ter; while Pendleton attempts TO cloak his
no less hostile sentiments with the profes.
sions of loyalty-the one an open public
enemy--the other an enemy in disguise
q spy, which the usages of war hang as n
felon: And the recent acceptance by Nc

high trusts aud favor he has received, pla-
ces him In the minds Of honest men far be-
low either. ia'
Nov let me lift the cloak Of Democracy
and show you the leaders OF the Chicago
convention. There Is Vallsndigham, the
martyr, as the faithful style him, but as
everybody knows, a convicted traitor. he
agrees TO all their doings, and moves that
tha- nomination of Mcclellan be declared
unanimous. There Is Fernando Wood and
Ben, his brother, authors Of the new gospel
Of Peace, and SSSmour. Ihese organised
and headed the mobs OF New York City 70

OF Genetaf Lee and bis aFmy, had they
NOT been Unexpectedly detained at Gettys-
EburE. There Il olds, and Cox, and Voor-
hees, and Marshal Kane, Who headed the
mobs OF Baltimore, and Alex. Long. There
is Auguste Belmont, the hhown agent for
the Confederate bond. holders in Europe,
and Chairman of the EAtitnRl Democratic
Committee, as the faithful iHtyle it, but in
fact, with George Sandeis B Co., at the
Clifton House, 1t is the nofthern branch Of
OF the great Rebel Conspiracy. This Bel
mont is intent on one thing, that is, 70 hx
things so that these bond shall be paid
the bottoms of the original signers having
fallen out THERE'S Dem Richmond and
Peter Caggar and others q their kind, who,
like Vultures, are alwRyS lowering wher-
ever desolation, disintegtAti and decom-
position are threAtened. Then the group
yonder, are the postTidaFs and telegraph
operators who conduct the communities
tions between this body aud George San
ders & Co., OF the Cllllon House. Aud
then that dim outline bf a man, sitting
yonder, is the shadow. Of all that remains
Of Amos Kendall, now demented and In
utter dotage. He was snee, you remember,
a member of General tackson's CAbinet-
Postmaster. General. Fearing such pro-
fauation Of the Of Democracy might
evoke the ghost OF It's iounder, and mind
full of the opinion. that spirit had OF Cal

people generally. ButI perceive you, ike
myself, are becoming Weary of the sight
Now, you perceive that every block that
enters into the pyramid of treason
except, perhaps, that nonentity, Amos
Kendall, is simon pure, with no
spot or blemish Of loylaty; and "Little
MacH has become fhooap stone. Now OF
whatever nature this last man 10 like every
other cap. stone, he must depend for sup

painful spectacle to lincoln and Johnson,
scornfnlly styled By these agents Of trea-
son and collectors Of rebel debts already
protested, "rhs Rail Splitter and Tailor"
Their contempt for these noble men shows
their contempt for our glorious institu-
tions, thai, have; e;enAbled them to rise from
these humble,s but useful and honorable
oallings, 70 thsproudest stations on earth.
They are Buch rivers and sewers as will
cleaTe down the lConfederacy and stitch
up It's winding sheet. They are fit illus.
trations OF the inestimable value Of our in-
stitutionsl The humblest boy in the land
can attain to the same proud eminence.
Aud we'll can these great and good
men exclaim to the Chicago renegades as
the celebrated Tristan Burgess did TO
John Randolph In the U. s. Senate, who
tainted him with having been born
cooper. nAye, sir" said that old "bald
Eagle tIand made the best barrels In
all Rhode Island, and the difference be-
tween me and the gentleman is, 1.-THE had
been born O cooper, he would have been q
cooper still." Having cast my first vote
for General jackson at the time he was
demolishing Calhoun and disqualification,
having supported Mr.. Douglas at the last
election, aud having never received nor
asked any faVors of the present Admins
trAtion, nor expect to, have nevertheless
been brought TO the belief that no man
living could have administered the Gov
erument, considering the unexampled diff.
culties and entertainments that have sur
rounded il, more honestly, more deyotedly
and more successfully than Mr.. Lincoln
has done. have ne doubt he will do 80
Iu future; and ifit shall please God at any
time to call him to higher sphere Of du-
ties, Mr., Johnson is the man to supply his
place. Besides, every truly loyal man
feels that the dignity Of the Government
| requires that since the rebellion was COM
menced professedly against Mr., Lincoln,
the rebels should be made 10 ground their
arms at his feet. This only Will properly
vindicate the government.

allured by the mere name OF Democracy,
which our opponents have stolen and goi
under as the other animal got under the

where the eminent Democrats, statesmen
and heroes of the General Jackson school,

Grams, Burnside, Logan, Dix, Meagher
sickIes, Mccall, Com. Fsrragut, and host
of others, whose names and deeds will IL
Illuminate the history Of the country and
the world, when the nsmes of this Chicago
