The MODERN .DEMoCRACY-FrsIoN AND
CONFrsloS The PRESENT STATE OF PAE-
TIES, &c.--ThC course aud doctrines Of the
WGshmoton Union, the Baltimore .4rcrs, The
Pennsyirutia", and such other P,fcM Dtmo-
cratic Journals rs are fed by government adj
vertising and led on by hopes of additional
remuneration Of that sort, reaching out, also.
to include -sundry country papers such as
The Democrat of this County, are entitled at
this time to passing notice.
Notwithstanding they so far adopted the
Virginia Resolutions of '9s as TO secure the
= o'ts of the States Rights men for Mr..
Pcrcc-as well the Secedcrs of the South rs
the Abollionis,s Of the Nor,h-sctting up
those Resolutions against the Constitution
we fad them Boosting that their party is
planted on the Constitution" And al
though we find that because of their dcpar-
ture from the principles of the Jackson Dem o.
cracy, hundreds of old jackson Democrats
are leaving them all over the country, inclu-
ding the Hon. Andrew jackson Donaldson,
the adopted son Of the old general and the
present light Of the Hermitage; Col, Polk.
The brother Of tic late President; Howell
Cobb, and many Of their great mon, who arc
above bidding for Office Or for advertisements
we still find them loute in their vocfcra-
tions that they are the Democratic Party
which cannot abandon its organization.
But the chicftans of the Old Democratic
Party denounce the present times serving
Administration ard its satellites ard hir, lirgs
as having abandoned the true faith and gone
over to the embrace of the scccders, North
and South, who agree on the one point--,hc
want of binding force ofthe Laws passed by
Congress in States where they are distastcful
to the people They charge the present false
Democracy with being the disunion Party;
and about the fact thclc is no question. II is
false to the Constitution at the same time
that it boasts of standing on tit is the
enemy ofthe pcrpetuity of the Union at the
ut the same time that it boasts of being its
firmcst friend. Finding the game worked
so well in Piercc's election, it still essays to
hold together the factions of the North and
South OH its States Rights platform for the
selfish purpose of retaining power in its own
hands and filling tho purses of its minions
with the country's gold, intending to leave
it to 60 to destruction rit likes, when the
unhallowed purposes Of those who control it
arc accomplished.
And to this end we find them holding out
their hypocritical hands to the Wings, using
language such as this;-"Thc old Wing
party is broken up beyond all peradvcnture;
the old issues arc mainly settled; We
invite liberal. minded Wings to come to u.s.
where else can they 60? their only natural
position is with the Democrats much
more of that sort Of stuff. But let them
know that their designs are all uncovered to
the sun, and those liberal minded wings arc
not to be gullel BY any such false assump-
tons. If the Wig PARTY docs not rally its
scattered forces. let this patent disunon
Democracy know, that the old Wing party
and the old Jackson men will unite in one
great Union party which will level to the
earth the selfish and dangerous party that
now holds the Government and which having
welded itself to the original principles of
Scccssien-in the North and in the South as
well as to the foreign and paral political in
iincnccs in the land, is now cnlcavoring to
bolster its strength additionally by calling
Wings to its reasonable fold.
Awhile it cried "Fuion." but ftarinp
some of the weak wings who should come
over TO it might want cflicei now cries '.No
Fusion. "-that might tend to co,fllsion-come
over to us gentlemen, body and brooches, VIC
will take care of the Offices as heretofore.
But they don't 60 over. The Pierce Disun-
ion, States Rights Party, will have its just
deserts. The people have dsccrnment and
patriotism. A great Union Party will be in
the field-;f there is no Wing party,-com-
bning the better clements of the old Wing
and Jackson parties and putting to route and
to shame the vampires who, under the abused
title of "Dcmoeraey," are cndcnvoring to
bleed still more n patient and suffering land.
Young men Of the country! look about
you. Be not deceived by cant or by names,
there is Union STILL thank God and tho
jackson is gone, aud Clay is gone, and
Webster is gone, it still must be prcsesued.
How the eye of Old lIickory-who in his day
scared secession to denth--would flash with
indignation at the imbecc course of the pres.
ent false democratic Administration which
hears the thrcatsninge and bears the insults
Of Secession tainted Legislatures, setting
laws Of Congress at defiance. See you to it
young men, that the onion sentiment is
held up against the Pierce platform and
against thc'corfnorant newspapers which arc
fed by the hand of false tho dominant
faction. .e
