A Democratic Meeting Perhaps.


merican Democratic Party, propose to hold
meeting at Fayette next Monday. We
believe this is the third trial, and we doubt
not, will be successful. Ieis a long time
since the ''partY managers" were ready for
this meeting, and Of course, their reso.u-
tons are now stale--spoilt by keeping, and
as there will have TO be new set cooked,
we ask "put in," as follows, which can
be referred to the committee, with this ad-
vantage: they are in print and can be read by
any of them, which probably will not be the
case with others submitted -

the democracy on the one side and the blacl,

SO efFectually hoored the "bloody Know
Notlings" that they got nary office! (sen'
sation among aspirants.
A. That Hon, WIN. A. R1cHAnDsoS, OIL
! Illinois, is man after our own hearts, and
an evidence his nationality Is found in the
the fact that he was WiImot Provisois
in 1850, and in 1856 he aint! And thi,
goes TO prove his honesty, as well as ours
for we "used 10 was" i-provisoists, ant
