The Democratic Address.

The Address of Mr. Ryan, prepared in
advance for the self styled Democratic
Convention recently held at Milwaukee,
meets with little favor from the loyal por-
ton of that party. Mat. H. Carpenter,
of Milwaukee, who has long been looked
upon as a shining light in the Democratic
ranks, has published seathing review of
the Address, which we Will publish next
week The La Crosse Democrat declines
to publish the Address, and gives its rea-
we give the following extracts.
THE CONVENTION REPRESENTED ONLY SNAIL
PORTION OF THE STATE.
Twenty-one counties (out of fifty-fve in
the Statel were represented One hun
dred and ninety-five delegates. as appears
from the reported proceedings. were ac-
credited there some of whom as we know
personally, we're not in attendance. Had
the State been fully represented, there
would have been four hundred ind fifty
six delegates in attendance.
THE ADDRESS As 4 NATTER OF POLICY.
What sense is there for party in the
minority to hang out their banners and in
yite defeat at the ballot box There was
a little, gnurly, short horned, believing,
crooked-tail bull, with more pluck than
discretion got on the track, shook his
head, lowered his front, gave out his 'ad-
dress, and was in two seconds wiped out
of existence.
WHO THE ADDRESS WILL PLEASE
Nothing but a united effort viii ever
conquer this rebellion. The address Is an
eloquent one, but viii please jeff Davis
more than the patriotic Democrats Of the
North, after the echo of the speaker
voice dies away. 1t VIII lead the rebels
to believe that the North promises to be
divided
POSITION OF THOSE WHO ENDORSE IT.
Whoever endorses the publication, al
this time of that address, fights on plat
form with Democratic flag as big as q
barn door in the centre--a little National
fac no bigger than mans shirt tail on
she back corner.

MR. EDIToR:-Amid the battle and din of
war; there are other matters which as a peo-
pie concerns US just as deeply, and should rot
be overlooked or neglected.; among these are
proper and judicious selections of candidates
for our civil officers Every patriot through
out the nation has witnessed with pain and
shame the course pursued by some, Ca mino- :
ity fortunately Of our Northern doughface
Congressman; following in the wake of the
traitor Naliindingham they endeavorcd to
block the wheels Of the Government and alb
stract the vigorous prosecution of the war
wherever opportunity offered No doubt but
,bat an attempt will be made this fall in every
Congressional District to elect semi -traitors
pretending to stand upon platform having
for its motto The Constitution as it is-the
Union as it was 1t now behooves every low
en- of his country to see that more dema-
gogues of this stripe tread the hall of Congress
until the rebellion is crushed, and every trail
tor meets his just reward. As the rebels have
attempted to dcfle the Constitution and break
the Union we want men who Will vindicate
that Constitution and restore the 1chole coun-
try upon basis that viii stand for all time
The time is now approaching when the people
of this Congressional District, will be called
upon 10 elect "a representative in Congress =
What manner of man shall we have We
want patriot-a man Of unblcmished iuteg-
;ity-one that will not sacrifice his country
for the sake Of party or personal ambition

to have such strong bold upon all depart

Platteville, Aug II, 1862.
NoTE--We are not much in favor of en-
vassing the merits of candidates in the news

but in this case there can be but little harm,
as Col. Cobb, if candicate, viii probably 90

the District for Congress, one or two of them

we doubt whether any Of our men, would set

No article ever before introduced to the
public has eqcalled the LIQUID GUTTA-PrRcuA
for coating tin or other roofs, new or old
One gallon, costing One Dollar and Fifty
Cents, will thoroughly coat from two hundred
to three hundred feet of roof, and this coat
ing will render the roof perfectly waterproof,
and viii last three times as long as white lead
or other paint. For covering roofs, either
new or old, we repeat, it has no equal for du-
rability or cheapness, and we offer it to the
public fully confident of its intrinsic excel
lence, and with our warranted that it will dc
all that we claim for it. Sold in barrels o:
forty gallons each, at a liberal discount tc
dealers. Address all orders to
