The true Democrat., 1856-08-26
From Indencndpnce Co.


 In the Independent Balance of the Sth inst. a writer over the signature of non," :" in abus- ing the democratic party, utters more falsehoods than Is often crowded in the same space. Ii seems that some boys, no doubt with the view of innocent amusement, had hung piece o black crape at his gate, for which he denounces the whole democratic party for everything that is base and vile. He says, he mou,ns, because the best set of officers that ever this county had, has been turned out, and the worst set put n. Now, does this interruptions scrbbler be leve this? Does he not know that he utters a fasehood and islander when he says this? Is Union opposed to the will of the people being carried out? If not why does he thus slan- der the respectable gentlemen whom the peo- pie have endorsed and elected in this county? Or, is he practcing the principles of Know Nottingham in hiding in the dark and stabbing whoever may refuse to submit to his oaths and obligations, regardless of merit? ~ do 'n0urn' is repeated by Union again and again. because of falsehoods he utters against the democratic party Let him mourn, it is appro- prlate for him to do so-his sallow face shows that there Is " a worm at the bud" with him. If the guilt of hypocrisy and slander-of op- position to republicanism and the will of the people, will make you thus mourn-you will mourn on to the end of your days, Mr. Union There Is not one manly--one humaen, or patri- otic impulse in you. Where freemen live. YOU ! will tO
 love in you. The world is wilderness to you. and naught but gloom and mourning surrounds you. You deserve no friends-you will die unwept unhonored and unsung, and "wailing and gnashing of teeth, will be your bitter DOT tion.''
 Let Union not fret about the democratic par ty. It IS composed of the honest freemen of this great Republic-and its glorious banner will float triumphant, hereafter as heretofore to the terror and dismay of such mourning hy pocrites and gloomy federalsts as he is. Union mourns because freemen reioice-he mourns because democracy is triumphant, and the bal lot box, and the right of suffrage, and the iber- ty of Conscience in religious matters, are secur- ed. Mourn on thou gloomy outcast-for no light or joy can ever reach thee!
 How daro Union write as he does, Is be not one of those who have hid about in cellars and garrets, to prevent freemen from seeing ms acts! Is he not sworn to vote as others may direct him, or not at all? Is he not sworn to violate the constitution of his country, by making religious test for office? Has he not sworn not to tell the truth--(ofhi0 being a mem. Der of the order)-and has he not now periured himself by violating his oath and owning his membership? W Tho was authorized to absolve him from his oath? Was it the Pope, or was it MT. -? How dare, repeat, such a creature talk about the worthy gentlemen who have been elected to public office in our county by freemen? Is he not the sworn slave of oth- CTS? How does he know then that he will be sold to the Pope? Let Union hide himself if | he can,,irom the gaze of freemen-Cain like, | he deserves and will receive, nothing but con- | tempt from the honest and good.
