The Cecil Democrat last week deyotes

The Cecil Democrat last week devotes
its leader to the subject Of 1.-The Wing and
the Maine Election" in which, referring to
an article of ours of the previous week, it
says this paper "grows jubilant over the re-
suit of the Maine Election;" that it "gloats
over the result" that it "glories in the result"
&c. 1t would be answer enough to the Dem
ocrat for us to say that it bellies and falsifes
what we said with an eftrontery at which a
reader should marvel. 1t is not true that we
"gloat," or "glory" or "grow jubilant" in
the article in question. Those are all fabri-
cations of The Democrat, as any reader will
see. to allow it to raise another of its peculiar
whines. We tell it now, as we told it then,
that other elections to come off, may possibly
try its temper even worse than that in Maine.
And as the subject is up we will say more
in regard to it. We assert, and we defy the
Democrat to contradict it successfully; that
its party is alone responsible for the result
in Maine; that its party alone is responsible
for the Republican movement that nominated
Fremont: that its party alone is responsible
for the agitation which is now shaking all this
broad land; that it alone is responsible for
the disgraceful riots and war and bloodshed
in Kansas. 1t laid its rufiian hands on the
great compromise Of Clay and Webster and
Cass and Fillmore which in its platform of
1852, it pledged itself to maintain invioate;
it destroyed that measure of Peace, and be-
hold the result. 1t was the work of its party
that raised the excitement in the North, which
has caused its defeat in Iowa and Maine, and
w S,.. will cause its defeat in every Northern
- the storm and when it is
will not join it in its lamentations. Let il
rather be assured that we will laugh AZ its

CTJohn Van Bnlen stood openly upon
the Buffalo abolition platform in 1913, aid he
now proclaims in his speeches, that IN stand
ing upon the Democratic Cincinnati platform,
he has not Swcrvcd hairs breadth from the

ton, the Buchanan men raise their loudcst

pERSONAL.-The Democrat of last week pub
fishes un article signed ''One Who Knows" re-
fcrring to something we had said abou. hangers
on Of that party-"mcn notorious for not paying
their honest debts who had been Dragging and
blowing about betting from 500 to $500 on
| Buchanan. This writer says he bets his own
money and pays his own debts; very well-then
we didn't refer to him. His denial regarding him
self does not affect the proposition Then he goes
on to say
'Of one thing I am assured that men who
neglect to pay their honest debts should not bcrate
others for what they are guilty themselves. Il
might tail unfold, that TAIL is his own orthog-
raphy, but desist until something more is said on
the subject Of betting "
And that scoundrelly insinuation at our private
| credit is published in The CECIL DEMOCRAT. II
this is to be the mode of warfare we have no rca-
son to fear it. We hold The Democrat responsible
for the article and although the writer says his
name is with the editor, We have no more an xiety
to know it than to know the name of a dog in the
street If tho Democrats correspondent could
unfold TAi.,' it would be the TAIL of sncaking
filthy snake who lies MS fatty and as bascly in his
lnsinuaiiOn as he lies in his slime. If we owe any
man money let him call on us without an hour $
delay. fanny man has right to complain of us
for not paying him, let him stand forth and do SO.
As for ourself We plead for no leniency; STILL it
may be the misfortune OF any man not to be able
to pay up to time; it is, therefore, only in view of
the sneakiLg insinuation at our business credit,
permitted in the last Democrat that we say to its
publisher that we have never been sued by the
mechanic or the butcher and that, probably, he
had as well look to his own standing with those
who labor for what they get before he permits
attacks Of this character in-his journal

THE EXHIBITION AT oLIvET

Thursday last, we joined company with good.
| " number from town, Unattended the Exhibition
! by the pupils Of Rev. Mr.. BAILEY's school, at
O.ivet Church. Qnitc = large auditory Of ladies
and gentlemen, from far and near were present
and throughout the days exercises gave to the
young ':actors" the compliment of a marked and
respectful attention.
We regret that We did not arrive in time to get a
full benefit, but we were nevertheless amply re-
paid for our investment. We shall not tell an
those for which we have sometimes paid in tickets.
! Several of the performances, however, were deci-
dedly good, anl all-thc entire days woik--an
swerci its purposes well-alFordel 10 the young
men 4 valuable opportunity for improvement,
aad gave to the auditory an entertainment
which was enjoyed heartily and enthusiastically.
| Our friend VINCE vas there, performing the part
of the fancy cut individual whose business it is to
make fool Of himself, and, just rs he would do
on 'thc block" sohl th: crowd atthc highest pos
s;blc price. Our old neighbors the ''Slndy Riscr
Band were also on the ground, and went through
as usual the musical part Of the programme.
! During m interval, the company were escorted
to heavily. laden picnic table, which for quality
and quantity did real credit to the hospitality and
! the good taste and skill OF the OIivct ladies. We
! have never seen table in the woods set more
sumptuously and handsomely and We have ccr
anly never attended a picnic more admirably
managed. Itis too often the case that men feel
themselves at liberty on such occasions to display
their rudencss and .hreeding, and play the black
guard generally But thanks to the good manage
ment Of tie Committee. or perhaps we should
say, thanks To the proper breeding Of a resnecta-
! bic community, we saw no such rudencSs at Oil
vet every body behaved handsomely, all were
bountifully supplied and oil went away satisfied
| The entertainment WAS closed at 4 late hour in
the evening, with the presentation of Bible to
Mr.. BAILEY by the pupils-a token of their regard
for, and appreciation Of lis qualities anda
teacher. The Young gentleman who represented
his fcllow-stulents-we did not ascertain his
name-madc quite neat little speech, and was
responded to in the terms which such n marked
compliment fully deserved.
We like these Exhibitions" possible evil
can result from them and there is ce! tainly much
Of good to be obtained where, as at Olivet sober,
respectable and intelligent company of men and
women meet in social converse, and occupy, now
aud then, a day in n pleasant round Of con-
! viviality and genuine enjoyment. We are glad to
notice that they are becoming common with us
nowadays. Let Us have more of them. 1t is
worth a twenty-rnilc ride, any day, to be one in
! the midst of such crowd.
