Democrats and Ruow Nothings
nru..IH Emitting!
DEMOCRATIC TESTIMONY!
JOHN [, GREEN ON The STARD!


Last week we published the lie ter of Wayne
Griswold, member of the Boar! Of Public
Works, proving that the democrats we're pay
iog the Fillmore men for keeping up the Know
Nothing organic l,ion, and now We propose 10
present a few additional facts, going to show
that there is sympathy existing between the
two parties, even outside Of their platforms.
x-Govenor Floyd, of Va, one of the
Bu,hsnlu electors at large from that state,
has been visiting New York, md he it was
whom tho democrats selected from the host
OF democratic stumpers to respond to the
apsech of Nc Banks in Nav York City In
the course of his speech, Floyd IN de the fol-
loving significant remark ......
"Ifnd from n soiourn Of one wecl in New York
that the enemy of democracy ia not the American par
THE DEMOCRACY AND THE AMERICAN
PARTY" ...
There you have it, in short metre. Floyd
has learned an important secret ii New York,
and he now boldly declares his Willingness to
cast his vote, Nc an clector from the state Of
Vnuiuia, for hill"rd Fillmore. Aud why 10
he willing TO do tlia j.? Can any man give a
reason or the shadow of n reason uulcss i. IL
that Biohanau and Fillmore are equally re-
able tools f,r the South =?
We have still farther proof upon this point
Hon. J1hn L, Green, representative in the
Ohio Legislature f:o.n S.aIasky county. sta
ted as positive f,ct few evenings sin"e. ia
the drag store Of Peck g. II'mil:on. in The
presence Of several persons, that THE DEM
OCRATS IN new YORK WILL CAST
THEIR VOTES FOR FILLMORE, and
thus wrest the State from the Republicans.--
Thia statement was publicly made By Mr..
Green. otherwise We should not take ths lib
cIty to introduce it int) our co.umn7. H. is
undoubtedly informed, aud did not speak at
random. 1t is lhcir only hops, aud unless
they ran defeat Fremont in New York, his
election Is beyoal d,ubt.
Nov. You men who have had so much to
say about the dark lantern party, how do you
like your company? How do the adopted
citizens of Wood county like their ballot box
associates? How would our German friends
like to vote for Fillmore How do you like
to vote for men who are paying Fillmore's
friends for stumping the Safe an l Presehing
from every stump the AMIR 'puhlic IN doc
tr.ae that q mans religious opinions shall tc,t
his iitne5s to hold oliee, and his p'nca Of birth
decide his right 10 vo.e? The electors N
tn, demo3rao ticket in Ono stand pl,i-;, d,
if elected, to cast lhtlt votes for Fillmore rs
their second choice. Look out, voters, les:
You find yourselves sold by those whom you
supposed to be yom friends, 70. tits no" con-
iilen,iy clsimrd that large mai ori.y of the
Fillmore men in OHIO intend to vote for BI
,ianan So ia New York the democrats vote
f,r Fillmore, and in Ohio the Know No;hn.s
vote for Buchanan. Was no! Fi,yS ri 5ht
wien lie said there are bonds OF Union be-
tween the democracy aud the American par
ly 80
How IS ii here a, home? d. you not dai-
lv near the chiefs 10 the Know Nothing camp
publicly d4cIasiuL thsir purpose 10 support
IN. 4 mocra,c Presidential ticket? Ia there
not clearly a bargain existing b'tween the
Democrats and Know Nothings, by which
they are to unite upon one or the other Of
their candidates in those states where there
is prospect that such union may defeat
,he R,publicans?
A ain We say, beware, honcsl democrats
Of Wood county, les. you become party to
g.. wicked transactions Of unscrupuiou5 par
ty t4casers.
