The Slaveocracy of the South rebellec
Nc inst the people. the majority of ths
r aprssentasives Of the common people o.
the Country. 1t was the aristocratif
s'arehaldsrs OF the Senate who ostracised.
Douglas the great Democrat of the North,
and il was the aristocratic shareholders oil
the South who seeded from the Demo.
cratic convention and nominated Breck.
inridgs. Again it was the slaveholding
aristocracy who secuted the election Of
the Grail Splitter" and arrayed them
selves in arms under the lead of the great
s-istocrat JEFF. Davis to overthrow the
Government to the Presidency Of which
the people had elevated .'the great COM
moner" Abraham Lincoln.
And now we begin TO sec faint indica-
tions that the common people OF the south
are awakening to the issue. The people,
the non-slaveholders Of Western Virgin
is long ago refused to follow the lead of
the slave oligarchy Of the Eastern part
of the State. And the telegraph signif-
cantly notices that it was the common
people, the laborers and mechanics who
quietly knocked down the secesh syura-
thizers wherever they found them rejoic-
ing over the defeat of Gen Banks.
So We hear from New Orleans that the
common people are enlis,ing under the
command Of Gen. Butler to fight for the
Government and the Union.
So it is here in the North, the secesh
sympathiaers are the scions Of dilapidated
Virginians and Maryland whose chief
boast it is that their relatives own mig.
gers-of conrse these gentlemen are cor
daily supported by the Joneses and
D'dges and the smaller fry of seedy old
ex-ofhce holders and rampant office seek
ers, with spotted crowd of follow ers,
whose devotion to party viii lead them
into treason to their country.
