EATON November loI loOU.
Mr.. MoUDY In your paper of
last week | find All article in which
you state "It is rumored about the
court house, that B. H. Alexander
has fallen from grace" and ask me
to explain. From the language
used / infer that l am represented
as voting for Lincoln ana.&bqNdon-
ing Judge Douglas. If I am cor
rect in my inference as to the mean
ing of your article, l pronounce it
untrue, l was among the few who
stood up in support of Mr.. Douglas
when he was resisting the efforts of
the Administration to force Kansas
into the Union with a Constitution
which had never been submitted
to her people for their approval or
diSapproval. l have always admired
the manly firmness exhibited by
him in advocating the rights ofthe
citizens of a Territory, to be left
perfectly free, to make their own
laws and mould their own institu-
tons, as a majority of her citizens
may determin. am proud Of the
privilege to cast my vote, for a
statesman, of so much intelligence
and patriotism, for the high office
of chief magistrate of the United
States, with full confidence that if
elected to that distinguished posi-.
ton he would administer the gov.
ernment, so as to advance the wei,
fare Of the whole Union, instead Of
a part Of it. B. II. ALEXANDER.

DR.. c. W. RoBAcK,-Dear Sir For the
benefit of suffering humanity, permit US to
announce, through the columns of your circu-
lar, the surprising properties of your scandi-
naVian blood purifier and blood pills, which
is sure cure for Indigestion and Liver Com
plant. We have several persons in town
who have been suffering with liver Complaint
and Indigestion, and Notwithstanding that
we have as good physicians as can be found
in Northern Ohio, yet the disease bafled
their skill. Consequently we were in a state
of dependency, until we commenced using
your Pills, through and by the adSice Of our
friend, Mr.. Brennan. We used the medicine
according to directions, and are now full Of
life and hilarity, aud our gratitude is equal
to our improvement in health and spirits
When We take into consideration what we
have been, and what we are at present, We
feel like charging ourselves of the sin Of in
gratitude, if We did not try 10 announce to
the public the great benefits of your medi-
cine. Therefore we recommend to the Pub
lie at large, the expediency of having re,
course to your Medicine, and consequently
as in duty bound, discharge what we feel to
be our duty, in advising persons who are
suffering as we have suffered, to make use
Of tie only true and sure cure for the dis.
eases already mentioned.

The Results Of the Republican poiicy

The Results Of the Republican Policy.
We make the following extract
from the Richmond (Va.) Dis
patceh:
FREE NEaRoEs.--It Is estimated
that at least fifty thousand free ne
groes, now in South Carolina, Vir-
ginia and North Carolina, will be
sent North within a short time
Other Southern States, it is thought,
will pursue the same policy"
Those negroes will either become
paupers or criminals of the North,
and have to be supported at the
public expense, or they will enter
into competition with the free
white laborers of the North. Eli
ther view of the matter is not a
~consummation to be desired by the
laboring men of the free States
They would not like to have a ne
gro work side by side with them in
the North.

Amalgamation.

An exchange appropriately re-
marks: Who is it that mixes white
and black blood? Pious Abolition
lists whine and tell that it is the
Southern Democracy, Look at
the census Of 1850, and you will
find that in Republican Abolition
Massachusetts, the mulattoes in
proportion to the blacks are "a per
cent. and in South Carolina, q
per cent. /; and the same proportion
through all other States. Mixing,
indeed! 1t is natural with these
Republicans who are educated in
the same schools with negroes to
mix with their equals. 1t is abhor.
ent to q Democrat.

Principles and Truth Never Die.

Principles, like truth, live forev-
err. They may be prcvented-may
even be defeated for a time, but
never destroyed. Fanatacism, false
hood and corruption sometimes tri-
ump over justice and truth in the
great conflicts of life and of
parties. Temporary excitements
raised ON false issues, may lead
thousands Of men astray, but when
the sober second thought returns,
reason and judgement bring them
back to the support of truth and
justice. Parties will live or die as
they represent and maintain great
living principles, and not by pres
ent or temporary victories or defeat.
AntagoniSms between parties like
those between truth and talsehood,
justice and injustice, will sometimes
exalt the false, the unjust and even
the corrupt, to temporary victory.
The old Democratic party has
met with some reverses in its histo-
ry-error and delusion have on scy.
eral occasions clouded the public
mind for a time-but Oh every such
occasion heretofore, the discrimina-
ting mind of the nation soon colm-
pretended the fatal mistake, and

An Unfortunate Year.

The year 1860 has indeed been
an unfortunate one. 1t was usher
ed in by a startling calamity, and
the catalogue of disaster and hor-
rors has not diminished in interest
up to the present. Accidents,
murders, pestilencc, wars, famine,
shipwrecks and earthquakes have
been common since the year came
in. Great men have died and pass
ed from the earth in rapid success
sion, that we have almost ceased
to wonder. If the statistics of this
horrible year were published, what
a dark catalogue would be set be-
fore us.

life and vigor. :,
The National Democratic party.
has been overpowered and defeated
in the late election By q combina
ton Of the most incompatible and
heterogeneous elements that ever
united togethcr-such clements as
held together by the cohesive pow
er ofpublic plumber. This corrupt
union of all disunion elements has
been excited into the most vigorous
action by the hope ola certain VIC
tory from the trcachcry and divis-
ions in the Democratic party. They
have triumphed without any COM
mon principles of patriotism or 10y
atty to the common government,
without justice or even common
honesty among their leaders. The
Democracy have been defeated not
by the power and justice Of the
cause of their enemies, but from
divisions in their own ranks and
the most base descrtion on the part
of men honored with high and re-
sponsible places by the party
Buchanan and his satilitcs, with all
the vast patronage and power Of
the government in their hands,
joined with the Black Republicans,
not for triumph Of their own, but
to render certain the defeat of the
National Democratic party which
adhered to its principles, and the
man of its principles-Stephcn A.
Douglas. The deed is donc-it has
been done before-it was done by
Van Buren, in 1S49-it was done by
similar co%rruptions in the defeat of
Jackson in 1924. Yet, in spite of
all combinations, amid all corrup-
tons, traitors and fanaticism, DEM
%ocratic principles still live, as bright
and pure as in the days of the i'm
mortal jefferson, the father and
founder of the party. They never
have been, and never will be, crush
ed out. Traitors may desert, pre-
tended friends may falter in the
hour of trial, but the principles of
Democracy will withstand the
storm, and at no distant day will
rise again like a phoenix from the
{ ashes, to q higher and more COM
pletc and permanent victory than
any yet achieved.
+ The genuine National Democra.
cy occupy a pround position. They
have nearly one million and a hal
of voters true to the great princi.
:, pies which proclaim the cqua.
rights of the States, and of the
. people to govern themselves. They
: have only to stand firm, defending
e their men, and a glorious future
will be theirs.
