EDrToRs TRUE DEMOCRAT: You, in com mon with the balance of mankind, have no doubt heard great deal about the tremea- dous and unparalleled dise6etaion in Jeffer son county, against the regular nominee of the Democratic party for Governor, Col. Richard H. Johnson. These sensotion re- ports have been heralded extensively. Now suffer one who has mixed much with the Democracy, and has long been familiar with the sentiment of the rank and file of the Democracy, to assume you, in all can dor and truthfulness, that no dissatisfact ton exists uhoterer. There is some oppo- sition to Col. Johnson, am willing to avow, but it is confined to the very narroj and contracted circle of the opposfionas They who charge that the Democracy Of Jefferson county are 6 reant to party us ages and customs utter vile islander on their integrity The Democracy of this county have ever been loyal to their princi- pies, aAa will be the very last to desert their regularly appointed standard bearer. And such a standard bearer. They are not forgetful of the services of Mir. Johnson, and intend to contribute their portion to rewarding him this summer The years '55 and 6 were the most trying hours that ever lowered over the Democratic party in this State At that time when there were but few shields to receive the terrible K. " onslaught, Richard H. Johnson, like true knight of the Democratic, principles, gath cred his armor and dealt the very blows through his bold anl fearless organ. the True Democrat, which prostratcl Sam in the dust. We all remember with pleasure and gratitude, the unAagging zeal, tire less energy and consnmmate ability with which he con lncted the good fight against such fearful odds, and when weakness. dis pair and deSertion was in our own camp. The pure democracy recolert well this ser vice There aye some few now octtng with he democracy who, at that time, wore the .olors of Sam, who do not req lily forgive Mr. Johnson for his vigorous blows in be- half of democracy; still to keep show of
