The Democrats and the War,

The secesh-ocrats of this section are great
ly rejoicing over. the recent elections in
Pennsylvania, Ohio and Indiana, as great
victories. We beg to inform them that
they are not victories to the secession SYM
pathy sentiment that prevails in so-called
Democratic circles here. The most of our
men are of the Vallandigham and Mahoney
stripe who have been repudiated.
Our men, until very recently, have been
anti-war, peace men, and in favor of letting
the South go, while these others have given
their means and sympathies to suppress the
rebellion.
Nearly all ofthe Democrats elected in the
Western States are of the type called war
Democrats, who have achieved success in

Gov. Temple In Defence.

At a political meeting held in this town
on Saturday evening last, Gov. Temple fig
ured largely on the stage, taking the best
part OF an hour and u half to explain, rebut
and defend himself from what he called the
slanderous attack of David J. Murphey
Esq, and the Smyrna Times.
Many of the audience were more than
once reminded that true tale is soon told.
requiring no such voluminous use of words
as must be drug out in one aud half hours
speech, when fifteen minutes ought to have
been amply sufficient to clear up the charges
with which he has surrounded himself.
We have had no desire to do Mr.. Tenn
pie injustice, and i'll all we have said about
him, (Which has been confined simply to his
political bfe) we have said nothing but what
we believed was founded on truth. We do
not wonder that he felt restive under the
statements made, and pronounce them false
the indicted offender will do the same,
though the denial stick in his throat and
choke him.
MIR. Temple pronounced the statements
made by Mr. Murphey and the Times "as
false as hell" He will have TO draw bet
ter figure than that cOuched in the above
etegant CO expression, for conscientious peo-
pie are fearful hell Is not so 80 false :" and if
the charges are no more false than his COM
parison, they are rot false at all. Notwith-
standing this very elegant and forcible ex-
preston, he admitted, in the same connec-
ton, that he had conversation with Sena-
tor Toombs, in the presence of John G.
Breckenridge and several Delaware gentle
men, where substantially the same CONVEX
sation occurred, i'll which Toombs declared
that if Republican President should be
elected they would secede, and if they could
not get the Chesapeake for a boundary, they
We're determined to have the Potomac. This
conversation, however, he locates in the ro-
tunda of the Capitol.
The point at issue is here admitted -
that he toas fully apprised Of their designs a gear
6.fore they attempted to sececie, and Joined in
their hyPocritical cry of compromise, when
ne knew they did not want one. There is
question of yeracity as to whether there
was conversation in Mr.. Bayards parlor
or rooms, or not 1t was quite possible for
Gov. Temple to have met some of his
"southern brethren in Senator Bayard's
parlor, as well ms have the above conyersa-
ton in the rotunda. Dir. Marphey says.

him that he Temple) did have such CONVEX

FREE SPEECH.-One of the pleasantest
'lts OF impudence characterizing the present
State canvass is the assurance with which
the blatant Democracy complain of the
abrldgment ofthe freedom ofspeech. Their
orators and Journals TEEN with abuse of the
Government, and with all sorts of aid and
comfort to the enemy they arc permitted
to even openly advocate the recognition of
the rebel Confederacy, to accuse the officers
OF the Government of imbecility, venality
and treason to load them with all the epi-
thets that the virulence of disappointed
ofhce-seekers can concoct; and yet each fresh
assault is wound up with the averment that
the assailants are restricted in their freedom
OF speech. They have, in fact, not only
freedom, but unbridled license.
