Letter FROM a Democrnt.

The letter published below is from q
prominent Democrat Of Clyde, who always
has and still does vote with the party. If
Mr., Beams Democratic friends condemn bis
political course, it is pretty good evidence
that he is not considered a safe counsellor
or wise politician in these times when the
storms of Indignation set in motion by the
people, are sure to bury both him and his
party deep beneath the waves. That 81, 900
is milestone about Beams neck.
CLYDE, O., July I'd, 1860.
FRIEND KEELER:-In your last weeks
issue noticed an account of Mr.. Beams
examination before the Covode Committee,
which l suppose to be correct.
In reading his remarks in connection with
the Douglas Ratification meeting the other
evening, about the corruption of the Id
ministration, / am forcibly reminded of an
apparent ingratitude in denouncing "a bridge
that carried him safe over" He seems to
go out of his way to abuse the Admins
tration for the gift of $4,000, which he ac-
knowledges receiving, but which he failed
to put to the use agreed upon.
Such things look bad these stormy
times. A DEMOCRAT.

Ready for tho "Dirty work. >,

One of the Democratic speakers, county
officer, on last Wednesday night declared to
democrats that the ticket was made, and
their work laid out before them, and it was
their duty to do it all. Every man about
the Court House, he said, should be called
upon to do this work, and he knew they
would do it. A voice in the crowd.-"No
matter how dirty."] "Not a Bit" replied
the speaker, "No matter how dirty. Vel
do it,"
That is a specimen of the eloquent
speeches" made to the Democracy of this
county. Not one word of argument is made
use of to controvert the truths of the Re-
publican platform, or to convince the minds
of tho voters. If a Republican were to
make use Of such language in addressing
meeting he would instantly be overwhelmed
with storm of Kisses. We believe there is
too much virtue left in the masses of dem
ocratic voters in Sandusky County, to be
driven like brutes at the will of such sneak
ing and corrupt politicians.

Congress having adjourned, Mr.. Carey
has returned after six months absence, TO
enjoy, for a time, tho sweets and quiet Of
home and friends. He has served this dis
trict most faithfully, and has proved an able,
efficient and working member. No man in
the House is moro respected. He has not
been absent from his seat single day, has
never paired off and has voted on every
question that has come up.
II Judge Carey can be prevailed upon to
be candidate again, we are in favor Of
electing him without the formality Of q
nomination.-7y 7yffn Tribune.
JOHN CAREY has been the most faithful
and active Representatives the lXth district
has ever had to represent them in Congress
and we know from personal knowledge that
no member is more respected, and whose
opinion is of more weight in the legislative
hall than that Of Farmer CAREY. He has
expressed desire not to be re-nominated,
but we hope and believe that he may be
induced to reconsider the subject. JoHN
CAREY is our first choice for Representa-
tive, and Judging from the expressions Of
his constituents, they are unanimous in
the demand for him to remain in the posi-
ton he has so we'll and so faithfully filled.
Whether there be Congressional Con-
vention or not, JOHN CAREY is the choice
of the Republicans of Sandusky county.
We suggest that the Congressional Con-
vention be held on Friday, September 7tb,
and that Tiffin or Forest be the place.

superlativo Impudence.

The accounts given by the Democratic
papers of this town of the ratification for
their Rump ticket-Douglas and Johnson
on Wednesday evening, the 9th, cannot
be styled in any moro appropriate words
than the above. True, they fied "Old
CroghaD," and the gun spoke loud and WELL
but they wero only salvos over the grave of
the Little Giant With all their great eff
forts throughout the county, not one hund-
red and fifty persons were present who lived
outside of the corporate limits. A few
teams with hickory bushes paraded the
streets, and when the speaking came off at
the Court House, there were not 500 pres
ent, including men women and children,
and large number of the crowd were Re-
publicans. 1t was "one grand farce" and
the speeches consisted of abuse heaped up
on democrats who would not support Doug
las. The torches looked very pretty, but
the crowd who carried them were noisy and
impudent; and we know of more than one
Democrat who was heartily ashamed of the
demonstration. Poor Democracy! Its pu-
trid corpse can never be resuscitated, and
the sooner it is put under the sod, the speed
ier will the health of the country bo per-
fected.

BACKING OUT.-Mr. John Slidell has
been pleased to write to his constituents
that Abraham Lincoln's election "would not
present as absolute, unmistakable test Of
sentiment as that of Mr.. Seward" That
is, Mr.. Lincoln is moro conservative, in Mr..
slidelrs opinion, or else, If be is going to be
elected, Mr.. Sidell thinks it is already time
to be backing out of all disunion threats.

only be obtained from the Priests ofthe Sun. Sometime
Afterwards the gentlemen in conversng with Priest
obtained from him the secret Of its preparation, and
certaned where the medicinal herbs found owhieh

The Washington correspondent of the
Cincinnati Gazette says: "a gentleman
from Delaware informs me that it is more
than proable that Lincoln will carry that
State, owing to the increasing strength of
Republicanism there, and the divisions of
the Democracy, between the two wings of
which the bitterest possible feeling exists.
A Republican electoral ticket has been
formed, and the campaign will be prosecu-
ted with vigor.

A Capital Good Time.

Was had by the Wide-Awakes on Fri
day evening last atthe Wigwam. Between
four and five hundred were assembled and
listened to two frst-rate speeches, from
FRANK SAWYER, ESQ.,, of Norwalk, and
Judge PALMER, of Findlay. Mr.. PALMER
has until lately been democrat. His last
great political sin-which he has sincerely
repented of-was in voting for James Bu-
chanan. His remarks must have been like
the fire and the hammer on the hearts Of
his old democratic associates who still cling
to the mis-named democratic party. Both
speakers were frequently interrupted by en-
thusiastic and hearty applause. After the
speaking, tho Wide.Awakes formed torch
light procession, and marched through the
principal streets on each side of tho river.
When the procession passed sour house"
halt was ordered, and three tremendous
cheers were given for our better half, who
had illuminated the editorial mansion" 10
our absence. Of course we can appreciate
such favors. The procession then crossed
over to the East side Of the river, and
then returned to the Wigwam. The streets
were throDged with people, who seemed
better pleased with the demonstration than
with the democratic turn out two nights be-
fore. Tho Wide-Awakes have already en-
rolled several who have always before voted
with the democracy, and there are still
moro who will sign the "bill of rights" the
''charter of freedom"

This used to be the injunction of the
Democracy when they suspected that some

appears that both wings Of the party have
looked to the Senate for their candidates for
President and Vice President. They could
not select them from the People, but took
them from the office-holders.

We occupy considerable space in our pa

that reach US, Of the way the nominations
Of Breckenridge and Lane are received by
that wing of Locofocoism termed the Pure,
or National Democracy. We do this the
more cheerfully, as that wing of the party
has no organ in this county, and because
the Douglas papers hero carefully suppress
all information in regard to the enthusiasm
and satisfaction with which these nomina-
tions are received. The demonstrations Of
the Breckenridge men in the Free States,
surprises the Douglas men, and the una
nimity with which the Southern Democra-
cy come to his support is perfectly astound-
ing. 1t will be impossible for Douglas TO
carry single Southern State, and where he
is to get any Northern ones, is more than
any of his friends can point out. But TO
