iohe,e dsd they come from ?"
Some ofshosc men we're once democrats
--one Of them did, on the plains Of Mex
leo, what DR.. John never will do--perilled
his life for the honor of the old Aag-and
one other Of them was at one time elected
Vice President, by DR.. John and his par
ty. Where did they come from! They
came out from, deserted, left the demo-
cratic party; and whatever may have
hecn their former political nnections,the
democracy of the North are no more re-
sponsible for their action; than DR.. John !
and his party are for the action OF ohm
Bell of Tennessee, or for that of the broth
ers Of Mrs Lincoln, who now hold com.
missions under jeff Davis in the secession
army. That is plain answer to plain
question-those who remain in party
are not responsible for t c conduct of those
who leave it.
But who in the South are battling for
the Union Do we find President Lin
coin brothers in law among the loyal cit
izens DO we find John Bell No, lar
from it, and none Of those men ever were
democrats. But we find in Tennessee that
staunch patriot and Democrat Andrew
johnson denouncing treason and secession
and standing up for the government; we
find in Kentucky that life long democrat,
and late member of Buchanan s cabinet,
Joseph Holt, battling for the union, the
constitution aud the rights of the States.
When we come to the north where the
material is raised wherewith to fight this
war, whom do we find rushing to the field!
We find the following named general off
GERS, who always were and are now mem
bers of the democratic party, viz Major
Generals--George B. Mcclellan; John A.
Dix; Benjamin F. Butler ; John L. Wool;
and Robert Patterson. Brigader Gener-
ais VIM. j. kosencrans Frederick w.
Lander Isaac l. Stephens; Andrew
Porter George Cadwalader; Daniel e.
r Sickles; Burnside; Heintzleman; Hun
/ ter; Franklin Lyon; cDowell; Blen-
L ker; Robert Anderson; Prentiss; Nor
t ris; Suitte Sturgis; Sweeny; Wright
l and a host of others, whose names we are
unable to call to mind.
y And of the men who follow them, two
n thirds are members of the democratic par
+. ty. In Philadelphia, where the stay at
;. home republicans beat Robert Ewing, a
n soldier of two wars nearly five hundred
7. votes for Sheriff, the democratic army vote
gives him a majority OF 1900. And
who is it that now desires to disfranehis(
Il the soldiers, and throw the army vote ou
of the ballot boxl We answer IL Is tn
