tn Democratic Central Committee

The Democratic Central Committee
We pNbashed last week, at the request of
the Breckenridge men, a call fora delegate con-
veDtion in Ashland County, signed by L. C.
Bushnell as Chairman of the Democratic Cen
trial Committee. We suppose it is well under
stood IL the Democracy of Ashland County,
that Mr.. Bushnell is Chairman of the Brock
anrf6ye Central Committee, made so at a con-
Sentisn that was held long after the time that
the Democracy of the county Usually choose
their committee. The Chairman of the regu-
lar Democratic Central CJmmittee of Ashland
County is VIM. B. McCARTY, ESQ, made
such by the regular County Convention, he'd
.at the usual time and place under a regular
call and as the successor of John J. HOFFMAN.
-isi We have this further to say in regard to the
call referred to. We think tat both for the
good of the COUNTRY, and the divided Democ-
l.=racy, the call is iHtimed. It is proposed ito
= nominate Breckenridge candidates for State
- o hrers on the 9Th of next month. Congress
is now in session. the country is trembling up
on the verge of dissolution. and it behooNes
every patriot in this, her hour of trial, to do
every thing in his power to beat down and
GOs6T hnCluD III ~ -hhaS oS
brought us to this danger. 1t rests upon the
Democratic party to do this and if We
ramain divided it is impossible, The Demo-
cratic members of the Congress now in
session, with all other patriots, will undoubt-
eddy agree upon SOME measures of compromise,
e that will meet cut justice to all sections of
the country, and that will prevent a dissolu
. ton of the Union. IF this is done, it will die
the duty of all Dcmocratsand all other patriots
and conservative men 10 sustain those meas
ures, if right, and if it is seen that upon their
ratification depends the perpetuity of the
rconfederacy. Within a few weeks after
THE time that they propose to hold this State
Convention, proceedings may be instituted in
Congress which will char ge the whole aspect
of affairs and a platform probably will be put
forth upon which all conservative men can
cordially unite. The only effect then of such
a nomination will be to make a union Of the
Democracy more impracticable and encompass
1t with greater difficulties. If Breckenridge
men have,s as they claim, the good of
the country and party at heat, they should
await the issue of events that will eliminate
within the next few months, and pursue a
course that will have a tendency to unite, in
stead of to distract and divide.

the Prcsidenf,s Messaee.

We publish this week, to the exclusion of
other matter, the Presidents Message. 1t is
an able document and meets the proceedings
of the secessionists in the proper spirit. Look
ing upon them as deeply wronged, the Presi-
dent denies the right to proceed as they pro-
pose, but urges the adoption of such measures as
will prevent the recurrence of those wrongs.
Although We do not agree with some of its
doctrines, We yet believe that nothing better
could have been said to allay the present ex-
citement and prevent the dissolution of the
Union. We have not space this week for
further comments. Gs7sT 1--E -. p.
The Message is variously received by the
press of the Country. The Republicans de
nounce it because the President does not at
once ~inaugurate a civil war and undertake to
whip the rebelIioas States into obedience
The Secessionists denounce it because the
President clearly and boldly denies their right
to vote themselves out of The Union and thus
destroy it. The fact that the extremists of both
sections are "down on it" is good evidence of
its correctness. 1859 -
