Matter. for Yolers TO Remember.

People who have votes to cast at the Novenl-
Der election, win do well before casting, saws
the North AmericHk to remember that the high
price of gold is the work of COpperhead bankers
who have got control of the gold market and
holdit. s s ,
Remember that by that control all the prices
Of dry goods, hardware groceries, provisions,
etc, have been swelled enormously.
Remember that by the same control the vol
uIne of our debt has been necessarily increased
to meet those expenses, so that we have debt
Of near two millions where otherwise We should
not have had more than one
Remember that the man who has led in these
operations is the Chairman of the Democratic
National COMMITTEES.
Remember that the same control has reduced
the apparent value of national paper currency,
and thereby forced workmen to strike for high
er wages.
Remember that, IN consequence OF this de-
probation of the national currency by copper
head operators, the interest in gold on our ma
tional debt has been augmented.
Remember that, to meet all these embarrass-
rnents, taxes have been necessarily levied on
everything of value.
Remember that the effect of these emSarrass-
ments is to check commerce, arrest building i'm
preyements, reduce the actual value of fixed in
comes, depreciate the national credit both at
home and abroad, and encourage the rebellion.
Remember that the candidate in whose in
terest all this has been done Is George B. Nc
Olellan.
/ Remember that so soon as the November
election shall be ended, and President Lincoln
reelected, this conspiracy viii be exploded, and
prices must come down like collapsed balloon.
THE PEACE THE MUsKET WILL GIVE.
Gen JoHS CooHRAxE lifted his audience to
their feet in Philladelphis, and received an ova-
ton from them in response to his declaration
that the peace the Rebels would get from US
would be that which the musket gives to con-
quered host. He said:
At Chicago there were gentlemen in the livery
of War Democrats. They were modest, for the
pressure was upon them. A very little war,
they begged Of Vallandigham: very little will
answer us. "No," says Vallandighan, I'VE want
peace peacei"
How is it in the feld3 When the private
bivouscs in the night does he say to his musket,
'wel have a little peace in the mOrningf" If
he did the musket would be too much ofa peace"
for him. Do the officers talk of little peace2
No. They retire to the sound of war, and
when they rise the matin trumpet sounds the
charge Ofwar. TTumultu0us cheers They are
there to fight for the country. They abhor the
uniform peace-gun at Chicago. The war Is near
w closed. The Rebellion = at lts last gasp
lis resources are almost gone. The E1GBssasr
says @the enemy is gathering about Us. Rich
mond will be takenl" lDeafeni1g applause
An officer, who surrendered to Sheridan, illus
trated this. Throwing his sword at the feet of
the Proyost- Marshal, he said: aThe Confeder-
acy has gone to h-n The men won't fight:
neither viii L" The rebel community is iall-
ing away by piecemeal, and at last the head and
front Of the Rebellion, the State Of Geoagia,
make overtures to return to the Union. And
now make peacel Loud shouts of @NeverT'l
All the resources Of ofnegotiation must first be ex
tract the war" There uoH Be peace, butt win
be that peace which the mnsket gives to the
conquered host. That peace is now at our
doors, And it is for yo1 to declare IN your
omnipOtence that there shall be no peace save
that attached in glorious ensigns to your stand
ards in the field.
