How the south 10 ~gard the Northern
Democracy.


The radicals keep up the false and
senseless cry that the rebels desire the
election of the conservative candidates in
the North. No donbt those of the South
ern people who sigh for the reorganization
of the Union do ardently desire this but
there is nothing the leaders of rebellion
fear so much as Democratic success in the
Northern election districts.
Now if the Buffalo Courier, from which
the above Is cut, dare be honest, and If
Its party can afford to have the truth told,
will that paper give the following extract
from the Richmond Enquirer of the 9TH
inst, and then say whether this expression
of anxiety for democratic success is a "rad-
zeal lalsehood," or bona fde extract
from the official organ of the rebel
government. Read the En9pirer's re-
marks:
Gen. Lee must turn politician as well
as warrior, and we believe he wiR prove
the most successful politician the Confed
eracy has ever produced. He may so
move and direct bis army as to produce
political results which in their bearings
upon this war will prove more eaectual
than the bloodiest victories. Let him
drive Meade into Washington and he will
again raise the spirits Of the democrats,
confirm the timid and give confidence to
the wavefng. He will embolden the
Peace party should he again cross the Po-
tomac, for he will show the people of
Pennsylvania how little security they have
from Lincoln for the protection Of their
homes.
Now, Mr.. Courier Of Buffalo, or Rat
land, what do you say to that ?
THE New YORK HERALD ON Gov.
SEYMOUR AND THE PACE PARTY. The
following significant language of the N.
Y. Herald indicates how the tide is turn
ing;
The results from that day to this, where
,sver this abominable peace programme
has ,reen tried, have been the same - an
indignan:. rebuke and reputation Of the
ronnerheads by the people. AS it was in
Connecticut, So ~ Is now IN maine. 4no
war democrats have joined the war re-
publicans and have overwhelmingly car
rled the day. Ohio and Pennsylvania, in
October, will be very apt to follow in the
wake ct Maine and California for while
VaIIandlgham, as the great apostle of the
copperheads, IS more obnoxious to Union
war democrats than Bradbury, Judge
Woodward, the head of the denocra &c
ticket IN Pennsylvania, Yves brought for
ward on the same ground, and IN the
midst of rebel invasion of the state.
We apprehend, too, that the shllIy-shal-
ly, contemplate, demoralzng, do-nothng
course of Go,. Seymour in reference to
the draft and the late riots in this city has
| dlttused throughout the North the suspl-
cIon that these impracticable projects OF
the copperheads for peace with the South
mean nothing less than civil war and an
archy at our own doors. We conclude,
accordingly, that the late democratic CON
ventlon at Albany, in endorsing the wis
dom, patriotism and energy of Governor
| Seymour in these late trials of the public
patience, made a great mistake. If they
wish to carry our November election, they
will at least keep Seymour in the back
ground. He has attempted the difficult
feat of carrying water on both shoulders,
and has signaIIy failed. He was draw
back to Bradbury in Maine, and will be
no advantage to St. John, Church &
Company.
