memnons, but the feeling that valor and
skill viii be of no avail is settling within
their hearts with that paraIyzing inAu-
enee that forebodes defeat.
Was ever, in the annals Of an enlight-
eneG country, such piteous spectacle
seen as is presented at this day by Mr.
Lincoln and his swarm of demoralizeG
subordinates A Chief Magistrate in
antagonism with the captain of hisarmies;
a cabinet suspected and abused by its
own party adherents; troops disorganized
unfed, unpaid, unoflicered, with nothing
but their valor to rely upon; and, more
disgusting than ALL horde Of abolition
seribblers wrangling among themselves,
bandying determinations, accusing their
partners in evil, vainly trying to excul-
pate themselves, preyaricating, eXagge-
rating, moaningand mouthing over dis.
aster, or inventing ridiculous theories to
prove defeat victory; agreeing on no
one given point, except that all-absorbing
one-the slavery question Out of this
conglomerated mass of discordant elc-
ments Mr. Lincoln would reconstruct the
Union. With such materials he would
subjugate six millions OF Amoricans-do-
tormined, weH organized, confident,
placing implicit reliance upon themselves
and their commanders He will sooner
accomplish the ruin Of the country and
his own Disgrace The North is proud
and will probably make ono good effort
to come out Of the contest with set of
to Bull Run; but the North is sensible,
too, and will not consent to prolong a
struggle for the mere sake Of giving and
receiving blows. We have seen an an
cry child persistently knocking its head
against a stone wall for very spite, but
we remember no instance where grown
up people with brains have INDUCED in
such questionable recreation
The next reverse that the Federal arms
may chance to suffer will drive the entire
kennel Of abolition hounds into inextri-
cable confusion They are swapping and
snarling at oael other now, like poe6
Of belligereni ours A hg aorc uoh
rs aud the people viii whp them into
silence The better portion &c our cid-
zcus are already some sonotly, some
openly--longing-to drop the curtain on
,his tragical farce The very soldiers
are Disguised with their occupation. They
are willing enough to fight if good cause
can be shown, bat it is too much to ex-
pect that they will shed their hearts blood
in the quarrel Of a tribe of squabbling
fanatics. Il questionable whether Mr..
Lincoln can enlist a corporals guard be.
You'd those who are absolutely driven in
to the ranks by hunger, or those who are
soldiers by nature, and fight wherever
occasion offers. As for the abolitionists
they will mostly stay at home, and Dc
their fighting among themselves. If W,
could place thom, like the cats and dog
Of Cambyses, in the van, there would be al
least one reasonable object for the prose
cution Of the war.

that, even while the war was gJing on,
there might be a Convention oi the

DEnOCRATIC PLATFORM.

The Democracy and other Union men OF
Ohio, in Convention assembled, ADOPT and
declare The following resolutions as The bo.
sis upon which they appeal to all patriotic
Union and liberty loving citizens TO unite
and rally i'll the support Of the ticket this
day presented.
Resolved, That the civil war, by
which our couLttyis at present distracted is
the natural offspring Of misguided sectional.
ism, engendered by lanatica agitation North
as well as South, and that the Democratic
party have equally opposed the extremists OF
both sections, and having at all times zeal
ously contended for the administration OF
the General Government within its Consii.
tuIional limits, that party is no way respon-
sible for the calamitieS that have resulted
from departure from lis doctrines and a
disregard of its warning and advice .".
2d-Resolved, That in this national emer-
geucy the Democracy and other Union men
of Ohio, banishing all feeling Of passion or
resentment, will recolIect only their duty 10
the whole country that this war should not
be waged in conquest or suhiugation, nor
for the purpose Of overthrowing or interle-
lluH WIFI ll9uNo VI JuSlltu-
tious of the States, but 10 defend and main.
tain the supremacy Of the Constitution, and
10 preserve the Union with all the dignity,
equality and rights of The several States an.
impaired, and that as soon as these objects
are accomplished, the war ought 10 cease.
3d-That while we deem it The duty Of
every citizen to support and sustain the Gov
nanei;f,iin,,alI,, oil, .,,;-s o. %
recommend that the Legislatures of the sew
eral States adopt the proper measures for
calling National Convention for the pur-
pose of settling our present difficulties, and
restoring and preserving the Union.
4th-ThaL the corruption, extravugance,
incompetenCy, and iavoritism shown in the
administration of the War Departments uf
the State and Federal Governments deserve
aud receive our unqualified condemnation,
and ought 10 be Immediately corrected and
reiomed.'
5Lh-That the volunteer soldiers who, ct
the call Of their country, promptly went
forth to do battle in defense of The Cons H.
tutipn and laws, and in many cases have
been compelled under inexperienced Off
GERS, are entitled to our hearty thanks for
The gallant manner in which they have dis.
charged their duties.
6th-That the privilege of the writ Of
Habeas Corpus is one of the great bulwarks
of freedom, and that no citizen can be le-
galy deprived Of the. benefit thereof, except
by Congress, and then in case of rebellion
or invasion, when the public safety may re-
quire it, and that The late attempt of the
President of the United States to suspend
the privilege Of the same is uEwarantel
BY the Federal Constitution.
