pool.
It is a gratifying circumstance to
us that the Republicans Of this
District have selected for their
candidate a person of such excel
lent political, financial and moral
character as the gentleman whose
name heads this article. So far az
we have been able to learn, MIR.
Claypool is person lily in every way
qualified for a fit representative OF
this District in the halls of Con
gress; and this gives us comfortable
assurance, that as far as the two
| candidates are concerned the
Congressional canvass will be
conducted honorably, and not dis
graced by any of those low person
alities that sometimes makes such
contests unpleasant and disgraceful
If Mr.. Claypool should be elected
their representative concerning him
personally his constituents of al
parties will no doubt have cause tc
congratulate themselves that the
choice has been made of SO worthy
! O man.

once in the proposition to make them
civilly and politically equal with my
self. And / do not think there is
any dangerof social equality follow
ing upon that admission. A
But the Democratic party have al
ways, ever since they have cx isted as
a party, been hunting a position o.
power, and it has always seemed to
them that unless great wall was
reared up between them and the black
race there was great danger of run
ming into state OF social equality.
They were afraid to, trust themselves;
they were afraid that the ardent tenn
permanent of the Democratic youth
would impei them to rush pell- nell
against the tradition and religion Of
the party into the arms of some Saint
Dinah and make her their wife.
Laughter We have not been
troubled with anything like that.
There is another reason, the admir-
able conduct of the colorel race, their
uniform fidelity to the Union cause.
And then there is another feature
that l cannot recall without my graft
tu1e being deeply stirred within me.
These people, who have been in bond
age two hundred years, visited by ali
the outraees of slavery while their
masters were away on distant bat
tie fields attempting to establish an
empire whose foundation should be
slavcry-attempting to make slavery
last for the futurc-they left these
people at home for sentinels guarding
their wives and children and provid-
ing for their subsistence on the old
plantations. Now did the negro re-
member his wropgs2
Did he embrace the opportunity to
visit these hated scenes with rapine
and p'under? mol If he tolt the Sc
wrongs, as he must, ranking in his
heart he put aside the supreme temp
tation, and listen to the voice Of re-
lig ion Vengeance is mine, | will
repay saith the Lord" [Applause.]

Good Suggestion.

We find the following, we think,
most excellent suggestion in the Mad
ison Courier; and We re-publish it
now, for the purpose, as all parties in
Old Wayne have their candidates in
the field, that they will promptly meet
and act as suggested:
LET the candidates nominated re-
Gently in this county, by the Demo
cratic and Republican parties, meet
together and sign joint pledge not to
use Intoxicating liquors in any m; n
ner as means of winning votes in the
coming canvass. No more democrat
izing practice exists in this country
than the custom of buying the votes
OF the riff-raff with whisky. The men
or the party who will stoop to such a
policy are not the men nor the party
wanted at this time to control the af-
fairs of the people,

The Discussion.

The fairest and best way to draw
conclusions of the honesty and ca
pacity of two men to represent you
in Congress, is to hear them both
TALK AT YOU, from the same Ros
trum, in fair and free discussion.
This opportunity is offered on
Wednesday, Sept. 18th, when Hon.
B. F.. Claypool and Hon. w. s.
Holman, will address the people
We trust every Republican and
every Democrat who possibly can
will make it convenient to hear
these candidates, and give THEN
utterances a careful hearing.

pretty freely on the subject. His

A correspondent of a Northern
paper says:
I'm talking with two citizens OF
Atlanta, one lately from the north
.ern part Of the State, and the other
from the SOUTHERN, put the ques
ton plainly to them if they did
not believe that since the civil
rights agitation there had been an
average of negro a day killed in
Georgia. They both answered that
they believe the average would
reach two day, and gave me in
stances that were painfully confirm
atory."
Ii that can be kept up long
enough it will insure Democratic
ascerdancy in the State for a good
while. By the way, Georgia is one
of the States alluded to by Govern
or Hendricks in his convention
speech, as peaceable, happy and
prosperous under Democratic rule.

Dcratic Estimate OF the Gulla,
bility Of the People.

bility Of the People.
We had supposed our ancient friend
Bentley, Of the Brookville Democrat,
had arrived at that time of life when
he would lay aside the Democratic
idea of the general gullability of the
people-that they were prepared to
swallow any and everything that might
be asserted, without question, after
being dipped in the old time patent
Democratic sop" but, from the fol-
lowing specimen Of crude quilting, he
has just perpetrated through his col
umns, We fear his old, bad habit of
perverting facts and elongatiag the
truth, will never leave him whilst he
edits Democratic paper!
In recent number of his paper he
asserts that, on the 4th day of March,
1863, Mr.. Claypool, being a member
of the Senate, moved to recommit a
Democratic bill introduced into that
body, ito prevent negroes and mulat-
toes from coming into the State" by
inserting in the proper place the fol-
lowing amendment:
"And it shall be lawful to kill any
negro or mulatto, when found in this
State, after the first day Of July, A.
d. 1863, who shall not be licensed I'M
der the provisions Of this act.
Instead of proposing this amend
ment as an enemy of the colored men
and coadjutor of the editor of the
Democrat and HIS partisan friends, as
our friend Bentley asserts and tries to
create the impression, Mr.. G. proposed
the amendment to show forth the
REAL disposition Of the Democratic
party Of that period towards the me-
groes and mulattoes-that they, as a
party, were not only opposed to their
having any political rights whatever,
but that one of their cardinal princi-
pies was that "a colored man had no
rights that white man was bound to
respect" and hence were also in favor
Of KILLING THEM and making it law
full to do SO; in short doing the same
thing the SAME Democratic party are
doing to day in Kentucky, Louisiana,
and other Southern States As a
party, the Democracy exhibit at every
period of our history the same indy
ing hostility towards the colored man
and, if he was not now a voter, and
the editor of the Democrat hadn't
thought the colored men could be
gulled into the support Of Mr.. Hol.
man-(who. in Congress, voted against
the 18th, 18th and 18th amendments
to the Constitution, comforting every
political right this class of our fellow
citizens now have, and placing thu
ballot in their hands, in order to pro
tect themselves in the enjoyment o
those rights, )-he never would hav'
committed to paper so little and meal
a charge against the Republican can
didate for Congress.
