A lew Words to Union Democrats.

rs we have frequently said, We do not
claim that those Who supported Douglas last
fail comprise all of the Union Democracy -
Every Democrat Who hopes to see treason
aud rebellion 90 down before the hosts that
morch under the American Flag, are of us,
and we o.ght all to vote together. Can any
Union man be SO blind a devotee Of n pa ~
organization that lie must remain with neh
who exult over the defeat of loyal Americans
in battle, rather than withdraw from bad
company Who that was present at the late
Bull Run County Convention, has any doubt
that it lived, moved and had its being in Gym
Pathy with the bogus Southern Confederacy?
Why. many Of the delegates openly and
frankly declare themselves in favor Of the
Davis rebellion aud are filed with inpa-
tience, when Pony is expected. to hear OF
another Secession victory. We are un willing
to believe that party containing such ma
teria is to receive the support of any who
deny the righteousness Of the Davis cause

to become Foreigners The Breckinridge
party of this State belong to the southern
tonfrderacy Democracy. What argument is
necessary to show this? Can we not take
their own declarations for it? The debates
in their State Convention set this matter at
rest. They avowed their sympathy with the
rebel gang Of conspirators commended hy
jeff Davis, and del ided and insuited the Ma
tional Government although they have NOM
mated ~hattu k and Barber for seats in the
National Congress
To come nearer home, We in this county
know that the Secession county ticket is a
spawn Of the State concern, headed 10y Nc
Connell We know that the Express was
endorsed rs soun by the Secession state
invention. and are satisfied from hearsay
that its columns TEEN. constantly, with sedi
tious and reasonable stuff from the pens OF
Mcconnell, Bolts, Volney Howard. Colonel
Saunders and others of their kidney. And
yet men upon the ticket nomin ,ted by the
Express clique pretend to call themselves
Democratei Can it be possible that igno-
lance go dense can possess any man, as to in

We will net believe it. Breckenridge men
tell us they want to defeat the Republican

Break laose froEa men who are no longer
possessed of one single Democratic sentiment,
and act with those who have maintained a
Democratic organization. which is true TO the
Union. and true to National principles and
policy, in that Union. After September the
Breckinridge party will never more be heard
Of ITS ranks are broken, and its officers are
disheartened. They will. as soon rs the re
turns are in, follow in the wake of Austin E
Smith and II l. Thornton Their dupes who
remain behind will be mortified and disgrace
