The Democracy look fo- and desire
nothing else than false and foul abuse from
the radicals, but what faith can be put in
the moderate professions of Republicans,
when one of their most conservative pa

"As matters now stand, the Democratic

The Abolition party is now known as a
gigantic sham, having neither capacity nor
disposition for an honest and constitutional
administration Of Government any more
than for the proper conduct of great war; /;
while its capacity. for evil-for outrage,
pluDder, and folly-is unexampled and in.
tolerable.

The guilty wretches who are now rapid
ly dividing the North, and even their own
party. as in Missouri, are the same who d.
vided their country, and aided in plsnging
it into bloody and ruinous civil war
The demon Of discord is their God, and
they would go on stirring up strife, if they
could, until father was divided against son,
and brother against brother, from one end
of the earth 10 the other.

The expenses of the Government are
nearly two millions Of dollars per day -

had stolen more from the Treasury in fifteen

The Constitutions as Id Is, and

Ho, Democrats Of every State,i
Who love your country's laws,
Prepare ye for the conflict now,
For near the battle draws
49, And let your banners blazen forth
, Tho watchword Of your cause
THE CONSTITUTION AS IT'S,
TIE UNION AS IT WAS. -
The warning voice Of Washington
, Still echoes through theland-
The Constitution must be saved,
Tho dangers be at hand.
All violation Of the laws
Should instantly be checked;
Without the chart Of liberty,
Our freedom would be wrecked;
Permit no. estate necessity"
To mar its smallest part,
For 'tis the tyrant's hiltsd stsslI
Tepierce the nations heart
The Sage of Monticello spoke,
And warned US of the worst;
He said by sectional disputes
Our country would be cursed,
His prophet eye teheld the North
Against the South arrayed;
'Gainss geographic party lines
d. The dying statesman prayed,
The right of each and every State
Its own affairs to rule;
The doctrine was of Jefferson,
And all science of his school.
The hero Of the Hermitage
This sentiment s1press'd-
The Union, it must be preserved
All wrongs by law redrsssed:q
The rights reserved by every State
Still sacred must remain
The freedom Of the press and speech
No power should e'sr restrain;
Whoever darss to break the law
To trial straightway bring,i
And If high treason be his crime,
Like Haman let him swing.
The Constitution a, it's
Wswant no higher law;
Our fathers, when they made it,
They coming dangers saw,
They formed it broad enough for all
Declared the work was good
The Esis of our liberties
bond of brotherhood;
1t covered North and South alike,
United East and West,
And made our country prosperous,
ourpeopls free and blest.

THE CONCLUSION.

Everybody knows that about as high q
price was put upon my head BY the seces-
sionists as that OF any other man in the
state. l don't know why they should have
done it. Of course there are great many
men in the state who could do more harm
to them than could, but still from the be-
ginning they have known me as IN undevi-
ating opponent of their schemes, and firm
supporter of my government; and don't
believe that this stigma of Copperhead,
which is applied to me, as well as to every
body else who opposes the schemes of these
radicals, will have the least injurious effect
upon me in the minds Of all honorable men,
specially when they reflect that it is ap-
piled by this crawling race of people, who
protest to be the only simon-pure, unadul-
terated patriots in the country, though l
have never known single one of them to
bear arms in favor of the government.

And I shall not be deferred from speak
Ing my sentiments, as, | trust, any other
man, who has the interest of this State and
section Of country at heart, will not be de-
TERED from speaking his sentiments through
fear of being stigmstised by these hirelings
as CoDperheQas.

follows:
! throw myself entirely into this contest

We must stand 10y the Government. we must
obey the laws, We must r.spcct official authori-
ty, we must respond with alacrity to the calls
of patriotism, and SO long as may have the
strength, support the Constitution and til,

l am prepared to say here and through the
press, TO our friends of the South. that before
that frebel) flag shall float over the National
Capitol, every man woman and child would
enlist for the war.
We have many men in our own com.

Dear Guardian
In hurriedly closing up my letter o
