The Cleveland Pioin Dealer hoistcd tho
9TH of August Ticket, complmontcd the nom.
inees, shouted loudly for Jewett, and declar
ed the III atform was "sound and patr lotto"
IT has since pulled it down, and now it goes
for the Fusion Ticket. If an other ticket be
nominated, the Plain Dealer will 'go for it"
1t is bound to be popular. But Tod is rich,
has coal banks and plenty Of rail road prin-
ting TO be done! Patriotic Plain Dealer.
The Democracy desire that Success may
cv cr attend the Armies of our Country; and
Victory perch upon the standard of the Union
it has been ever their pride to sust ain. They
have sent hundreds and thousands OF their par.
ty to the field to support the Government
Our old party has never been false to the
Government. For FIFTY YEARS, without a
change Of name, it has been as a watch-word
and it still echoes it, ''Ihe Union-h must be
preSrUcd.' No misrepresentation or falschood
can make the Democracy of little Holmes
false to their old flag, the one under
which they have SO long marched and which
still waves ov er them.
Bear it in mind, Democrats, that the Re-
publcans don ounce the Democratic State
Platform because it did not in manly words
sustain all the acts of the Administrations
/ The Fusion Convention did not pass word
complimentary to the Administration. Why
did they not boldly come out and endorse all
its acts, ifit is righti
The Fusion State Convention was man
aged by X. p. Spading, Ben Wade, Prof Mon
roc, OF Oberlin abolitionists of tho deepest
dye. These men generous ly agreed to put
u couple Of men on their ticket whom the
and who itch for office, in consideration that
Wade is returned to the Senate.
We respectfully submit that the men who
will vote for II. j. Jcwett and the entire Dem
ocratic Ticket are just as true prtriots, as sin
cere friends of their country, as those who
vote the Fusion Ticket. 1t seems according
| to some newly converted Unoniss, that no
man is patriot who opposes their mongrel
ticket.
The Fremont, Messenger says Tod will be
beat at least $4,000 yotcs.' Tho Sandnsky
Register says he will be elected by 100, ,000.-
Thus it will he seen that there is a great dit
ference of opinion. H. J. Jcwctt is a hard
man to beat, and as Davy Tod has "sipred
up" on being Governor twice, he may be un-
successful this time.
The New York 1ribunc now admits that
if a National Convention had been called this
war might have been avertcd." Take care,

He must feel as well as the man did who had
just got rid the smallpox.
Douglas and Crittendcn have said that our
Ben Wade was one OF the imprac .icabes who
would not listen to any thing in the shape OF
compromise or concession. Is it right that q
man should be elected to the Legislature from
this county who would vote for him on the
plea that now he is an unconditional union

--''Obey the laws and support tho Consti-
tuition of the United States,' were the dying
words of Judge Douglas. We who were hi
friends in life revere his dying words. The
Democracy OF the North have ever been faith
iul TO the Union. have ever been the Body
guard OF the Constitution, and will never
yield up the Union, or d,sobey tho provisions
OF its laws. They will keep up their Union
organization, which has never had sympathy
with any man, North or South, who iavors
separation or disunion.
Daniel S. Dickinson, OF New York takes
very nearly the same positions in his speecl
that Mr.. Jewett does in his letter of accep
tance. Both are Tor putting down rebellion
and maintaining the Union of these States
Mr., Dickinson, like Mr.. Jewctt, will make nC
compromise with traitors, and rebels in arms
but both are willing to compromise with tn,
/ loyal men of the Rebel States.
! The Democrats in adherinS to their I'm
/ ion organization are only signiiying that they
believe the Union principles they have advo
Gated in the past are correct. The Republic
ans in disabanding their organization and
Iormiug ''Union" party, admit that th'
principles they advocated last fall were moi
correct. We stand 10y the Union and Nation
/ al Democratic principles

The rumored death OF Jen DAVIS is incor-
