a IN the South, Democracy to-day means
slavery, treason, rebellion, murder, arson
and theft, and the man who proclairns him
self opposed to afDemocratic oFganiaatiOb
lays himself liable to be arrested as an en-
emy to the Confederacy, and either whip-
ped or ehoked to death. All these are i'm
piled, because the men who arc in the lead
Of the Democracy are at the head Of the
rebellion, and only they, aad they admit Of
no opposition to Democracy, no matter how
Tie. dogma conflicts with religion, truth,
justice, or liberty. Certain Democrats al
the North maintain their identity with that
party, by either openly or secretly. sympa-
fhising with treason The moment any
man expresses q willingness to support
the war, or when any man is heard 10 de-
clare himself in favor Of the national ad-
ministration-Whichi is synonymous with
the Government-thatm moment these same
Democratic leaders announce that he is

Such Democracy has no claim to the sup
port Of honest men Who will identity
himself with such partizans?
