Braxen Faced Audaci.y.

Now, we say the same Democratic
party have been the real Union party in
the past and they are the real Union
party now. Whilst they controlled the
affairs of government. no secession or
rebellion was possible. They eRcoua-
tered the most implacable hatredsand OPP
position; but they wisely prevented Sc
eession aud rebellion and avoided civil
war. II was only when power went out
OF their hands aad other counsels pre-
vailed that these calamities fell upon the
country.-Rockport Democrat
For cool impudence and undisVuissa
falsehood We have never seen the above
exeelled.
There Is not q man, woman, or child
on the continent, that does not know
that the present rebellion commenced
under a Democratic administration.
that seven States, or more, had seeded
previous to the 9Th of March 1861, and
no effort wss made by that Democratic
administration to prevent the one or
suppress tAs other. Nay, mora cabinet
ministers under that sans. Democratic
administration assisted in planning and
carrying con tbs rebellion.
Had not the Democratic administra-
ten been composed of traitors, With q
majority of sJnpatizers with traitors in
the Congress then sitting, there would
have been no rebellion--no secession.
Tbs man who could write such bra
zen faced lie, as contained in the sxtraei
quoted from the ROckport Democrat can
have neither self respect nor a decent
regard for the opinions of his fellow
men.
