SO far as the absence of all design to be
otherwise was concerned, as THURLow
WEED or HORACE GREELEY could desire
it to be?
And yet we are told that this DEM
ocratic party is the National, Southern
Rights party Shame on such miserable
quacks Let us turn away from the con
sideration of these false issues which hey
have forced upon the people, and look at
the real issue, and seek to be imbued with
the proper spirit for doing our duty in the
premises.
The real issue is, whether party, sec
tlonal IN its aims, purposes and designs,
embracing within itself every disorgani-
zing element, shall triumph over the cause
not, at this late day, urge the claims which
our party possesses to the respect and con-
fidence of all good and true men, upon
the comparatively few to whom our words
go. They, as intelligent men, know the
nature of the issue which is presented to
them, and we can only adjure them to be
true and steadfast to the principles they
have espoused, and manifest their devo-
ton to the cause of the Union by voting,

perpetuity of our Z MON is weighed against
the fear of its overthrow, are evenly pois-

their country, demands that they should
throw the vast weight of their influence
into that side wherein rests the hope

Let us resolve, in the name of the
memory Of our deathless sires, to achieve
a bloodless but glorious triumph over the
hosts Of error and wrong Let us renew
our covenant with that proud faith which

strength, and withdrawing our minds from
the influence of the sordid considerations
which impal the place hunter aud the
spokesman to sacrifice all to the success OF
a day, let US commune with the lofty spir-

the warfare which their true sons wage
with the hereditary foes of truth and right,
and from the fountains Of patriotism, to
which their words point and wherein they
were baptized, let US seek political regen-

duties which we owe 10 our nat;-e land
to those whom We hold dear, and to oui

Let US forget there is either North or
South, East or West, and remembering
