A Speech for Ibe fugitive taw.
The following is an extract from a speech
.delivered in the Ohio Legislature by Mr.
Plant, of M"igs Co., upon "the bill granting
the use of the jails of Ohio to slave catching.
The irony of the Hon. gentleman will be
found extremely sharp as it points to the
bogus Democracy. Read it:
Me. President —I am from a very close
county, where the real political majority is
very uncertain. On this account k'desire to
mike a speech for buncombe; one that will
suit both- sides; and in order to satisfy a'l
the different interests among my constituen 8, 1
I propose to make a speech on one side and
vote on the other. The gentleman from Lo
rain (Professor Monroe) has said that he
could see no use in the passage of the bill at
this lime, when, in fact, there were many
reasons why it should pass now; one of
them, and a very important one, was that
the permanency of the Democratic parly de
■ penrien upon it, and modern Democracy, as
he understood it, was a wise arrangement to
prevent people from running around loose !
The gentleman from Lorain seemed In
think that our jails were designed to be used
only for criminals, and in all this he would
agree with him. But who are criminals?
That gentleman had, in a most eloquent
• manner, drawn an affecting picture of the fu
gitive slave mother who had escaped with
her child from Virginia. Now, he would
show that this woman'was a criminal of the
worst sort. According to the gentleman’s
own showing the woman, when she arrived
in Ohio with her child was reduced to a mere
skeleton —a skeleton in rags. She was guilty
of three great crimes. First evidently guiltv
of grand larceny in stealing her child, which
was the properly of her master; she had
also embezzled and wasted her own body,
which was no less her master’s ; and lastly,
she had committed high treason against the
-Nttinn il Government—for was it not shown
by speeches made by Democrats of this body
and by Congress, and so understood through
out the Union, that this Government was
founded on niggers ? It has been declared
treason to destroy the Government, and
would it not be an “attempt" to destroy the
Government in undermining its foundation
bv stealing away the niggers upon which it
rests 1 The common relation of pillars and
edifices proves this.
Then we are told by 'he member frem Lo
rain, that even for the soke of comity it was
degrading to catch niggers; he viewed it
dtff-rentlv. Catching niggers was not de
grading but honorable. U'hal does honora
ble mean ! 'Men are called Hon., and why ?
Unquestionably because th“y were in office ;
and it is well known lha' Democrats cannot
get office under this Government unless wil.
ling to catch niggers. Office holding made
men honorable. Then were not the means
which made office-holders, equally honora
ble? It must follow of course—ihai the
end justifies the means is a principle of Dem
ocracy.
The member from Lorain, being a prnfes
gor-of moral sciences, might ihnl account
he excused from nol understanding the ex
acler sciences ; bul is certainly nol so easily
pardoned for the error into which he had
fallen in regard to ’he natural instincts of
blood-hounds, as far ns nigger catching is
involved. Blood.hounds know nothing of
nigger-catching until trained toil—while this
vocation seems to be the natural instinct of
democrats. Dogs and Democrats were not
natarally on the same level, and hence it was
necessary to bring the latter down to the po-j
si'ion of the former, or vice versa. It was
evident that Monroe owed an apology to
somebody, either to the Dog or Democrat—
he didn’t know which.
A correspondent of ihe Wilkes-Barre Rec
ord of the Times makes the following talk
about “Union Prayer Meetings”:
“About 45 years ago the Rev. M
P , a Methodist preacher, was appointed
«lo travel on the West Branch of the Susque
hanna. The Presbyterians being in advance
of other religious denominations, had a large
Church edifice and congregation near Jersey
Shore, under the pastoral care of Rev. Mr.
G , the father of Judge G of the
U. S.'Supreme Court. The-new Methodist
preacher entered the neighborhood, and be
coming acquainted with J McM
and many other leading members of Mr.
G— Church, received from them an invi
taiion to preach from their pulpit. Mr.
P accepted the invitation. He preached
a doctrinal sermon, at the close of which, l.e
handed Mr. G , who was sealed in the
pulpit, the hymn book, with a request to
close the services. Mr. G read a hymn
and then proceeded to discuss some of the
points laid down by Mr. P .Mr G
closed his remarks, and was immediately
followed by Mr. P . On went the cm
test, which at length spread over the whole
congregation. In the rear- of the Church,
snug up in a corner, was seated a pious old
negro named Mark, whose voice had a peeu
liar nasal sound. Mark was a great shout
er, and in the midst of the dispute and up
roar which resulted in a division of the Pres
byterian Church, he shouted out at the lop
of his voice, “Bless de Lord, de Methodists
and de Presbyterians have united, and bless
i de Lord, O my soul, for dis sweet Christian
union.” Honest pious old Mark, not sus
peeling what was going on, bui thinking of
nothing himself but love and union, could
hold in no longer. Now Ido not intend to
insinuate anything against a union prayer
meeting. By no means. lam in favor of
the’ plan, and we know that it works well in
o'h&r places. Let us like good honest un*
prejudiced .Chris'ian brethren and sisters,
unite in a daily prayer meeting, hut at the
same time let us remember that Mark alias
Uncle Tom, will be there. Union.

sluggish or disordered organs into their natural action, and
impart healthy tone with strength to the whole system. Not

but also formidable and dangerous diseases that have baffled
the best of human skill. While they produce powerful effects
they arc at the same time, indiinimshed doses, the safest and
best physic than can bo employed fur children. Being sugar
coated, they are pleasant to take: and bcingpuroly vegetable
arc free from any risk of harm. Cure* have been made which

them) and were perfectly satisfied that all was right. The
day following, the burning took place, under the superintend
ence of the Committee. After a fair and impartial burning
for five hours, the Safe of Messrs Evans A Watson was first
opened, the Safe being on fire Inside, and the contents par*
tially consumed, while the contents In- the Safe of Messrs
Parrels A Herring weye in good condition, and no fire inside.

The above Safes can be inspected at3&Walnnt Street, where
the public can satisfy themselves of the great superiority of
the “Herrings Patent Champion,” over the defeated and

fires In Philadelphia/(Ranstead Place,) by taking one out of
an agent’s store, (H. A. Lentz,) made double thickness, (differ
ent from those they sell) to “burn up” one of Herring’s, (half
os thick) has met with its true reward: Herring’s Safe could
not bo burnt, proving conclusively that the only reliable
Safe now made is “Herring’s” of which over 15,000 are now
in actual use, and more than 200 Lave been tried by fire

Report of the Committee appointed to superintend
the Burning of the Iron Safes, at Reading , Feh.
27,1857. | |
“The undersigned, members of the committee, do
respectfully report, that we saw the two Safes origi
nally agreed upon by Farrelsr'&jHerring and Evans
Sc Watson, placed side by in a furnace, viz:
The Safe in use by the Paymaster of the Philadel
phia and Reading Railroad Company, in his office
at Reading, manufactured by Parrels Sc Herring,
and the safe in use by H. A. Lanlz, in his store,
manufactured by Evans Sc Watson, and pul in books
and papers precisely alike. 1 j
The fire was started at 8$ [o’clock, A. M., and
kept up until four cords of green hickory, two cords
dry oak and half chestnut top jwood were entirely
consumed, the whole under the? superintendence of
the subscribers, members of| the Committee. The
Safes were then cooked off mil) water, after which
they were opened and the books and papers taken
out by the Committee and sent to -H. A. Lanlz’s
store for public examination, after they were first
examined and marked by Committee. The
books and papers taken fromjthe Safe manufactured
by Evans Sc Watson were butislighlly affected by
the intense heat, while those taken from the Safe
manufactured by Parrels & Herring, were in our
judgment, damaged fully fifteen per cent more than
those taken from Evans Sc Watson 1 s Safe.
We believe the above to have been a fair and im
partial trial of the respective qualities of both Safes.
