity of
Sixth and Broadway.
AS soon as two or three shots had
been fred, the bulk of the procession,
which had progressed well toward
Fourth street, was seized with an un-
comfortable panic. Pell nell, heller
skelter, down the street they went,
barking and bowling like colony Of
prairie dogs. One valiant soldier,
drummer, tore along the sidewalk,
vigorously beating the long roll as
be ran. A Gazette reporter, who
happened to be passing up Broadway,
and met the terror-stricken thrOng,
marked their blanched faces and
headlong fight, and stopped one of
the fugitiYes with the inquiry,
"what's the matter here? That fir
ing is all in fun, isn't it?" Fun, hell
fren' was the reply, There's more'n
five thousand black devils up there
shooting at u.s." Another s.outly
asservated that "the id niggers"
had a battery up there, and that if
the reporter would go up there he
would see a hundred dead men on
the street.
When the thrOng had reached
Fourth street the firing had ceased,
and their hearts gradually settled
back to their wonted places. By de
grees their courage rose, and sundry
propositions of revenge were propos-
ed. One gentleman thought it would
be good idea to go down and "clean
Pickett's out" The suggestion that
they should kill "every id Niger
in the city" met with much approval.
Finally, however, those who had
reached a place of safety, concluded
to postpone their vengeance until a
more convenient season, and depart
ed, swearing they would skill every
nigger that tried to vote tomorrow.

Mr.. GREELEY assented.

Mr.. Edwards then summoned Mr..

member of the House, both of whom
testified to having conversed with
Mr.. Greeley or the subject of the
books the day that the vote was
taken, and that he had said that he
was in favor of the measure, and
gave his reasons for being so, all Of

Congress at that time will remember
how clearly Mr.. Greeley was prover
to have been deliberate and wilfu

and justified his vote in private con
versation both before and after hav
ing cast it, and then, when public
opinion turned against the measure
denied in the Tribune and in Con
gress that he knew what he was vot
ing about, or had ever intended tC
