Push On the Celu M n.

In 1874 the Committee to inform Col.
Polk OF his nomination, says an exchange
made visit to the Hermitage. Dur
ing their stay, the old hero extended that
whole soled hospitality for which he was
distinguished, and gave them words OF
encouragement. AS they were sbou, to
leave he clasped them by the hand, and
as he bade them farewell, he eaid. Gen.
tlemen, the cause Of the Democracy is
with youj put your shoulders to the
wheel, pray God for success, and push
on the column" These words were the
battle cry Of the Democracy in that cam
prign. They sounded like the living
words of jackson throughout the nation.
They put their shoulders to the wheel,
they worked with an inspired energy, and
they did push on the column to victory
Democrats, the voice Of jackson speaks
to you in thunder tones and with an earn
est meaning. Treason is plotting in
council, and disunion stalks out boldly in
frenzy, and threatens destruction to those
cherished institutions to The preservation
Of which Jefferson and jackson devoted
their lives The times call for action.--
We must work. Let every Democrat up
and "put his shoulder to the wheel and
push on the column Ohio Patriot.

John BrOugh, the Abolition
Candidate for Governor of
Ohio, has Publicly Unfurled
the Banner of Disunion!
Your obi servant,
WILLIAM WHITING.

He declares TO the people of the State
and the nation, that if elected Governor
and any of the seeding States lay down
their arms and desire to return to the
Union under the old Constitution, with
all its guarantees just as our fathers made
them, he would use his Gubernatoriai
power to prevent their return. In his
speeches at Marietta and Cleveland he
declared that he was for war until slave.
ry was abolished.
Such is the position Of the Abolition
nominee for Governor, and all who
support Brough stand upon the same
platform. 1t is tor the entire destruction
of the old Union, and the abrogation o.
every clause in the Constitution which
does not suit their purposes. They are
disunionists; they now proclaim it open
ly and above board, and what is worse,
they intend to protract the war until
slavery is overthrown, regardless OF all
their promises and all constitutions.
They intend to keep our soldiers into the
field, and call millions more, not to re-
store the Union, but to abolish slavery.
This is the doctrine Of the party. and
every shoddy contractor. Federal office.
holder, treasury sucker, and fanatical
rattle brain in the State, joins in the
cry, "War, war !" not to restore the
Union but to aid the poor niger and
give them a chance to make money,
Men who vote for this state Of things
this fall must not complain in the hour
of calamity. If taxes are piled Up
mountain high, and their sons are one
after another called to the field from yeal
to year until all are gone, and their prop
erty mortgaged for generations, let them
not complain, for on all such voters
rests the responsibility of protracting q
terrible war for the mere purpose of feed
ing and clothing the negroes. The wal
for the overthrow of the rebellion i:

to the rebel States. Come back, take
all your rights" many of them woult
return within three months. But Lin
coin, Brough, and all the tribe of Abo
litionists who stay at home and urgt
others to go to war, say to them, "W,

f trine is now boldly promulgated, an
t he people should wake up to its ruinou
aud destructive consequences, before it
I too late. Let these wicked men continu

: troyed. The South will become desolatt

Patriotism.

Perhaps some people don't know what
patriotism means. To such we would
commend the following paragraph, from
the Providence Post. If, after reading it,
they do not understand the meaning of
the term, we sincerely think they can
never learn
"The city of Worcester is the big Abb
olition centre of Massachusetts,. It is
the home of Higginson, and has been
running over with a certain kind of pa
triotism ever since the war commenced.
Seven hundred men were recently drafted
in this city OF Worcester. Let US look
for them. One hundred and two have
never reported, and are now deserters.-
-Four hundred and sixteen were exempted.
against one hundred and eighty-two ac-
cepted. OF one hundred and eighty two
who were accepted the army gets just
sighteen men. The rest pay their three
hundred or get substitutes |! Smart old
town is Worcestor!"

General Jackson.

Gen. Jackson said "the Constitution
cannot be maintained, nor the Union
preserved by the mere power of the Fed
eral Government. The foundations of
the people; in the security it gives to
life, liberty, character and property in
every part of the country" Yet Tin the
face of this God dinspired declaration, we
hear the Abolitionists non claiming to be
jackson men, and at the same time
breathing fire and sword not only to
those in arms and all who temporarily
submit in the Southern States to their
power, but to every man in the non-se-
cedcd States who does not mouth the
same language and vote the same ticket
with themselves Can such desperation,
inconsistency. and falsehood deceive the
lowest creature that walks?

Freedom of ELECTIONS.

The Louisville Democrat in 81 eaking
oi the election in Kentucky says.
"He who would make use of force to
prevent the freedom of election is q
traitor to all the principles OF civil lib
erty. To accomplish temporary OBJ
iect, he would invoke power which
will destroy not only the Liberties of his
fellow citizens. but eventually his own.
The horse, in the fable, to wreak his ven
geance on the stag. permitted the man to
saddle him, and was ridden ever after
till the day of his death. We consider
ourselves superior to our Engl ances
tors six hundred years ago; but many
men in this age may learn lesson from
the times of Edward the First 'Anc
because elections ought to be free,' say
statute of that time. the king com
mandeth, upon great forfeiture, that no
man. by force of arms, nor by NAL
ice or menacing, shall disturb any to
make free elections.

The Vermont ElectiOn---Great
Democratic Gains.

The Burlington, (Vermont.) Sentinel
Of the 4th inst, says that the returns of
the election held in that State ON the 1st
inst, are sufficient to show a very hand
some Democratic gain upon the vote Of
last year. The Democrats have proba-
bly, cast twelve thousand votes to less
than three thousand last year. This has
been done with very imperfect organi-
zstion and scarcely any exertion. The
Democrats have elected two Senators,
Cham berlin, in CALEDONIA. and Bean in
Orange county, and perhaps Houghton in
Bennington county. The Democrats will
have from twenty five to thirty members
in the House. By another year, even the
Green Mountain State may be redeemed
