that this measure places die State un

In IK2O they opposed tho establishment

In 1810 they refused the use of State
jails and Stale magistrates to execute die
Fugitive Slave law, on die ground dial the

In 1859 dicy declared ‘Hurt no war could
bo right, and no peace could bo wrong;’ j
that if the South desired to change their j
political relations and form of gov foment !
their right could not ho denied, lit 1802 i
they declared diet the trinity of our salva
tion was ‘taxation, emancipation and war.’
In 1859'hey declared that the interest of
the country required the restriction of
suffrage, and that the German, and Irish
and Swede ought lo be disfranchised. In
1807 they declared that the interest of 1
die country requires ils extension, and
that it must be given even to the negroes.
In 1859 Mr Chase, then Governot of Ohio,
asserted : ‘We have rights which the Fed
eral Government must not invade ; riglits
superior to its power, on which our sover
eignly depends; and we mean to assert
these rights against all tyrannical assump
tions of authority.’ In 1807, Gen' Hayes,
who, I am sorry lo say, is elccicil io be
Govcnor of Ohio, asserts that the Slates
have no sovereignty whatever.
In 1864 diey asserted that the President
had power, lay proclamation, to emancipate
four millions of slaves. In 1807 they de
ny that lie lias power to remove a member
of his Cabinet. (Covers.)

In 1808 Iliey established military com

an unanimous decision, declares these tri

In 1868 they vexed 11 with many oaths,

An Editor Sued.
'ihe editor of the Mustatinc (Iowa)
Courier was sued the other day'. lie
took it philosophically. Hear him :
‘i he dim recesses of our dark sanc
tum were illuminated yesterday by the
rubicund visage of our friend, Consta
ble Our hair stood on end as
with tears in li is eyes he proceeded to
read a verry nicely printed blank, on
which our name figured conspicuously
with that of Justice Klien. To cut
short a long article. We were sued.—
Were you ever sued, reader? Yes?
Nice, ain’t it? We put our pen be
hind our ear and looked wise at the
officer. lie trembled a little, for tho
idea of slicing an editor xvas new to
him. lie never imagined that any
thing could bo got out of‘them idlers,
by sueing—we didn’t cither. We
don’t now.
The art of sueing is a science.—
Young lawyers anxious fur suits some
times bring them for fun. Oi l ones,
however, never do anything of the
kind unless tin y ran get something
We lu'icr knew anybody to get any,
thing where there jvasn't anything to
ho had. We hope they’ll get judg
ment against us, then we hope they’ll
take out an execution, and lastly we
beg they,ll execute it. If we've got
any property we and like to know it.—
They might garnishee a lot of other
fellows wu owe around town. We
gurus they will. If they arc sharp
they’ll commence on George Scluieid
er. Wo owe him lor a glass of beer.
If th y get that it will help a litt.e. —
Fading in this we recommend them to
attack a box of soiled paper collars we
have on hind. Iliey hav’i.t been
turned y< t, and they might use the
clean side. If this won t do, we arc
unable to help them.’
Why Wo Won’t do it.
The Northern lit ieal papers scout
the idea of‘negro supremacy,’ and say
the whites could control all the South
ern States it they would give ever
their stubhunness and vote They
forget that it has been decreed that 00
matter how many votes the S ntherri
whites may east, the elections shall be
ecu' ted agaii st them. They forget
that orders have been issued to put re
construction through, nml the military
I'limmiindcrs are resolved to do it
without regaid to Hie moans. They
forget, that while every negro vote,
lawful and unlawful, is received and
counted, the registrars have the right
to revise the poll mil str.ke very
uh to man’s name from it if they feel
so disposed. To talk about freedom of
elections under the present, regime, it
the sheerest mockery. —Macon T<lc

concluding chapter of his novel :
‘II O (th'' hero of the story) hid had

advantage, found Leo still firm, and flint
