We present this week to the people of this
county and Summit, the name of GEORGE LILLE
as the Democratic candidate for Senator. Mr.. L.
is a resident of Summit county, and was present
ed by his delegation as the man of the Democracy
of that county. To those who are unacquainted
with him we would just say, that he is an honest,
Industrious, intelligent farmer. Unlike his oppo-
nent, Mr. UPsoN, be is no Bank Attorney, nor
Bank stoekholder, but one of the people, in favor
oftaxing the Banks as the people are taxed, and
every way qualified to enttle him to the support Of
the people of the district.

The Parity for Young Men.

considered paragraphs, gives expression to ssn-
tment the operation of which is becoming every
day more evident and marked in our country. -
"The fact,' says that journal "that q majority of
the young men, they begin to exercise
the freeman's prerogative fvoting, vots in favor
ofthe Democratic ticket, is but corroboratiye of
the statement above made. And why should it
not be sol Has not the Democracy always stood
up bravely for the nations honor in every time of
trial and under all circumstances They find
that the Democratic party has always been the
true friend Of the people-have ever maintained
the doctrines of '.equal rights and equal laws,s
and have always sought to defend the oppressed
against the Vaccinations ofthe strong And hence
they feel sense of honor loudly demsadiag their
support. Aye, more than all this. They can
also see how marked the ingratitude of the Whige
has been IN the treatment which two of their most
distinguished leaders (Webster and Clay) receiv-
ed. Not so with the Democratic party. Here
merit receives its due reward, and thcs who are
forced to do service in the cause are regarded
with peculiar care by the party. The present in
cumbent of the Presidential chair is comparative
y young man, as is also the executive of this
If the occasion required extended list of illus
trious names might be given to prove that the
young men of the Democratic party are regarded
with favor by the masses, and are always certain
of reaping just reward for their, services
"Let then, every young man, ere he fully de-
cides to join the Wing ranks, ponder well the
consequences of that act. If he is willing to
unite his fortunes with party without leaders or
principles party whose doctrines have been
universally rebuked by the American peoples
party whose support has consigned more public
measures to oblivion and which has robbed the
people of more noble spirits than all other parties
combined-then let him become Wing. Bur.
on the other hand, if he would avoid associations
SO destructive to the energy, spirit, and enthusi-
asm that must ever be found in the bosom of eT
