laEver sinco the beglnniug of the present de-
p,orable eiyil war, tho Abolition papers, the
Abolitioaa stumpers, and the Abolition preacn
eva. have charged disleyslty and treason against
,be members Of the Democratic party ana
have sought by the most dishonorabie ano
wicked means to sustain this false charge IN
osdet otssten itsupon more than bali the peo-
ule Sfsthe loyal States. This course has been
40 psras.ently adhered to BY the so,oailea
f,iouds Of the, Administration, shat the foreign
mioistcrs at Washington have been imPeiieo
+, ipouire OF the PaEiIDRNr and mr. sEwARp
vSelber the charge made agsinss the Demo
.c,,,ic party wa 10 be regarded sstrue-ssanDg
,be, &c ;t vas true, thst majority Of tho peo-
nile Of Ohio, Indiana and Pennsylvania were
"rebel sympathizara," they ('he ministers
would be driven to the conclusion that sne
oauss of the Federal Governments was desper'
az :. ,.,
II there be any truth in the Abolition state
.uss..- that the rebels are rejoicing over the
orest Democratic victory in Ohio, Indisna' and
penns5lyaria, then the GREELrrs and SUMMERS
and BEEoHERs in the North, have also succeed
ed In impressiug JEyE. DAvls and his cocoon
spirators in the South, with the beiief that ou'
.slccess at the polls would in some ineApiicaoi'
manner aid tho rebellion.
The President and Mr.. SEWARD doubtless told
tho foreign ministers, that the Abolition
charge OF disloJ ally and treason against inc
Danocracy was false, and that the Govern
meut had received from this came Democracy
a support "nOre powerful BY far than was ever
beloro given by o party to ON Administration
. elevated TO power by political opponents"
Ifft be true that the Abolitionists have de-
csiyed the rebels into tho belief that Demo
cratic triumph would aid the cause oil inc
sopthern Confederaey, we think no time should
he lost ill theJ are -updeceived.
The great political revolution of the Four
tceath must rot be misunderstood. lts import
and significsucy must not be misapprehended
BY friend or foe. The Democratic party stanas
to.dsv where il stood before the election, and
where iG has stood ever since the organisation
of the Government. It's history "is record Of
uucsasine and unyaried devotion TO the Union
of tbe Ssates;" and, in prosperity as well as IN
sdyersisy;it ciDgs to the Constitution which
our Fathers made, "as the mariner cliugs 10
.ae last plank when night and the tempest ciose
arouod him." If any man in the South has
been deceived by the GREELEHa, the suASESS'
and the BErcHERs, ss to It's position, let him be
speedily undecaived. Its glorious victory On
the second Tuesday Of this month does not
mean submission--does not mean separation
Tho Democracy will never assent to anything
short OF a complete restoration Of the old
Union, under the Constitution, ,"wi!h all the
dignity, equality andrights Of the several States
unimpaired." ~ H+ -
The Democratic party is alike hostile to the
sscessionism Of the ssu.h and the Abolition
.i,m Of the KOIth,--bosh would destroy the Union
and uubver: the Constitution, and both must DC
p 4 down.
The people Of the South who want this IN.
natural war 20 stop, and who are willing TO re-
turn to duty and loyslty, may with propriety re-
ioics over our political triumph; but the men
who persist in fighting against the old union'
and who are opposed to i,s restoration under
the Constitution, have nothing to hope from onr
success at the polls.
The men whom the Democracy have just
elected 10 Office will support the Administration
In all It's measures that are right proper ana
constitutional, and in oil OsheFn they Will oppose
Ia While they will cordially support it in
gstrangling the Southern rebellion, they viii al
50 look after the revolulionlsts and corruption
lists Of tho North, who are projected and sup
ported byis.
