THEIR TAcIcs.-The Lane party are
evidently making but . feeble attempt
to aid their cause By speeches. They
are merely thrown in for show. Bat
- their agents travel around. they
place liberal sums Of money 10 the hands
of men who push around and work. and
drum up voters on election day. These
men get the psy. and 10 rsturn do their
part to dups the honest voters. Their
brass and iupudsucs they call ;.fasass.
and are paid becauas they have the fses to
drag up voters to the polls. frequently to
against their honest convictions. Voters.
these fellows receive handsome sums for
your sotss. They cell your votes for .
price. and pocket the money. They make
the profits. and you do the voting for
them. In due time you will zee whom
they are. Their very actions will tell
you that they we're paid price. because
they agreed to control your votes. You
srs counted as sheep. and these fellows
are paid for driving you, to market.
When one Of them comes to tell you how
you must vote. just say TO- him that it is
your vote that is to count. and you want
him to fork over your share Of the money.
Or. If you like to be sold ont by these
traders in free mems votes. just shut your
eyes and stick 10 the ticket. g srs

but were merely seeking to make money!
This is an unkind mistake. They were
merely striving to promote temperance

Gs- Little by little the people are learn
ing to appreciate the worse than dew
ilish designs and monstrous intents of
the organizers of the great revolt in our
midst. The mass of the people have been
slow to believe that it was possible that
men who were leaders in the Democratic
party could really desire to overturn this,
our Constitutional Government, and erect
monstrous despotism on its ruins. To
aim at such a result pre-supposes such in
finite baseness and malice-such venom
GUS enmity against the common rights
OF man, that the charge of such conspI-
racy for that deliberate purpose was
deemed absolutely incredible.
But day by day new facts come to light
which in the aggregate cannot fail to carry
conviction to the minds of those who have
doubted the perversity and wickedness OF
their former political associates. The true
Democrats of the country have begun to
comprehend the taithlessness of their for
mer leaders, and to comprehend the fact
that for thirty years and more they have
been organizing Southern public opinion,
not for the conservation of negro slavery,
for they always knew that TO be sa'e-but
for the absolute overthrow and destruction
of all human rights, South, North. ana eY-
arywhere throughout the world. This
idea is at last making its way TO the con-
viction of the most prejudced and blinded
of the old Democracy. They are daily
imoibing the truth Of this idea and as
rapidly rs they realize it, they spurn the
organization which, through its leaders,
would chain the world beneath the heel of
despots forever. Preiudices of lifelong
growth are not easily removed. Passions
easily allayed. But these men in the end,
when they do make up their minds that
they have been purposely betrayed by
their leaders, invariably prove the most
relentless and thorough in their purpose to
stamp the traitors out of existence.
1t is among the Southern men, who have
been most deluded, who have suffered
most from the crime of treason, who have
looked its terrors and hideousness straight
in the eye, that we already begin to find the
sternest resolve to consign both the traitors
and the chief support of the treason to
political and social perdition. They are
rapidly overcoming not merely their old
prejudices, but, still more than that, the
inveterate social prejudices which grew
and strengthened with each passing year,
until it made men, who had fall faith in
the right of the white man to freedom,
quite as firm in their belief that the neyro's
sole right was that of seryitude, with
chains, and lashes and tortures unspeak-
able Tor his perpetual lot. Even this preu-
dice, all the more inveterate because of
ITS horrid perversity, is, at last, rapidly be-
ing rooted out, and the men who have been
most anxious to sustain the evil, are be-
coming resolute for its utter determination.
1t is natural it should be thus, That
facts prove the tide. to be taking this
course is one OF the most encouraging
signs of the progress of truth and the in
ternal rottenness OF the rebel cause.
