the best sacrifices in the darkest hour Of
Liberty. They have struck the keynote
TO future triumph which awaits them as
victory has ever awaited the final efforts of
the good and brave. The issues Of the
contest just passed are everything issues.
They will recur, over and over again, in
the future history of mankind, for they
lie at the very basis of popular Govern

The Democracy of Ohio, as will be
proven, have kept their own ranks un-
broken in the conflict they retire from
the field in good ORDER to prepare for a
more formidable onset. Let the expert

future. Let every implement of political
warfare be FURNISHED anew, and where the
proper energies and means are wanted let
them be at once fully supplied.
The work Of the Nations redemption
is still on our hands. 1t must be accom-

The situation.

Again the Army Of the Potomac has
been turned from its advance on Rich
mond and forced back on Manassas plains.
LEE's army is pressing MEApE's rear, and
a fight on the classic ground of Bull Run
is imminent, perhaps in progress at this
hour. 1t is also stated that Gen. MEADE
is to share the fate Of former commanders
of the Army Of the Potomac, and give
way to General SicKLEs, who will take
chief command. IL this report prove
true. we confess fearful forebodings as to
the safety of the army; Efor whatever quail
tiles General SIcKLrs may possess as a
military man, raised to position from civil
life, he certainly is not fitted TO fill the
place Of Mcclellan OF MEADE and
certainly not competent TO cope with the
willy strategist and accomplished military
leader of the Confederate army-General

Hon. q. L. VaIIandIgham--The

Now that the election is over, and calum-

some compunctions Of c1nseence, and In the

The Democracy at Last VICtOrI-
OuR'

The contest between truth and error,
through all the centuries past, has been
an exceedingly difficult one, victory and
defeat, here and there, alternating between
them. 1t has been contest whose vary
ing fortunes have decided the fate of
Churches and States, the breaking down
of one to-day and the setting up of another
tomorrow. These alterations we regard
as the ordeal by which great principles,
which shall live forever, are tested and
purified; and we are taught to believe that,
in the end, whatever is true and beautiful
and good will achieve an enduring tri-
umph. The Heroes of thought and the
Heroes of action, wherever their impress
is made, have all struggled up through
difficulties and dangers to the eminence
whose summit is radiant with deathless
fame And every country in every age
has its struggles and its heroes.
We stand in the midst of one of those
grand struggles which are ever so fruitful
to the Historian and the Philosopher.
Between the indistructible principles of
Liberty and the ever-recurring spirit OF
Despotism, conflict is now going on in
America, and, especially, in the adhering
States of the Union. On the one side
are arrayed the time-honored Democratic
party whose history is co-eval with that
of the Government and whose labors have
so richly contributed to the spread ot
liberal ideas ON this continent on the
other, and in perfect antagonism. is tn,

What the TuIe Of Araham Lin
coin has Done.

Says the Chicago Times: The first aboli-
ton administration has supplied us with many
things OF which we were never before possessed.
1t has given us thousands of widows and Or
phans, filled our streets with manned and
broken human beings; erected for our accom-.
mediation numberess military prisons; fur
nished us lavishly with military authorities,
spies and informers after the manner of Ans
tria; has blessed us with an army Of tax.gath-
esers and hungry officials, who consume the
substance of the people; has initiated us into
the experience Of II stamp act, ard entailed
upon 1s a national debt to which that of Eng
land will soon be a mere circumstance has
given the national capital all the airs and gilt
ter of a court has demonstrated that Ameri-
ca can excel the world IN thevery and cor
ruptiou, as she does in fast yachts and reap.
ing machines and has finally enabled us to
realize the beauties of military conscription
These are a few only of the favors for which
we are indebted to this abolition sdministra-
ton, and for which we hope all are truly
thankful As an offset to these desirable
gifts, it has relieved us of the habeas corpus,
the right of trial by jury and other mediaeval
superlluities, for which we should all be still
more grateful

''Stand -FaIter not a Mo-
ment''

No Democrat should be discouraged Ivy
the result of the election on Tuesday-no
tyac Democrat will be. Our noble cham
pions, VALLANDIGBAM and PuGH, have re-
ceived larger vote than any defeated
candidates for Governor and Lieutenant
Governor ever before received in this State.
Nearly two hundred thousand Democrats,
under the most bitter and unrelenting per-
secution ever heaped upon men for opinions
sake,-braving all threats Of violence, all
taunts and ieers-marched in solid phalanx
to the polls and cast there ballots for
Constitutional Liberty, and against the
exercise of arbitrary power. They were
defeated, it is true, but they have met with
defeat before. We fought for principle
1t still lives, in the heart of every Demo-
crat, and will live on forever. The prin-
ciples of Democracy are not ephemeral-
thoy are as lasting as the crock of ages"
As long as we have u country, there will
be Democratic party, ever struggling for
equal and exact justice to ali men of what
ever religious or political persuasion, and
clinging to the Constitution as the ship
wrecked mariner clings to the last plank
when night and the tempest surrounds
him.
Again we say, "stand frm-f4lter not a
moment" We can find consolation for
our temporary defeat in the consciousness
that we have labored for the right, and for
what we honestly believed for the best in
terests of the country, and in the full as
surance that time, the great arbiter, will
vindicate us before the Nation. Let us all
take fresh courage and remember that
after the battle of Thermopylp, in which
tue three hundred Spartans under LEoNIDAs
persisted, it seemed that the last hope of
ancient Hellas was gone. Yet the disaster
was retrieved, and Greece saved at Sal
amis and above all the bones of those
who fell at the fatal pass where the Asiatic
met Greek was raised monument with
the inscription "We lie here IN obedience
to our country" Let the conservative
men of the nation place the inscription
over the defeated friends of nationality in
Ohio; give us what credit they may fol
the fight we have made against Abolition
ism, Despotism, deception fraud and
money, and rest assured that iSalGmi,
shall folloDa T2ermopyla.

The GIRLS WILL TALE.-Here is awarning
to ladies who talk too much:
A Partisan banker, very wealthy and gener-
GUS, was engaged to marry young lady of
high rank, and everything was prepared The
bridegroom had sent in the corbelIe, which
was extremely rich, the diamonds alone being
worth over two hundred thousand francs
Wishing to enjoy the qualification of his bride,
he followed close on the heels of his present,
and finding no one in the parlOr he ensconced
himself in the window behind the curtains
Presently a whole bevy of girls huttered into
the room, and all began talking at once "Oh,
did you ever see such beautiful corbeIle p
Louisa is lucky; what gentlemanly husband
she will have. She oughtto be happy, to be
sure; but do you know what she told me lust
now2 why, that she would rather have the cor
belle without the gentleman who gave it.
1T cant be--she never said so. "She GER
tainly did, and there she is--asl1 her for your
self Louise, didn't you tell me You would
rather have the corbele alone, without Mr..

said Mr.. -, coming forward, lyon shall not

splendid present under his arm, and walked
of, leaving the ladies in an embarrassment
