The corruptions end the troason disclosed
in the costom-house under Mr, Barney's
Wenspement were deemed no reason for the
removal of thgt incompetent officer. His in-
competency to distribute the patronage of
the custcm-house and use the services of its

were deemed a evfficient reason for his re-

from abolition papers were copied by tha

senting the real opinion of the North.
So at the North. Violent articles from the

copied here by Republican papsraas repre

present lamentable condition.
Andtho same course is pursued how in
ordor to keep up tharanimosity between the
two sections.
We eball, in this campaign, find northern
Republican papers full of letters from the
South, professing to desire MoCirruan’s
election. Some of these will be outright for-
geries, protended to be found in intercepted
southern msile, and as these things are en-
tirely under the control of government
officials, the danger of such frauds is easily

THE SHORTSIGHTEDNSES OF ADBOLITION-
Sat.
There aro st the North two sorta of aboli-
tionists, There are those who bellove slavery
® sin, and, perhops honestly believing that
it is their duty to do all in their power to rid
the nation of it, come easily to the conclusion
that all means are lawful to that end. For
those who, like GARRISON, have been con”
sistent, and who have suffered imprisooment
and persecution for opinion’s sake, we must
entertain a certain reapoct, even if we do not
agree with them.
' But there is anotber cliss of mon at the
North, who have taken hold of abolitionism
merely to get votes and political power; and
who, finding that the abolitionists would not
be ecnjoled by them, or come over to them,
have gone over to the abolitionists. Mor a
long time they endesvored to keep up the
nodonbt. They are the men who atiil retain
an attachment for the old Union.
Ou the utber hand, the sincere disunioniste
at the Sonth, those whose fortunes are ataked
on the success of the rebellion, must desire ,
the success of Linconn. As long as Lin.

Ac length affairs reached such an enormous
height that public indignation took hold of
the matter, end clemored for an investigation

out for himself by roferring to the yory no-
torious trial we liave lad uader noticas ~The

that consideration had beon sllowed to her
in the matter, on s-note from Mr. Lrgooun,
direcily introducing this relative of his to
the officer, 800 Atrostly requesting sald offi-
cer to glvo to said lady a “contract!” This
note, signed ‘A, Luxcons,” is on rasord in
the officiel proceedings to which we have ro-
ferred, ond can be sean by any one who takea
the necessary troable,
Tt muss, of course, be needless to add that
cthe proceedings against the officer in quee-
tion at once, after this, became a farce; and
that, with sowe little delay—jast enough to
let public indignation cool down—he was
set at liberty wirhoat cithor imprieonment or
fine. Thisis but the initial chapter in a
yolume inexhaustibly prolific; and wo shall
continue these rather striking illustrations of
the “Lonesty” of Mr, Linco, as time and

REPUBLICAN DELUSIONS.
“The back bone of the rebellion is near
ly broken,” cry with. one accord all the
Lincolu organs ; “a handred thonsand more
men aud the confederacy falls.”
So it has been from the begioning. Let us
go over the catalopue of the delusions aud the
falee and fatal prophesies of Republican lead-
era:

The blood starts with the sweat of tho
southern people, we verily believe
They are wreoching every mnecle and
straining every nerve, aod they groan
in the excess of their exertion no doabt ;
but they ere not exhausted, nor near
to cxlaustion, and we would warn our
Republican friends sgainst the decoitfal
Tures by which Mr. Lrncoun hopes to catch
their voles.
Mr, Lincoun bas managed during the
three years he has been in offlcato ewell
the public debt of the United States to abont
soven hundred million dollars more than the
whole expenses of the government from the
Declaration of Independence to March 4,
1661. Can we afford soch s President for
four yeers more?
The people will do well to bear in mind
that the election of the Republica candidate
for President means s continuatfon of tho
present system of finance, which has pro-
duced euch high prices a3 to ronder it diffi-
cuit for the masses of tho paople to live
comfortably.
The people will do well to remember that
My, Cusp, and all the leading Republicans,
and their journals throaghout the country,
assured them in Febraary, 1862, before aud
after the passage of the legal-tender note bill,
that “greentacks were better than gold,”
pnd that “it was impossible for greonbacks
“todepreciate, because the whole property
“of the copntry was pledged for thoir
“redemption.” The Republican press

Epeech of Gov. Seymour at
Milwaukee, Sept. I, 1804.
Governor Seymour said: I fear that my
Droken voice will not allow me to eddress you
asd would wish. Ihave come from an 83-
scmblage the most remarkable that ever met
jn this country of ours—an assemblage
which was marked not alone by i(8 enthust-
gem and the vastness of its numbers, but also
by iia patriotic deaire to resiore peace to our
Giatrscted country, and to preserve its liberty
‘sndits union. Tia in the spirit of that con-
vention that I would address afew words to
* you. 1 know that Jam snimated by no sel-

timo after the public mind was aroused
by the attack on Fort Sumter. J had
hicped thet e spirit of compromise and
omociliation might prevent the shedding of
Piood. Failing in the East to secara the
adoption of measnres to this end, I turned
my face to the West. I addressed myself
not only to those of my own political faith,
bat also to those who differed from me, I
hoped that the great West would take a
porition that would stop the flow of blood,

4he enactment of measures for the preserva-
tion of peace, Three years has paszed away
gince I then stood near this spot, Then,
seventy-five thousand men had been called
for by the federal government. It was be-
lieved to be an extravagant call, I looked
upon it otherwise. I feared thatwe did not
appreciate the magnitade of the contest.
Men of all parties, actnated by aspirit of
patriotism, responded to the demand, It was
romised that peace should be restored in

millions of men have been called for sinco
that time to bear aras in the struggle. Tive
hhuxdred thousand more are to-day bein;
called for, The nation is crushed down with
azation,and the war not ended. A point
of timo has ertiyed shon it is the constitu-
tional duty, as well 23 the constitutional
right, of every American oStizen to inqaire

denounce it because I’ believe if has entored

Turning from the consideration of the mili-

at Chicago was that in obadience to the be-
heats of the administration be had gone tod

atore prosperity and peace to the people. For
eighty years the government waa saminis-

preceed of every land, Our Republican
iriends at Chicago four yeara ego did not
esx to instigate this national strife. They
did not want civil war. God forbid that I
should charge them with that intention.
But their views tended to strife, and
such wax the consequence, as we
then believed. We nad reali — that
meddling leads to strife, ani we
believed tno safest policy was to

told us that great armies would bring ruin
with them, end bring a hoard of tax gather
ers in their train. More arbitrary govern-
ment may possibly sometimes be a blessing,
but there never was a tax gatherer who wag-
a blessing enywhere. Our fathera told us
that with a national debt would come a vast
aitay of office-holdese, and we behold them
already present now. There is snother
principle egainst which our fathers warned
us, and I fear it is the rock upon which we
have split. You besin to have a centrali-
zstion of power, Where is that toend?,The
framers of the Constitution understood the
principle that the people in the several locali-
ties knew what they needed beat, So we made
a government of states with state rights. |

seid: Lotus be generous. We said: Take
care that Rhode Island bas an equal power,
as astate with ourselves, and like ourelyos,
control its‘own local affairs, that there may.
be no jar in tho political system, Now what?
We are told thet we musi have more power
inthe federal government. Tho end of that
jis lesa power. That might bo shown io a
few words, Place more power in the federal
government, and a few states may tule over
all the others. Taxation would become une-
quel, and be made to fall heavily upon per-
tictler branches of industry, The ineqaali-
ty which exists as to the states becoming
centralized, and the power of the federal gov-
ernment will be unequally exercised, When
mon feel that the tribunal by which
they aro governed. is not — equally
constituted, there is danger ofperpetual war,
‘We of New-York wish to live on terms of
peace with you of the West. But to do that
we must not be permitted to exercise an un-
just power over you through the federal |
government, To preserve peacs Fe must nob
ba permitted to intermeddle with your local
affaiis, ard you muet not be permitted to
“meddle with ours, The ressrvation of
to the slate tends, therelore, to the peace and
security of each and sll. To give more
power to the federal goverament renders it
not sironger but w making the
general governmen* stronger by a ocentralt-
zation of power is illustrated by the featof the
barrel which attempted to become a hogs
head by bursting the hoops, whe it becume
nota hogahend, bute bundle of staves If
the dsy ever comss when tbe general govern’
mevt shall exerciss more power, it
it will destroy itself. It is this idea
of centralization—this idea that the
fedezal government should exercise the
powers reserved by the Constitution to the
stetes, end the attawpt to do go—that is
causing sirlfe alloverour land. J implore
yon, therefore, totura again to the wisdom
of your forefathers, ‘Turn again towerd

the eighty prosperous years of the past. I
am confident, from a careful study of the
tucory of our government, that, if this doc-
trine of centralization prevails, our govera-
ment must be destroyed, and—destroyed for-
ever! Read again the Declaration of Indo-

you refused obedience to the federal govern-
ment here in Wisconsin. When youdid not
