GERMANS OF CLEVELAND RE-

Tho Cleveland Leader of last wee K
contains q circular, signed by the
Germans and other naturalizcd citi-
zens of Cleveland which runs TINS:

citizens Of the city Of Cleveland g,
have heretofore cheerfully supported
tho Democratic ticket, from the fact
that we were innocent enough to
suppose the party was liberal in it's
views, and opposed to Know Moth.
ingism, but, from recent develop.
ments. we are satisfied the party on
ly wishes to use us merely as 'hew.
ers of wood and 'dra wers Of water,
treating Us kindly before election
and kicking us afterwards. We,
therefore, pledge ourselves to abstain
from voting at the coming election
for the following reasons:
let. A majority Of the officers
holding Office under our Democratic
President, are Know Notbinge.
'2d. Several individuals on oui
State ticket belong to the order.
sd. A majority OF our city Off
GERS, elected as Democrats, belong
10 tho order.
we have heretofore, by our votes
built up the Democratic parry; and
lin return for our sufrages, we have
received nothing but contumely ano
insult. We do not wish it under
stood that we leave the party, but on
| ly pledge ourselves to abstain from
our rights as citizens, until those
rights are properly respected. We
leave them, therefore, in the Ian
gunge Of Harrison to do their owl
voting and their own fighting"
These statements are true to thu
letter. So anxious 10 the Democra
cy to embody in its ranks. the Know
Nothing element that has been float
ling about, that they havo placed
these new converts in their iron
ranks, and have put many of 'hcn
in nomination for the first Offices il

stumped the State for Trimble il

The Democratic party have cease

ply this, they expect to profit MOI
by an aAiliation with the Kno'
