The true Democrat., 1856-09-02

directed by him, we should have repose. The announcement of his success, in my judgment would dispel the clouds that hover over our re. latons with foreign countries, and restore that sense of security which is so essential to a com. mercial people, while at the same time it would with equal certainty calm down the angry waves of internal strife which now threaten to devastate the land. I may be disappointed in these anticipations, but in MT. Buchanan there is assuredly hope of safety. Elsewhere I see only continued agitations, violence and final ShipWreck.
 Yours, very truly,

 0~F The Know Nothngs hereabouts went into mysteries about two weeks since over pa- ragraph in the huthfM Eagle and Enquirer and copied into the equally h'AhtM Gazette, that the democrats of Ohio had abandoned tbe presidential contest. We knew at the time that it was absurd fiction, but the poor fellows so seldom have an item to cheer their mourn- ing spirits, that in sheer pity, we did not at the time nail the lie to the counter. The de- mocracy of Ohio not only have full electoral ticket but are making most gallant fight and are sanguine of success
 There, as in all the free States, there are really but two parties in the contest--the de- mocratic and black republican, Mr. Fillmore is only nominally running merely to keen his hand n
 We find the following in the Ohio Statesman of the 18th Aug:
 Ohio Gone.
 The democratic party of Ohio have given up the contest in despair. They have Knocked under-caved in--sQrrendered at discretion, Their State central committee met at Columbus on the l1th ult and after taking deliberate survey ol the field they laid down their arms, With the determination to let the battle go bv default. They adopted resolutions aJat.donjnq the feI 80 fnr 0s he Presidency IS c0nceyuedl- An entfe State lost to the democracy with out the tainte>t strugg gle--Without the merest show of a tsht.-Menl2his Enquirer
 We find the above in rabid Know Nothing paper printed at Memphis Tennessee. We presume the editor got his idea from lying let ters sent from this city to the Cincinnati Con- merclAl and N. Y. Tribune. The writer of these letters, 1t Is true, did not state the above III 50 many words, but so arranged his false- hoods as to give those as false to truth as him sell the opportunity to tell the lie out right l here seems to he quite q competition between the proslavery Know Nothings of the south and the black republican Know Nothings of the north, winch shall Surpass the other in fall sllNlhg the democratic party, and they catch up each others lies with an ea9eness that shows a brothcrIy understanding of the most affection ate klnd, and all laborlng to the same end, the establishment of two governments, one north the other south. They have divided churches they have broken up the old whig party. and now they labor, with perfect understanding. tp destroy the democratic party and its nation al organization, as the only and last barrier to their reasonable purposcs-the establishment ot government north and a government south. They will have a good time of it be fore they succeed in such a foul and daring project.
 IL jS true, they have succeeded in dividing the Christian churches into north and south, and IL IS true that large majority of the preach- CTS who have brought about these divisions are now ardentIy enlisted in carrying out the trea- sonabIe design Of the politicians of their party tath. ln fact 1t Is this church division into north and south, that is used as the greatest and most terrible lever to heat up fanatcism and sectional prejudices by which the dissolution of the Union of these Suites Is to De accom- pllshed So open and public has this church interference with the politics of the country become that the Sabbath day is used by the political priests as a day of pulpit-electionee ing instead of the saving of souls, so that many, very many of the most devoted mem- bero of the churches are coming to the con cInslon that all piety and heart religion have left their places of worship.
 But we are running off from our text To show how well these traitors p1llYout Me1, gq,,e we take the following also from the same pa. per as the above, which so molcstlv assures the people south that the democrats of Ohio have given up the contest Here it is, and it is worthy of remark that paper which draws Its food from the northern Fremont papers to attack the southern democracy, should thus keep It's southern readers prepared, in the event ot the election of Fremont, to at once set up the howl of dissolution. Here it is:
 "JUDAs AND FREMoNT.-The black repub llcan papers are busy in quoting compliments paid Fremont by such men as Crittenden and CaSs. There Is no reason to doubt that Judas was we'll thought of by the Apostles until he sold himself and betrayed Christ Judas is believed to have had a hang-dog look. and every one who has seen Fremont knows he has the combined look of forty egg gg-sucking, kitch- en-robbing CUTS. The election of such man to the Presidency would set all the pirates and land robbers in the United States in motion, and all the dogs to yeping and leapng from their kennels"
 When 1t is known that the papers south that speak ot Fremont, after this manner are edited by the very men who are in league with the Fremont men north, throwing back and forth. their connection of lies, in regard to the demo- cratic party and their candidates, and using the same.means of sectional intens1fcation to accom- plish their revolutionary purposes-yes, men who use the above language south, in regard to Fremont are actually laboring arm in arm, hand ill hand, with his friends here, for the election of this JUDAS lsCARIoT, with a {" harg dog look" to the Presidency, as the man suitable to ac- complish their purposes of selling their country for not exactly "thrtv pieces of slver,r but Ma'7a-posa god' Gold being now the coin of the Judases.
 It must not be forgotten that at the first at. tempt to hold a national Know Nothing con- ventlon at Philadelphia, in 1855, when the subject of slavery became subject of division, that it was reported in the New York Herald, now performing its part of that arrangement, that its secret councils resolved to go home and run Ill the north, the anti slavery agitation and
