Milton Gregg on the Rebnblican Platform W arc happy to announce that oar friend Gregg, who hae been the principal support of Fillmoriatn in Indiana, has announced himself a deeided Republican in principle. We hoped, all along, that hie seeming antagonism lo Republicanism was more from a misunderstanding of its positions and purposes, th in from hostility to them. We knew indeed that he was opposed to tho extension of slarery over free territory. No man, two years ago did bettf r service in tbe and Nebraska cause than be. We are bappy to learn that he is not alienated from the principles which he then so earnestly and successfully defended, Tbe following is a declaration oi bis faith: "The true policy, and indeed the only policy that can or ought to succeed in this country, is to respect the right! of others, while we rigidly maintain our own. Upon this basis we aro ready to fight Locofooism, Nebraskftism. and every other infernal itm that is at war with the beat interests A the country, so long as we are able to raise our voice, or wield a pen. But we can join in no crusade against the compromises of the Constitution, in order to abridge the rights of the South, or cripple the institution of slavery where it already exists uoer color of law." This is genuine Republicanism, as we nndertUnd it. We can endorse no other kind. We shall as earnestly and faithfully "respect the rights of others the compromises of tbe Constitution" as we shall maintain our own. X-) Republican, that wo know ot, wishes to "cripple the institution of slavery where it already exists under color of raw," except in Kansas. Against slavery in Kansas, or any other territory "Consecrated to freebom by the Missouri Compromise or otherwise" we shall wage nn eternal war. No "Color of law" now or hereafter, shall ever make us recognize the right to hold slaves in Kansas any more than we would recognise a right to pr..n;rty in a stolen horse, though it may have passed through a hundred h ind. That land belongs to freedom and to freeman, by tbe most binding of "Cumpromiseu." Even after the re moval of the prohibition, bad freedom hud a fair chance, it would yet be free. Hence no "color of law" shall ev er make us respect the rights of slaveholder there. Uut in slave states we hall, snd so do all. Republicans. Long before another presidential can ass, the true position of the Republi ean party will be understood, and troops of friends will flock around it Meanwhile, let us look after the inter ests of our own state, Let us amend our constitution so as to prevent aliensuffrage, and secure a prohibitory law. and we will lop off from the party in power 40,000 votes. United States Senators. The returns from States which choso Legislatures at the late election are now sufficiently full to iudicate their bearings on the United States Senate- In the Free States, the following are the pros pects; Maine chooses another Republican in the place of Hannibal Hamlin, who has been elected Governor. Massachusetts is likely to re-elect Charles Sumner, should his health ena ble him to serve. Rhode Island elects a Republican in place of Charles T. James, who was el ected six years ago, as a Tr riff Demo crat. Connecticut hss slready chosen a Republ. can senator to take tho place of Isaac Tousey, Democrat. New York will elect a 'Republican in place of Hamilton Fish. P.-nnsy Ivsnia re-elects Mr, Broadhead or some other apostle of wbst passes for Democracy. New Jersey will again choose Mr Thompson, or another latter, day Demo erat of the same school. Michigan elects a Republican in the place of "the great Micbigander ,"J whom the people have chosen, by nearly twen ty thousand majority, to retire to tbe shades of private life. Inuiaiia has two Senators to choose but the Republieays having a majority in the Senate, may poasibiy refuse to go in'o joint ballot, and thus postpone the election (or two years. Like other edge tools, political maneuvers work both ways. California has also two vacancies, and the prospects there may be learned by the next steamer. W icunsln elects s Republican, in the place of Dodge, Democrat. In tbe Sl.iv. State io changes occur that wii affect the great issue of the day. Again of .'our Senator, with a poaaibiiitv of one or two more from California, shows that something substantial has been achieved by tbe Republican party.
The General Result We snnounced. two weeks ago, tho general result Buchanan is elected. We could have given probable majorities but we prefer to wait until wc ean give the ofllcial votes of each State. We have however received information enough to give, in round numbers, the following facts, figures and comparisons. In 1852 Mr. Pierce came into the Presidency with a very great majority. It was not a plurality, but an absolute majority, as the following vote will bow: For Pierce, 1,596,395 For Scott, 1,393,089 For Hale, Free soil, 158,133 Msjority over Scott, 303,306 " over Scott and Hale, 45,183 Such was the overwhelming majority of the Democracy this. In less than twelve months, Mr. Pierce had broken up his party by siding with the Nullitiers in the South, and the Softs in New York his composite administration fell st once into the hands of the poorest politicians, as well as the worst demogogues of his party, to the great disgust of ita honest and capable men. Tho Nebraska Act completed his downfsll, and occasioned the formation of a new party
in the free latos, baaed on the great wrong of the rspeal of the Missouri Compromise. In the Southern States, tbe main body of the Whigs, with a few Democrats, supported Mr. Fillmore ss a Conservative, in opposition to the Urs slave party. In the Freo States, notwithstanding all the wrangling be tween the aupporters of Fillmore and Fremont, one thing is palpable, that both were opposed to the repeal of the Missouri Compromise and the extension of slavery by acts of Government. Substantially therefore, (however differ ing about men and modes,) tho whole vote given for either Fremont or Fill more is a vote agsinat Buchanan and the policy of the Democratic party. The exceptions to this aro very few. Let us then compare the votes of this year and see how popular Mr. Buchanan In the South, Buchanan's majorities over Fillmore, are about 40,000 greater lian Pierce's over Scott in 1853 show--a a ;. a Mm . iL. ng tne tncreaseu commence oi me outh in Democracy aa a friend to Sou thern Interests and Institutions. Uut n the North it is otherwise. By compa ring Buchanan's msjorkties over Fre mont with Pierce's over Scott, in the North, he has lost 350,000. Assuming that the vote for Fillmore, in the North, is what we suppose it is, anti-Pierce and antl-Buhcanan policy, and that vote in the North is about 350,000, we havo a Jots in the North, of about 000,000, from the majorities of the Democratic party of 1853. But, adding his entire majorities, North and South, and deduc ting them from tho votes against him, there is a loss in msjorltiea of near 400, 000, leaving him about 250,000 in the minority of the popular vote But more of this hcreaftor. This it enough to how that the Republicans have done wonders, and Mr. Buchanan must be a wise ss a serpent to conduct his admin atration so aa not to combino this oppo sition. Dunning. Our,exchanges, of both parties, are dunning the late candidates for their fees for announcing their names, and print ing their tickets. Why don't they adopt our rule announce no name ex cept on sdvsnce payment, or for such persons as do not need dunning! Our candidates all, paid m advance except such is we can trust to psy without dunning. Let printers adopt tho advance system, or publsh delinquent candidates, just as they would anybody elae who neglects to pay,' and this system of dun ning would at onco be at sn end. Wo think a man is bsd enough who will sub scribe for s paper and not pay , but the man who will run for oflke, and not pay ft r his tickets, should be published as themeaneat kind of a man. We have adopted this rule, and recommend it to our editorial brethren. We don't ssk a man to come to town, just to pay us, hence we wait, but after due delay we get ep a black list. Hot Defeated Only Outnumbered. Freedom's batllaonca bsfan, Bequeathed from bleeding a Ira to son, Too' baffled oft, Is avsr woo." We are delighted with'the unanimity with which Fremont la nominated for the Presidency in 1860. Those who count the Republican party defeated, neither know ita men or measures. But few have entered its rtnks for a mere summer's campaign Its men have en listed during the entire war, and they intend to struggle on until the truths taught by our fathers, and the principlea that guided them are again acknowledg ed. We are willing to give the incoming administration a fair trial, but it must reverse the movements of the present one, or be the last administration that ahall be aubservient to the South. The Begged Orphan. We ahall loae largely on this paper, unleas those who pledged something redeem their pledges. It was not the work of the candidates, though they will help us as much as they ought to. If you can not raise the full amount prom ised, raise wbst you can, and send it along, and let us know how much we must lose on it- Don't face on your obligations because you are defeated. False Pretences. Bloom, of Rushville, whose arrest for obtaining goods under false pretences we noticed a lew weeks ego, was brought before Judge Storer, last week on a writ of Habeas Corpus. After a hearing the Judge remanded'him to priaon. The Judge said: Although the remedy resorted to was a hard one; one that he (Judge Storer), utterly repudiated the taking of a man, body yet sometimes it may be ner.esaary for the purpose of justice . Where a clear case was made out in point of law of a fraudulent contract, the Code allows the aarest of the body; and however hard it might be, the Court could not prevent the operation of this law. The motion should be dismissed and the party remanded to custody.
Agricultural Try Experimente,
Wo don't care a copper whether our agricultural readers like our suggestions or not. We shall treat them just as ws do politicians say what we think, and let thorn m iko of it what they pleas... If, with all tho improvements of the day, such men as Brady and Barbour and Shirk and Shultz and Line nnd McCarty nnd McClure and Evern nnd Roberts and Scoby are willing to go pod-auger-ing along, we shall pity them, nnd show our pity bynn occasional hint perhaps we shall become personal and name them right out. Come, gentlemen, it is not all that yon owe to your country to raise big bogs and cows and keep up ft-ncea. We want to know fioio it is dons, and how it is to be don? cheapest, quickest and best. On our fourth page will be found a chemical analysis of cobs that is worth reading. Vol wo mean no disparagement of Dr. Wayne, nor of scientific research, when ws say that if these men were to experiment one year, on the use of cob meal, submiting it to the best chcmicnl 'aboratory in the world, for such purposes the stomachs of hogs, horses and cattle, there would be u fund of knowledge evolved that would be worth forty experiments by a city "chemist." Be your own chemists. If the use of the cohs. ground with the corn and cook ed, will save, as some alledge, one half the corn, or aa others, one third, let it be known. It will cost but little to test it. If it is a humbug, we want to know it. One of our farm ers, David Barnard, IU piga ut 12 months old. weighing as much as those of some of his neighbors at 18 or 24 months. Ho feeds them on cooked, ground food, though he has to shell the corn nnd take it to milt. By the w aid of tho improved Little Giant, and the patent Boiler, nnd a patent pig trough, like Mr. Brady's, this can bo done with but little extra trouble Even cooking in the ear will save one third, according to Mr. Stoweof Switserland Now we propose to these men, all of them, and as many others ss wish to really improve agriculture, that they take one lot of pigs and feed them on dry corn in the ear, another lot, corn in thejeiir boiled, another lot corn meal boiled, another lot corn and cob meal, nnd let us know at the end of lie year how much is gained or lost by each method of fi eding. We will give a year's subscription of the American to any ono who will report nt tho next Fair, the result of such nn npcrimunt. We with to say, once for all, to the gentlemen in Fayette sounly, who enquire of us concerning the Iowa Land Agency by which they sent largo amounts of gold to Iowa, that wo know nothing about the business of that agent. We have been informed that the gold was invested in Land Warrants, before tue land offi ces were closed, and can't be changed back again, except nt n sacrifice, nor can tho Warrants bo used, until the Railroad tets its share of tho land. Wc give, no credit to the rumors that the agent is likely to becomu insolvent. We think them improbable, unless the Iowa land bubhle should explode sooner than wo Hunk it will. We know nothing about tho law's holding an agent responsible for damages for delaying, by the w i , ral . i, till tho Land offices wero closed, nor whether the Agent js i ('sponsible for interest, or whether he can be com pelled to return tho money, or wheth er he may not hold on to the money or warrants untill tho offices open, If that be for years. As to damages, wo think that would bo extremely hard to prove. If some reports bo truo, we would rather have the money than the land. The gentlemen referred to may rely upon whatever justice tha law in tbe caso will afford. If they want to know what that is, they must consult legal gentlemen, or enclose us a good big fee. Wo don't know much about the tricks of the law, und what we do, we must sell high. Wo answer the questions or rather refuse to answer them, in this way, to avoid further questions from similar sources. Wo withhold namas, so as not to do injustice to any one. Thosu intorested will understand who is meant' The Majorities. We shall give the official vote of this State by counties, for Governor and President, as'soon as it can be obtained and the full vote of each State for President- But, as some are impatient to learu the result, wo would say, in round numbers, from the information received, that Buchanan's majority over Fremont in Indiana is not far from 21.000. Fillmore's vote is about 23,000, leaving Buchanan in a minority. We can speak more definitely next week. In tho United States, Buchanan's popular vote is only about 12.000 over Fremont, and lacks at least 250,000 of a majority over Fremont and (Fillmore. Such at least ia the appearance of things now. Willard's majority in Indiana is 6,018. Sensible. It is rumored that Mr. BuchanaudoeB not intend to undertake the occupancy of the White House alone. Ho feels the necessity of a help meet; and is said to have mode arrangements for a joint tenancy with an accomplished Southern widow who has had the advantage of a four years' experience in that position. This is the mot sensible thing we have hoard ot Buchanan's doing since the canvass opened. If it prove true, we slittll have the must sanguine hopes of his Administration- This may account for the sudden burking of the story that atarted the rounds in Harper some months since, about bis early love experiences.
jibe Plot Opens Tbe Slave Trade
to be Authorized Cuba to be annexed. Though We confidently believed und repeatedly stated that the annexation of Cuba and the re-opening of the slave trade would be leading measures of Buchanan's iidministration, we did not believe that they would be urged so soon Already tho Charleston Standard is advocating it, and the Cincinnati Enquirer ia winking at the one tnd advocating the other. The following is from the Enquirer of Saturday the loth inst: The Slave Trade. An article appeared several days ago in th" Charleston Standard, in which reference was made to the reopening of the slave-trade, as an im portant measure for the increase of NM power nnd the full development of the Southern States of this continent This article supplied inexhaustable texts for all the Black Republican journals in the Union to harp upon, as one of tl.e links of proof to connect th- Democratic party with a grand scheme for the extension of slave territory. This is characteristic logic. A single journal of small pretensions, published in a State which holds itself aloof from the political parties of the country where both tne politicians anil journals uro notoriously eccentric and peculiar in all their political ideas has the power to impose on a great party, which extends through thirtyone States and a half a doten Territories of the Union, the responsibility for so serious and important a divergence from the long settled policy and ethes of the civilised world, as this proposition to re-open the slave trade would involve. (1.) This charge of a purposu to revive the slave-trade la the wildest and most preposterous of fabrications. Even if such an idea had obtained anv prevalence in tho South, there is no honest or sane man who imagines or believes that It w.iuhl hnrl any countenance or support a! the North. (.) Kven in the huuth, the slightest knowledge of the condition, the policy nnd feelings of the people of that section ought to dispel all such ideas and apprehensions. The great predominating power and interest in those Status is that of the slave-holders. The chief capital of those States consists is slnves, and that capital controls the sentiments nnd policy of the States. (3.) To suppose thatihe slaveholders would sanction a reopening of the slavetrade, is quite as resnsonable as to sicpert a man who owns all the Amir in Cincinnati, and thereby commands the market, of desiring to see that supply doubted, and the price prujiortionatt ly reduced. Tho value of tho slaves would, of course, decline with the increase of the number. The writers who try to impose this silly humbug on the unsuspecting and uninformed, are either too ignorant or too dishonest to atate that tho Southern bUtes have always insisted with great pertinacity Sn the rigid enforcement of the lawa and treaties against the slave-trade, as a measure protec tive of their interesta. (4. J there has been only a partial suppression of the trade in Cuba. It will continue as long Hs the Spaniard hold the island, more or less active, according to the honesty of the officials. The only complete and effectual suppression of this traffic will be accomplished when tho United States acquires possession and control of tbe island. Those who desire, therefore, to arrest so dreadful an evil, and remove from our hemisphere the disg;ace and uhatuo of its continuance, ought to lend their countenance and support to the scheme for acquiring the island. Such a measure would not add to the number of slaves, but would save thousands nnd millions of poor negroes from being torn from Afrioa, subjected to the horrors of the middle passage, nnd consigned to eternal bondage, (Ö.) On this startling doclrino of tho Northern mouthpleco of Democracy, edited by a Louisianaian, we wiah to mako a few remarks: 1 "Eccentric and peculiar" as are tho 'political Ideas" of South Csrollna politics, we havo seen a president elected to endorse and carry out tho groat idea of ono of South Carolina's most "oxcentric and peculiar" politicians.--John C. Calhoou was the lather of modern "squattor sovereignty" of the doctrine that slavery is national and may go wherever the constitution goes. Tho doctrine was hooted at until in 1853, when Douglas brought it forward, and the entire party endorsed it, electing a president on It. Even the preaident elect, in 1848 only six years age most emphatically denied the doctrine, but so easy is tho descent to A vermis, that even he has renounced his own lifelong faith and become a convert to South Carolina "eccentricitios." The proposition to reopen tho slave trade, is not so great "a divergence from tho long settled policy and ethics" of this country as the repeal of the Missouri Compromise would have been regarded four years ogo. This was regarded as the most improbable schemo evor pro posed, yet South Carolina triumphed, and tho Northern Democracy assented. Wc confidently expect to hear the slave t rude defended as indispensible to the de velopment of a free government, in less than two years. 2. No one would have supposed four years ago that the opening of free territory to slavery as in Kansas, would find any countinancc nnd support in the north, but it does. Just let South Car olina ruise tier wlnp and threaten to dissolve the Union, and thousands will cry out, Great and Democratic is the slave trade ! 3. If the Enquirer had added that aiave property not only control the policy of the south, but of the north, also it would have been right. 4. The South were the originators and friends of the Missouri Compromise and "insisted with great pertinacity" on its observance, until its interests demanded its repeal. 5 This is to bo the plea Annex Cuba to suppress the slave trade. The Makkkts. In Cincinnati, last Tuesday, hogs were selling at, from 5,66 to 5,80, and tending downward; flower 5,00, wheat, 1,05, rye 78, oats 38, corn 45, potatoes 85.

The whole foreign vote Irish nnd German, has been cast for Buchanan. There may have boon here and there some scattering German votes given for Krcmont. In this city and in ono or two of Western Stalet, this has probably been tho case: but on the whole we do not believe that one tenth part of the German vote hits been given to the Republican ticket. As for the Irish they havo gono in a drove, as they always do go,- for the regular Democratic ticket. They will probably never do any thing else, as long as they remain Irish, and it takes at least two generations to convert them into Americans. Xeto York Ttmes. In this county, the educated and more intelligent Ocrmnns voted for Fremont. Thoso who understand but little English, and aro thus liable tobe duped by demagogues, voted for Buchanan, though wo believe, in heart, they opposo slavery extension. Ono remedy to this is to amend the Constitution so as to let none but Americans we mean thosu who were born here or who havo been naturalised, vote To this, nearly every intelligent foreigner heartily agrees. "As for tho Irish" in this county, they nearly all voted for Fremont. They are mostly intelligent protestants, nnd enter heartily in the contest against slavery. It is only tho Catholic Irish the ignorant, drunken, wandering Irish who cannot be Americanized in less than two gem-rations. We have none ot tlx m. Ministerial Association. At the repuest of several of the preachers, the time of the Ministerial Association of the Connersville District has been changed to Wednesday and Thursday, the 17th nnd 18th of December. The time in tho Advocate is an error. The programme of exercises will be the same as heretofore published. The Press. The Washington Union rejoices over (he defeat of Fremont because it shows how little influence the Nswspoper press has in the formation of public opinion. This is a curious fact for a newspaper to rejoice over, even if it were true, But in precisely those States where newspapers are most widely diffused and read, Fremont's msjorities have been the heaviest. It is in the Slave States where, on the average, one in ter of the free whites over twenty yeara of age cannot read, and in New Jersey and Pennsylvania, Southern Illinois and Southern Indiana, which road newspapers less than any of the other Free States, that Mr. Buchanan has received his majorities. Take this county as an illustration. In Ray, Highland and Butler townships, the Buchanan majoritiea amount to 683, yet, in those townships, there are not 100 Republican papers taken probably not 200 of all kinds. Newspapers are death on old lineism.
The Durability of the Little Qiant. The following letter from Mr. Moore, of Msoresville, may cast some light on this subject,: Moobesville, Nov. 7, '56. Mr. P.S. Berkenmster Dear Sir: The laat Corn snd Cob Mill (s Little Giant) I bought of you, has proved to be a very good one, grinding very fast and fine. I have heard some farmer ask if they were durable. The first mill I bought of you I have used two winters, feeding cattle, and I am confident that I have ground from ten to twelve thousand bushels of corn In the ear on it, and do not see but that it is ss good now as when I first bought it. i believe three bushels of ground corn is worth more than four bushels fed in the ear to cattle. Indeed I don't see how any good farmer
can do without a corn mill. Yours, respectfully, Samuel Moors. 0 Few men ever passed through so bitter and earnest a canvass, as thst which has iust terminated, with so little of personal obloquy or impeachment as James Buchanan. Ctn. .'-. This ia a well deserved but unintentional compliment to the Republicans. They havo scorned to deal in low personalities while conducting a canvasa in volving such vital principles. They had enough to say against the measures of Mr. Buchanan, to let the man alone, except by an occasional good-natured squib at his bachelorism, or something of that kind. On the other hand, tho supporters of Mr. Iluchanan failed to discuss meaaures, and descended to the vilest persons! abuse, even to calling Fremont's mother sn adultrcos, and Fremont a bastsrd. The people will mork this. (r Indiana, though an apparent, is no real exception. More than Twenty Thousand majority of her native citisens have voted with us, but they ere overborne by Foity Thousand unnaturalixed immigrants, who are mainly allowed to vote by her constitution, and who have gone in anhd maaa against the cause of Free Labor. But for them, the North West would havo shown sn unbroken front for Free Soil and Fremont. If. Y. Trib. True, O Ureeley, and the Republicans of Indisna who respect themselves, will never ceaso their war, both upon the extension uf slavory, and their subjection to tho dominion of aliens. Indiana ia ruled by those who owe allegiance to foreign despots. All, or nearly all, of tho educated and naturaliird foreign-born citisens voted with tho Republicans, while nearly every alien voter in the State voted for Whisky and Wlllard, Slavery and Buchanan. One good rrault of the late election has been to convince those Republicans who wero I ready to bow to forelgnera of all grades, that unnaturalized foreigners cannot bo depended upon in a struggle againat oppression and wrong. Schroyer House, Harrison, Though it has not been our luck to test tho excellencies of this house, on the corner, wo learn from those who have that it is in excellent order and n excellent place lo refresh at, both for man and beast. Hogs Probable Prices. Those who believe that the crop of hogs will bo os large ss last season, are more numerous than those who antieifiats a deficiency. There ia now no oreign demand, and it is generally conceded, we believe, that the exports to Kurope for the ensuing year will fall considerably abort, ss compared with tho season just closed. These views are of course againat high prices; and boing apparently well founded, it will bo difficult to drive dealers entertaining them, from their position. Those who havo hogs to sell will, therefore, perceive that it will not be safe to make calculations upon realising 86 ou per 100 Iba nett. For the one dealer who would at thia time be willing to transact a regular business at 00, there are ton who consider that it would bo unaafe to psy over an average of $5. Ths tendency is now towarda thia figure. Some daya ago sales were made at $6:874, while yesterday the market waa dull at 6. To check thia downward tendency will require a very decided resctlon in the provision market, whieh at this time does not seem probable. Cta. Gazette , Nov. list, Footprints or DxMocaAor. In the 9th (Illinois) Congressional District there are 1 1,186 adult persons who can neither read nor write. In this district Buchanan received 1U.00U majority. In Winnebago county where there are only nine persons who cannot read nor write Krcmont ha.s ii majority of 3,200. The Democrats should abolish tho Free School system. Ignorance is the main support of this par1 03T We wero informed by Mr. Alexander Cockefair, that he waa present a few daya ago at our old friend Adam Pigman's near, Fairfield, and witneased the operation called, we believe, by doctors, Paracentecis Thoracis, or tapping the chest, (which was successful in the removal of near a quart of put) by Dr. Babb, the associate of Dr. Elliott, recently elected Treaaurer of Franklin county. Dr. Babb takes the place of Dr. Elliott, who, we understand, will remove to Brookville next spring. Coa. 1W. The Germans. In the great battle which has just been fought for freedom, nobly did the Germans of our county do theirj duty. They have proved tbcinselvesjfto be the votaries of liberty, and the enemies of oppres sion and slaveiy. They were among the most earnest and determined men on the day of election, doing all in their power to advance the cause of Fremont and Freedom. All honor to the gallant and patriotic Germans of Jo 2?aviess county, who have so nobly upheld the banner of liberty. Oalena Gazette J"The trial of Corn and Cob Mills at Eaton. Saturday, was only between the Little Giant and Excelsior. We ars informed that the unanimous decision of the farmers, to the number of about a hundred, who had assembled to witness it, was in favor of the Little Giant, both for speed and Gneness of grinding with less power.

The Union Must be Dissolved, any
How. While our Democratic neighbors are heading their election newa with, ' THE UNION SAFE," ia large capitals, their soulhrsn masters are getting up new troubles. We knew all the time, that it waa merely to scare nervous old women and cowardly men that southern maatcra held the whip over their northern slaves and said, if you don't vote as we dictate, we'll make you we'll dissolve the Union. No sensible msn could see any reaaon why it was un constitutional to exercise the rights of freemen. But the threat had its desired effect. There were found cowards enough in Indiana, Illinois and Pennsylvania to give those statea to the south, for fear of tbe lash of their mas ters, and now theae masters chuckle over it. In a letter from Ex Senator Rheitt, of South Carolina, to the Gover nor of that State, he thus alluded to it The late Presidential election might be appealed to as proving that we have a power in the Union which might yet reform it, and make ut free under ita Government. It does show the folly of our past submission. It does prove that the msnifeststion of s resolute spirit of resistance is, and ever hsa been, the on ly means of checking the presumptuous nggressions of the North. Admit that, by the Presidential elec lion, we ahall win Kanaas will that put an end to Anti-Slavery agitation in ConS'ess or jthe Union 1 What produced s defeat of the Abolitionists in tbe North 1 Simply an apprehension that the South would dissolve the Union, if they were successful. Interest maater ed fanaticism. That is all. I can see nothing in the whole Pres idential election, nothing in the history of tho paat, which affords any good rea son lo believe that tho North will ever allow ua to set up by the Constitution the efficient barriers to their power our liberty requires. They may yield here after, as they have done before, to pre vent presure ; but it will only be to disarm resistance, that they may return, at some future day, to the e .sier completion of their policy. They may now yield Kansas, as they yielded the Tar iff of 1828, but they expect to regain Kansas, as they gained the Protective policy. Once they respected, perhapa feared us, but by our repeated acta ot sobmi aion to their aggreaaions, we have lost both their respeefcand fear. I hey actually now believe thst ws ars afraid of them and of ourselves. They will risk disunion rather than make constitution al concessions, which will divest them of thsir power over ua ; and not until they havo practically learned what disunion is, will they either respect us or show us justice. The next Congress will witness renewed efforts for the plunder of the South by their grand alternative tho Tariff. If such shall be ths true stste of our aflairs, what courae should the South puraue F In my humble judgment, all true atateamanship in the South consists In forming combinations, and shaping events, so as to bring about, as speedily aa possible, a dissolution of tho present Union, and a Southren Confederacy. Let the South-formerly I would have aaid, let South Carolins, demand, in the approaching modifications of the Tariff, that it ahall be reduced at least to the standard and principles of the Tariff of 1833. If such a Tariff is not conceded to us, why should South Carolina, or any other Southern State, any longer keep representatives in Congress 7 Even if wo aru not prepared to secede from the Union, why sanction, by our representation, tbe acts of our oppressors, and swell the pomp and minister to tbe power of the General Government ? The withdrawal ol the representatives of the State from Congress, will enable them to bo of more use, in two yeara, than by fifty years of service at Washington under the preaent condition of the Union. And why should wo not dissolve our political connection with the people of the North? Have we not in vain done our duty to tbem, in all patience and humility f Ars there any remembrances of the paat which they have not imbitlered, or feelings of affection which they have not outraged? Have they not, for a long course of years, put upon us indignities nnd wrongs which they never would have borne from us or from any other people? Their conduct towards us, if we wero independent nations, would long since have justified us in declaring war against them. There it is, ye slaves of southren masters. You have it thrown in your teeth in less than a month by those who hold the rod over you. You voted as they directed, "simply from an apprehension that the South would dissolve tho Union." Don't you feel liko a slave to have it so soon thrown up to you, that you are ons ? And now, having submitted once you must come under the yoke again. The tariff must be made to suit the cotton and sugar interest of the south. It is not enough that you arc made to pay from 12 to 16 cents for'sugar which could be bought for 8 cents, but for the prohibitory duties upon it a high protective tariff, but further modifications must be made. "If such a tariff is not conceeded" then the Union must be dissolved. Come slaves, do you hear your master's Toice? His whip cracks; jump, quick, or it will fall. To us this threat is contemptible. We despise the man that makes it, and the man that is terrified by it. Where is Judge Logan ? Let him plead for his masters. Orlt you want a cheap farm call on Joel V an meter.
