This is good news. If a few members of the Legislature of the same stripe would join them, it would be a great blessing to the party and a great help to the ticket." Here is a pretty mu?s to begin the campaign with. The Republican party carries in its own bosom the Beeds of dissolution. Its members return from the grand pow-wow in the Wigwam at Chicago to commence a free fight among themsclFcg at home. The rotten hulk of Abolitionism exhibits signs of going to pieces before the first gun of fh campaign has been fired. Democratic Citizen .

PLYMOUTH,

Yk " Cramjehrv Senator's" SrnEcii. At the request of many friends, both Democrats and Republicans, we publish the famous speech of Senator Brown. We are, as one of the able Senator's constituents, proud of it, and think it a gera in its way. Iu the Senate on Friday the lbth of February, lyj, Dr. Brown made a speech on the Bill abolishing the three township trustee system, and ( throwimr the business into the hands of one. The j following is a true eopv : j Mr. Brown. The gentleman says the north- ' cru t of the State are opposed to the cue man that my people, in St. Joseph and .Marshall are in favor of this reform, and have instructed me to go I for jt. They are willing even to strike out three, i aiu j,.,ve n,ut one C0Untv commissioner. They sav that one county commissioner ivill do as well as one Common Pleas Judge, or one Circuit Judge. Our county Auditor, who has been in th ; office ten years, says the business could b: dune by one as We would save at least kigiitv thocsa.nd Lollar; to this State by it, and if that ain't a little forward step:, 1 don't what is. (Laughter.) Party Si-hut. nie infatuatiou to which party spirit will sometimes lead men was never more forcibly exhibited than by the remark of a friend of mine the other day, who is, by the way, an accomplished scholar, and withall a CnrisTi.v: gentleman. We happened to be speaking of the two journ ils, Harper's Weekly and the New York Ledger, when he remarked that he considered the Ledger ! much the ablkst and best paper. Such an assertion from u man of his standing and charactc was so supremely ridiculous that your correspondent, Mr. Editor, couldn't believe, for a moment, that he was serious, until, en further conversation with him, the sccrrt spirit that moved him leaked out. Harper's Weikly, although the journal of no party or creed, has lately, through its able editorials, be n slowing up tke rottenness and corruption of Black Republican policy and practice, and the disunion and disorganizing seutiment.3 of BlackRepitblieati leaders. I remembered this, and it was suddenly very clear to mc why this scholarly gentleman and christian had formed such a sudden attachment for Sylvaims Cobb, et id omnc genus, uho fill the pages of the Ledger with " blood and thunder storics." KKAM. A 1"i ll Gorgk ok NiccER. At the 'ate corporation election in Iledford, Mass., says the Crawford Forum, Edward M. Robinson, a gentleman worth his millions, was elected a member of the city coun.il fiom the fouith ward, but not liking the way his lellow laborers worked, resigned his seat, and there was an election to li 11 the vacancy. Morrill Robinson, E.-q., a white lawyer, was one of the candidates, and Thomas Ravnc, a black man, was the other. Uayne got the most votes and was declared elected, and took his scat. Since then his free-soil f riends have been doing their best to get him to resign, but he keeps a siilf upper lip, and won't do it. They now threaten to put him out by law, but the gallant darkey tells them to fro ahead. So far llayne lias the best of it. The negro worshippers of New Bedford, although they can hold John Brown meetings, and talk loudly about their willingness at any time to resist the fugitive .-lave law, yet do not desire a negro in their city council. They don't think it looks well ; they ni e afraid if it was known, that other places would laugh at them. So the New Bedford papers arc silent on the subject, while the inter.ial warfare j. oes on. The joke is, however, too good to be lost. Dayton Empire. 11k not Deceived. Some of the Republican politicians and newspapers, who profess to a degree of eonservativeism on the slavery question, and pretend to be horrified at the doctrines of Chase, Seward, Giddinjrs and others, are trying to make the people believe that Mr. Lincoln was selected at Chicago because he was a moderate man and held opinions adverse to the 4 hither law and 4 ir repress, !o conflict' doctrine ol' the leaders of the! party. IJut that is not true, the jeoj.Ie inust take ! care that tin y are not deceived bv siu-h state ments. In the sj.eec!i made by Sir. Lincoln in this city last fall no referred to the fact that Mr. Seward had proclaimed the 4 irrepressible eontlet' doctrine at Rochester, and said, While I inn here on this subject, I can not bui. express gratitude that this true view of this element of discord auiomr us as I be'ieveitis is attracting more and more attention. I do not believe that Governor Seward uttered that sentiment because I had done so before, but because he reflected on the subject and sav,- the truth of it. Here Mr. Lincoln claims the paternity of this 4 irrepressible conllict,' and takes especial care to guard against the impression that Mr. Reward was its author. Those, therefore, who attempt to palm Mr. Lincoln off as a .-iode-ratc man on the td&vcry question, do it at the expense of truth. He is a man after Joshua R. Gildings' own he-art a real out and out 4 higher law Abolitionist. Ohio Statesman. Let Them Alone. The Pettrsb irgLVr, an ably edited penny paper, in Virginia, doubtless represents the true sentiments of the mass of Southern peoj.le. and only ask at the hands of the North what the South is justly entitled to under the Constitution and laws, in the following words : 44 We care not a straw about anti-slavery sentiments in the abstract. The people at the North are welcome to think that tho institution is a wrong or an evil. We know that with few exceptions, they are all opposed to it. What the South wants and asks is that they will leave it to be dealt by her otcn people in her own tray and not to be making it a ground cf incessant ontriy, agitation, insult and outrage, in the way they are doing. We fimply desire and demand that we thall be let alone in tins matter, so that we may peacefully enjoy the bene liU of the sacred compact of the Union which our fathers established. Nrvlr Si-lit a Rail An old citizen ho traveled much in Illinois thirty years ago, and was especially familiar with the district of country where Abe Lincoln rcnidcd, says that Abe never split it rail in his life. In those days, he says, the people never thought of such a. thing as splitting rails. They went into the swamps and cut hoop-poles and saplings for fences, and used them round as nature made them.

The Contest betweun Lincoln' and Douglas. The editor of the Washington States, in an article on the celebrated political contest between Douglas and Lincoln, iu Illinois, in 15?, says of it: The fact is that the main contest between Mr. Douglas and 1,1 v. Lincoln was ia the central counties where parties were nearly equally ballanccd, and a few votes gained from one side to the other decided tho result. Iu thsse counties it was, and Mr. Lincoln's county was one of them. It had been uniformly opposition for mote thaa twenty years, Tintil this contctt when Mr. Douglass carried lhc cour.ty, and secured two members of the Legislature by nearly Live hundred majority. It is notorious that Douglas' gains and Lincoln's losses were in those very counties where itey ii.ii both i.ivny, and had piaclieed law, und made speeches for many years, and where they were both personally known to the people. It is a little remarkable that he last syllable of Abraham Li neu lr?

It is also a curious fact that the first syllable of Lincoln is the last syllable of Hamlin. State Journal. It is also a curious fact' that the last syllable of Abraham Lincoln's first name,' and the first svllable of Hamlin's ditto, represent a portion of a portion of a ?winc. We trust this important fact won't induce them to make hogs of themselves because they got the nomination for nothing. Cairo Gazette. And is it not true alio that Ham is the name of the first colored man. Theru is a disjxition often seen in the human race to preserve family names, and the Republicans seem to follow the old custom.
