DEMOCRATS To THE RESCUE.
To the Democrats of Harrison
!. as .aa County.

the Democratic members of Congress
have, at last, made move in the right
direction move in favor of preser-
wing the Constitution AS IT is, and
restoring the Government and the
Union AS THEY WERE. 1t is now for
the Democracy of the country EVERY
WHERE, to determine whether they
will "come to the rescue of their eoun-
try" save it from the ruin and desola-
,tion which the present policy of the
republican leaders in Congress, such as
Bingham, will, most inevitably bring
upon it. 1t is time, in all conscience,
that'all sensible men, who are Union
lists at heart; should pause and con-
slider the consequences which must in
evitably follow further pursuance of
the mad policy pursued by the party
in power; and it is to be hoped that
the Democracy of every county, in
every State in the Union, WILL RALLY
WITHOUT DELAY, and come up in their
strength, to the rescue of their common
country from impending ruin.
As will be seen by last weeks and
this weeks Sentinel, the Democratic
Central Committee of Harrison coun4
ty have called meeting of the De-
mocracy and all others who are in fa-
yor of restoring the Union as it was
and preserving the Constitution as it is,
for Saturday, June %, in Cadiz, to ap-
point delegates and get a general ex-
preston of their views in this great
crisis.
The grand object of the members of
Congress in issuing the address, and
our Central Committee in calling the
County Convention, is tosecure more
thorough organization Of the great
Democratic family--that family whom
the Abolition Republicans deridingly
denominated "UNIoN SAVERS" preyi-
Gus to the present war--and through
that organization become able to dis
place the Goths and Vandals who are
now in the Capitol, restore peace, har-
mony and prosperity to the country,
and adopt such course of legislation
as win bring about harmony and good
feeling between the different sections
Of the whole country. In other words,
THEIR object, and the object of all 9th.
er truly loyal men, is TO SAVE THE
UNION as it WAS formerly, and the
Constitution as it now is. Hence it il
not expected that those who are welded
to the narrow contracted, and suicida
policy of prosecuting the present wa
for the determination of slavery in th'
South, without regard to Constitution
Law or Gospel, will participate in thu
move. Such men are not for thei
country as it is; but they are for divi
ding it, if slavery cahnot be abolished
by force of arms. They are disunion
lists PER Sc, and can have no part no
parcel in work which they neither un
derstand nor desire to accomplish.
The issue pending between the Unio
Democracy of the country and til
party in power is already fairly befor
the people. 1t has been forced upo
the Democracy by the Abolition Re
publican leaders from one end of th
Union to the other; and such is its rt
voting character, that sail the worl
and the rest of mankind" must loath
and abhor it.. The party in power
seeking to subvert and destroy tn
Constitution and demoralize and i'm
poverish the country, by turning loos
$500, 900 slaves amongst the people {
the free States to devastate the coul
try and prey upon its inhabitants. III
Democracy are oPPosED-unalterabl
opposed--to this mad, suicidal, an
ruinous policy, and ask all good loy'
Union men in the land to unite wit
them in one glorious and successful e
fort to put down the WRONG and mail
tain the RIGHT.
That the effort, properly made ar
judiciously and vigorously continue
will succeed, we have no doubt. SUI
cess is visibly stamped upon eyei
honest Democratic face throughout ii
length and breadth Of the land, an
there can be no such word as FAIL.
Are we asked 'swhat is to be don
in order 10 insure this grand and 81
rious revolution in the political affai
of the country" We will answe
Reorganize the Democratic party
Let one sentiment, one action, and Of
common OBJECT animate and stimula
every Democrat to renewed exertio
in the cause in which the whole cou
try--oUR NOW BLEEDING COUNTRY
has 20 deep an interest. Let the mi
Abolitionsfanatics Of the land be taug
toknow that they cannot lay the
ruthless hands upon the Constitute
