A Stirring Appeal for the Country against
its Destroyers,

The Hon, Levi Bishop, of Detroit, made q
good speech lately at Cincinnati The follow
ing is the closing part of it:
HOW TO SAVE TIE COUNTRY
Then, finally, what can we do? What can we
do to save the country, the governments and con-
stitutional liberty? 1t is a momentous question.
There is but one only way to do it. | wish /
could thunder it in every ear on the continent.
That one way is, BRING THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY
BACK INTO POWER This is the only thing that
can do it. To save the country is the mission
of the Democracy
Then let subordinate questions be laid aside.
Let individual considerations be ignored Let
personal claims be passed over Let former
divisions and heart burnings be forgotten Let
war and peace Democrats strike hands together.
Let Democrats and conservatives embrace each
other.
Let every Democratic association. every reso
luton, every speech, wish, thought, word, every
banner, and, above ALL every vote, point to
this one result-bring the Democracy back into
power The people are ready for it, for three
years OF Abolitionism, such as we have had,
IS enough to cure any nation of that disease.
Let us, then, not disagree about platforms

"We have no right to expect perfection il,
this world, bat we have right to look. for con-
/ sistency." so says Hannah Moore Now there
IS one singular thing connected with the aboli-
ton efforts that deserves notice, and goes far
to shake our faith IN the philanthropic and be-
nevolent feelings generally supposed to influence
the emanclPationlsts; and that is, whenever the
milk ot human kindness is poured out upon the
| negro, there is corresponding outpouring of
vengeance upon something else: like the Cru
saders OF old, whose zeal for the recovery Of
the Holy Sepalchre was only equalled by their
terocny towards the Turks and Saracens
And 1t is worthy of record that the National
Assembly, when first moved by bowels of COM
passion to lIberate the slaves at St. DOMINGO
were dragging to the guillotine all that was de-
cent and respectable in France. And so IL will
be found, in every place, and among every peo-
pie that has undertaken the business of emaac,.
pttaop that there is at the same time an eaual
degree of venom poured outupon somethineelse.

precepts of peace and good will to all mankind

Mr.. EDITOR Il beg leave to avail myself Of the
columns of your independent paper to ask why it
is that Gov. Vance does not publish by proclGma
ton in the newspapers as other Governors do,
list of public officials in this State whose exemp-
ton he claims under act of CongressH
.TheNwant of this information puts many of these
officials to great trouble. saw to-day three con-
stables of Davidson county who were elected and
qualified last February, who had travelled some
40 or 90 miles to see Gov. Vance at Danbury where
he was speaking, 10 get him to do something to
protect them from being harraSsed by the enrolling
officers of Davidson county. He told them his OF.
flee was in Raleigh where he had Aids to attend to
his business, and they must go there.
Is not this intolerable, for the Governor to have
State officers hsrrassed by enrolling officers, and
put to the trouble and expense of going to Raleigh
to get exempt on account of the Governors negIi-
gence in publishing in the newspapers list of eg-
enpt officials? Or is this Intentional neglect in
order to play into the hands of Cod. Mallett by is
