B8sors Union and AmsrSoaa:
GENTLEMEN: l have no disposition whstever, as
some may suppose, to gain notoriety by writing
communications for public journals and l am ac'
tuated by different motives feel in common with
many Others, great socitude for the success Of the
Democratic party in August next, and I have
therefore concluded to make through the medium
Of your paper, a few suggestions relative to the
absolute necessity Of making preparations for that
political contest my political faith consists in the
honest conviction that upon the success of Demo-
ratio principles, the present and future prosperity
nd happiness Of the citizens Of this great cOnfed-
e-scy mainly dspenjs.
l. is rue tina. l am not in the habit of reading
nor writing much, and The information have de-
rived from that source is truly very limited, but
nave seen and heard enough to convince nae of the
ruth OF the assertion, aud honesty believe that
f the American people will continue to vote for
he principles and policy, heretofore advocated BY
hat party commonly called know nothiDgs slavery
gIl soon be abolished, q dissolution Of tae Union
will follow as a natural consequence, sEd moral,
religious aud political curse vii be the hual destiny
If the American people whenever. that party shall
nave gained lhs sscendeney, and n order TO svert
ais great Calamity, and to preserve and Parpetu
sge this greatest Of all Unions, the Democratic
party upon whose shoulders the pillars OF this Re
public doubtless rest, must and trust to God viii,
,s they have stsIy been, triumphant in all time e
come; but 10 secure and make permanent the sue
less Of our loag cherished principles, t.ere must
oe 3 uDanimiay of action, and a similarity of feel
grg and sentiment among the members Of that par
,: IN g word we must be fully and completely Or
-aaz3d, 50 that one single blast of the Democratic
7uge viii suffice to rally her votes from Carter to
eby; without this co-Operstion in feeling, sent-
ment and action, We may never expect to combat
-uccessfuly sgaiust the midnight operations snd
secret movements of that party who are daily and
hourly singing the syren song that Americans shall
rule Amsricz.
All, thai beautiful song, tbst noble and generous
sentiment fell 80 pleasantly upon the ears Of the
innocent, though,eas and unsuspecting, that they
were persuaded in an evil hour ike Our erFing
mother Eve, to est Of the forbidden fruit, to enter
Sans dark councils, and thus wander without the
pale Of that political garden of Paradise, in which
We had ell lived AID loved each other for more than
eighty years. bu. Ike the prOdiga SOD, all VINO
