EXCELLENT NoNINATIoN. The DemOc-
racy Of Nevada have nominated DavidE.
Buell., formerly Sheriff of this county, for
Governor. He is Democrat Of the good
old school, and his election will give
character and importance to the new State
and contribute to her prosperity. He is
honest, fearless, energetic and capable,
and has proved his devotion to his coun.
try on the field of battle. His reputation
as private citizen and public officer is
stainless. lie is emphatically lone of the
people" self made mar, "a man of tire
less energy, Ofgreat decision of character
and of keen sagacity. He is not a dema-
gogue, not political adventurer, chang
ing his principles to suit the times, not
q time.server. In prosperity and adver.
sity he is always the same, q frank, fear.
less, unwavering Democrat The citizens
Of Nevada will reflect credit upon them.
selves and honor upon their new State by
slecting David E. Buel Governor by a
sweeping majority.
The mountain Democrat., 1864-10-15

AMONG the specifications on which Mr..
Tallandigham7 was tried by a Military
Commission, was one CHARGING him with
declaring in a public speech that this is a
war for the freedom of the blacks, which,
says the charge. "he well knew did aid,
comfort and encourage those in arms
against the Federal Government, and
could but induce in his hearers distrust
of their own Government, sympathy for
those in arms against it, and disposi.
tion to resist the laws of the land" For
saying this was war to free the blacks
he was banished by tho President ; yet
in his Niagara letter Mr.. Lincoln has gone
further. and not only virtually admitted
the truth Of Vallandigham's statement,
but proclaimed that "the abandonment
of slavery" must precede negotiations for
peace. IfVallandigham's sentence was
just, what should be the punishment In.
dicted on Mr.. Lincoln ?
The mountain Democrat., 1864-10-15


The ONLY UNION PARrY.-It is ad-
mitted by all familiar with the history Of
our country, that there is but one genu.
inc Union party in tho countryside
Democratic party-and there will be but
one and upon the unity and vigor and
unconquerable spirit of that party aud
upon its resumption of power in major.
ity of the Nrothern States, depends,
vastly more than the operations of the ar.
mics in the field, the salvation of the
Union. The defeat of that party in this
contest, is the death. .knell of tho Union.
The South has confidence in its honesty,
fairmness and patriotism, and would re-
turn to the Union were it in power; the
South has nothing to expect but intoler.
ance, injustice and outrage from the Alb
olition party, and it will never return to
the Union-and it is the extreme of folly
to talk about forcing it back-while that
party is in power. Real Union men
must, to be consistent, support the Dem.
ocratic party those who do not, want
the Union destroyed.
The mountain Democrat., 1864-10-15

PRorD REFLECTION. is proud re.
Election for Democrats that the Democrat
ic party has been laboring for years tc
prevent and arrest the evils with which
the country is now so fearfully struggling
All good men know and appreciate this
fact The overthrow of the Democratic
party was the signal for disruption, for
on its ruins was erected . sectional fac.
ton, pledged to make war upon the insti.
tutions Of one portion of the Union. A
return Of the Democratic party to power
would be the greatest step towards peace
and prosperity. That party that labored
so faithfully to prevent the evil is best
calculated to conduct the country through
the evil. 1t is folly and madness to sup.
pose that Lincoln can or even desires to
restore the Union. His policy and his
party forbid tho thought. It's restoration
must come through the Democratic party.
and those who really wish to see a. re.
stored Union must support the Democrat.
ic party.
