antimasonic excitement until they carry the

became apparent they work the whole thing

immutable principles of truth, will SIT and

rights, and more than that see that they get

Constitution Of the l'Oastle."

WHEREAS, We sincerely and truly believe
that the Supreme Creator and Governor OF
the Universe, holds each Of US, individually,
responsible for our actions, therefore, we
hold that all persons should worship God ac-
cording to the dictates of their own conscIen-
ces We believe the Bible to be the words
Of Divine inspiration and the fountain of
Wisdom and without obedience to It's teach
ings no people or nation can be happy or
prosperous.
And Whereas, the Founder OF our Religion
proclaimed that His Kingdom was not Of
this world, and enioined on us to render unto
God the things that are God 5 and unto Ce-
sar the things that are Caesar ; We, there
fore hold that Church and State should al
ways remain separate. We, therefore, will
make all honorable efforts 10 have the Cos
pei preached in the Pulpit and Politics pro
claimed from the Stump. And believe the
Constitution of the United States to be the
best form of government ever devised by
human intellect, we hold 1t sacred, second
only TO the Bible.
And Whereas, Ours is a mission of love,
neace and good will toward all men, we de-
sire equal and exact justice TO all men OF
whatever state or persuasion, religious or
political. We will, therefore support the
State Governments in all their rights, as the
most competent administration for our. do
mestic concerns and the surest bulWark a
gainst anti-repubIican tendencies. We also
pledge ourselves, earnestly and truly, to aud,
to the extent of our ability, in preserving

the General Government in all It's constitu-
tionai vigor, and DO ali in our power to hand
it down. IrnimpaIred to posterity.
THE FOUR CORNER STONES on
which we build the Democratic Castle are
as follows, viz:
Ist. a jealous care of fair election by the
people, and an absolute acquiescenee In the
decision Of the majority.
%. The supremacy Of the civil over the
military power.
Sd. Freedom of Religion, Freedom of the
Press and Speech, and Freedom of Person
under the protection of the Habeas Corpus.
4th Trial by jury, impartially selected.

In looking over a speech Of Voorhees, of
Indiana, one of Jeff Davis snorthern niggers,
we see he asserts that the administration
has never by word, sign, or look offered a
peaceful solution of this conflict. Now he
must be an ignorant man indeed who does
not know that President Lincoln repeatedly
called on the rebels to lay down their arms
unimpaired; but it is by such wilful lies
northern tories hope to deceive the people
and thus elect some one as President who
will make peace by yielding to the rebels
all they claim, even if it be Washington
City and Maryland

rebel citizens in the vicinity must hereafter
nav SO 600 to the widow or relative of the
murdered man.

THE LONG AGO.

On the deep retiring shore,
Frequent pearls of beauty lie,
Where the passion waves of yore
Fiercely beat and mounted high.
Sorrows that are sorrows still,
Lose the bitter taste of woe;
Nothing altogether i'll.
In the griefs of long ago.
