FALL And WINTER
GOODS.

II ME undersigned having Just received from
4 the Eastern Cities a large aud complete
assortment OF FALL aud WINTER GOODS
would respectfully invite 10 then the attention
Of their old custoneis and The public generally.
They consist IN part Of the following named ar

selling the more goods, make the same money

TO THE DEMOCRACY
OF HARRISON COUNTY

Your Central COmmltteG deem IL
important, on tho present occasion to
address to you few words.
In a few days an important cleo
ton will transpire. The officers
that are to rule the State the next
two years-your Congressional and
Legislative Representatives, and
your county rulers, are again in the
hands of the people. Are the Dem
Gratis of Harrison prepared for the
struggle? Are they full, aware of
the important consequences which
depend upon its result?
Your committee are of tho opin-
ion that to secure a favorable ver-
dict on the Second Tuesday of Oct
ober, it is all important that the full
vote of every township be out to the
polls. TO the ef1ecting of this end, it
is suggested that the township Com
mittees, where they have been ap-
pointed, as well as ali other Demo-
Gratis, make it thoir business to sec
that every Democratic voter is atthe
Polls, and that, when there, the
FULL DEMOCRATIC TICKET be de-
posted in the ballot box.
The opponents Of Democracy,
as is their custom, on the eve Ofeve-
~ election, are boldly attempting by
the circulation ofpamphlets and 9TH
er political missiles, to lead the pub
lie mind away from the real issues
between the two parties, and centre
il upon some obsolete and unlmport-
antmoasure. Pamphlets are now in
circulation in this county, gotten up
at Columbus, by the Wing Central
Committee, containing certain state
ments in regard to the position of
the Democratic party on the ques-
ton of Banking, the great majority
Of which, are en- irely without foun-
dation, and from careful examina-
ton, of them we pronounce. them
false, and circulated entirely for
political purposes. We, therefore,
call upon the Democrats of Harrison
County to arouse in their strength,
and show by their votes, NEXT Tues
DAY that the efforts of tho enemies
Of Democratic doctrines and the up
holders of the long exploded politi-
cal heresies of Federalism, have OK
pended their time and logic to no
purpose.
REMEMBER THAT THIS
COUNTY, CAN BE CARRIED
NEXT TUESDAY IF EVERY
DEMOCRAT TURNS OUT TU
THE POLLS.
Remember that if you want to be
disgracefully beaten, you can ac-
complish your object by remaining
at home and trusting to others what
you ought to attend to yourselves
