The Rebel Allies.

The Richmond enquirer, gives the fol-
lowing opinion of the Democratic party
"That the Democratic party was our
worst enemy, and but for its poisonous
embrace these States would have be en-
free and clear of the unnatural Union
twenty years ago. IL is not lie SeWardS,
and Summers, the Black Republicans and
AJoAitionist, who hare hurt US. They
were right all along; there was an ire
pressible conflict between two different
civilizations, two opposite social organi-
cations they were no more able TO live
peaceably together in one COVER nment than
two hands can wear one glove"
Read and ponder, ye Abolition conspi-
rators, who were "all along right" with
the rebels. See where your praise comes
from. Acknowledge the compliment paid
by your diSunion allies in the South, and
let us hear no more Of your hypocritical
rawlings about "Copperheads." The DEM
ocratic party, the rebels say, was their
acorSt enemy. Its embrace was poisonous,
because it prevented them from getting
out of the Union twenty years ago. The
Abolitionists and Black Republicans did
not hurt them, they were right all along,
for they taught the "irrepresible conflict
doctrine, in other words, the disunou
doctrine. They have been playing into
the hands Of the rebels, and it will require
the best efforts of the Democratic party
which is hated alike by these co-conspira-
tors To defeat their hellish Vaccinations.
Do you hear this, Oh DR.. John

fasify.
Some time since the young preacher OF
Orangeville circuit came to Savage'' school
house TO deliver his first address at that
place. He was accompanied by two sap
headed Abolitionists from Robrsburg, ono
of whom especially, is known to possess but
very ordinary intellect, who barely
knows enough to make cigar, yet pro-
fesscs to be skilled in the art of hearing,
but who is styled by all thoroughly gradu'
ated physicians nothing more than a
duack. The preacher in the first part of
his discourse gave his political opinions,
claiming to belong to no party. In con-
cluding however he not only contradicted
what he hid said, but threw off the garb
which conceded the niger principles he
entertained, by saying that he was for sup
porting this Administration, making no
exceptions. Said he, also, "If being in
favour of supporting this Administration
causes you to withhold your support from
me, do so; do not ask it Of you" Thus
declaring his support in favor of abolition
purposes. We as body are resolved, thai

wheat growers of the country should meet

stand that the money for these premiums

THE Philadelphia "organ" of the Ad.

responsibility of the fearful outbreak upon
the shoulders of the Democratic party in

Rev. j. r. Dimm's Lecture.


This gentleman delivered lecture, on
Friday evening Of last week, before the
Bloomsbury Loyal Lcaguers. Hearing
that MIR. Dimm was expected to address
that Order, we followed him into the
Court House. 1t was the frs, and the last
time, we ever knowingly entered meeting
composed Of disloyal citizens or encour-
aged secret associations.
We understood the speaker to say, most
distinctly, that Abraham Lincoln had been
elected by majority of the voters Of the
United States. The election returns show
that he lacked about 995,0O of a major
ity, and with the (subscquenD vote of South
Carolina cast against him, he is a minority
President by more than million votes.
This is the truth of history.
We pass for the present. his uncondi-
tional approval of the acts of Mr. Lincoln,
his suspension of the writ of HabeaS Cor
puS, the Confscason Act, and his Emanci-
patton Proclamation. Also the suppress
ion Of newspapers and certain citizens
These, we believe, arematters of TASTE

impossibllity of our country's existence

lation of the provisions of our glorious Con-
stitution, and against the peace and order

sacredness of the Constitution is di loyal

County Of Columbia.
Many other points, assumed by the
speaker, we regard as untenablo and err
roneous. That he made grand mistake
in throwing his influence into the scale of
political abolitionism, is our decided opin-
ion, and that opinion is supported by
many worthy citizens. We await the in
exorable logic Of events.
Mr.. Dimm, who has heretofore stood
high in the estimation of this community
on that occasion, disappointed the reason
BILE expectation of every constitutional
citizen who heard him, and we fear has
done much to distract the Church of which
he is the Pastor. Other churches have
been disrupted and the usefulness Of their
Pastors almost intirely destroyed, by the
fanatical zeal of men, afflicted by the
mania of ''Nigger on the brain," who deem
it their first duty to preach abolitionism
instead Of the more wholesome precepts OF
the Gospel. But we read, that the time
will come, when "the Shepherd shall be
smitten and the flock scattered"

b6y' We are very glad to observe that
everywhere in Columbia county, the De-
mocraey are forming Clubs Under the Con-
stitution submitted by the Standing Com
mit'ce; taking their stand openly and
boldly on the rights guaranteed by the
Constitution, and in the face Of clear day
declaring their principles. Thus they
challenge criticism and deserve and secure
the public confidence.
In this they differ widely from their OPP
ponents the "Royal Leaguers," who have
regular secret meetings; and are bound by
oaths to do some things, which we pre-
sumo they dare not openly declare. They
do rot come out upon the platform Of the
"Constitution as it is, and the Union as it
was" but have secret and ulterior objects
whose purposes conflict with the program
me above.
Upon the subject Of such organizations
as they have, Gen. Wilcox, commanding
in the Department of the Ohio, says:--
GENERAL ORDERS NO. s.
Headguaters DIS. of Indiana and Michi-
gan.-Department # The Ohio,
INDIANAPOLIS, June 80, 1868.
The peace of Indina has lately been dis
turbed by violence, murder, and other acts
contrary to law, and having their origin in
certain secret political societies, clubs OF
leagues. The common safety now de-
mands that all such associations should be
discontinued, no matter to wha political
party they may belong. They are con-
slant source of dread and mistrust-
they divide and provoke hostility between
nei ghbors, weaken the dignity and power
of courts of justice, expose the country to
martial law, and discourage the people
from enlisting in defence of the nation.
No matter how earnest or worthy may
have been the reason for such societies ia
the beginning, their very secrecy and the
oaths they impose do enable wicked men
to use them unto unlawful ends, and con-
vert them into public nuisances.
All good objects can be accomplished
openly, and none but the enemies of their
country ever need DISCUSSES.
1t is perfectly plain that such secret or
ganizations are both dangerous and be.
yond the ordinary grasp of the law they
are therefore declared to be hostile, and
will be put down by all the military power
of the District, if need be.
Invoke against the said secret societies
the good influence and active aid of al
men who are friendly TO the Union-tc
discontinue and peaceably break up such
organizations within the limits of the dis
trlct, and | call upon the members thereof
speedily to withdraw from their meetings,
and openly show that their intentions and
acts are such as may we'll become the
true and loyal citizens OF country who's,
freedom and integrity they will maintain
against all enemies whatsoever, and be
fore the Dyes of all the world.

Ba- Since the invasion of Pennsylvania
by the rebel forces, the Jacobin journals
including the ",Smmt Machine," have been
engaged in circulating all kinds of absurd
and ridiculous stories for the purpose of
injuring the Democratic party. As they
expect TO Operate upon the credulity of
the masses, insulting, by their conduct. the
intelligence of the people they hope to
deceive, they do not hesitate to manufac'
ture and give publicity to rumors which
they know have not the slightest founda.
ton in truth. 1t is almost useless to at.
tempt a denial of these SANDERS; be-
cause no sooner is one Of them nailed, like
base coin to the counter, before another is
fabricated and given to the public. One
of the current reports stacted for political
effect by the unscrupulous Jacobins, was
as imaginary conversation between the
rebel General and the District Attorney
of Franklin county. This story is dis
posed of by the latter gentlemaniu letter
which we lay before Gus readers WITH great
pleasure:
CHAMBERsBURG, June %, 1868.
Editors of The Age: notice in sever
al papers what purports to be converse
ton between Gen. jenkins and the Dis.
trict Attorney of Franklin county, during
the recent occupation of this place by the
rebel forces.
1t is alleged. that, among other things,
the general said "You are a regular Cop
perhead- Lincoln ought to have hung you
ind the rest of the Copperheads long ago.
/ We would not tolerate any such men in
the Southern Confederacy. We respect
those who are against us in the North
much more than the Copperheads.

gSg~ The Smut Machine is very fond OF
abiding to Democrats as being of "cop-
perish tinge." We do not understand the
sense of the allusion, unless it be the de.
sire of its abolition disunion editor to
bring the Democracy, who are white men
and for the rights of white men, as nearly
as possible up to the hue of its own black
skinned party.
We observe by the late speech of Wen
dell Phillips, who is the cat-nep Dr.'s fil'
leader, that the Abolitionists are going
"to the fullest extent" into the manutac
ture of persons Of "cOpperish tinge."-
Hurra for the woolly copperheads.
